Interesting timing gap emerged during $NYC trading activity. The token became tradable at 10:27pm UTC, but the official community announcement didn't drop until 10:48pm UTC—that's a 21-minute window of asymmetric information. During this window, a select group could already accumulate positions before the broader market got wind of the news. This kind of timing mismatch raises questions about fair market access and information distribution in token launches. Whether intentional or not, these gaps often benefit the fastest participants while leaving retail traders behind playing catch-up. Worth keeping an eye on how projects coordinate their trading mechanics with official announcements going forward.

It's the same old trick again, a 21-minute information gap that forcibly cuts retail investors' gains.

21 mins of pure information asymmetry lol... if you run a basic markov chain analysis on order flow patterns during that window, the probability distribution literally screams front-running. but sure, let's all pretend this was "accidental"

A 21-minute information gap, it's the usual routine again.

Coming back with the same routine? 21 minutes of information gap, I've seen this before. That's why I constantly refresh Discord every time I go online, afraid of missing this kind of window. Unfortunately, us retail investors are always the last to know, and by the time the news spreads, the big players have already gobbled up everything.

It's the same old trick again, they can harvest a wave of retail investors in 21 minutes, the insider opened the position early.
