A few days ago, I had tea with Lao Liao. He flipped through the ASTER materials and suddenly slammed the table: "8 billion total supply? Isn't this just a money grab?"
"Back then, ETH had no limit, which was considered bold. BNB only issued 200 million, so why are projects getting more and more outrageous now?"
After 6 years of trading cryptocurrencies, from chasing scarce coins to relying on high-issue coins to break even, I've figured it out: the current high issuance is all a trick forced by the market and technology, definitely not random inflation!
The core is that the token economics have changed! Seven years ago, the crypto space was a blue ocean. ETH relied on PoS for control, and BNB's halving through burn made it possible to build faith on "scarcity." Now, to grow the ecosystem, ASTER directly allocates 53.5% of the coins to the community, keeping 20% to incentivize developers, playing the game of "many hands make light work."
The market has also turned into a red ocean! Lao Liao learned the hard way last year: he saw a coin that only issued 8 million and rushed in, only to have the big players crash it and trap him. In contrast, high liquidity coins like ASTER allow both retail and institutional investors to enter, with a reasonable valuation that stands firm in a saturated market.
Technological demands are also pushing the issuance upwards!
The new generation of public chains needs to support microtransactions, with tens of thousands of transactions per second. Tokens serve as both "fuel" and must support staking and voting. If the total supply is too small, it simply can't operate — just like XRP issued 100 billion to accommodate cross-border micropayments; it can't just transfer a few dozen dollars while still being counted to eight decimal places, right?
Current projects understand "dividing the cake" better! In the early days, ETH and BNB allocated 70-80% of their coins to ICO investors, and if a big player sold off, it would crash. ASTER allocates more than half of its coins to the community, relying on airdrops to attract users, which directly reduces the risk of whale control.
Don't worry about inflation! There are now "safety valves": ASTER buys back and destroys coins when it makes money. BNB has already destroyed nearly 20%. To put it simply, it’s "issuing a lot but destroying even more fiercely."
Later, Lao Liao figured it out: within the 8 billion of ASTER, the ecosystem's funds are enough to support until 2025, perfectly matching Binance's ecological rhythm, and it’s all calculated!
Nowadays, when selecting coins, it’s no longer about looking at the issuance numbers; instead, focus on two points: Is the community and ecosystem share high enough? Is there a substantial destruction mechanism? Only those that can balance "everyone has a share" and "value doesn't collapse" are truly reliable projects! @阿二说币 #巨鲸动向 #ETH走势分析 #加密市场观察
