Most tokens function primarily as attention mechanisms rather than genuine value capture instruments. The disconnect remains puzzling—why hasn't this fundamental distinction become common understanding in the space?

It's been so many years, and we're still discussing whether tokens have value... To be honest, this question is like asking "Why do people keep jumping in even though everyone knows retail investors get exploited?" Wake up, brother, attention itself is value.

Honestly, this is just a bunch of scam coins playing the attention game. I've seen through it long ago.

To be honest, most tokens in the crypto circle are just a front for cutting leeks, and very few can truly capture value. Why is this understanding so hard to popularize... It's really baffling.

People in the crypto world really love to deceive themselves. They know that most coins are just attention harvesters, yet they insist on fabricating stories of "value capture." Wake up, everyone.

Really, most cryptocurrencies are just a game of attention... to put it plainly, they're just tools for harvesting retail investors.

Honestly, most tokens are just a traffic business with no real intrinsic value... But why does no one understand this? I'm speechless.

Basically, everyone is just playing "pass the drum and pass the flower," and no one really wants to figure out what they are holding. Someone should have clarified this long ago.

Basically, everyone is playing the attention game. True value capture? That's a different matter.
