Some new projects are using increasingly套路套路. First releasing a bunch of negative public opinion, pushing people's expectations of the floor price to the limit—who would want to buy the dip? Once the sentiment cools down completely and the price is thoroughly suppressed, they suddenly switch to promotion and hype. In just a few days, a floor price of tens of thousands can be smashed into a market cap of millions. This kind of explanation sounds like a conspiracy theory, but looking at the recurring patterns in the market, you'll find that it's no coincidence. The project team controls the narrative and manages expectations, ultimately harvesting a wave of retail investors who didn't react in time. This kind of market manipulation is common in the crypto market, and investors need to stay vigilant.

Really, I've seen this trick several times, and someone always falls for it. The fact that such obvious tricks still attract people to buy in—what does that say? Lowering the floor price to a market cap of millions? Dream on. Where does this data come from? Instead of studying these, it's better to see which project teams are actually working seriously.

It's the same old trick, I'm already tired of it --- Honestly, this is a standard rug pull script, nothing new --- The floor price keeps crashing and then suddenly surges again, retail investors always react one step late --- This combination of public opinion management + price manipulation is really top-notch, someone always falls for it --- It's just waiting for the emotions to completely die down, then suddenly launching a wave of promotion, wake up everyone --- Spending tens of thousands to reach a million market cap, isn't that number ridiculous? --- Controlling the narrative has been tried and tested here, the project team really knows how to play --- Anyway, I no longer trust any sudden good news, it's probably a trap --- Caution? Are there still people not cautious now? Those are just rookies --- That's why I never buy the dip, it's too dangerous

It's the same old trick again, really getting annoying. Retail investors are always the last to take the fall. Playing like this every time, how haven't the market people learned yet? That's why I don't believe anyone's story now, I only look at the data.

Really, I get tricked by this routine every time. By the time I realize it, I'm already caught at the floor price.

Coming with the same trick again? I've seen through it early on, it's just a classic move of cutting off the source. Just wait until my wallet gets fatter.

Oh my god, I've seen this trick too many times, and someone always falls for it. Retail investors really need to wake up and stop getting cut. That's why I never chase after hot projects; they're too shady. So, those who still dare to buy the dip now are probably gamblers, right?

I'm already tired of this routine; it's always the same script every time, really treating retail investors like fools.

Here we go again? I'm already tired of this. It's always the same script. When things are bad, pretend to be dead; as soon as things turn around, start hyping. Retail investors always end up holding the bag last.
