without context.... 

This is nothing new but it something massively important for us to remember in the NFT space.   Data without context or more than one data point is just numbers.   In some cases, NFT projects are using the public transparent to build trust while in other cases some projects are using the fact that we are leveraging data against us by manipulating the data with free mints, having friends or co-founders make big NFT purchases and this trend won't stop any time soon. 

So it's up to us to understand the importance of not just trusting the data or trends that we see at face-value as we must go deeper in the data and go beyond what one tool or platform is telling us about an NFT project or how many mints have happened in the last 30 minutes.  

More to come on this topic but take this as a PSA today and as Spider-man was told...  "With great DATA comes great responsibility!"
