The ecosystem of撸毛 and the meme craze are fundamentally similar in their operational logic. Meme projects typically start by finding a catchy narrative, with early movers telling stories, gathering popularity, and creating a relay effect. As for the magnitude of the increase, it is not the key; whether it can continuously attract new participants is the critical survival line. The same applies to撸毛 projects. The project teams value most the early influential figures who can drive public opinion. The strategy is straightforward: first distribute early incentives and chips to these key individuals, then, with carefully crafted storytelling and their influence, hype up the expectation of "getting rich overnight." As participation surges, the next step is the harvesting phase. The entire process is essentially a game of expectations—whoever takes the last position loses.

Basically, it's a game of hot potato. The early entrants make money, and the later ones just wait to be cut off. I'm already tired of this routine. Big V talks about stories with chips, retail investors rush in to buy in, and the cycle is perfect. The key is that some people truly believe it can multiply tenfold. Wake up, everyone. The front wave pushes the back wave, and the back wave dies on the beach. No problem. The most ruthless part of the game is: the story gets more and more exaggerated, more people enter, and the manipulators cash out and escape perfectly. Taking over is inevitable; it depends on whether you want to be the storyteller or the listener. Repeated scripts, just change the skin, and someone will fall for it.

To put it plainly, this script for harvesting new investors hasn't changed at all. It's always story after story, with influencers endorsing, new investors passing the baton, a perfect game of hot potato. The last person to take the baton is always the worst off. Those in the know have already seen through it; if you're still all-in, you really need to reflect. The expected winner of the game is always the house; that's an ironclad rule. Watching people race cars every day, if you really dare to get in, you're just a fool. Basically, it's a rotation of the little guys; this year you cut me, next year I cut you.

To be honest, this scheme is really everywhere now, just a variation of cutting leeks. Early influencers used chips to tell stories, and later people suffer huge losses; it's always the same. The bagholders are always the last to come in. I just want to know how many more people need to fall into this trap before they learn their lesson.

Basically, it's a game of hot potato—those who get in early make money, those who come later just take the fall. The eternal truth. This trick is so old it’s like picking your nose; it just changes its disguise and comes back again. Big V influencers are accomplices, saying nice things for money. We're just waiting to get cut.

Basically, it's just hot potato—those who play last have to take the fall. This trick has been played out long ago, yet some still rush in. The chips in the hands of big V's are long gone, and retail investors are still dreaming of getting rich overnight. It's just a game of expectations—wake up, everyone. By the way, which project is using this move again? I'm watching.
