Recently, I saw a typical eyewash case in the crypto world and wanted to discuss it with everyone.



This is talking about the ARRR coin. The project party claims to have mastered "absolute anonymity" black technology, with promises of privacy protection and military-grade encryption, which sounds incredible. But in reality? There are a ton of technical vulnerabilities, and the team keeps their information under wraps.

The entire process of squeezing the leeks is divided into three steps. The first step is to pump the price, with the project team and market makers working together—using a small amount of funds to place orders on small platforms, forcefully raising the coin price from $0.1 to $2. Meanwhile, various jokes start to circulate in the community: "The new leader of privacy coins has arrived" "Institutions have already gotten in" "The next hundredfold coin". All these messages are fabricated, with one purpose—to attract retail investors in.

The second step is harvesting. Once enough retail investors have taken the bait at a high price, the project team begins to sell off in bulk from the hidden wallets. Within 24 hours, the coin price plummets by 90%, leading to a complete collapse. Immediately afterward, the official website goes black, all social media accounts are deleted, and the founder goes completely missing. The money has gone into their pockets, leaving retail investors with nothing.

There are several pitfalls worth remembering behind this case:

First of all, don't be blinded by buzzwords like "anonymous" and "privacy". There are indeed legitimate privacy projects with solid technology, but most of the altcoins that wave this flag? Their technical foundation is rough, and essentially they are eyewash. Speculating on concepts is much simpler than developing technology.

Secondly, stay away from projects that the team is being secretive about. Why do they want to remain hidden? Most likely it's to facilitate running away with the money later. By that time, you won't be able to find anyone to hold accountable, and your path to defending your rights will be completely blocked.

Finally, those "myths of skyrocketing" in the community are just for listening. A crazy surge in the short term is often just the project team putting on a show, trying to lure retail investors in as bag holders. A truly good project has growth that is logical and supported by fundamentals.

Again with this routine, I'm already tired of it. My friend almost bought ARRR-type coins, luckily I stopped him. --- Anonymous privacy? Ha, nine out of ten are just a front, and the remaining one won't escape either. --- Passing on projects that hide and seek with the team, there's nothing to say. --- I just laugh at the community's "hundredfold coins" comments; truly profitable projects wouldn't be hyped every day. --- Raising from 0.1 to 2, then dropping 90% in a day? That tactic is completely rotten, and some still fall for it. --- Invisible team = a prelude to running away with the money, this logic isn't hard to understand. --- Crypto scammers love to use words like "black technology" and "military-grade encryption" to fool people, and some actually believe it. --- The process of cutting leeks is written almost like a tutorial; there are only so many tricks. --- I've seen similar cases with ARRR before; it's always the same rhythm. Retail investors really need to remember more.

Another "military-grade encryption" joke, fine. --- I directly blacklist projects that the team tries to cover up, I’m too familiar with this routine. --- I just want to know how many people will still shell out money for phrases like "next 100x coin". --- A 90% Plummet in 24 hours is just a normal day in the crypto world, anyway I’ve become numb to it. --- The stuff about Privacy Coin sounds grand, but in reality it’s just two words—play people for suckers. --- The more jokes there are in the community about a project, the more you should stay away, that’s my hard-earned lesson. --- When 0.1 is pumped to 2, I start running, I'm too familiar with this rhythm, it’s always like this. --- To put it bluntly, it’s just concept hype, technology? Nonexistent. --- The step of the team going dark is the most ruthless, you can't even chase them. --- When I hear "institutions have entered a position", I know it’s doomed.

It's the same old trick, which basically means pump and dump Rug Pull. I never touch coins from teams that go incognito; it's obviously a setup to run away with the money. Retail investors catching a falling knife at high positions is just insane; those jokes about "institutions have entered a position" are just for laughs. Concept coins are the easiest to play people for suckers; all that talk about privacy black technology is clearly just hot air. At the moment when it falls 90% in 24 hours, you'll finally understand what it means to lose everything.

It's the same old trick again; the Privacy Coin is just all hot air beneath the surface. Every time it's played this way, as soon as the team goes incognito, it's time to run. I've really seen too many times the market makers' pump tactics. A 90% plummet in 24 hours, and retail investors will get played for suckers again. I don't understand why there are still people believing in the nonsense of "the next 100x coin." Concept hype is far easier than technology; this is the truth of the crypto world.

It's another trap coin, damn it... Really, seeing the words "Privacy Coin" makes me want to run. Yesterday, someone was still bragging about ARRR in the group, and now they're left with nothing, they deserve it. The team is keeping things hidden because they want to scam; how can you play with coins without this common sense? Once it pumped to $2, you should have been cautious, this rhythm is off... Retail investors really need to learn how to read Candlesticks. Institutions entering a position? Give me a break, it's all just scam talk; I learned my lesson after falling for it once.

It's the same old trick again, the team goes incognito + hype around the concept, I can guess the outcome with my eyes closed. People always want to buy the dip on that 100x coin, but nine times out of ten, they end up being a dumb buyer. Those messages in the community saying "institutions have entered a position" are just for show, mostly the project party hyping themselves up. Anonymous privacy? Sounds good, but it's really just leaving a backdoor for a Rug Pull. Seeing a 90% Plummet from a high position happens too often, and every time someone ends up losing everything. Take a good look at the team's information before acting, it's nothing special, just that simple.
