Once major developments unfold, the real question becomes: how do retail liquidity flows get redirected in speculative cycles? Some might argue that low-conviction positions get strategically liquidated while higher-tier players accumulate the real assets—essentially using less sophisticated market participants as exit liquidity for concentrated bets. It's the classic asymmetric game. The crypto community keeps circulating these patterns without acknowledging the mechanics underneath. The conversation rarely shifts from hype to actual risk distribution.

Coming back with this again? Big players are cutting retail investors' liquidity, and we're still there picking up the pieces.

A typical story of nurturing new investors: big players profit while small investors get cut.

Basically, it's just the old trick of big players harvesting retail investors; we're still here happily clueless.

It's the same old trick again—big players eat the meat, small investors drink the soup. While we're still studying the technical aspects, they've already started their layout.

That hits close to home; retail investors are really just doomed to be exploited.

On-chain data shows that this vampire mechanism has long been embedded in the contract logic.
Retail investors are still watching the K-line, while big players have already set the liquidation price. As expected.
