Sometimes, the market's reaction speed exceeds expectations.



A few days ago, a well-known developer changed their social media profile picture to a certain Milady NFT. The action was very low-key—no official announcement, and no development roadmap. Just a simple profile picture change.

And the result? The price of Milady NFT skyrocketed from around 0.7 ETH to approximately 1.3 ETH within a few hours, an increase of over 50%. During the same period, the related $CULT token increased by about 100% over a week.

What does this reflect? It’s not a major positive fundamental factor, but purely a shift in attention. A move by a high-influence account is enough to trigger market follow-up sentiment. Investors interpret signals and seize opportunities without waiting for detailed documentation.

This is the operating logic of the crypto market—it is highly sensitive to every possible signal. Price fluctuations often precede narratives, and market psychology can cause short-term dramatic changes more easily than fundamentals. In such an environment, reaction speed and the ability to perceive market temperature are often more important than in-depth analysis.

Just a profile picture change, and a 50% increase within a few hours... This is the real signal trading.

It's the same setup again, the signal sensitivity is more valuable than the fundamentals.

It's the same story again, one profile picture can pump the price by 50%, and we're retail investors still looking at candlestick charts.
