Imagine a NEW crypto with the Name 'Rope' has a trading volume of over 5 millions usd on uniswap. A visit to the website '
https://rope.lol/" has a BOLD Image of a hanging rope with further inscription 'Do not buy it' followed with a grinding face that looked like someone who got scammed.
In a summary, the webpage is saying. do not buy 'ROPE' you could loose everything and you will regret it. But the reverse is the case. As a matter of fact. this token made 118%
within 24 hours of listing and have a volume of 5 millions usd on Uniswap.
My observation on this. Most people no longer care about the objectives of a project. they just want to Make
GAINS.
the days of do your Research is fast diminishing and most market users cared less about what they do with their money that they can invest on a project with BOLD description "this is a scam' as long as there is a return.
i tried to trade the token but after visiting the site, i lost my little sense in trading on uniswap.
BE CAREFUL....

You carefully stated the obvious fact, and that's the truth. People no longer care about the idea or whatever behind the project, what they care for is pump and gains, nothing more. Yet this same set of people will be the first to lament when it goes sideways or dumps heavily on them. Also, I just like to add my opinion; first the team added a rope to the website meaning anything can happen, and when it does no one is to blame them. Now secondly, I do not think that it is investors that started the pump of that project, it could be the team that started it knowing that many people are heavily moved by pump and trading volume, so it could be that they started the pump, people threw caution to the wind and joined the game just to cash out and the volume keeps rising. For such a project, the team might have a target and once attained, the will exit scam.
Furthermore, there is need to be extremely careful of most projects on Uniswap, because with what is happening, many scam projects might still come up, leverage the hype Uniswap has and scam people.
So therefore, in all things, those who still make their own research most of times wins because those who failed to, might make gains in one project only to lose it all in another.
