The recent trend of USELESS coins has shown an interesting phenomenon—more and more market participants seem to be awakening to the fact that the vast majority of projects in the crypto market cannot withstand scrutiny.

From a technical perspective, USELESS has demonstrated relative strength compared to mainstream assets such as Solana, S&P 500 Index, XRP, WIF, PEPE, Bitcoin, and PUMP. Behind this contrarian performance, it perhaps reflects a re-evaluation of the essence of projects—those that dare to confront their own value positioning and early on accept market realities are actually favored by traders. Maybe this is another way to interpret the current market situation.

USELESS-10,73%

SOL-0,27%

WIF-0,74%

Haha, honest projects actually make money. This theory sounds fresh. --- USELESS is a great name, really better than those flashy ones. --- Basically, the retail investors have finally woken up and started valuing sincerity over flashy presentations. --- Something's off. The coin called USELESS is going against the trend? This market is indeed a paradise for contrarian moves. --- This is what I like—no pretenses, and living quite well. --- Remember those "revolutionary technologies" that ended up being air coins? It's still more solid with straightforward projects. --- Wait, is this a satire of those self-promoting projects? Feels like an inside joke, haha. --- The market is finally showing some common sense—facing its own strengths and weaknesses is worth more than making up stories. --- USELESS is surprisingly tough? I want to see how long it can last. --- There's something here. This kind of honesty in the crypto space is quite rare.

Honest projects end up winning? I can't argue with that logic, but I'm just worried it might be another narrative trap.

Haha, USELESS is really a clever name, and it's much more honest than those projects that boast extravagantly. This wave is indeed quite interesting; the market is finally starting to get serious? To put it simply, everything is exposed. Instead of being lofty and grand, it's better to just say it’s not very useful. It actually gives off a kind of contrasting cuteness.

Haha, the name "useless" sounds honest, and it ended up winning.

Haha, I just like the name USELESS, at least it's honest. This time, it's clear that the more aggressively a project is hyped, the faster it dies. To beat these mainstream assets against the trend? I don't believe you... People in the crypto world really buy into this "I'm very honest" narrative, it's incredible. By the way, does this thing really have a solid fundamental, or is it just another Pump&Dump?

Haha, the name USELESS is brilliantly chosen, and it actually won. Hey, do you guys feel that the more "honest" projects are now surviving the longest... Basically, coins that don't boast can survive. This countertrend is pretty intense, quite interesting. USELESS embodies the winning mindset, I’m optimistic.

Haha, this is hilarious. The name USELESS is so honestly chosen that no one is criticizing it. Damn, this move is really fierce. The worse it gets, the more people want it? No, honestly, it's just market fatigue. Everyone's tired of those big-picture promises. USELESS skyrocketing? Fine, I'll wait and see the K-line before commenting. Hey, this logic is kind of interesting... Are honest projects more attractive than false promises? Something's off... Is this sarcasm or genuine optimism? Anyway, I don't get it. It seems like that's just how the crypto world operates. Wait, USELESS defeating Bitcoin and SOL? Is that true, bro? Honestly, this is the attitude Web3 should have—no more pretenses. Laughing to death, the most boring coin actually has the most vitality.
