This has happened to me with many NFT projects and games for sure. There has been plenty of play to earn games that I wanted to join, I love playing games, that is what I do if I ever have some free times, and playing a game and making money sounded awesome.
From as high as axie infinity which dropped significantly and would have been a terrible investment to as old as F1 detla time which just got license revoked eventually, we are talking about plenty of projects that are getting horrible instead of any better. So, I definitely felt that JOMO in some cryptocurrencies and some tokens but mainly it was in most of the play to earn tokens for sure.
For sure there are many P2E tokens that are expensive before that are now struggling. So yes, that's JOMO for us.
Before, there's FOMO, and now JOMO. There will be a lot more of these abbreviations that people will try to create. So if you are a newbie here, you will encounter this kind of notation and you will wonder what the h*ck does it mean?
Most probably you lose to get in early and that’s why you also miss the opportunity to make money in short term but at least you’re safe in long term because of the price dump and maybe that project turns into a scam project. I usually feel this when I see new tokens, they pump at first with a good hype but after a month the price starts to correct until it hit the bottom, so yeah there’s a joy on that for not buying.
Most of these coins you will see have no solid foundation to begin with. So the dev team involved will opt to pump and dump only to gain money. And then exit the game. You will understand it once you get to know their site, whitepaper, roadmap. You can basically get an insight on where they are heading to.
