Crypto players, to put it bluntly, are all about chasing profits. No matter the concept or the story, it all boils down to one word: earn. Solana and Pump have had their moments too, but as soon as there's no meat left on the bone, the retail investors bolt faster than a market crash during a bull run. CZ is the smart one—he keeps rolling out combo moves, not just spinning stories but actually letting people make money. That’s why both traffic and funds stick to him. On the other hand, Solana and Pump, without a CEX backing them, are like street performers without a speaker—no matter how loud they shout, they can’t draw a crowd. If they really want a comeback, maybe they need to dust off the old FTX brand. Even if it’s reheated leftovers, it could still stir up some nostalgia. After all, in this market, the profit-making effect is the first principle. Narratives are just seasoning—if they lose their flavor, no one’s buying.
