The operation of TRADOOR this time can be described as a textbook case of play people for suckers.
The time was stuck at 3:30 AM—when most retail investors were fast asleep. The price was first瞬间拉到6.6U's peak, and then it flash crashed to 1.57U, a drop of 71%. The entire process took only a few minutes, leaving no time to react. By the time everyone woke up and opened the APP, the contract accounts were in complete disarray.
The current market environment is already very fragile. The overall market has not stabilized, and various small coins are experiencing successive crashes. Especially those projects that have only launched contracts and haven't even gone live with spot trading are at a maximum risk level.
The logic behind this kind of operation is very simple: creating FOMO sentiment by pumping late at night, then directly crashing the market to play people for suckers after luring in buyers. The big players eat well, and retail investors foot the bill. If you are holding similar "phantom contracts" — those cryptocurrencies that have no futures or spot markets yet, you really need to think twice.
The market will always teach lessons, but the cost should not be borne by you.

A massacre at 3:30 AM, and I got completely wiped out in my sleep.
A 71% drop... in just a few minutes? That’s the story of my futures account.
Only trading futures and not spot on these coins—you’re just asking to get rekt, bro.
Woke up and my account was gone. No one escapes the market’s lessons.
This late-night pump and dump routine is so played out, yet people still fall for it. Ridiculous.
Damn, TRADOOR’s tactics are insane—a textbook example of what NOT to do.
Never touching ghost contracts again. Learned my lesson the hard way.

It’s 3:30 AM, and I was still asleep when I got played for a sucker. This operation is really something.
A 71% plummet, and I couldn't react at all in just a few minutes. Woke up to find myself bankrupt; this is the magic of contracts.
I stopped touching coins that only deal in contracts long ago; it’s too easy to get dumped on.
The market maker's play is really dirty: FOMO, bull trap, then dumping; retail investors are just cash machines.
Next time I see "phantom contract," I’ll just scroll past it; life is more important than money.
That’s why I’m mainly hoarding Spot now and touching futures less; the risks are too high.
TRADOOR is indeed ruthless, but this kind of thing happens every day; it just got exposed this time.
I’ve seen too many projects blow up in the early morning; I’m numb to it.
What’s it like to have your account wiped out in your sleep? I can’t even dare to imagine.
Next time I invest in a new coin, I need to check if there’s Spot available; I’ll directly avoid those that only have futures.

3:30 AM? I had just fallen asleep at that point, and when I woke up, I saw that I was gone, what a disaster.
It's the same old trick again, how can there still be people jumping in.
These ghost contracts are really to be avoided, a bloody lesson.
Market maker: I just love watching retail investors get liquidated in their sleep.
From 6.6 to 1.57, a 71% fall completed in just a few minutes, it's outrageous.
Wake up everyone, coins without spot trading are just playing with fire in a casino.
This wave of TRADOOR is truly a textbook-level harvest, but the price of that textbook is too high.

3:30 AM is really an incredible time, I was also sleeping soundly that day, and when I woke up, I directly saw the gas fees big pump... Wait, no, I saw TRA directly 50% Slump. A 71% fall within a few minutes, it was truly a textbook play people for suckers. I'm still pondering how those coins that only have contracts and no Spot dare to go on the exchange.

At half past three in the morning, getting played for suckers, this technique is really amazing, I almost want to applaud.
Oh my, a 71% fall disappeared in just a few minutes, it’s impossible to react at all.
I’ve long stayed away from things like ghost contracts, they’re just so damn坑.
Another classic "retail investor sends wealth" case, learned that.
This is why I only touch coins with Spot, contracts are truly a trap.
Woke up and saw the account directly social death, my mindset definitely collapsed.
Late-night market conditions are the easiest to be harvested, this time it’s proven again.
Look at this operation method, the market maker really has a set.
My fren lost money in this wave, now he doesn’t even dare to look at the market.
Those projects that only have contracts and no Spot, I don’t even look at.
The market is weak and loves to do this, after all, retail investors are the best to be played for suckers.
This wave is completely a textbook-level harvesting, nothing more to say.

3:30 AM is truly a ridiculous time, specifically targeting retail investors while they sleep.
Oh my, a 71% fall, gone in just a few minutes, who can afford this kind of trading?
I really dare not touch coins that only offer contracts with no Spot, it's too easy to play people for suckers.
