After so many years in the crypto world, we've seen countless projects hype themselves up wildly during bull markets, only to reveal their true colors when the bear market hits. Those claiming to be "community-driven" often have communities that are just sand—when the price drops, people leave, chats cool down, and topics fade away.



But there are exceptions. Take #数字资产市场动态 as an example. When external pressure increases, the community's cohesion actually strengthens. It's not just talk; they're really working. Where does this resilience come from? The key is that the community has shifted its mindset from "speculating on coins" to "building."

Short-term traders see the price drop and immediately cut their losses and leave. But that's actually a good thing—the market helps filter out those only seeking quick arbitrage. Who remains? Those who genuinely believe in the project's mission and want to turn education empowerment into a long-term effort.

In a bear market, you can see the most authentic side of the community. People no longer obsess over daily price fluctuations but instead focus on in-depth discussions: how to implement the next donation site? how to optimize course content to better match local children's learning progress? These seemingly indirect tasks are quietly accumulating—streamlining processes, strengthening partnerships, and building operational experience. These intangible assets may not immediately boost the coin's price, but they lay the most solid foundation for the project to weather any market cycle.

Many think the bear market is a period of stagnation, but for some projects, it's actually the best window for development. Communities that remain active and continue producing tangible progress against the trend are themselves a rare asset. Time will prove everything.

To be honest, in a bear market, the淘汰 happens quickly, but the real talent and projects also stay behind.

Absolutely right. You've really sifted out the sand. There are indeed projects still working during the bear market, not just talk. That batch of quick buy and sell, actually leaves those who stay behind in peace. Discussing whether the coin price will rise or fall and donating locations—this is what the community should be doing. Riding through cycles relies on this, not just empty talk. I've seen too many hype artists during the bull market, and their projects disappear as soon as the bear market hits. The difference is—those who genuinely want to do things and those only chasing quick profits, all exposed in a bear market. Intangible assets may seem insignificant, but in the long run, they are truly a moat. I agree with the idea of a construction window during the bear market; most projects indeed waste this opportunity. Community cohesion actually strengthens under pressure, and this quality is indeed rare.

Well said, that's exactly how a genuine project gets through tough times. --- Only projects like $Max have real confidence, not afraid of the coin price dropping. --- The bear market slaughter knife truly reveals who is serious about their work. --- Again, a project team is just hyping themselves up. Do they have real data? --- Sounds good, but I've heard the phrase "educational empowerment" too many times. --- When the community has no one left, claiming it's filtering is a perfect excuse. --- Accumulating execution experience? First, stabilize the coin price before bragging. --- That's why I only work with top-tier projects; everyone else is a scammer. --- Active in a bear market ≠ value. It still depends on what the real data shows. --- Projects committed to education are indeed rare, but is $Max really doing it or just talking on paper? I have some reservations.

In a bear market, real people are visible. The communities of many projects have already dispersed, and projects like $Max that are still working diligently are indeed rare.

Well said, there are really a few projects that accelerate during the bear market, this is true faith.
