But what do you mean by promising project? A project can be promising and still have a worthless token as a medium of exchange. There are many promising projects out there, but their tokens won't be worth much.
don't call such a project a promising project. indeed there are many projects running, but the development has no response from the market, that makes their tokens have no market value.
yes it is useless to think of a project that is still running but the tokens that they develop do not have a large value on the market, developers should not only think about the project journey but also have to think about the movement of tokens in the market to attract investors to invest in the token, so that the project can be said to be promising going forward.
