This move is indeed a bit regrettable. In the early days, after positioning in the bottom with Snowball, I started taking profits when it reached 10x, thinking that was the safest approach. But then it unexpectedly surged to an 875x rally. Replaying the project path, Snowball essentially replicates the gameplay of the Solana ecosystem; from a pure mechanism perspective, there’s nothing particularly revolutionary. But this precisely highlights a harsh reality: sometimes emotions indeed override technology.
The real killer feature of a project lies in its community. When the community is active, the probability of a token going viral greatly increases. This is not just storytelling; it’s a fact repeatedly validated by the market. A strong community can drive public opinion, gather consensus, and boost liquidity, ultimately pushing up the token price. That’s also why projects with seemingly mediocre mechanisms can unexpectedly succeed. So the lesson this time is: don’t completely exit just because of early gains. The projects worth paying attention to are those with vitality and sustainability in their communities.

Missed out on the 875x rally... No matter how strong the technicals are, they can't compete with community enthusiasm. Ultimately, it still depends on who can stir up the emotions.

10x and it ran away, this mentality is really incredible... 875x, brother, how regretful
The community is the real moat; no matter how fancy the mechanism, it’s less reliable than a group of loyal fans
If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have been so eager to take profits. Now I’ve learned my lesson

Missing out on 875x by just 10x take profit... that must be so frustrating... But to be honest, the fact that the mechanism can surge wildly is indeed the community setting the pace, I admit that.

10x just ran away... Bro, you need to change your mindset; the community is the real money printer.

10x just ran away, this mentality is really steady... Turns out I got wiped out by 875x, it's a bit upsetting.
The community is indeed awesome, but the mechanism has become just a decoration? Then maybe I can clear out that "revolutionary" project I previously all-in on.

Did it run away with 10x? Bro, that must be so exhausting... An 875x right in front of you is a slap in the face, and the community is the real key to success.
