This year, the crypto market situation is severe, and many projects are indeed facing funding pressures. Some institutions have started performing "fundraising magic," and new retail investors need to stay vigilant. Many industry insiders are already calling it a "wave of bankruptcies." Whether this downward cycle can be endured depends on each project's financial reserves and luck.

The term "fundraising magic" is brilliant; frankly, it's just a new way to scam people. I think, projects that truly survive are already not short of money. Most of those still raising funds are just squeezing toothpaste. Bankruptcy wave? Ha, it's starting again. We said the same last year, and we'll be saying it next year too. Wealth + luck? Brother, you're being too honest. It's really just about who your parents are and gambling. Alright, look, someone will always wade into this muddy water; everyone has no way out. Funding pressure, right? Those institutions have already run away with the money. It's the retail investors who suffer.

Funding magic? Ha, just the same old trick, different packaging. Watch your wallets, everyone. Project teams are now more anxious than the retail investors; this is just the beginning of the death spiral. Wealth and luck? Nonsense. Without technology or products, no matter how much capital you have, it's all just paper. With bankruptcy rumors flying around, the real cutthroat phase has just begun. Playing funding magic here? It's better to look at on-chain data for real insights. New retail investors, listen to me: you need to learn to smell the scent of Ponzi schemes. Who can withstand this wave? Probably those old projects that haven't raised funds before. Funding news is everywhere, and many are fleeing; what's the point? Institutions are also starting to backstab; market sentiment has really collapsed. No matter how much capital you have, you can't beat the internal competition of technology; if it's time to exit, you must exit.

The "magic" of fundraising is just a new trick to cut leeks; it should have been seen through long ago. Bankruptcy wave? Some project teams should have gone bankrupt long ago; clearing the field is the only way to be reborn. Assets and luck? I think it mainly depends on whether there are real users and cash flow. The projects that survive this round are truly rare gems. But when some fail, others seize the opportunity—crisis is also an opportunity.

Bankruptcy wave? Ha, I think it's more like a harvest season for cutting leeks. The magic of fundraising has long been exposed; it's just a few tricks. Assets and luck? Honestly, it's all about who has more money. Getting through this round alive is already good enough; don't overthink it. They're already shouting about the end of the world again. Isn't it annoying every time?
