Looks like we're finally witnessing some rationality return to the on-chain ecosystem. After the waves of speculation and hype cycles, market participants seem to be refocusing on fundamentals and real utility. The noise is settling, and that's actually a healthy sign for the long-term development of the space.

Rationality returns? Ha, let's first see if any new reentrancy vulnerabilities have been discovered. How long can this wave of "calm and composed" last? That's a question mark.

Rationality returns? Ha, let's wait and see. I've seen this cycle many times before.

Hmm... Rational return? Why do I still see a bunch of meme coins bouncing around there?

It should be noted that on-chain data shows this narrative was overturned as early as 2017... Honestly, every cycle someone sings this tune. --- Undoubtedly, returning to fundamentals sounds good, but can you point out exactly which "real utility" you mean? Or is it just another round of self-deception. --- Laughable, rationality? I see no shortage of degeneracy on the chain, just a new skin. --- Let's return to Satoshi Nakamoto's original thinking: Bitcoin never needed a "rationality return" rhetoric because its design inherently contains the eternal rationality of mathematics. Your point actually exposes a misunderstanding of the technical fundamentals. --- That's correct, but such "clarity" is at least three years late. Those who saw through it early have already exited. --- Gentlemen, listen to me—so-called "noise dissipation" is just market participants' attention shifting to the next hot spot. Cyclical false clarity, that's all.

Fundamentals are the key, and speculators are finally about to be pushed out.

Rationality returns? Ha, I think it's just because there's no money to trade anymore. The real truth is that everyone is afraid of getting cut.

Hmm... Rationality returns? What I see is just a calm before another round of harvesting the little guys. After so many times in history, can't you learn?
