AIA has really been a slaughterhouse for bears lately. I don't know where all these brave souls come from, charging headfirst into the gunfire. Anyone who's been burned before should understand that this thing follows the same manipulation pattern as MYX and COAI—specifically relying on exploding contract shorts and draining funds through high fees to keep going.

Look at those two "cousins"—one hit 18, the other shot up to 20. They're cooled off now, but how badly did the shorts get wrecked back then? AIA hasn't even hit its previous high yet, and it's probably aiming for that level again this time.

These folks are playing the long game—they won't stop until they've squeezed all the shorts dry and drained every last fee. It's completely different from those pump-and-dump schemes that spike prices only to crash them. The tactics are deep and complex. Jumping in to short now? Basically throwing money away. Don't expect it to drop anytime soon. Sure, those two old coins are already dead, but the current batch of retail investors hasn't been fully squeezed out yet.
