Family, who understands this? Just a few days ago, retail investors were shouting 'ASTER will hit $10', and now they are collectively crying in the comments section—this coin has been directly cut in half, and those trapped can queue from the exchange to the subway station! Meanwhile, I'm staring at the on-chain data and just want to say: this isn’t an unexpected crash; it's clearly a feast prepared by the whales, and the retail investors are crying as they deliver themselves as the main course!
First, let me share some valuable insights. If you understand this, you'll know why you've fallen into traps. Firstly, the overall market environment is concerning. Recently, over 200,000 retail investors went bankrupt in just one day, causing nearly $500 million in funds to evaporate instantly. Negative sentiment is piling up like a mountain. Even those 'old whales' who have held Bitcoin for over seven years are frantically selling, offloading more than 1,000 coins every hour. What does this indicate? Smart money is fleeing, and the environment is already unstable.
Looking at ASTER itself, this project is essentially "congenitally disabled." I checked its token distribution, and 96% of the tokens are held in the hands of a few wallets, which means that the pricing power of the entire market is in the hands of just a few people. They can pump it up or crash it down at will, while retail investors are just gambling on luck. Even more ironically, its valuation is higher than that of many mainstream projects, but its practical value simply cannot keep up, relying entirely on industry big shots to lend credibility. However, the support from these big shots is at most a short-term stimulant; if the project itself can't perform, it will eventually reveal its true colors.
The key point is that the whale operations have long signaled warning signs. A few months ago, some capital parties dumped tens of millions of ASTER tokens in just three days, cashing out tens of millions of dollars, causing the price to drop nearly 30%. This time it's even more brutal, directly cutting losses of a million dollars and stuffing tens of millions of dollars worth of tokens into exchanges. This isn't a stop-loss; it's precise harvesting! They are selling spot while simultaneously opening short positions to hedge, making a fortune, while retail investors are still foolishly trying to buy the dip.
Finally, a reminder for everyone: in this market, surviving is more important than making quick money. Don't blindly catch falling knives; pay attention to on-chain data. If large addresses are not stopping their selling, don't enter the market. Want to know how to interpret on-chain signals and avoid whale traps?
