Recently, the HYPE project has become popular, with three addresses accumulating over 27 million USD in purchases within two months. This reflects the market's genuine optimism towards high-performance decentralized derivation protocols. Many leading funds are indeed treating it as a new object of follow, with significant project heat and influx of capital.

But there is a question that needs to be considered: what signal do the actions of the whales send to retail investors? To put it bluntly, it is more of a signal worth studying rather than a "follow the trend to make money" signal. The market is most prone to issues when it is in a frenzy; the key is to calm down and look at the value logic of the project itself, while also being psychologically prepared - coins with high follow often come with high volatility, and high risk is a double-edged sword.

In simple terms, investing is about balancing probability and risk-reward. The actions of whales only change one parameter in this equation, not the rules of the game itself.

I've heard too many stories of whales buying and others following. Frankly, they're just harvesters of retail investors. You need to see clearly if you're the one getting taken for a ride. Following the trend always results in losses, and this HYPE is no exception. No matter how good the words are, they can't be used as money. Everyone knows high volatility, but the problem is retail investors can't hold on. Can whales hold, and can we? 27 million sounds like a lot, but this thing can be wiped out by just a few dumps from a single address. What about risk awareness, everyone? Just want to ask, will anyone remember such a project after three months?

Whales throwing money around just to follow the trend; this mindset will eventually lead to death on the mountaintop. One must understand it thoroughly before taking action, otherwise, they'll end up as a dumb buyer.

Whales buy 27 million and think we will follow suit? Wake up, we can't see through the game they are playing. If following the trend could make money, it wouldn't be called risk. The real thought is to look at the project logic and not be blinded by the hype. I've seen plenty of suckers stumble with this high fluctuation, high risk approach. You need to think clearly about what level you can withstand. Sometimes whales are just setting traps for us, it's a competition of who can last longer. What can 27 million change? It's just one move in the game rules.

Whales throwing money, should we follow? Wake up, that's called the dumb buyer training manual. --- 27 million sounds impressive, but who knows when they'll run? --- Still the same saying, doing homework is a hundred times more important than looking at data. --- High fluctuation = high profit? No, high fluctuation = high probability of bankruptcy, if you can't figure out this calculation, better not play with derivation. --- So what if HYPE is hot, it’s not the next SOL. It's a warning. --- Capital inflow itself is a risk signal, isn't this article saying the opposite? --- Those who follow trends will never get the meat, they can only gnaw on the bones left by others. --- To put it nicely, it's called "research signals"; to put it bluntly, it's just gambling probability. Is there any essential difference? --- Even in the next dead project, there will be the shadow of whales, don't be superstitious about this.
