Sometimes the best opportunity is to wait for the wind to come.

What truly triggers FOMO is never information overload, but genuine internal recognition — seeing people around you participate and starting to believe that this might be a good choice. This kind of dissemination is often more convincing.

Whether it's the stories of leading exchanges, personal comeback narratives, or the popularity of grassroots culture, the logic is the same. But what's most interesting is that projects or coins with less prominent names tend to attract the most young people.

From the post-90s to the post-00s, and to newcomers just entering the workforce, what do young people fighting alone outside need? Not advanced financial knowledge, but a simple and relatively safe way to participate. That’s why some projects, though quietly unknown, can attract the broadest young user base. The operation of market psychology is often more intriguing than the projects themselves.

I knew it, people around me are entering the market one after another. What are you still waiting for? Waiting for the right moment is really important, but most people are actually waiting for others to go first. Small projects are indeed more attractive because everyone is tired of the same old pitch for big projects. Young people just want an excuse to get in, regardless of how the project is. This wave of psychological analysis is amazing, more effective than any candlestick chart. So in the end, it still takes a word from your social circle to truly make a decision.

Smaller cryptocurrencies are really easier to break into the mainstream, while big projects are no longer being discussed.

Waiting for the wind sounds good, but all I see are the chopped leeks trembling in the wind. The more people follow the trend around me, the more I fear—that's the top. Can obscure cryptocurrencies attract young people? Honestly, it's just a strong gambling instinct. Young people need the dream of getting rich quickly, not a sense of security. FOMO is just like eating bread soaked in human blood, understand? Waiting for the wind to come is slower than waiting for a爆雷 (explosive failure). Believing just because people around you are involved—that's the fate of being harvested.
