Dropped $10 on this token and things aren't looking great—pretty sure I got rugged here. Anyone else catch this one before it tanked? The chart looks brutal, and my entry timing was absolutely off. Starting to wonder if this was a classic pump-and-dump scenario. Lessons learned: always check liquidity, verify dev transparency, and maybe don't FOMO into random launches with hype alone. What's your experience with similar situations? Have you recovered from bad trades or do you just chalk it up to expensive tuition in the crypto markets?

Damn, it's the same old trick. I've fallen for it too. Liquidity checks really save lives. --- Ten dollars? That's nothing. I once went all-in with five hundred. Now I just want to laugh. --- Transparency of devs? Ha, just look at the wallet transfer records, and you'll know they've already run away. --- Pump and dump has never changed; it's just a different disguise. --- Recovery? Nonexistent. Just consider it as tuition. Next time, be more careful. --- That's why I now go short when I see hype, betting on making money out of frustration. --- The chart looks terrible, but who asked us to buy at the bottom?

actually the math doesn't check out on half these launches... liquidity pools designed to rug in real time, it's textbook 2021 playbook. seen this exact contract pattern before

Once again, I've been rug pulled. What can ten dollars' worth of tuition buy? Checking liquidity is easier said than done. --- I've seen too many rug pulls; just take it as a lesson learned. After all, the crypto world’s tuition is already expensive. --- Oh my god, I always enter at the worst timing. How do I keep stepping into traps? --- Pump and dump schemes are indeed common, but most of the time it's just greed that gets you. There's nothing much to say. --- Ten dollars isn't much, but the key is the mindset. I'll probably make the same mistake again next time.
