Open the latest hot topics in major crypto discussion forums, and almost all of them are saying "Some tech mogul is pushing Dogecoin again," as if missing this wave means missing a life-changing opportunity. But I have to ask a straightforward question: are you really investing in Dogecoin, or are you betting on one person's influence?

Over the years, I've seen too many ups and downs in the crypto market. I want to honestly say: Dogecoin's prospects have never depended on those tweets and retweets; the key is whether it can shed its "joke coin" label. Frankly, it hasn't succeeded so far.

Let's talk about something practical. Assets that truly stand firm in the crypto space rely not on fan sentiment but on solid value consensus. Why has Bitcoin gone so far? Because it is the cornerstone of the entire crypto ecosystem. Why has Ethereum risen? Because smart contracts have opened up limitless application possibilities. As for Dogecoin, it was born as a joke to mock Bitcoin, with the core selling point being "fun and community." Over the years, there hasn't been much technological innovation, nor have the application scenarios expanded much. The only thing that has grown is the size of its fan base.

What is the most dangerous thing here? Emotions are too unreliable. Today, you go all-in because of a good news, and tomorrow, panic sell because of negative news. Behind this rollercoaster market are retail investors cutting their losses. Remember the 40% crash in 2021? How many people got caught chasing the rally and are still holding the bag?

Ultimately, investing is about investing, not following the crowd. Instead of obsessing over every move of big V influencers, ask yourself: what practical applications does this asset have? What is its technical roadmap? How is the ecosystem building? Are there real usage demands? Only when these questions have clear answers is it worth paying long-term attention. Investing based on emotions often results in bloody lessons.

Pump and dump, but if the technicals don't keep up, it's just funny. Data will speak When retail investors go all-in, it's our hedging opportunity. Just look at the 2021 wave Emotional trading? Too inefficient. I only look at on-chain evidence Run a regression analysis on the loss rates of those chasing highs and selling lows—it's absolutely shocking Rather than betting on a big V's single tweet, it's better to calculate your own capital efficiency ratio

There's nothing wrong with that. A group of people blindly following the trend to buy Dogecoin and calling it investment, but in reality, it's just gambling. Chasing big V's (influencers) can indeed lead to quick profits, but those who sell at a loss are always the ones who come later. It's still about technology and ecosystem; otherwise, you'll crash sooner or later. If you only follow tweets and updates every day, you'll eventually have to pay tuition fees.

It's another old tune of "Investing is not gambling," but my big brother is right, I’m cracking up. --- Brothers who got caught in 2021 are still holding on, stopping loss is indeed more fragrant than chasing the rise. --- Laughing to tears, we’ve all become marionettes of big V influencers. --- Dogecoin has been alive these years just on one person's tweets. To put it nicely, it's community culture; to be blunt, it's a game of hot potato. --- Meme warning: After reading this article, I realize I might be the embodiment of "emotional decision-making." --- Data speaks for itself. No innovation in technology, no expansion in application—that's the real flaw. --- Today’s leek diary: I realize I’m not investing, but gambling on a billionaire’s mood. --- The key is still that question: Is there a real usage demand? Can Dogecoin articulate that? --- Tears mixed with laughter, take a look at where your stop-loss line is set.

Still scamming retail investors, a single word from a big V can make people go all in, hilarious After all this time, it's still a joke coin, no real technical progress That wave in 2021 left me stunned, and many are still stuck in it now Rather than staring at tweets, ask yourself what this thing can actually be used for Emotional market movements are the scariest; chasing gains today and being trapped tomorrow No technological innovation, no expansion of application scenarios, why should I be optimistic long-term? Instead of following the trend, it's better to study ecosystem development and genuine needs The big V halo has faded, how long can the coin price hold up?
