The InfoFi market has really been flooded by bots. An industry observer lamented that small accounts are panicking instantly. But these bots don't care whether you're worried or not; they remain active in the market.
It seems that bot strategies have completely infiltrated this sector. When a large number of automated trades impact the ecosystem, the situations of retail investors and institutions are entirely different. Small accounts, due to their size and poor liquidity, are more easily affected by market fluctuations manipulated by bots. And those players relying on algorithmic trading? They are profiting from this chaos.
This reflects a reality: under the influence of information asymmetry and technological gaps, the fairness of the DeFi ecosystem is gradually being eroded. Bots won't disappear; instead, they will become smarter. For retail investors, the choice is either to adapt to these game rules or to seek market windows that bots haven't fully taken over yet.

Retail investors are tired of hearing the term; it's high time to face reality.

According to the governance mechanism design in the white paper, this MEV vampirism phenomenon should have been anticipated long ago. Retail investors' liquidity disadvantages are quantifiable in on-chain data, and there's no remedy.

It's the same story again; retail investors are always the last to step in as the bagholders.
