Recently, a Meme coin on Solana experienced a massive crash. A large holder sold off 20.1 million tokens in one go, causing the price to plummet from $0.019 to $0.005, a drop of 74%. This is not just a normal correction; it’s a complete liquidity exhaustion.
What’s even more heartbreaking is that this big holder also lost 56.1%, nearly $300,000 just gone. If someone who can become a whale loses this much, what does it tell us? He must have sensed danger signals and decisively cut his losses.
Looking deeper, this incident reflects the fate of the altcoin market—speculative tokens with zero fundamentals, whose liquidity entirely depends on participant enthusiasm. Once big funds withdraw, retail investors become the final bagholders. This flash crash serves as a warning bell to those still dreaming of getting rich overnight.
How to survive longer? First, don’t expect whales to wait for you. They cut their losses without hesitation; your wishful thinking will only deepen your trap. Second, setting stop-loss levels can truly save your skin. Sell when the price drops below your preset point—minimize losses to win. This is more effective than any technical analysis. Third, stay away from coins with zero fundamentals that rely solely on hype. Invest your money where you understand and can sleep peacefully, not in a casino-like account.
In fact, every crash teaches the same lesson: greed pays tuition. The big holder who sold is not cowardly; he’s the clearest-headed. In the crypto world, only those who survive can have a chance to turn things around.

Big investors dare to cut losses even at a loss of 300,000, what are we retail investors still dreaming about...
The stop-loss line is really a lifesaver. I didn't believe it before and held on through a 74% drop before I understood.
The moment liquidity dries up is when retail investors take over the position. You have to learn to read the signals.
It's really just the price of greed. No one will wait for you at the peak.
Being able to stay alive is more important than anything else. Less loss means more wins.
These coins with no fundamental basis should have been avoided long ago. I now only deal with what I can understand.

A big holder can lose 300,000 and still walk away intact, but what about retail investors? They've already had their accounts wiped out. This is the real truth of the crypto world.
---
Another mass exodus, politely called stop-loss, but harshly it's the prelude to them cutting your leeks.
---
Coins with solid fundamentals like zero still dare to go all-in, serves them right for being washed out.
---
Every time they say they learn their lesson, but next time they still rush in. I just want to see when people will truly change.
---
Big holders who can cut losses and walk away are indeed clear-headed, but the problem is most people simply don't have that awareness.
---
A 74% drop—that's the result of not setting a stop-loss, a bloody lesson.
---
I haven't touched meme coins on Solana for a long time; the casino-style gameplay is too obvious.
---
For those still dreaming of getting rich overnight, just look at this case and you'll wake up.

Large investors cutting losses is nothing, the key is that retail investors must learn to run away.
---
A 74% drop... this is true bloodshed, luckily that guy still has some brains.
---
Stop-loss is really a lifesaver; many people die because of overconfidence.
---
Zero's fundamentals-based coins, no matter how high they are pumped, are just illusions; they will eventually return to reality.
---
Being able to walk out alive is indeed more important than anything else; the premise of a comeback is not being caught in a dead end.
---
Those who say they want to bottom fish, nine out of ten probably end up as the last bagholders.
---
Why can’t some people learn? This kind of thing happens year after year.
---
When big funds withdraw, retail investors truly become the chives; liquidity is something that can disappear instantly.
---
The lesson from $560,000... greed is insatiable, like a snake swallowing an elephant; the tuition fee in the crypto world is not cheap.
---
I just can't understand why some people must stir up chaos in meme coins.

300,000 dollars to cut just like that, this is what a big player should look like—much more clear-headed than those retail investors who stubbornly hold on.
---
Another feast of cutting leeks, meme coins really should be extinct.
---
Basically, it's a game of liquidity exhaustion. When big funds withdraw, you become the last scapegoat.
---
It's good if this incident can discourage a batch of people. Less detours, right?
---
Stop-loss lines have really saved me several times. Now I only dare to get in after setting them up.
---
Big players have already lost 56%, and some still expect to double? Dream on.
---
Coins with no fundamentals should have already cooled off, but unfortunately, people keep pouring money in.
---
Looking at this kind of news, I only have one feeling: luckily, I distanced myself from these shitcoins long ago.
---
Those purely speculative coins—I've seen too many such flash crashes this year. Have they all learned their lesson?
---
Being able to walk out of the crypto world alive is more valuable than any return.

$300,000 saying it's a loss and just losing it, this is what it means to truly understand stop-loss
---
Meme coins are just a game of hot potato; once the music stops, no one can run away
---
Big players cut losses without hesitation, retail investors are still holding and waiting for a rebound, how can their mentality not explode
---
The term liquidity exhaustion sounds terrifying; frankly, it means no one wants it anymore
---
Those still gambling for overnight riches should wake up after seeing this case
---
The harshest thing isn't a 74% drop, but playing while knowing you don't understand this stuff at all
---
Buying coins with no fundamentals is pure gambling; who can be blamed?
---
People who set stop-loss lines actually live longer; this isn't mysticism, it's a bloody lesson
---
In the crypto world, being able to walk away intact makes you a winner; don't expect to double your money
---
Big players losing 56% can still decisively cut losses; their psychological resilience is truly exceptional

A big holder can decisively cut losses when losing 300,000, while we retail investors hold on and wait for doubling. The gap is really huge.
Cutting losses is painful, but continuing to hold is just asking for death.
It's another day of being cut again. Can we be smarter next time...
Basically, coins without fundamentals are doomed to be bagholders sooner or later.
Setting stop-losses sounds easy, but when the price really drops, your hands tremble, and you fantasize about a rebound...
Just surviving in the crypto world is already a win. Don't think about getting rich overnight.
