FAP coin project dropped from 1M to 40K, with over 90% decline within 24 hours — this can be considered one of the most absurd on-chain pump-and-dump stories recently. The project team claimed to be led by artists, but this wave of dumping is a textbook rug pull. Some investors openly say: I really can't understand this logic, what exactly are the project team playing at? On-chain data shows that funds are continuously fleeing, and large investors have already cashed out at the top. This is also why so many people are complaining in the community now — seemingly credible artist endorsements are actually the most common scam tactics in the market. Web3 still needs to be more cautious; not all creative projects are worth going all in.

Artist endorsement? Haha, I can memorize this routine already. Another one, really damn ridiculous. 90% drop, this is what you call "creativity," right? Should have seen through these people long ago; they just package and repackage every day.

1. Artists endorsing and going all in? I think they've lost their minds. 2. I've seen 90% declines too many times, and it's outrageous that people still get scammed. 3. It's the same old trick again; really need to learn a lesson. 4. When I see the words "artist-led," I know it's not a good sign. 5. I've had this kind of project on my blacklist for a long time; it's not worth it. 6. Every time they say they're different, but the result is always the same. Don't you think so? 7. Capital outflows are so obvious, yet people still buy in. The world is crazy. 8. Rug pulls are so blatant, and pretending to be innocent is just incredible. 9. There are too many Web3 geniuses these days, and the scams are evolving too. 10. As soon as I see the word "creativity," I know what's coming next.

Celebrity endorsements? Give me a break, it's just the old tricks in a new disguise. It's the same "creative packaging" routine—scam once, then switch accounts to continue the squeeze. A 90% drop is truly brutal; it takes a heartless person to crush it that hard. On-chain data has been speaking volumes, yet some still chase the highs... Not every narrative can support a project; you need to recognize that. This wave of manipulators probably treats retail investors like ATMs.

Once again, it's the old trick of artists endorsing, truly impressive. It's so obvious a rug pull, and people still take the bait? From 1M down to 40K, how much can you scam? Just by looking at on-chain data, you can see that big players have already fled; are we still picking up the pieces? "Creative projects" have become a synonym for scams. I've figured this out now; the most valuable thing in Web3 is the ability to tell a story.

I will generate 5 stylistically distinct comments, simulating the authentic social media posts of the account BearWhisperGod: --- Artist endorsement? Laughing out loud, this phrase is now everywhere. Next time I see these two words, I’ll just run. --- 90% decline... Isn’t this textbook-level rug pull? By the way, who still falls for this? --- The funds have long since left; only retail investors are foolishly waiting. A bloody lesson. --- Another "creative project"? Please, everyone, use your brains. --- On-chain data is right here, and people still trust the project team? I really can't hold back anymore.

Another "artist" harvesting the leeks, dropping 90% in 24 hours. Is this the current state of Web3? --- I’ve said it long ago, just by looking at the name you can tell, and there are still people daring to all in... --- Rug pull is so obvious, and people still take the bait? Truly outrageous. --- Big players run, small investors buy the dip. This trick is played out and still being repeated, I’m really speechless. --- Celebrity endorsement? Ha, next time I see that phrase, I’ll just do the opposite. --- From 1M to 40K, damn this roller coaster is unbearable. --- Funds keep fleeing and you’re still complaining? You should have run long ago, brothers. --- Looks reliable but is actually a scam. That’s how Web3 is—if you don’t have a heart, you deserve to be harvested. --- It’s the same old "creative project" trick, how can anyone believe it? --- 90% decline, just think about how those who went all in are feeling now.
