Q: Is edgex completely not cost-effective now? Honestly, for retail investors, when things like edgex and lighter are already trending, they’re all not cost-effective anymore. This includes aster—anything that’s trending is not cost-effective. For example, edgex points: my cost was at least 200 times cheaper than the current participation cost. No matter how you optimize your strategy, you can’t optimize a 200x cost difference. In short, you have to get in early. This is no different from secondary market investments—vision is everything. That said, I still recommend trying out edgex, lighter, aster, hyper, etc., because it helps you spot the next early-stage opportunity. Only in the early stages do retail investors have a participation advantage. When something is already blowing up, it’s like buying a coin that’s already mooning—you’ll be facing huge risks.
