Small-cap projects should consider a different approach when building community presence. Think 60% authentic engagement and 40% growth tactics—it helps establish real foundation without overselling. For well-funded projects backed by strong teams and names? You can afford a more aggressive strategy: 90% genuine community 10% accelerated growth. The thing is, many larger projects lose sight of what actually matters. They chase metrics and inflated numbers for investor reports, but forget that a real community is built on trust and genuine participation, not bot-inflated dashboards. That's where most projects stumble.

Now everyone has learned this line, as long as the numbers look good, right? A true community? That's a luxury item. --- 90% true community, 10% growth. Just listen to it; has anyone really done that? --- Exactly, but big projects just like to nurture robots. As long as the data looks good, they can get funding. --- Small caps need to stay grounded, while large caps have already let themselves go. That's the difference. --- Trust and participation... laughable. Now it's all follow-the-trend trading, every community is fake. --- No matter how the ratio is adjusted, it can't save projects that are purely about reporting numbers. --- This hits especially hard in a bear market. Many projects are supported by fake traffic. --- It's easy to say, but few projects can truly maintain genuine interaction. --- The robot dashboard analogy is perfect; that's just how it is.

Big projects playing the same old digital game are really tiresome. A bunch of robot fans still have the nerve to give funding pitches. Is there any hope left for this community?

Honestly, those inflated numbers for big projects all end up crashing eventually. The robot community will fail sooner or later; it's better to focus on building a genuine user base. Small projects thrive with this ratio, while big projects end up collapsing. What's the use of pretty numbers? Investors aren't fools either. These days, trust is what really counts.

Genuine interaction vs fake numbers, this is the real dividing line. Projects that rely on bots to inflate data will eventually fail.

Genuine community vs. fake data, even big projects got this question wrong --- Small projects need to be sincere, while big projects tend to play虚的, which is ironic --- Having more robot fans is useless, better to have one real fan --- Exactly, inflating reports for investors, and the community collapses with just a poke --- 90% real community, this ratio is fine, but the key leaders simply can't achieve it --- Trust can't be rebuilt; once it's found to be all fake accounts, it's over

This ratio theory is correct, but there are very few projects daring to do this. The robot community should have been disqualified long ago. It's annoying to see those fake data. Big projects are actually more prone to failure, what an irony. Once trust is broken, no amount of numbers can save it. I'm directly passing on projects that are still刷机器人.
