To see if a project is reliable or not, I usually don't look at the K-line first. I check three things: whether GitHub has ongoing updates (not just a bunch of small changes every day), whether the audit report clearly states the issues and whether they've actually fixed them afterward, and whether the upgrade permissions are multi-signature/time lock rather than "admin one-click contract modification." Basically, these three can turn "I trust you" into "I roughly understand how you might do evil or get hacked."
Recently, social mining and fan tokens are hot again; everyone is mining attention... I admit attention is valuable, but I care more about whether the contract and permissions can be clearly explained. Don’t end up digging for a long time only to find out it’s just providing exit liquidity for others.
My simple way to avoid impulsive trades: when I want to buy, I first check the permissions and the latest upgrade record, then quickly close the trading page for 5 minutes. If I still want to buy after coming back, then I do it; many impulsive decisions are just tricked by my own "internal yield rate." That’s it for now.
