Herd mentality doesn't care if the path leads off a cliff...it only cares how many are walking it. People excuse the same shortcuts, hype, and opacity they once called reckless the moment the crowd (or a “successful” name) normalizes it. Fossil fuels over Tesla’s free-energy ideas. Chains with no proof of ownership. “Just ape it” over asking who actually controls the key, the identity, or the exit. The same pattern is why so many get rugged. Most chains offer no durable proof of ownership and no real proof of identity. Wallets are pseudonymous until they aren’t, and “community” is often just a liquidity pool that can vanish. Success in the last cycle becomes the license for the next round of the same behavior. On XFER that changes: ownership and identity are rooted in verified X handles. No premine theater, no anonymous founders (I am I.D verified), no “trust me bro” until the next exit. The tough question isn’t “is everyone else doing it?” It’s “can I prove what I own, and can anyone else prove who they are when it matters?” Ask it before the leap.
