I considered moderately reducing my holdings risk before TGE, but to be honest, the outcome was obvious from the start — the token went straight into a party right after launch.

Some might think I was being manipulated by $TROVE's team to set the pace, but I was even more reckless. I jumped in back in October without waiting for any good news. The price back then wasn't great, but I was betting on the project itself. As a result, the subsequent trend wasn't too disappointing, although there were many ups and downs.

Looking back, this kind of investment logic seems reckless, but sometimes the market is just like that — information asymmetry, timing is crucial, and whether you can make money often depends on that early intuition.

Early information advantage is indeed the biggest alpha; those who entered in October are all tough players.

This guy got in back in October, I really admire this kind of courage. Early information gaps can be so highly profitable. Betting on projects itself is indeed a bold move, but to be honest, this time it was just good luck. Whether early intuition is reliable or not depends entirely on market temperament. If you hit the right spot, just pop the champagne. Before the TGE, I was thinking about reducing risk, but it turned out to be just wishful thinking. That's the magic of the market. Honestly, not everyone has the courage to bottom fish in October; most people are still on the sidelines. But if such an opportunity comes again next time, it's hard to say whether luck will be as good.

Early intuition may sound mysterious, but it's really just about timing the market right. October's entry was indeed aggressive. Honestly, it's mainly because others haven't reacted yet. This move definitely didn't miss, but what about next time?

October潜伏直接赚麻了，这就叫信息差啊兄弟 --- Early entry命好，我特么十一月才发现 --- Not亏就是赢，别管什么逻辑了 --- Intuition好就是本事，我特别羡慕这种敢下手的 --- TGE前减仓？图啥呢，既然看好就拿住啊 --- 说白了还是运气成分大，我也想有这种直觉 --- 团队不砸钱能涨成这样？我不太信 --- 这就是为什么我讨厌后进场，时机真的绝了

I invested at the end of October, and now it really paid off. Sometimes intuition is more reliable than analysis. Entering early requires this kind of courage. Anyway, information is always asymmetric. Instead of hesitating repeatedly, it's better to trust yourself. Honestly, I also wanted to reduce my position on TGE day, but I didn't move, and I'm glad I didn't. This is the way Web3 works. No matter how perfect the research report is, a strong belief is more valuable. I feel like many people are waiting for 100% certainty, but by then, there was no chance left.

Lurking in October? You really have some guts, but to be fair, early intuition is indeed valuable. You're truly an information gap player—being a step ahead of those waiting for news can make you a fortune. The results of this TGE indeed confirm that choosing the right project is more important than timing.

The rhetoric of information asymmetry... sounds like a post-hoc rationalization for early bottom-fishing. The real issue is that the mechanism design itself has flaws; the risk pricing before TGE simply cannot be accurately determined.
