Have we crossed the line where the sheer number of new token launches is becoming counterproductive? The market's getting flooded, and at this pace, it feels like we're losing the ability to properly evaluate what's actually worth paying attention to. Between airdrops, mainnet rollouts, and new protocols dropping daily, there's this growing question: are we experiencing genuine ecosystem growth, or just unsustainable noise that'll eventually wash out?

Basically, it's just a mess now, and you can't tell which ones are truly innovative and which are just shit coins.

I've been meaning to say this: with daily airdrops of new coins, who the hell can keep up?

*checks notes* ah yes, the classic "too many tokens" phase... statistically speaking, this is exactly how 2017 looked before the capitulation. history doesn't repeat but it sure as hell rhymes, and we're literally reading from the same playbook. token launchers gonna token launch, then wonder why 99% turn into dust.

NGL, choosing coins now is even harder than choosing a wife. New projects keep popping up every day, and it's hard to tell who's genuine and who's fake. --- Basically, it's a game of hot potato; someone has to be the last to catch the baton. --- This wave has definitely gone too far... It feels like more and more people are screaming in a casino. --- Ecosystem growth? I think it's ecosystem cancerization; it needs surgery. --- Every airdrop is testing my patience to the limit, really. --- In the early days, you could find good projects, but now it's all spam, and you can't see the real ones anymore. --- When will the bubble burst? I can't wait any longer. --- Rather than ecosystem growth, it's more like an attention crisis. --- The pace of pump-and-dump can't keep up with the rate of new coin issuance; how crazy is that?
