The honeymoon phase is officially over. After months of AI hype dominating headlines, we're seeing a real shift in how the market perceives these technologies. Projects riding on pure AI narratives are getting scrutinized harder. Users are asking tougher questions: actual utility or just buzzwords?

What's interesting is this isn't anti-AI sentiment exactly—it's more like market maturation. The crypto community moves fast. We've cycled through the initial euphoria, and now people want to see real deliverables. Can these AI solutions actually solve problems? Are they just repackaged existing tech with an AI sticker?

The backlash effect? It's weeding out weak projects while forcing legitimate ones to prove their value proposition. Honestly, this friction might be healthy for the space long-term.

The chip distribution shows that the top pattern of this AI narrative has formed, it's time to cut profits. --- A typical rookie mentality: holding onto the AI concept and stubbornly resisting, only looking at the price increase without considering fundamentals. --- Risk reminder: The emotional overheating zone is currently the easiest time to cut losses. --- Interesting entry points: the death of weak projects actually benefits market health; probabilistic strategies work like this. --- Wow, you only understand the research report written three months ago now? Your efficiency is a bit low, buddy. --- Projects with already formed patterns are still telling stories—truly incredible. --- Market sentiment indicators have already reversed long ago; it's too late to ask about utility now.

It's about time to wake up; those projects labeled with AI are just rebranding tricks.

actually... the "ai sticker" observation is spot on, but here's what nobody talks about—most of these projects don't understand cryptographic primitives at all. they're just slapping neural nets on top of existing infrastructure without considering privacy implications. that's the real problem tbh

Wait, is this for real? The AI project correction has really arrived. --- Honestly, there aren't many truly useful ones; most just slap an AI label and dare to raise funds. --- Market cleansing of those damn shitcoins, which is actually a good thing. --- I'm optimistic about this filtering; trash projects should be gone. --- That's just how the crypto world is. When hot topics come, everyone blows them up; when they cool down, they start asking why there's no utility... --- Finally, someone has pierced through this facade. It was about time. --- Where are all the real utilities? Most are just storytelling. --- Will this reshuffle also bury good projects? It's hard to say.

AI concept coins should have been gone long ago; a bunch of rebranded projects are just scamming me.

It should have been like this a long time ago. That group of projects that only tell stories should be hammered down.

It's about time to wake up; many AI projects are just the same old story with a new coat of paint. Finally, someone is starting to ask what can actually be done. The previous narrative was just too absurd. This round of adjustments is actually a good thing. Those that should be eliminated will be eliminated, and only projects with real value will survive. To put it simply, the market is self-correcting, and there's nothing to be afraid of.

It should have come earlier. A bunch of AI concept coins are just a matter of changing logos. By the way, does anyone really believe in those "revolutionary AI" projects? I think it's mostly hype. This round of elimination is actually more comfortable. Garbage projects are gone, and no one is annoyed. Where are the practical uses? Just hyping up Bitcoin is pointless. A clear-headed market is always better than collective madness. That's it.
