According to Milk Road (@MilkRoadDaily), a crypto project claiming to be ‘community-owned’ was found to have 80% of its token supply held by the team, based on publicly available token distribution data. This significant team allocation poses a major centralization risk, undermining trust and increasing the potential for manipulation or rug pulls. Traders should verify token allocation before investing, as high team control can negatively impact liquidity, price stability, and long-term project credibility. Such distribution patterns are often red flags for both short-term trading volatility and long-term investment safety (source: @MilkRoadDaily, May 27, 2025).

According to Eric Cryptoman, certain crypto projects often gain mainstream attention from influencers like Alex Becker when their market cap reaches $50 million. He advises traders to analyze the project's technology early to capitalize before broader retail adoption, potentially maximizing trading gains ahead of large-scale influencer-driven hype (Source: Eric Cryptoman on Twitter, May 16, 2025).
