There's no need to guess anymore. The industry chain for buying media press releases has already formed, and the cost-effectiveness even surpasses promoting through top KOLs.

Just to give a simple example. A certain account claiming to be very influential has actual article reads of only over 30,000, and the conversion to purchases is even more negligible. Yet, with this kind of content, combined with main capital's pump-and-dump operations, it can create a noticeable market effect: main capital first ignites the market, then media promotion adds fuel to the fire, attracting retail investors and hot money to follow the trend and rush in.

With this combination of tactics, it appears that market enthusiasm surges and trading volume skyrockets, but in reality, it's a carefully choreographed performance. Low cost, quick results, and high replicability—no wonder more and more project teams are using this approach.
