There's something worth pondering here: slop might actually be a kind of metaphysical presence—something that clings to objects or ideas that lack genuine cult followings or real community value. If that's the case, it's not a temporary problem but rather a permanent fixture of how digital culture operates. The more you chase hype without substance, the more this phenomenon seems to amplify itself endlessly.

Slop is spot on. Essentially, it's about something without substance greedily climbing upward; the more you chase the wind, the deeper you get trapped. I should have realized this earlier.

The term "slop" is quite interesting, but I think rather than being a metaphysical existence, it's more like a true reflection of the entire Web3 community haha

It's a bit harsh, but it really hits home. Things without community support deserve to be entangled by slop.

Basically, anything without true believers is inherently garbage. The more you chase the hot trends, the faster you die. This cycle never ends.

Slop is like cancer in Web3; projects chasing hot topics without substance inherently come with this trait.

NGL slope is the original sin of the internet today; anything without a genuine community can't escape this curse.

It has proven that slop is just garbage data at the protocol layer... Without genuine community consensus backing it, this attack vector can never be eliminated.

Slop is just too awesome, which is why we see that 99% of projects are just air coins... Without a real community, things are like zombies wandering around aimlessly.

Basically, things that no one genuinely pursues will eventually become trash, and this logic makes sense.
