🎭 The Rise and Fall of FOMO: A Bored Ape Story

🙈 Remember when owning a Bored Ape was the ultimate flex? Today, a Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) NFT trades for around 12 ETH, or roughly $30,000. That might sound like a lot—until you remember that back in May 2022, these same NFTs were going for over 150 ETH—around $375,000.  Same Ethereum price. Very different vibes.

What changed?

The truth is, FOMO (fear of missing out) is a hell of a drug. When prices are soaring and celebrities are tweeting, logic takes a back seat. Everyone wants in before the rocket launches—never mind if it’s heading for the moon or straight into the sea.

This is the uncomfortable truth about speculation:
We rarely know if we’re being smart—or just swept up in hype—until it’s too late.

Let this be a reminder:
Hype can inflate anything but it’s only Time reveals its true values.
