I don’t get the meme ”Project X is launching a token so the VCs can get liquidity”. Yes, a token provides liquidity eventually but: 1. Most teams and investors have a lock up. So by definition airdrop recipients are getting liquidity far before the team or investors. 2. No one is forcing you to buy the asset. If you truly believe it’s a liquidity “scam” don’t participate. And if you get an airdrop, sell immediately. 3. The straw man that “other retail will get tricked into buying it” is intellectually dishonest. For the vast majority of cases, the people who lose money trading a token are speculators who know the rules of the game. It’s 2025, not 2017.

1. They sell on OTC their allo or short their locked token size during the exit pump. 2. True, but some teams do sophisticated circus ceremonies to deceive ppl with assimiteric information 3. I see where you are coming from. I am not a trader and am into stables for that precise reason. but still you can't justify with that market manipulations, plain deception, setting wrong expectations from teams etc. I am a bit sleepy but I really disagree with you on this one so had to comment
