Why can some tokens maintain a continuous upward trend? The answer is quite simple—it's all about supply and demand.

From the supply side, the output from liquidity mining is inherently limited, and that's not all. The system destroys unproduced tokens daily, and participants also lose chips when they exit. In other words, the circulating tokens in the market are gradually decreasing.

Looking at the demand side, the situation is even more interesting. Purchasing related equipment is a buy-in, subsequent repurchases are buy-ins, account activation is also a buy-in, and promotional activities accelerate the entire process, resulting in a continuous influx of new buying pressure.

On one end, tokens are becoming increasingly scarce; on the other end, funds are continuously flowing in. This mismatch between supply and demand itself supports the upward movement of prices. Understanding this logic thoroughly allows for a clearer grasp of the market rhythm.

The supply and demand mismatch logic sounds great, but the key is that there must be enough new entrants to take over the position.

Supply and demand mismatch is indeed a good angle, but applying this logic to the real market always feels like something's missing... The destruction mechanism sounds good, but I'm worried that in the end, it'll just be a bunch of bagholders.

The imbalance of supply and demand is so extreme—fewer and fewer chips, yet more and more buyers. I am convinced of this logic.

The idea of supply and demand mismatch has been heard too many times. The key is to have a continuous influx of new blood; otherwise, it just becomes a game of pass-the-parcel.

Can supply and demand imbalance really pump the market? It sounds like a perfect story, but don't ask me why I always feel something's off.

Basically, it's just the big players controlling the market, using the old and worn-out logic of supply being low and demand being high.

ngl this supply squeeze play is basically a gas optimization chart waiting to happen... token scarcity + continuous buy pressure? that's the optimal window everyone misses

The theory of supply and demand mismatch sounds good, but the problem is that these types of projects usually don't last very long.
