Airdrop Lock-up Details Revealed: Actual Returns Far Below Expectations

The actual situation of this airdrop is a bit disappointing. Only 20% of the tokens were released at mainnet launch, with the remaining 80% locked for 48 months before gradually unlocking—this means that only about 8% is actually immediately tradable, and the initial unlock amount for the other 40% is also subject to restrictions.

In comparison, early participants started paying attention to this project as early as August and September last year, but the liquidity they ultimately received fell far short of expectations. This ultra-long token release schedule directly diluted participants' short-term gains and also caused many community members optimistic about the project to feel disappointed.

Clearly, there is a significant gap between the design logic of the tokenomics and the actual expectations of participants.

lol 48 months? that's not a tokenomics, that's a psychological warfare campaign fr. 8% liquid on launch is basically a liquidity death trap waiting to cascade... classic vesting theater to keep the price from doing a full rug pull simulation. early believers got served the copium special, ngl. this is why i read the unlock schedule before the whitepaper, always.

It's the same old story, locking for 48 months? Probably just doing charity. Wait, are they just openly doing this? You should have seen it coming; airdrops have always been played like this.

Here we go again, getting rug-pulled. 48 months, this cracks me up. --- The lock-up design is just a scam; I should have seen it coming long ago. --- That's why I don't trust airdrops anymore—free stuff turns into wasted effort. --- Where's the promised liquidity? Is this it? --- Damn, I got caught again. Next time, I definitely won't touch this kind of long-term lock-up trash. --- Sure enough, project teams are always smarter than retail investors. I'm just here to make money. --- Can we stop playing these tricks? Really. --- 80% locked for 48 months—what kind of crazy design is this? Are they trying to make us despair? --- If I had known, I wouldn't have bothered researching this thing. Wasting my time. --- Who the hell came up with this broken mechanism? Can someone tell me?

It's the same trick again, locking for four years to unlock. Just ask yourself, will you give up or not?

It's the same trick again, locking for 48 months? I should have seen through it long ago. --- This round really flopped, waiting over half a year for this? --- Wait, only 8% is circulating, isn't this just a disguised way to cut the leeks? --- Friends who invested early are probably kicking themselves now... --- Tokenomics? This is the "how to cut the most safely" economics, right? --- Damn, I knew they wouldn't be that considerate. --- 48 months, by then the token price will be long gone, who still cares about unlocking?

Cut again? It takes 48 months to unlock, isn't this just frozen capital?
