This has been a long time.

A little story from Shenzhen, heard from a friend at a conference.

Someone went to a Shenzhen offline meeting to ask their person in charge for 100,000 USD to support the construction of a Meme when the e-chain was just getting popular.

As expected, it was directly rejected by the person in charge, but their conversation was overheard by a big shot present, who said let me take a look at the CA, and as a result found the contract very clean, and shouted out loud, directly increasing it a hundredfold on the spot.

It can be seen that in the early stages of the project, the market was very favorable. The current x402 is like this; when ping just came out, Lao Xu publicly bought in. The tradition in the crypto space has always been to buy new and not old.

From eth—— sol——bsc——base, each chain is filled with opportunities and challenges; some became rich overnight, while others cried out in despair.

After going through a lot, I realize how precious the principal is, and choosing projects becomes even more cautious.

It's like drivers with more years of experience drive slower; my position in meme coins is also getting smaller now.

Will the base chain take over from the BSC chain and continue to write a new legend? This requires a question mark.

In the early stages of the market, you need to stack enough buffs before daring to place bets among a multitude of tokens.

X402, base, and ai, $AOE combines these three features at the same time, selecting a coin is like selecting a person, the AOE team has previously built several long-term projects.

In the current bear market phase, everyone must take responsibility for their own principal, buy new instead of old, buy right instead of wrong, and buy less instead of more.

In a great era, there is a classic saying: everyone is dead, except for me. This is the survival rule during a black swan period.
