Looking at Pump.fun's trajectory over the past couple years, there's a pattern that's hard to ignore. Pretty much every major update seems engineered to squeeze more value out of traders rather than genuinely improve the ecosystem. The promised airdrop? Never materialized. Yet somehow the fanbase keeps growing, defending every move. Can't wrap my head around how that loyalty sticks around when the incentive structure keeps working against users.

You still dream of airdrops with paper hands? That cracks me up.

Are there still people accepting airdrops after all the promises have failed? That's really incredible.

Huh? Still waiting for the airdrop? That's hilarious.

NGL, this is the essence of a Ponzi scheme. Early entrants buy in, latecomers buy in, and no one cares about the ecosystem's survival.

Extracting value is indeed outrageous; airdrops are always in the next quarter.
