One Second, Two Traders, BUT GAS fees really DIFFERENT and a Brutal Lesson in Hype Trading
A kind of gold-rush fever, everyone sprints, nobody thinks, and the fastest clicker wins the right to maybe make money.
But this time, the market told a different story. A harsher one.
Two traders jumped into the same pool at the same moment.
Both chasing $DOYR .
Both believing speed was the only thing that mattered. And yet⌠one tiny second separated profit from pain.
The Trader Who Tried to Buy Priority
Wallet 0xa7b5⌠wasnât just fast, they tried to force their way to the front. They stacked tips, threw gas money like confetti, and essentially paid a bribe to the mempool gods for a faster confirmation.
But the block came⌠and they were still one second too late.
They bought high. They sold low.
And they walked away $17K lighter, wondering how âdoing everything rightâ still turned into a disaster.

The Second Trader Who Slipped In Quietly, Meanwhile, 0x8A70⌠didnât fight. Didnât overpay. Didnât beg the network for mercy.
They simply⌠got in first. Their total profit?
A modest $38K, not the kind of win people imagine when they hear âlisting snipe,â but still a win carved out of chaos.

The Real Plot Twist
For years, traders fantasized about the listing meta as an easy jackpot. But this moment showed the truth: Even the winner barely won. Even the loser did everything possible.
And even a single second can flip the script from green to red.
In this market, the rush is loud, but the lesson is quiet:
Hype doesnât reward effort. It rewards precision.
