The Labubu craze has finally run its course, at least according to recent market sentiment. What once seemed like an unstoppable collectible phenomenon is now looking pretty deflated. The speculative frenzy that drove prices skyward appears to have cooled significantly as reality sets in. Many who rode the hype wave early are now questioning whether the digital collectibles space still has legs, or if we've just witnessed another boom-and-bust cycle in the NFT world. Market cycles like these are pretty typical in Web3—rapid enthusiasm followed by harsh corrections. The question now is whether projects in this category can rebuild trust and create real, sustainable utility.

Labubu is done. I saw this coming a long time ago; the inflated prices will eventually return to rationality.
It's another round of hot potato... As long as there are some real applications, that's already good.
This correction is actually a good thing, eliminating projects that are purely speculative.
Basically, if there's no real demand to support it, it can't sustain itself. Web3 needs actual utility.
Early adopters now look back and find it funny, haha.
The boom-bust cycle is very normal; the key is whether we can break out of this vicious circle.

Another hyped-up thing, but in the end, you still have to cut it.

Labubu is dead? I saw it coming a long time ago. This is the fate of Web3.
