We've all seen this scene: a new coin launches and immediately plunges. Such intense volatility is often unrelated to the project itself—the real drivers are those liquidity mining farmers rushing to arbitrage and exit. To be honest, there's nothing wrong with that. But the root of the problem often lies elsewhere: a lack of healthy trading depth, early speculators dumping en masse, and market participants ignoring fundamentals. To achieve steady long-term gains, you need to focus on the project's actual development rather than betting on short-term price games.

Farmers are indeed annoying, but the ones really harvesting the profits are still those big players. Coins with shallow liquidity shouldn't be touched in the first place.

Missed so many opportunities, I've seen through it — that's how the crypto world is. Liquidity farmers finish a round and run away, while retail investors are still there buying the dip.

Farmer arbitrage exit... To put it plainly, it's the fate of capital, nobody's fault
---
It's the same old story, liquidity mining, concentrated selling... I've heard it so many times my ears are calloused
---
Lack of depth is the real culprit; farmers are just scapegoats
---
Fundamentals? That stuff was never looked at during a bull market
---
Long-term returns sound good, but who the hell can wait that long
---
It's quite heartbreaking, what was said is true but useless
---
The people who won the price game have already sold, we're still in self-congratulation
---
Lack of trading depth = lack of buyers, honestly, it's still a game for the whales

It's a common saying, the supply line is cut off, and the front line is about to collapse. These liquidity farmers are just cannon fodder; the real battle is in the fundamentals.

I'm not here to listen to the fundamentals; arbitrage farmers are right—it's all just a game of harvesting the leeks anyway.
