Here’s a harsh truth: the real value of most altcoins? Close to zero.



Those altcoin leaders that were once in the spotlight—look at them now, their prices have crashed so hard it makes you question everything.

What’s the core issue? Don’t touch tokens that don’t truly capture ecosystem value. Projects like ARB, WLD, W, ZK—let’s be real, they’re just selling dreams.

There aren’t many retail investors left in the market, and these coins have massive unlocks coming up—guess who’s left holding the bag? It’s always the honest folks who put their faith in the project team’s fancy presentations.

If tokenomics are broken, no narrative can save it. Unlock dumps + liquidity drying up + no real-world use case—these three strikes mean it’s only a matter of time before it goes to zero. Stop making excuses for yourself. Take the loss if you need to.
ARB3.66%
WLD2.76%
ZK2.21%

To put it bluntly: the true value of most altcoins? Close to zero. Those copycat leaders who were once prosperous, now look back, and the price has fallen to the point where people doubt life. What is the core problem? Don't touch a token that doesn't really capture ecological value. Like ARB, WLD, W, ZK, to put it bluntly, they are pie projects. Now there are not many retail investors in the market, and the amount of these coins is still TM unlocked - guess who will take over in the end? Not those honest people who believe in the PPT of the project party. Tokenomics collapsed, and no matter how good the narrative sounded, it was useless. Unlocking the market + liquidity depletion + no practical application scenarios, it is only a matter of time before these three axes come down and return to zero. Stop giving yourself reasons, stop when it's time to stop loss.

tbh the tokenomics analysis here is surface level... actually™ if you look at the vesting schedules and emission curves, most of these projects fundamentally failed at incentive alignment from day one. the real alpha was spotting the design flaws in their smart contracts three quarters ago.

Another worthless coin here to fleece investors, it's just one after another.

Oh, another voice of reason—it’s just that there are too many bag holders. Or maybe I’m the honest one, haha. Retail investors have definitely gotten smarter these past two years, but the IQ tax never stops being collected. I saw right through that WLD move and passed on it directly. This unlock and dump trick has been played so many times, yet people still rush in.

Another story of retail investors getting fleeced. There's really no way to shake off this round.

Here comes the "harvesting leeks" talk again, but this time it really hits home. Honestly, someone should have pointed out the unlock amounts a long time ago. Cutting losses is the right move, but there are plenty of people who just leave things to fate.

Seriously, looking at the current state of those former leading coins is just incredibly ironic. There will always be bag holders; no matter how fancy the project's PPT is, it’s all for nothing. As soon as the unlock happens, liquidity dries up instantly—it's basically a death spiral.
