What I have realized ever since I started paying attention to the KOLs on
@base is the disconnect between words and action
"I/we support base builders" is a statement that many embrace, which isn't incorrect, but its said with a missing caveat - "I/we support base builders as long as I get a cheap enough entry on their project so that I can shill it comfortably"
More often than not, the groups following such KOLs assume that they are buying dips / holding when in reality they bought cheap and have probably gotten some free tokens to push it on X
When things turn south, they are the first ones to exit
You'll learn later that they have indeed sold and in some cases, they would keep some pocket change in case a turnaround happens
On the other hand, there are honest guys with audiences on X who actually disclose their shills and support projects they believe in
There is also a very tiny minority that analyzes projects from an unbiased state
The latter is a much smaller percentage
Hoping to see the weight shift over time as we filter out the former
I believe that we'll get there in time
