Honestly, it's 2026 and we're still talking about those old stories. The market has long been tired of them.

Look at the projects that have emerged in the past two years—most of the routines are quite similar—early players come up with new stories, liquidity follows, and large funds start to pay attention. Without a good story, where does the wealth effect come from? Without the wealth effect, why would retail investors take the risk?

Ultimately, the logic of this market is like this: New narratives → Increased liquidity → Big projects reaching 1 billion level → Creating an ecosystem of profit. Otherwise, everyone plays separately, and no one makes much money.

What I'm most curious about is what new narratives will emerge this year to break the deadlock. Is it technological upgrades, application implementation, or some suddenly popular new concept? That’s the key to market analysis.

Basically, storytellers nowadays don't have new jokes anymore. It's really a case of aesthetic fatigue. But your logic is actually just so-so; in the end, isn't it just betting on the next narrative to appear? Who the hell knows? Let's wait and see who can come up with an impressive new concept—that's the real game.

Isn't that just a nice way of putting it? To be honest, it's still just hype and the same old manipulation by the big players.

Honestly, who still cares about those old tricks? We have to wait for new concepts to emerge.

In plain terms, the new narrative is the key to liquidity; without it, there's no way to break out. Wait, is it possible that this year's breakthrough isn't actually a new concept, but rather solidifying the economic model of the old ones? I'm a bit skeptical.

That's right, the era of just telling stories is over; now you need to have real substance.

It sounds like we're just waiting for the next story to take over, but the question is, who will tell it?
