A few days ago, I unexpectedly discovered that the $LIGHT token on the contract is quite interesting—its price fluctuations are tightly stuck between 0.5u and 5u, feeling like a project in the primary market being tightly controlled.



Friends who understand on-chain data can analyze the initial liquidity distribution of this token to get a clue. The manipulator's tactics are nothing more than oscillating within this range; going beyond this interval is too costly for them, so they rarely break through.

I happened to see this during the night of a sharp drop and took a short position, which resulted in some losses. After that, I basically stopped participating—these kinds of tokens aren't worth wasting time and funds on.

If you really want to bottom fish, my advice is: place your orders slightly below 0.5u, but don't set the amount too large. The reason is simple—whales will sniper large orders, and the bigger your order, the easier it is to be countered and liquidated. Smaller, multiple orders are safer.

Honestly, these tokens are just playgrounds for whales. Retail investors should be mentally prepared to get cut, or not play at all. If you do play, you need to be smarter than them.

0.5 to 5u, repeatedly tugging back and forth. I've seen this routine many times; it's a typical farmland tactic.

Damn, it's another typical pump-and-dump playground. These kinds of coins are really not worth it.

From a technical perspective, this kind of fully controlled coin is actually very difficult to break through the preset range — the asymmetry in liquidity distribution determines everything.

I've also looked at this coin, and it is indeed locked. The manipulator's tactics are obvious at a glance. --- I've suffered losses from short positions. This kind of volatile trading really takes time, so let's forget about it. --- Small orders are the way to go; large orders are easily swept away in minutes. --- $LIGHT is just a casino; retail investors entering are basically just giving away money. I choose to stay on the sidelines. --- Honestly, I’d rather miss out than get trapped. I don’t touch these kinds of coins. --- The manipulator's playground is getting lively. We should just tuck our tails and behave. --- It looks like a typical case of market manipulation in the primary market. The risk is too high. --- Analyzing liquidity distribution reveals what's really going on. I’m too lazy to bother. --- Small investors facing manipulators is just asking for trouble. Face the reality, everyone. --- Waiting below 0.5? You might as well check out other promising projects.

hypothesis: $LIGHT's price corridor between 0.5u-5u basically screams liquidity manipulation through an oracle lens... the distribution asymmetries probably tell the whole story there, ngl
