With this move by AIOT, we’ve basically seized the opportunity together—my previous analysis article is still available, you can go back and check it out.
But let me remind you—today it’s the same old formula.
AIOT launched a trading competition, and on the surface, it seemed lively and bustling. But what’s the reality? The project team took advantage of the surge in liquidity during the event and dumped $3.4 million on the market to cash out. To put it plainly, they waited for retail investors to rush in and provide liquidity, then swiftly harvested profits without hesitation.
We’ve seen this kind of play too many times—trading competitions, airdrop campaigns, they’re often the perfect timing for the big players to offload their bags. By the time everyone jumps in, they’re already prepared to sell.
So, when participating in these kinds of events, you really need to stay sharp. Liquidity is a double-edged sword—you’re injecting vitality into the market, but you could just as easily become someone else’s ATM.

Here we go again? Trading competitions are just exit liquidity feasts, bro.
---
$3.4 million dumped just like that, and retail investors are still cheering.
---
Liquidity is a double-edged sword, that's for sure. When providing it, you better know whether you're a player or just waiting to be slaughtered.
---
It's the same old recipe, but people still fall for it every time. That's just ridiculous.
---
So before participating, you need to ask yourself: Is this event really for my benefit, or am I just handing over my money?
---
All the hype is just a cover for traps behind the scenes. You really can't trust this crypto space.
---
Wait, is it confirmed that AIOT is directly dumping this time? Or is this just another round of wash trading?
---
When liquidity surges, that's when you should be on alert. This is such an old trick.

The manipulation is so obvious, yet people still rush in—truly unbelievable.
The same old routine of dumping and cashing out, the script never changes.
Here comes another round of "trading competition" used as a harvesting trick.
I just want to ask, when will retail investors ever learn?
Calling it a liquidity ATM is spot on.
Just watching this is exhausting; might as well just lay flat.

3.4 million cashed out directly, this trick is really old-fashioned.
They really treat retail investors like suckers. As soon as the trading competition starts, you know someone’s going to dump the price.
Don’t rush in, watch carefully before you act.
The whales rely on this move to fleece retail investors, we need to be smarter.
I’ve seen this playbook several times before, nothing new here.

Here we go again? Just one dump of 3.4 million and it's over, retail investors are really just serving themselves up to the whales.

Calling liquidity a double-edged sword is spot on. To put it bluntly, we're just destined to be the ones getting rekt.
---
Trading competitions, airdrops... just hearing the names should make you cautious. These are all preludes to getting harvested.
---
So, all those flashy activities are just traps behind the scenes. Wake up, everyone.
---
They dump 3.4 million just like that, the efficiency is insane, while we bag holders are still getting excited.

That ATM analogy is perfect, it hits the nail on the head. Next time I see this kind of event, I’ll definitely think twice.
