+-----------------------------------------------------------+Positive Suspicion Chain - How to Manufacture FOMO
Suspicion Chain Theory
From "The Three-Body Problem" fundamental theorem:
"I don't know if you harbor goodwill; I also don't know if you think you harbor goodwill; I cannot assume whether you think I harbor goodwill."
In the "Dark Forest" scenario, the optimal solution is to strike first.
FOMO's Positive Suspicion Chain
In market FOMO state, an unavoidable buying force forms:
| Element | Function |
|---|---|
| Eliminate communication possibility | No sufficient time to analyze before decision |
| Zero-sum expectation consensus | Early buyers profit from late buyers' losses, everyone knows |
| Unbearable opportunity cost | Cost of missing out is too high |
$TRUMP Case Study
The moment Trump coin news drops
↓
Market immediately pumps, market cap explodes
↓
No time to verify, simple confirmation not hacked
↓
Market consensus: External capital will definitely buy
↓
Planet leader personally issuing coin, extremely scarce
↓
Missing out = Historical loss + Friends laughing at you forever
↓
No choice, must buy, maybe even all-inFactors Determining FOMO Intensity
| Factor | Impact |
|---|---|
| Speed of trend formation | Faster → Less time for communication/analysis → Closer to instinct |
| Scope of angle consensus | How many people agree with trading logic |
| Event scarcity | More unique and unrepeatable → "Miss it, regret forever" |
| Crowd capital power | If FOMO crowd has no capital → Price collapses quickly |
Propagation Pricing Model
Greatness cannot be planned, but FOMO can be
Core Formula
Narrative Propagation Pricing P(d):
P(d) = P₀ × e^(-βd) × S^γ × e^(-Rd) × A(d) × V(d)
Where:
├── P₀: Initial pricing at propagation origin (usually highest)
├── e^(-βd): Trust decay factor
├── S^γ: Scarcity factor
├── e^(-Rd): Replicability factor
├── A(d): Audience attraction
└── V(d): Crowd value (capital power)Key Insights
Greater propagation distance → Higher audience understanding cost
Greater propagation distance → Lower price audience willing to accept
Scarce, unreplicable events targeting specific audiences:
└── Narrative pricing declines slower
Easily replicated, information-complex events:
└── Rapidly depreciate during propagationCrypto AI Narrative Case Study
November 2024 - February 2025:
1. Create information gap:
└── VCs use meme coins as vehicle, rapidly push hype, speed-run schemes
2. Exploit cognitive level differences:
├── AI professionals
├── → Investors who broadly recognize AI is future
└── → Regular traders who don't truly understand AI but know it's a trend
3. High replicability leads to narrative cooling:
└── Deepseek etc. go mainstream, flatten cognitive gap, narrative diesReal World Attention (RWA)
Definition
The most valuable narratives must attract attention events beyond crypto's core high-frequency users, capable of "viral propagation" potential, understandable by global average IQ
Understanding RWA
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Why "president coins" "celebrity coins" always have market | Globally predictable cognitive groups, clear angle where missing out is unacceptable |
| Why non-US artist coins perform poorly | Audience not active on crypto platforms, high cognitive cost, lower pricing |
| Why event-type tokens perform better | Drama tension crosses crypto, propagation audience is dynamic process, events have natural scarcity |
| Why complex AI/DeFi narratives struggle to break out | Cognitive cost too high, consensus scope too small, low pricing |
| Why meme coins with big devs/leads trigger FOMO | Natural positive suspicion chain zero-sum scenario, data tools have no extra cognitive cost |
RWA vs RWA
Real World Attention > Real World Asset
Forming attention-based consensus
is
Much easier than
forming asset-based consensus

Scheme Planning
| Step | Content |
|---|---|
| Set boundaries | Main system struggles with propagation model, carve out part specifically for propagation |
| Set system | Use meme/NFT fast-rising assets, or incremental pricing mutual-aid (VDS/Fomo3D) |
| Select angle | Per RWA logic, choose narratives with low information complexity, broad audience coverage |
| Create events | Manufacture dramatic tension events as propagation vehicles |
Traditional CX Projects
Problems:
├── Community leaders need offline meetings to teach and recruit
├── Even innermost circle has high cognitive cost
└── Young people no longer respect "systems, organizations", higher cost propagating outward
Solutions:
├── Reduce model narrative complexity (explainable in 3 sentences)
├── Design zero-sum scenarios that don't need explanation for propagation
└── Design entry as a Real World Attention eventPure Meme Dev or Infrastructure
Only three resources are truly useful:
| Resource | Function |
|---|---|
| On-chain proactive market makers | High control for speed-run schemes |
| Network promoters | Actually stir up Real World Attention |
| Precise trading KOLs + Public media | Activate broad market consensus |
Other traditional crypto "fundamental narratives" are basically unimportant, just stories sold to exchanges, market makers, and industry influencers
Core Formulas
FOMO = Information gap × Zero-sum consensus × Opportunity cost
Propagation Pricing:
├── Greater distance → Higher understanding cost → Lower price
├── Scarce unreplicable → Pricing declines slower
└── Cognitive cost curve crosses pricing line = Narrative death
Real World Attention:
├── More valuable than Real World Assets
├── Most valuable narratives attract global average IQ groups
└── Viral propagation potential
Scheme Principles:
├── Carve out dedicated propagation portion
├── Choose fast-rising asset vehicles
├── Select low information complexity narratives
└── Manufacture dramatic tension eventsKings and generals, are they born to it?
