Why did a garbage movie like "Niu Lai" pull off a 10,000x comeback, and how did a same-name Meme coin get pumped hard on-chain?
Because what everyone is buying is not content or tokens at all, but a cyber pass for a world of mutual trolling. Web2 creates emotional waste, and Web3 puts a compute price on that waste.
The first batch of people who got ripped off by the theaters, driven by the petty mindset of "I got soaked in the rain, so I’m going to rip everyone else’s umbrella apart,"疯狂刷好评. On-chain players, seeing a mystical name like "Niu Lai," casually bought the pool into oblivion.
Actually, the logic is pretty down-to-earth.
1. Mutual emotional trolling turns into a community of shared interests
Being scammed and posting complaints only gives you a chance to vent. But if you buy some Meme coins and then go screaming across the internet, you instantly go from victim to stakeholder, turning anger into buying pressure.
2. Real-world trending topics directly fuel the chain
Box office surges and absurd meme images across the internet are all free marketing materials. Web2 handles the viral buildup, Web3 handles the monetization.
3. Fear of missing out and the fantasy of getting rich
The movie fears being taken down and forgotten; the chain fears missing the 10,000x move. The more outrageous it is, the more likely it is to attract some sucker to take the bag.
But in essence, this is just an internet-wide prank. Once the hype fades and the movie is taken down, the Meme coin will inevitably go through a brutal liquidity drain. The latecomers’ positions will all be left hanging at the top, turning directly into on-chain relics.
In this prank, which side of the ticket are you paying for? Watching "Niu Lai" offline, or going all-in on "Niu Lai" online?
