Original Title: "How Four.meme Uses AI Concepts to Turn the BSC Chain into a Magical Experiment Field for Retail Investors"
Original Author: Lawrence, Mars Finance
Preface: A Performance Art That Can't Even Be Bothered with "Surface Efforts"
Veteran retail investors in the crypto space have long been accustomed to the classic trifecta of project teams using PPTs to paint dreams, white papers to weave stories, and KOLs to shout orders.
However, in the early hours of April 18, 2025, the SKYAI presale project launched by the Four.meme platform refreshed the industry's lower limits with its attitude of "putting indifference on display and engraving the act of cutting retail investors into DNA." This magical drama, which combines "AI concept opportunism," "rule black holes," "contract address typos," and "CZ's mystical retweets," can be likened to the blockchain version of "The Emperor's New Clothes"—the project team parades naked while the onlookers insist on praising the beautiful clothes.
This article will peel back the emperor's new clothes of SKYAI from four dimensions: technological hollowing, rule black-boxing, platform disqualification, and community obsession, and discuss how Four.meme has fallen from a "Meme Launchpad" to a "Retail Investor Shredder."
Chapter One: Technology: When "AI Protocol" Becomes "The Emperor's New Code"
1.1 MCP Protocol? It Might as Well Be Renamed "Make Crypto Pretend"
SKYAI claims its core is the MCP protocol (Machine-Contract Protocol), which supposedly enables AI to achieve "smart contract auditing," "cross-chain data tracking," and "real-time on-chain analysis." However, flipping through the project materials reveals a screen full of buzzwords like "empower," "upgrade," and "next generation," with specific technical details more mysterious than Satoshi Nakamoto's true identity. This reminds one of the classic trick in e-commerce presales where "model images deceive consumers, but the actual delivery is street vendor goods."
Even more absurdly, the project team forcibly "opportunizes" OpenAI's Function Calling and Anthropic's Claude model, claiming to "integrate local tools into the BSC chain." But upon closer inspection, the so-called "technical breakthrough" is merely renaming the ChatGPT API interface—much like packaging "45 days for delivery after presale" as "artisan spirit slow living."
1.2 Roadmap: ETH/Base Chain Support? Might as Well Just Write "Schrödinger's Multichain"
The roadmap of SKYAI resembles the e-commerce platform's "presale page that doesn't specify delivery time, only showing after payment that you have to wait a month."
Clearly targeting the BSC chain, yet including ETH/Base support in the plans is akin to a restaurant selling "freshly stir-fried crayfish," only to tell customers: "The crayfish are still in the lake, pay first, and we'll serve it three years later." This tactic of "harvesting current funds with future concepts" is so blatant that even the Jiangsu Consumer Protection Committee would call it professional.
Chapter Two: Rules: There’s No Darkest, Only Darker "Retail Investor Harvesting Guide"
2.1 No Hard Cap on Presale: Contemporary "Ponzi Scheme" Performance Art
The presale rules of SKYAI can be described as the "霸王条款" (unilateral clauses) of the crypto world: no monetary cap, no token distribution details, rules announced only after the end. This is like an online shopping scenario where the seller says: "Please pay first, and we'll tell you what you bought when the goods arrive." Referring to the Chinese Consumers Association's characterization of "excessively long presales," this operation has already involved using an advantageous position to shift risks, essentially a form of "format contract bullying" against investors.
2.2 Contract Address Typo: Even "Professional Negligence" Can't Be Bothered to Perform
The project team even managed to mistype the CA address, comparable to an e-commerce seller linking a down jacket to a short-sleeve shirt.
Even more fantastical, some in the community defended: "This is a strategy against witches!"—according to this logic, a bank ATM dispensing counterfeit bills could also be explained as "anti-money laundering innovation." This kind of "packaging accidents as stories" rhetoric would make even Pinduoduo's "cut a slice" algorithm bow down in submission.
Chapter Three: Platform: How Four.meme Transformed from "Launchpad" to "Retail Investor Incinerator"
3.1 Launch Platform Doing IDO? Might as Well Change to Selling "Air Token Blind Boxes"
As a meme coin launchpad, Four.meme should have been the guardian of "fair launches," yet it personally engaged in promoting presales, akin to a Taobao assistant opening a store to sell counterfeit goods. Its actions completely deviate from the decentralized spirit of Web3, instead replicating the monopolistic tactics of e-commerce platforms that "act as both referee and player." Given Four.meme's previous history of being hacked for $15,000 due to contract vulnerabilities, this time supporting SKYAI feels more like a gambler's desperate act.
3.2 CZ's Mystical Retweets: The Behavioral Economics of Contemporary "Shitcoins"
A bizarre consensus circulates in the community: "Some Z loves to retweet shit, just go for it." This essentially transforms investment into "retweet lotteries."
Just like the consumer psychology in e-commerce presales where "knowing it's a pit but still gambling on the seller's delivery," retail investors have long fallen into the sunk cost fallacy: since the BSC chain is a "beast chain," they might as well actively become "feed"—this kind of magical realism is something even Gabriel García Márquez wouldn't dare to write.
Chapter Four: Ecology: Why the BSC Chain Has Become a "Magical Realism Experiment Field"
4.1 From "Innovation Center" to "Fraud Hotbed": A Brief History of the BSC Chain's Decline
Four.meme claims that its four projects were selected for the BNB Chain's $100 million incentive program, but the SKYAI incident exposed the deep-seated crisis of the BSC ecosystem: heavy marketing, light technology; heavy traffic, light compliance; heavy speculation, light value. This is reminiscent of the logic behind e-commerce platforms condoning "excessively long presales"—using GMV data to please the capital market at the cost of overdrawn consumer trust. The Jiangsu Consumer Protection Committee's characterization of "霸王条款" fits seamlessly onto the BSC chain.
4.2 The Birth of the "Beast Chain": When Everyone Pretends to Play Games
The community's nickname for the BSC chain, "beast chain," is essentially a collective venting of systemic disorder. Just as e-commerce platforms tacitly allow sellers to "resell returned goods," Four.meme's indulgence of SKYAI reflects the entire ecosystem's "race to the bottom": whoever can harvest retail investors faster is the "innovation pioneer." This distorted value system has reduced blockchain technology to a mere prop for "Ponzi magic."
Conclusion: Maintaining Clarity in the "Jester Era" with N Different Postures
The SKYAI presale farce is essentially a microcosm of the crypto world where "bad money drives out good." When technological narratives devolve into opportunistic tools, community consensus regresses into retweet mysticism, and platform credibility succumbs to traffic anxiety.
For ordinary investors, the author's advice boils down to three points:
· Stay Away from "Three No Presales": Projects without a technical white paper, on-chain audits, or clear rules are essentially P2P scams dressed in Web3 clothing.
· Beware of "KOL Pyramid Schemes": Treating CZ's retweets as investment basis is like buying financial products based on Li Jiaqi's live streams—while the former might lead to losses, the latter at least gets you a face mask.
· Recognize the Essence of the Platform: When Four.meme starts selling "air token blind boxes," its business model has devolved from "service fee model" to "fraud profit-sharing model."
You can temporarily deceive all retail investors, or you can forever deceive some retail investors, but you cannot forever deceive all retail investors—unless they voluntarily choose to remain asleep.
