When the price hits a new high, I didn't cheer along with the crowd; instead, I frowned while scrutinizing on-chain data. Over the past three months, Falcon Protocol's trading volume surged by 40%, which looks impressive. The problem is, the truly new addresses only grew by less than 12%. This is very much like a party—it's still the same group of people clinking glasses repeatedly, with hardly any new guests coming in. The engine is revving wildly, but the car isn't moving forward much.



To understand Falcon's true nature, you can't just watch the price fluctuations. You need to examine its on-chain footprint, development pace, and even those seemingly boring governance proposals, which often hide clues.

**Honestly, product iterations are indeed fierce**
Falcon doesn't hold back on feature upgrades. From its initial simple lending to now evolving into an ecosystem platform that combines derivatives and re-staking, every step has been well-paced. Especially with the new "Phoenix" leverage module, allowing users to re-mortgage interest-bearing assets, boosting capital turnover efficiency with innovative tricks. This is truly high-level design, and it's also why the market is willing to assign a high valuation.

**But there's a glaring detail behind the prosperity**
I'm used to paying attention to those inconspicuous data points. I checked recent code commit records and found a clue: in the past two months, patches labeled "urgent fix" or "rollback" have increased significantly.

What does this signal? Is the team rushing so fast that they keep bumping into issues? Or is the skyrocketing business volume testing the underlying architecture? It feels familiar—I've encountered the same problem in another project before, and this time I need to be more cautious.

Trading volume increased by 40%, but new addresses only account for 12%. The data is way off, feels a bit suspicious. The urgent fixes in code submissions definitely warrant caution; otherwise, it could lead to another爆雷. The Phoenix module looks flashy, but can its architecture handle such a high volume of business? New highs in coin prices are often the most dangerous times. New customers aren't coming, and old users are repeatedly getting liquidated. How can this possibly go far?

Trading volume increased by 40%, but new addresses are only 12%. This is outrageous; we need to look at the code commit history to uncover the truth.

Trading volume doubles, but new addresses only increase by 12%? That's just self-congratulation; you need to look at the code commit history to know what's real.

40% trading volume, 12% new addresses. These numbers speak for themselves—it's just insiders hyping themselves up.

Doubling the trading volume only results in a 12% increase in new addresses. That's outrageous. Are the same people just repeatedly flipping things around inside?

Trading volume surged by 40%, while new addresses only increased by 12%. This gap is just too outrageous... It's still the same old crowd playing with leverage for fun.

Trading volume increased by 40%, but new addresses only grew by 12%, that gap... is a bit uncomfortable. --- Code rollbacks are increasing, yet people are still hyping product iterations. Maybe they're just covering up bugs. --- When the coin price hit a new high, looking at this data, I knew it wasn't that simple. It's still the same group of people manipulating repeatedly. --- The "Phoenix" module sounds impressive, but can the underlying architecture really support it? I’m not so sure. --- I've stepped into pitfalls before, and this time, watching Falcon's rhythm feels all too familiar... --- Looking at on-chain data is much more honest than watching the coin price. Growth in new addresses is the real story. --- The team is moving too fast, causing collisions vs. architecture issues. The latter seems more likely. --- The reasons for high valuation sound good, but a sudden increase in patch fixes can very well indicate problems. --- Parties are always just a bunch of people having fun on their own. Where is the real growth?
