Having seen quite a few Launchpad projects, the套路基本一样. In the early stages, hype is high, trading volume surges, the ecosystem is bustling, and various official promotions flood the market. But then, how does the ecosystem coin perform? It drops straight to zero. This phenomenon is not uncommon—project teams create a false sense of prosperity through inflated trading data, and retail investors are left to exit in disappointment. A careful observation reveals that those periods of trading volume spikes are often accompanied by high incentives or short-term stimuli. Once these stimuli fade, market participation collapses. The ecosystem's vitality is severely lacking, and the project's true fundamentals cannot support long-term development. Before participating in any Launchpad project, don't be fooled by short-term trading volume data; delving into the ecosystem's operational logic and project retention is the key.

Really, it's always the same routine. After the hype, it dies.

Really, it's always the same trick. Once the hype passes, the coin becomes worthless.

After all these years, it's still the same old story; trading volume data is all an illusion.

Another common topic, but it really hits the nerve.

the aesthetic of collapse... launchpad projects are basically performing a bauhaus-inspired theater of artificial scarcity, aren't they? all spectacle, zero substance. once the tokenomics incentives dry up, the whole meta-narrative crumbles. nobody talks about the philosophical bankruptcy underneath the trading volume anymore

It's the same old trick again—when trading volume surges, it's time to run, really. You're so right; every time, as soon as the incentives stop, the true nature is revealed. The crypto leek harvesters are starting up again, cycle after cycle, never-ending. Looking at the data isn't as good as looking at retention; that's the real truth. Such high enthusiasm in the early stages—who remembers it after three months... Ecological tokens in hand are doomed; don't ask me how I know. Anyway, I've learned that the better the data looks, the more cautious you should be.

The hype cycle is obvious at a glance; if the incentives stop, it will die quickly.

Another old but recurring topic, but it really hits the nail on the head. Watch those projects fall from the moon into the toilet, with astonishing speed.
