That's so true. Projects that rely on creating controversy to attract attention should have their brains washed long ago. The community isn't made up of fools.

Data shows that this pattern should have died long ago; hourly engagement statistics can't support more than three months. However, most projects are still burning money and playing with fire, with miners consuming too much, causing gas fees to skyrocket. Who still has the energy to focus on authenticity... We've observed a pattern: communities with real substance tend to last longer. Just a bit more patience, and this logic can be verified.

That's quite true. Projects that rely on hype and gimmicks really need to wake up. The ones that can truly survive still have to rely on strength; the community isn't stupid.

NGL, this advice is quite right. Projects that constantly stir things up to grab attention ultimately still lack trust... It's about time to change that.

ngl This article is so right. I'm tired of those projects that force "contrast cuteness" just to stand out; it's really cheap.
