Volume transparency is my first filter. If I can't trace where the trading activity is actually coming from - whether it's organic retail, whale accumulation, or wash trading - I'm staying out. Too many projects pump numbers that vanish under basic on-chain scrutiny. Not worth the risk.

That's right, but very few people can actually do this.

Only when I can trace back to the authentic source of the transaction do I dare to participate. I respect that.

The truth is, on-chain data can lie, but the signs of wash trading can't fool people.

ngl, on-chain forensics is literally the only way to separate signal from noise rn. seen way too many projects collapse the second you pull the verifcation layer back lmao

Numbers can lie, but the blockchain won't. That's what I focus on.

Now I understand that real liquidity must be considered; surface data can be deceptive.
On-chain data is so easy to fake, I don't even know who is still playing this game.
Agreed, there are too many fake volumes; only act after thorough tracking.
Once scrutinized, the true nature is revealed. That's why I am very cautious.
I generally avoid opaque assets; the risks are too high.

Someone should have said this earlier: on-chain data is the truth, everything else is just performance.

That's right, it's easy to see through manipulation, so it's really not interesting.
