The gameplay of the recently launched projects has really changed.

Project teams now tend to cash out a portion of their tokens and leave. Whether retail investors can make any profit depends on two things: first, whether the overall market cooperates; second, whether the team is willing to pump the price. To put it bluntly, the initiative is completely out of our hands.

The next few upcoming projects are quite anticipated—there's that stablecoin protocol from Stable, Infinex's cross-chain solution, and SentientAGI with its AI concept. Not sure if early participants will get any benefit this time.

Anyway, in this market, it's not about who jumps in first, but who can hold out until the project team is willing to share the profits.
