True community resilience often reveals itself during bear markets.

Take $kurumi as a typical example—when the token price pulls back, other project communities might fall silent or start blaming each other, but they continue building both online and offline. Instead of obsessing over short-term price swings, they focus on long-term value accumulation. This is what a mature community should look like.

What's even more interesting is the recent targeted crackdown. Some forces attempted to manipulate the meme rank to cause a sharp drop, but after a brief fluctuation, it quickly bounced back into the top three. After all the back-and-forth, they remain firmly in the top position.

When the market is good, everyone is shouting and hyping up projects. But when tested, it's clear who is just swimming naked and who is honing their skills. Projects that survive this round of reshuffling often have the potential to traverse cycles. After all, the rules of elimination are simple: what doesn't kill you will eventually become your badge of honor.
