In the past two days, I’ve seen a bunch of people swapping PFP profile pictures and making membership pass purchases again. Everyone’s talking about, “Does this time mean we’re going to build a long-term brand?” Actually, I think PFPs are more like an entry ticket. What really determines whether people stay is whether, later on, you can keep giving them a reason to hang around: content, events, benefits, and the most basic sense of security. Put plainly: if you only post images, don’t handle contracts, and don’t provide clear rules, people will drift away after a while.

By the way, I also saw the funding rate in the group is extremely extreme again—the arguing is so loud it’s like the Spring Festival travel rush. Some people say the reversal is coming; others say we still need to keep squeezing the bubble. Either way, in moments like this, it’s easiest to impulsively try to “prove yourself,” but what I care about more is whether the project team/community can withstand the pressure—don’t suddenly change the rules, and don’t casually issue “signed transaction” links… I’d rather go slower, than lose the safety baseline just because of a momentary burst of attention.
