Today, I'm responding to some reader questions about the Virtual launchpad.
Will I sell or continue to stake the tokens I receive from new airdrops?
Earlier, when I participated in a project and received tokens, I sold them because I didn't think highly of them, which led to a period of "cooling off".
The feeling of enduring the "cooling off" period wasn't good, so after that, I became more cautious about participating in new projects, trying to avoid projects I might regret later. Therefore, I now carefully research projects before participating, and I won't join any project that makes me hesitate. So, the projects I participate in are basically those I believe are worth keeping and observing, at least for a few months.
Additionally, on the Virtual launchpad, points are the most critical factor in obtaining participation shares. To get high points, besides staking tokens, one can also accumulate points through various Yapping. However, I'm quite lazy and haven't done much Yapping, so I don't get many points daily. When participating in each project, especially popular ones, the amount of Virtual I can actually invest is very small.
Yesterday, I carefully organized the Virtual I've spent on new launches, and found the proportion is actually very small. So even if these project tokens eventually go to zero and the Virtual is completely wasted, the impact wouldn't be significant.
On the other hand, although the successful projects on the launchpad recently have brought decent returns to participants, due to point limitations, the tokens I can actually get are limited, and when spread out, the returns aren't much. So rather than selling tokens for these current gains and facing various penalties, it's better to wait a few more months. If one of these projects turns out to be a dark horse and brings greater returns, that would be meaningful.
Based on these reasons, for the projects I'm currently participating in, I haven't sold a single token after receiving them, and have all participated in staking. Even when the unlock period passes, as long as Virtual's overall ecosystem maintains vigorous growth and the fundamentals of the projects I hold aren't seriously problematic, I'll tend to continue staking and observing for some time.
In recent project launches, Vader, this AI Agent, will score and rate various upcoming projects.
I generally look at projects mainly from my own perspective, and for others' evaluations, I'll just briefly glance, quickly passing over unremarkable assessments.
But recently, Vader's evaluation of an upcoming top-tier project was quite interesting.
This project has been widely mentioned in many participants' discussions online, with many netizens even saying they'll save points to go All In. However, Vader's rating for it is only Tier 3.
This is a relatively low tier. It greatly exceeded many people's expectations. People generally thought this rating was too low.
Regarding this, Vader provided its own explanation:
When evaluating a project, it focuses on the team's ability to release products. If the team hasn't yet released a product, it will check whether the team has released products in their past experiences, and will communicate with those products' users to understand their views - that is, judging the team's capabilities from past experiences.
Returning to that top-tier project, Vader didn't find any product information from the team, nor did it find the team's past product experience in this field. Additionally, Vader didn't discover the team's capabilities in online promotion and marketing.
Therefore, Vader gave a Tier 3 rating.
I won't comment on the rating result, but its analytical logic is unique and brilliant.
I don't know if this rating was derived by the AI Agent itself or its behind-the-scenes team. If it was truly analyzed by the AI Agent itself, then its analytical capabilities have already significantly surpassed most ordinary people. However, even if it was analyzed by the behind-the-scenes team, it still shows their effort and dedication - fully capable of undertaking rating work and providing investors with some unique perspectives.
