Are platforms and mechanisms really that important?

Not important at all.
So what is the most important?
The wealth effect is the most important.
No matter how crappy the chain, no matter how crappy the mechanism,
as long as there is a wealth effect,
people will follow.
If a wealth creation target with a market cap of a few million USD appears,
it might attract a small wave of people to play.
If a wealth creation target with a market cap of tens of millions USD appears,
it will attract a group of people to play.
If a target with a market cap of hundreds of millions USD appears,
it will stir up a hot trend across the entire chain.
On the Solana chain, one "ansem" reached a market cap of 400 million USD.
Immediately after, the BSC chain produced a "cz" with a market cap of 60-10k USD to divert the flow.
This is also a form of following the trend.
So how can we revive the dead BRC-20 inscriptions on the Bitcoin chain?
How can we eliminate the bad practice of single-player self-minting scam inscriptions?
When a single-player scam inscription launches with a market cap set at hundreds of millions USD, what else could they be after besides a rug pull?
This also means they have little upside,
little wealth effect, little wealth multiplier.
At most, two or three times is the ceiling.
But a fairly minted target
can easily achieve wealth multipliers of hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of times.
Scam inscriptions cannot compare to this at all.
The target audience of scam inscriptions is the low-end poor group, desperately longing for overnight riches.
Two or three times simply cannot solve any of their problems.
Thousands or tens of thousands of times are the dreams of retail investors.
The market is sluggish,
mining machines are shutting down,
miners are on the verge of bankruptcy.
At this time, whoever can fire the first shot of wealth creation for BRC-20 inscriptions
will attract the current retail investors in the market,
recreating the thousand-fold and ten-thousand-fold myths of Ordi and Rats.
Single-player scam inscriptions do not have retail investors participating in the minting phase, only in the high-level buy-in phase.
So there is no initial user base at all—absolutely none.
All they have are clueless aunties who were hard-sold, scammed, and brainwashed through various events and meetings after launch.
Although these people participate in fake blockchain and fake inscription projects that are a wolf in sheep's clothing,
they are actually potential players in the real inscription market.
If at this point the inscription market launches a fairly minted target
with some multiplier,
these aunties will turn their attention to it.
Turning 10k into 20k is certainly attractive, and it could also go to zero at any time.
But turning 1,000 into 1M is not just attractive—it subverts their entire cognitive system.
To kill scam single-player inscriptions,
you only need to provide a wealth multiplier that they cannot offer.
