Why do some projects delay their launch? The underlying logic is worth pondering.



Once launched, the situation changes. Projects with high market participation and strong consensus have already accumulated chips among retail investors. They will hold tightly, even bottom-fish. Although the market seems enthusiastic, in reality, a liquidity trap is in place.

Trying to pump the price? Difficult. When retail investors hold chips, they start to sell, while institutions and big players push the price up and open short positions, directly hedging the gains from the rise. A few percentage points of increase are hard to achieve, small investors can't make money, and the market makers' manipulative plans fall apart. This is why timing the launch and liquidity management are more critical than the project itself.

Liquidity management is indeed important. But I just remembered something — improper access control can also easily cause bottlenecks, really.

Really? That's why I always say that the timing of going live is more valuable than the technical white paper.

Ha, it's that same theory about timing of launch again. Easy to talk about, but when it comes to execution, who isn't the one getting cut?

It's the same theory again, but to be honest, it makes some sense... Retail investors bottom-fishing and holding stubbornly can really annoy the big players to death.

Basically, it's because there are too many players, retail investors have their chips, and the big players can't move the market, so no one can make money.

Basically, it's a game of timing—whoever controls the rhythm wins. Already exhausted before launch, but after launch, can't move at all. It's hilarious.

Basically, retail investors bought the dip and completely disrupted the market maker's plans, haha.
