No Investment advices, Some Summaries

In 2017 marked the ICO era where public fundraising replaced traditional VC and PE investments, leading to a bull market driven by OG platforms and proxy investments—profits were almost guaranteed for those who got in. Fast forward to 2021, DeFi's rise diversified the market, requiring swift action to capitalize on gains. IEOs also emerged, allowing project parties to offer shares to users at launch, often leading to profitable outcomes. However, legal risks have since curbed IEOs, making airdrops and market pricing the norm. Successful projects like BB and Lista demonstrate stability, though the rapid pace lacks sufficient market correction processes.

The 2024 surge was fueled by BTC ETF, with king-level projects and Lumao Studio leading the charge, attracting significant VC funding and millions of users. Projects no longer rely solely on specific platforms, as they can choose from numerous CEXs and DEXs, maintaining strong fundamentals beyond market value alone. However, the market's dynamics have shifted again, with Lumao Studio and L2 projects clashing and the former's dominance waning.

Today's market features more sophisticated participants with advanced risk-hedging tools, expanding the market size. For ordinary investors, past strategies like the 2017 ICO, 2021 IEO, and recent quick-profit tactics may no longer be viable. Fewer VCs and project parties might signal a healthier market, but investment success remains rare across cycles. Whether in web2 or web3, very few startups endure. Therefore, investment remains risky, and caution is essential.
