Recently, the platform's new regulations have sparked quite a bit of discussion. On the surface, it appears to be a digital optimization, but in reality, it is an invisible reallocation of resources — we are witnessing the redraw of a new "wealth map."

**Where are the core changes? From blind internal competition to value contribution**

This move by the platform is indeed clever. In the past, rewards went to players with fast operation speeds; now, the focus shifts to selecting those who truly contribute to the ecosystem. The new points consumption mechanism forces players with ample funds to be more strategic, to some extent leveling the playing field between large and small accounts. This compels everyone to think carefully: Is my points worth spending this way?

**How many points do you currently have?**

These points are the future "hard currency." Based on market feedback, the mainstream configurations are roughly as follows:

The most aggressive approach (2+17, 285 points) costs about $240 per month, aiming for multiple airdrop participations.
Popular configuration (2+16, 270 points) costs around $100 per month, but if the airdrop returns less than $60, it’s easy to lose money.
The most balanced choice (2+15, 255 points) costs about $50 per month, and many are now focusing on this tier.
Conservative threshold (2+14 or 1+15, 240 points) costs $20-30 per month, basically the minimum participation level.

**Here’s a cruel paradox**

If the rumored airdrop threshold is truly set at 220-240 points, high-scoring players who can claim multiple times will quickly drive up the actual participation costs. Resources will ultimately flow back to those "top players" who persist in upgrading their points. It’s a zero-sum game of mutual attrition.

**How to respond?**

First, stop blindly boosting points; instead, carefully analyze your cost-benefit model to find the most suitable tier and stabilize your position. Second, improve your project judgment — every claim consumes points, so you should use your "ammunition" on the most promising projects.

This is no longer a game of who can endure longer, but a strategic battle of who is smarter. Are you planning to upgrade your approach and continue participating, or wait and see before making a decision? Share your configuration ideas in the comments.
