In the Bitcoin ecosystem community, you often see a certain type of user—those who have the loudest voices in discussion groups, criticize projects most sharply, and even dig up tweets from half a year ago to scrutinize point by point. Some people directly label these users as "professional haters," but if you actually check the on-chain data, you'll find that ironically, the loudest complainers in the community are often the top holders.

The example of APRO particularly illustrates this point. According to the on-chain holdings distribution in Q4 2025, the user who was repeatedly warned by administrators for frequently questioning the technical roadmap is actually the seventh-largest holder of the APRO protocol. This is no coincidence—once you really invest heavily, your attention to the project and the severity of your criticism tend to be proportional.

This reflects an interesting phenomenon in the current Web3 market: disputes and doubts within the community are often not aimed at dumping, but are instead deep involvement driven by the genuine interests of the holders. Just like you might constantly complain about your house but would never move out, these "troublesome" users may be complaining verbally, but they have already invested real money into it.

The fundamental reason for this phenomenon is that the Bitcoin layer-2 ecosystem is still in rapid iteration. In the market environment of 2025, simple sidechains or Layer2 solutions are commonplace. The real pain point lies in how to establish an efficient liquidity support system while maintaining Bitcoin's native security. The positioning of APRO within this ecosystem determines that it will inevitably attract long-term participants who are both optimistic and picky.
