The operating method of the LIGHT project is indeed worth analyzing. The initial issuance was 4.2e, but the market maker, holding 95% of the chips, directly changed the circulating supply parameter from 4.2e to 4200w through smart contracts - equivalent to inflating their holdings' value tenfold overnight.
This move seems technical, but it is actually the most blatant harvesting logic. New retail investors have no idea what is going on; they just see the price moving and follow the trend to buy in. By the time liquidity is truly released and the secondary market reacts, it is already too late.
What’s even more heartbreaking is that these kinds of tricks have actually always existed on the chain, as long as the code permissions are designed loosely enough. Project teams in the crypto space can increase value tenfold just by changing parameters, and this risk density is more direct than any technical fluctuations. If anyone still dares to hold long positions, it can only be said that their understanding of the on-chain operational logic is insufficient. The next step is likely to be a plunge.

It's that trap again, change a parameter and the 95% of chips increase tenfold, retail investors are just giving away money.

lol supply elasticity gone rogue... classic ponzinomics with extra steps. holder concentration that naked should've been a red flag day one, tbh.

Another classic contract parameter magic show... change 95% of the chips to a number and it's 10 times, this operation is really amazing.

It's the same old story, changing parameters to pump, the retail investors are always the dumb buyers.

It's the same routine again, changing parameters to pump, ten times in one night, while retail investors are still there catching a falling knife.
