Lessons learned

1Compliance is the absolute foundation for survival.

Web3 projects must not overlook traditional financial and data regulations—ignoring these regulatory boundaries can lead to forced shutdowns of the projects, making compliance a priority ahead of business expansion. 重点：Ignoring regulatory requirements will inevitably lead to severe penalties.

2The trust mechanism is fragile and vulnerable.

Social media platforms rely heavily on user trust, and once faced with negative public sentiment or regulatory pressure, that trust can collapse at an astonishing speed; a lack of transparent governance will only accelerate the demise of such projects. 重点：The collapse of trust is irreversible.

3The risk of relying on a single narrative is extremely high.

Over-reliance on a single narrative without solid underlying business fundamentals renders such projects utterly vulnerable to changes in the external environment; therefore, diversification and risk hedging are essential for long-term survival. 重点：A single narrative cannot sustain itself in the long term.
