Took a position in a new altcoin last night, and the gains are stacking up nicely so far. Here's the thing though - what's preventing this from pumping the way similar tokens have in the past? The pattern seems pretty obvious. My take is straightforward: betting on hype combined with price momentum is genuinely the most powerful marketing tool in crypto right now. Don't get me wrong, I'm not claiming deep fundamental analysis here. The way certain projects go viral and attract capital flows often boils down to ego and narrative - when that momentum kicks in, it becomes self-fulfilling. The real question isn't whether it makes sense, but whether the market will keep playing the same game. And based on what we've seen, the answer keeps being yes.

Basically, it's just about the gambling atmosphere; whether there's a fundamental basis doesn't matter.

Making money through hype and narratives—it's a bit blunt to say, but that's the current state of the crypto world.

NGL, this is just a hot potato game; catch the rhythm to earn, fall behind and get cut.

ngl this is just dressed up coin flip theory with extra steps... momentum = narrative = ego = exit liquidity. seen this movie before
