According to @cas_abbe, narratives pump before price because this market runs on attention rather than adoption (source: @cas_abbe on X, Aug 24, 2025). He cites AI, DePIN, ETH infrastructure, and RWA as examples that rallied when belief and attention surged, with price following after the narrative took hold (source: @cas_abbe on X, Aug 24, 2025). For trading, his view implies prioritizing narrative momentum as a leading signal ahead of price action in these sectors, especially ETH-related infrastructure plays (ETH) and RWA tokens (source: @cas_abbe on X, Aug 24, 2025).
