Everything's fake until proven real.

App downloads? Botted.
User counts? Inflated.
Active users? Sybils.
Liquidity? Wash traded.
Volume? Spoofed.

This is why you don't ape into projects flexing vanity metrics. On-chain data, revenue, and real user retention are the only numbers that matter.

If a project won't show you the raw blockchain data or keeps pushing "download milestones" without substance, you already know what it is.

DYOR or get rugged. Simple as that.
