Recently, the on-chain activity has indeed become more lively. Watching the market's increased engagement, I also discovered a few promising project directions. However, precisely because of this, I am even more grateful that I didn't blindly follow the trend this time.

The套路 on the SOL chain has been thoroughly exposed—claim liquidity first, then develop and sell, take a quick profit and run. When retail investors chase high, they become the bagholders. Things aren't much better on BSC either, with retweets to hype up the scene and critical withdrawals. This combination leaves little room for retail investors. As for those pre-sale projects, they claim oversubscription and create a sense of scarcity, only to find that all positions are still in their hands—it's all just a setup.

Thinking about if I had followed the hype or used a main account to jump in back then, I would not only have lost money but also gained a reputation for "product promotion failure." The market is full of套路, and a moment of carelessness can turn you into a韭菜. So now, my strategy is to observe more, think more, and stay cautious of those dazzling project cases. Don't rush to go all in.

Good grief, it's the same old trick again. I'm already tired of SOL over there, and retail investors are still dreaming when devs sell out. This wave of the market has indeed trapped many people. Those who follow the trend probably haven't had a good ending. Patience and calmness are the keys. Anyway, if the project can't run, just keep observing.

The correct way to make big money quietly is like this: watch the excitement but don't jump in, wait until the tricks of cutting leeks are exposed before considering. This wave, I also have the mentality of a power bill enthusiast; anyway, as long as I don't go all-in, I won't die. Let those who call the shots go first and take the bait. I've seen through the SOL tricks long ago; dev sells one set after another. I'm just sitting by, counting money and watching the show. The BSC pre-sale bunch, hype, pump, and cancel; the show is full of effects, but I didn't participate. This is the real secret to making money. Sometimes the biggest gain is controlling yourself from going all-in. Once you realize this, you can basically survive and exit.

Really, I'm already tired of the rug pull tricks on SOL, and people are still getting wrecked every day... Compared to those calling signals, I prefer to be a silent observer. Anyway, what's the point of rushing to all-in now? The market is like this; it looks lively but it's all traps. Being cautious is definitely the right move.

Yeah, this wave of SOL tricks has really been played out, well said. By the way, I've seen those dev sell projects a few times, and it's really obvious at a glance. Agreed, it's better to think more before acting, don't get cut too badly. It seems everyone has learned to be smart now, which is the right attitude to stay alive and leave this market. The pre-sale scarcity hype is no longer believed; it's all been exposed. All in what? Staying alert is the key to surviving longer.

The striking rationality is admirable, but honestly, there are still many people falling for this trick. This wave of the market is just filtering out who can survive to the next round; most will have to pay tuition fees.
