Recently, I’ve seen many group members get trapped in a certain project, holding screenshots of their positions and asking what to do. I want to share my thoughts.
**Point 1: When you’re caught, you must sell immediately.** Don’t hold onto hope; if you realize your judgment was wrong, correct it right away. This is always the safest approach. I know some people regret selling after watching the price rebound, but that’s not an investment decision; that’s gambling luck. Building decisions on speculation will not lead to good results in the long run.
**Point 2: Can this project manipulate the market?** Honestly, in this kind of bloodbath, many holders probably haven’t sold out. The project team usually waits until retail investors are forced to sell at a loss before they consider manipulating the market, but Alpha participants can only hold out for 2 days at best. They will either stop playing Alpha in the future or cut their losses and exit.
**Point 3: The fundamental issue is the project team’s credibility.** Using this kind of tactic to play the project, especially on a major exchange, will definitely not end well; there’s basically no way out. In such cases, the project team is very likely to run away directly and will no longer consider market manipulation.

That's quite straightforward, but I've seen this trick too many times. The old saying still applies—cut your losses decisively, or you'll just be waiting to get wiped out.

Honestly, there's nothing to regret about cutting losses; staying alive is the real winner.

Cutting losses is the art of staying alive; otherwise, you're just waiting to become a piece of chives art.

Bro, this analysis is spot on. It's exactly what I wanted to say—cutting losses is never wrong.

To be honest, this time it's clear that the project team is just waiting for us to sell off.

Cutting losses is really the first reaction. I've seen too many people wail with screenshots.
The project team probably ran away long ago. After losing credibility, they still want to manipulate the market.
If you're trapped, you're trapped. Don't fantasize. Accepting the loss and exiting is the way to go.
Projects with this kind of scheme should be taken down. So annoying.

That's reasonable; cutting losses is always less costly than holding onto illusions.
Honestly, 90% of these projects are just scams to siphon money. Wake up, brother.
If you're wrong, just run. Don't wait for miracles; that's not investing.
I even want to laugh at those still trying to pump the market now; the project team has already run away.
This is the fate of deep bag holders; accepting losses and exiting is the only way out.
Once the credit is shattered, what prospects are left for the project? Give up, everyone.
The lesson I learned this time is to blacklist these kinds of schemes; they're really not worth it.
Winning once doesn't mean you're skilled; surviving to the next round makes you the real winner.

That's right, cutting losses is also a way to make money. I've learned this lesson the hard way many times.
