#美联储重启降息步伐 The altcoin market in 2025 has essentially become a meticulously designed washout game.



Many people blame the market downturn on a "lack of liquidity." That’s true, but only half the story. The real killer is that these projects have rotted to the core.

From the metaverse hype to RWA, and now to AI concepts everywhere—what’s really changed? It's the same old tricks with a new label, and even the project teams themselves can't keep up the act anymore. Teams take no real action, communities are empty shells, and they dare to list with market caps in the billions. This isn’t fundraising, it’s outright robbery—peak at launch, and everything after is just time to dump.

The result is predictable. Funds only dare to pile into the top projects, while the other 90% of altcoins turn into the walking dead. If a project team tries to pump the price a little, it gets dumped immediately, so they just give up. New coins launch? Breaking below issue price is the norm; they can’t even be bothered to draw a price chart anymore.

It used to be “hold and get rich,” now it’s “run slow and get buried.” The rules of the game have completely changed: get in and out fast, cut your losses hard, and if you catch a rebound but don’t exit? Then wait for the next bull-bear cycle to say goodbye.

There are only two ways to play now: either you have insider info and can outrun the project teams themselves, or you only touch the most certain blue-chip tokens. Stop fantasizing about “100x coins”—first ask yourself: how many people haven’t exited at this level? Am I going to be the last one holding the bag?

The altcoin battlefield in 2025 is a hunting ground for professional predators, not a playground for retail investors.

ngl this whole "retail playground" thing hits different when you realize 90% of these shitcoins are just exit liquidity waiting to happen... the narrative carousel never stops spinning, does it

Damn, that's spot on. The whole market is just filled with bag holders now. Basically, it's just a bet on who can get out the fastest. Liquidity? That's just an excuse—the project itself is garbage. I'm used to breaking below issue price becoming the norm. Should've realized sooner not to touch shitcoins. The blue chips are still worth a look, but the rest? Just dead accounts. This round of washout is thorough, it's really tough for retail investors. Wait, so does that mean we can only go all in on BTC and ETH? No way, there are still people who actually believe in those 100x coins? Insider info? Heh, retail investors like us can never compete. Getting in and out quickly sounds easy, but the mental game is the hardest part. Now when a new coin dumps below issue price, I don't even bother looking at the charts—just pass.

That's pretty harsh, but it's not wrong. Now even dropping below the offering price isn't news anymore—going straight to zero is what's common. These project teams might as well go play blockchain games instead. If you're a second slower to run, it's really goodbye forever—I believe it. The top projects stay on top. What are retail investors even playing? Just a list of bag holders.

That hits hard—90% of coins just copy and paste the technology. Project teams are slacking off but still pumping the price, it's just outrageous. You really have to get in and out quickly, or you'll get stuck. I still dare to follow the big players, but small coins? Forget it. I really don't have any insider info. It's become normal for coins to drop below listing price; it's honestly boring. Now I don't even want to look at the K-lines anymore.

Seriously, new coins breaking issue price isn't even news anymore. It's a joke that they still want to pump after everything's gone bust. Insider info is a hundred times more reliable than technical analysis. If you don't run fast enough, you'll really lose everything. I've learned my lesson this time. These days, anyone who dares to touch altcoins just has a gambler's mentality. Blue chips are still okay, the rest are just traps. Next time a hundredfold coin appears, I'll probably be numb to it already.

Anyone still daring to play with altcoins now is either an information peddler or a gambler. --- Listen, insider information is the real liquidity. --- The 100x dream should have been shattered long ago. The question is, how many people are still waiting for the next 100x? --- The blue chips are already rotten to the core, let alone the other garbage. --- Honestly, getting into altcoins now is just asking for trouble. --- Moving slow = getting buried, that's the plain truth. --- Look at those new coins breaking below launch price—the teams don't even bother to support the market anymore. --- Cleansing game? That ended a long time ago—what's left are just corpses. --- Are there still people who really believe “just hold and you'll get rich”? Time to wake up. --- Either you have inside info and run fast, or you only touch the blue chips—there's no third way. --- This hunt started long ago. Retail investors going in now are just being fed to the wolves.
