First of all, many projects do not require much cost and have high returns, such as Ethena and USUAL from the previous TGE. Ethena is on S3, you can follow it: https://bly.one/ethena


In addition, HYPE and MOVE also have almost no cost and high returns. The best project that can be compared is Zora, which is almost undisputed. OP is the most stable project in the super chain. The key is that you don’t have to spend money to participate, and you only need to pay a $10 handling fee.

In addition, DAWN has no controversy. The investment institutions are awesome. DragonFLy's endorsement is the ceiling. The key is that it also got Vanack's endorsement. And the Depin project does not cost money.

HYPE returns are mouth-watering, but unfortunately, I missed the opportunity. The one I currently find most similar is Reya; I can't find a better decentralized derivatives exchange without TGE. This one also has little controversy, as you can deposit U in and withdraw at any time, and L2 ensures security.

Many projects have a lot of controversy, like Balance, which lacks substantial content, mainly because of A16Z's investment. It is still in the early stages with not much to show. The key is that Zora doesn't need money, DAWN doesn't need money, and Ethena and Reya are stablecoins, which won't incur losses, and the returns may not be low.


The advantage of nodes like Balance or Rivalz is that they offer a significant proportion. For Zora, you need to mint a lot of NFTs, and the rewards are not clearly stated. Balance and Rivalz nodes explicitly tell you how much the reward is.


The investors for Balance claim to have A16Z backing, at least A16Z invested in their parent company EPAL, which is why I got involved. However, I have always been anxious about the fact that this project lacks substantial content.


Rotten Tomatoes has some strengths. This is also why I mentioned this node. Additionally, this project may have KOLs receiving extremely high rebates, even over 30%, which is why it sells particularly quickly.


I do not have a BD team, and if I accept money, I cannot speak the truth, so I am just betting on a possibility, with A16Z and later Animoca brands being key.


This project is doing well with multi-level marketing. After all, doing well in multi-level marketing seems more important for a coin. Surprisingly, even 30,000 early birds sold out; one word: impressive!


Balance node:

In fact, a better and more stable node is the Rivalz node, which has a Depin and AI client, and the node has also been launched. From the product perspective, it far surpasses the Balance node, and the initial FDV is only about 50 to 60 million USD, which is similar to the Balance node. However, this project has only raised 14M, which, although still luxurious, is considerably less than Balance.


Rivalz node:

As for Sonic, the project has no issues, SVM is also creative and belongs to the tech stream, with a million followers on Tiktok, but the nodes for this project are too expensive, with FDV already exceeding 150 million USD.


Sonic node:

For the BluWhale node, the investment is also luxurious, led by SBI with a 20M investment, but Master nodes can get a refund. Overall, the project at least has produced something, but the product maturity is still not as good as Rivalz. The advantage is that Master nodes can get a refund:


Bluwhale node:

Let's talk about some problematic nodes, like Beam. Although Beam is a well-known project that has succeeded, its nodes are quite problematic, similar to the situation with Gala nodes back in the day.


This has no IDO attributes, relies on transaction fee rewards, and is very expensive, unlike balance, rivalz, and bluwhale which have a 25% token reward. Personally, I think it's not that worthwhile.


There are also nodes in Openloop, which is a Depin project; most Depin projects are free:

However, there are nodes to buy in OpenLoop. I studied it for a long time, and the main investment institutions are not well-known, resembling a self-funded investment institution by the project party itself. Furthermore, the project concept is relatively difficult.


So, why say that nodes like Rivalz, Bluwhale, Balance, and Sonic are decent? Because compared to Beam, which has no IDO attributes, or compared to OpenLoop, which lacks endorsements and backing, they are indeed much better.


That being said, nodes are inherently high risk.


Low-risk options include playing with Zora, Dawn, Reya, or Ethena, and the returns may not be low as well. I think Zora and the no-investment Depin, especially DAWN, are the most worthwhile to play.
