LIT experienced a drop of over 30% - 50% from its peak at TGE at the end of December 2025. During some periods, it even approached a 50% cut and continued to decline, which is quite lamentable.

Previously, LIT's daily fee income reached millions of dollars, seemingly prosperous, but in reality, it was a "false appearance" created by market makers (MM) to manipulate airdrops. They paid high fees to continuously rebalance and tighten spreads. Once the activity ended, MMs withdrew, and the actual daily income plummeted from 1.5 million dollars to 90,000 - 100,000 dollars, a decline of over 90%. Trading volume and open interest (OI) also halved, with real usage scenarios being heartbreaking.

Worse still, large holders and airdrop recipients panicked and sold off, with many airdrop recipients, such as pts whales and the top 25 users, selling at mid-to-high levels, with some even clearing 60 - 80% of their positions. This selling accelerated the price decline, causing more panic selling and creating a vicious cycle.

The crypto market is unpredictable; everyone should invest cautiously. If you find this analysis useful, please give a free follow, bookmark, like, and join the discussion in the comments!
