Recently, I took stock of the loss situation among GEC participants, and it is truly shocking—funds amounting to thousands of U.S. dollars ending up completely wiped out. What does this reflect behind the scenes?



In fact, this is the most classic tactic in the crypto market: sophisticated packaging, enticing promises, and seemingly reasonable logic. Many players enter without conducting proper due diligence, rushing in with only a superficial understanding of the project's fundamentals. Even more heartbreaking is that if these funds were used to systematically research genuinely consensus-driven potential projects, or even to make moderate allocations during some early opportunities, the results could be entirely different.

The term "Pixiu盘" has been circulating in the market for a long time, characterized by only entering and not exiting. Many people know this but still keep pouring money in, and the psychological game behind this is worth deep reflection. Investors who have suffered losses are often defeated by FOMO emotions and herd mentality.

Honestly, these lessons from losses are very valuable to the entire community. Recognizing people is easy, recognizing projects is hard. Next time you see a similar opportunity, take three minutes to calm down and ask yourself: Does this logic stand up to scrutiny? Does the team have tangible output? Is there genuine community consensus? Sometimes, missing an opportunity is far less terrifying than falling into a trap.

GEC? more like "gone, empty, crushed" lmao. ngl the only thing more predictable than these rugpulls is watching people YOLO their rent money into them anyway. classic move: skip the DD, catch the FOMO, get wrecked, repeat.

GEC, to put it simply, is greed killing people... Do those people really think they can make money from the whales? Wake up. People still need to be rational; not all seemingly reasonable logic can be trusted. FOMO is really a devil; once you fall into it, it's hard to get out. Losing thousands of dollars, how painful must that be... but this kind of lesson indeed doesn't change many people's minds. Clear-headed investors know what a Pigu盘 is, but they still jump in—this psychology is quite worth studying. Instead of waiting to step into a pit, it's better to thoroughly research the project to avoid regrets. Actually, many people never intended to do due diligence; they just saw a few community messages and rushed in. These incidents are happening more and more; the community should learn a lesson.

Oh no, I've seen this GEC scam before. This kind of scheme is the most disgusting. It's both FOMO and only entering without exiting, truly outrageous. Do people really keep throwing money into it? Due diligence isn't really hard, but nobody does it. If I had known, I would have just gone all-in on projects with real consensus. Missing opportunities vs. getting scammed, I choose the former. At least I can recover.
