The power of the community is often underestimated. Seeing many cases of community building in various projects truly made me realize how crucial this is.

Short-term speculative mentality is indeed a trap. Many times, the ups and downs we see in projects all point to the same issue—lack of genuine community support. Projects without community stickiness, no matter how good their concepts are, are likely to fade quickly. Conversely, those with vibrant communities, even after experiencing setbacks, can still rally together and move forward.

I am fortunate to witness some projects' persistence in community building; their spirit is truly commendable. Although I haven't been directly involved, the execution and resilience I observe from the sidelines are impressive.

Recent industry voices also confirm this point. Even seemingly simple ecosystems like Meme coins can generate unexpected value if the community is managed properly. What does this indicate? It shows that the project itself is just the framework; the real flesh and blood is the community.

The future is long, and projects that value their communities and treat users sincerely are likely to progress more steadily. Short-term speculators come and go, but those who genuinely contribute to building will always be the ones who stay.

Community is indeed the core, but to be honest, many projects nowadays only use the community as a facade, just hyping without doing real work. That said, the truly active communities do look different. They have much stronger risk resistance. Meme coins, on the other hand, have taught us what cohesion really means—ironic or not? Speculators should wake up; projects without community backing will eventually reveal their true nature.

Community stickiness is truly the real deal; too many projects fail because of this. After playing for so long, the clearest thing I've seen is—no matter how good the concept hype is, it's useless without real people supporting it. Honestly, it's a bit exhausting. You have to watch a bunch of new projects come and go, and only then realize that trusting the community all along was the right move. The meme coin example hit home. Even seemingly brainless things can be sustained if the community is strong—that's the real truth. In the end, I can guess which projects will survive—it's those teams that genuinely treat their fans as people.

Exactly right, the community is the moat. Projects that rely solely on hype will disperse at the slightest breeze.

The chip distribution has long explained everything. Retail investors banding together for warmth is called a community, while institutions quietly accumulating is the real logic. The recent Meme coin rally is supported by consensus on the technical side, but fundamentally it’s still an emotional indicator reaching its peak. The pattern has formed; next, observe whether the trading volume can be maintained, otherwise it’s just typical rookie mentality speculation.
