#数字资产市场动态 I recently came across a news story that I found quite interesting. The Meme coin HNUT in the Solana ecosystem was still surging two days ago, with a market cap of 70 million and a coin price close to 7 cents. But what happened next? Within two hours, it plummeted from 7 cents straight down to $0.0003, essentially declaring death. On-chain monitoring had already detected abnormal data, and in the end, it was indeed a Rug Pull.



This caused an explosion in the community, but to be honest, I wasn't very surprised. Many people could only lament "another sh*tcoin rug pull," but I want to look at this from a broader perspective — this incident actually confirms one of my recent core judgments.

On-chain data never lies. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been observing the flow of funds: smart money is quietly adjusting its direction. What does this look like? On one hand, a large amount of capital is withdrawing from high-risk, low-market-cap Meme coins; on the other hand, these funds are continuously flowing into BTC, ETH, and projects on mainstream public chains with real ecosystems. HNUT’s rise to zero is essentially just a microcosm of the last wave of retail investors entering at the peak, greedily getting cleaned out. It’s like a warning siren, reminding the market: the bubble built purely on emotion and hype has reached the point of explosion.

What does this mean? Market sentiment is shifting. The previous FOMO (fear of missing out) will be quickly replaced by FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt), and risk aversion will heat up rapidly.

My straightforward judgment is: in the short term, within a 1 to 4-week window, the market will undergo a correction triggered by collapsing confidence and capital outflows, with altcoins and Meme sectors bearing the brunt. Coins that lack real ecosystem support and are solely maintained by stories and hype are at very high risk. In the medium term, over a 1 to 3-month cycle, this cleansing isn’t the arrival of a bear market but rather a "self-repair" process that healthy bull markets must go through. Capital and attention will return to value-driven tracks — projects with real user bases and sustainable revenue, such as DeFi projects and infrastructure tokens, will have the opportunity to lead the next wave of gains once the emotional dust settles.

Ultimately, top traders are not competing to see who makes the fastest profit on sh*tcoins, but who can survive the longest and see through the market. I’ve always emphasized the importance of on-chain fund flows and warned against irrational market exuberance. The HNUT case is the best textbook written in real money by the market. The market is always teaching us lessons; the key is whether you’re willing to learn.

Another sucker cleaned out in the wash, serves you right --- Smart money has already pulled out, retail investors are still buying in --- That's why I only stick to BTC and ETH, everything else is gambling --- Rugged several times and still people dare to chase Meme coins, I really can't believe it --- On-chain data has already shown anomalies, only regretting after the rug --- Short-term is indeed risky, but when the next market wave starts, FOMO will come again --- What sounds nice is called self-repair, but actually it's big players cutting the leeks --- Two friends of mine around me lost half on HNUT, now they are starting to look into DeFi --- Top traders know when to run, but people on HNUT didn't manage to escape --- Monitoring fund flow into BTC is quite accurate, you can refer to it

The smart money has already left, retail investors are still counting money in their dreams.

It's the same story again, smart money has already run away, retail investors are the bagholders. Let's see what those who are hyping HNUT have to say now. Really, on-chain flow doesn't lie, I have also observed it. This round of cleansing is likely to continue, and the meme sector is looking grim. BTC and ETH are the safe havens; others should temporarily stay on the sidelines. There will probably be fluctuations within a week, but the overall trend is already set. Living longer > making quick profits, I agree with that.

Puppy coin crashes again, so what? Smart money has already run away. Once again, retail investors are being harvested as a textbook example. Take a good look at the on-chain fund flows. The HNUT rug pull is essentially the market cleansing irrational bagholders. It's uncomfortable in the short term, but in the long run, this is the market's self-healing process. Don't panic. It dropped from 7 cents to 0.0003 in two hours—that's the fate of pure hype bubbles. Smart money has already quietly shifted into BTC and ETH, but most people haven't noticed. The market is always teaching us lessons. The question is whether you're willing to learn from them. It feels like this cleansing has just begun, and the Meme sector will face even tougher times ahead.
