The operational logic of certain project teams is indeed worth discussing. Ultimately, what is the core of this kind of model? The commission source for KOLs involved in promotion is essentially cut from user funds. Once this "profit distribution chain" is formed, both the project team and promoters are motivated to continue operating until it becomes unsustainable. If such projects can still survive in the market, it can only be said that there is still significant room for improvement in industry regulation and user discernment capabilities.

Basically, it's just harvesting the little guys, KOLs taking commissions, project teams gaining traffic, and in the end, we are the ones paying the bill.

Basically, it's a chain of cutting leeks, where KOLs take commissions, project teams profit from the spread, and in the end, retail investors are the ones who pay the bill.

Basically, it's a leek dish, KOLs take commissions, and retail investors are at the bottom. This trick is so old it's falling apart.

Laughing to death, this is the "leek buffet" version in the crypto circle, with project KOL one-stop service. I would call this move the "Art of Profit Distribution Exhibition." Anyway, someone has to make money, right? How to put it, regulation and vision are luxury items in a bull market. KOL takes commissions, users lose their underwear, project teams count money—perfect closed loop, everyone. The industry still needs to pay some tuition fees; it's a rule. Wait, you say we can still survive like this? It means we're not smart enough yet. Whoever sees it will get on the bus. Anyway, I understand it, but I don't have the money to join. I have to say, this chain design is quite clever, just a bit "scientific." This model should have been shut down ten years ago. Why is it still around? I rate the industry's quality myself.

Once the data is laid out, the logic of this "harvesting" scheme becomes clear... KOLs take commissions, project teams pocket the difference, and the final payers are always retail investors(´；ω；`)

Basically, it's just a new trick to fleece retail investors. KOLs take commissions while users bleed. Who doesn't know this?

Basically, it's a collaborative effort to harvest retail investors' funds, with KOLs taking commissions, project teams pocketing the spread, and ultimately retail investors bearing the brunt.

Basically, it's just hot potato; sooner or later, you'll have to take over.
