There's an interesting phenomenon when observing holder purity—once the purity maxes out, phrases like "won't sell until xx" start flooding everywhere. This is actually a sign that collective thinking is becoming rigid. What happens next? That's usually when everyone gets a harsh lesson.
Over the years, there have been countless crashes, but Pepe seems to be an exception. When it promised $10 billion, it really pushed all the way to $10 billion—pretty straightforward. On the other hand, look at Doge or Ordi and the like. Back then, people hyped up grand visions of $1, $100, or even $1,000. And the result? Prices usually hit 70-80% of those targets before crashing down, leaving broken dreams everywhere 🥹

When purity is maxed out, it's time to get out—this is a hard-learned lesson.
The so-called target price is always a joke. Pepe is indeed special, but that doesn't mean the next one will be too.
Anyone still shouting that they won't sell until a certain number this round is basically doomed to be the bagholder.
All those promises hyped up for Doge back then seem ridiculously ironic in hindsight.
By the time everyone is collectively shouting a certain number, the smart ones have already slipped away.

Ordi is just getting started... it needs time to mature.

When purity is maxed out, it's time to run. I've seen this trick too many times. The Pepe wave was really absurd—most of it was just hype.

When purity is maxed out, that's when you should be cautious. I've really seen too many people shouting "won't sell unless it's over 1000," only to cry their eyes out when it gets cut in half.
That Pepe wave was indeed tough, all the other coins are just putting on a show.
Cognitive rigidity is always the prelude to losing money, without exception.

Pepe really is an outlier. Instead of hyping things up, it's honestly ridiculously straightforward, while all the others are just masters of shattered dreams.
The worst feeling is waiting to get dumped on. Every time it hits seventy or eighty, it starts to turn around.

Pepe really went hard this time. While other coins get hyped up only to end in disappointment, Pepe actually delivered on its promises. That’s real strength.
Honestly, those people shouting they won’t sell until a certain price are basically setting themselves up to be taken advantage of.
The purer the conviction, the more dangerous it is. This trick gets played out year after year, yet people still don’t learn.
Remember Doge’s promises back in the day? They’re a joke now. Only Pepe is still holding up its narrative.
Stop blindly shouting target prices. Recognizing reality is more important than anything, or you’ll eventually learn the hard way.

Once the hype reaches peak purity, they start bragging—that trick is all too familiar, and every time that's when people get rekt.
Pepe is really something else; they say what they mean and do what they say. Other coins are just masters at selling pipe dreams.
"Won't sell until xx," huh, just wait to get taught a lesson, everyone.
All those things Doge was hyped up about back then—where are they now? Long gone into thin air.
Cognitive rigidity = market top. This rule is spot on.
Ordi’s story is a textbook-level cautionary tale—believe it and you're doomed.
They start dumping when it's only up 70-80%, that's some ruthless tactics.
Pepe is actually pretty decent, unlike some coins that change their face as soon as they hit the peak.
When everyone is bragging together, that's the time to run—it's survival wisdom.
These people really need to wake up; it's always the same script every time.

When purity is maxed out, that's actually the most dangerous moment—this really makes sense. The whole "won't sell until xx" mentality is just self-delusion for bagholders.
That Pepe wave was truly insane; there are very few tokens that actually follow the supposed playbook. Doge and Ordi were hyped to the moon, but in the end, they just became cash grabs—who hasn't been dumped on before?
Rigid beliefs are a death trap; it's time to wake up.
