Bullish
I’m honestly frustrated by what happened in the XPL competition.
For ranks 21–50, the reward is 21,666 XPL. At the current price of $0.126, that’s roughly $2,730 in value. I genuinely don’t understand where people are getting claims of $10–19 million in profit from. Even if you calculate using the best possible discounts, the math still points to a loss, not a gain.
What’s even more confusing is beyond rank 51, the reward drops to just 1,250 XPL, yet some traders pushed $5–9 million in trading volume. The fees alone would cost thousands of dollars, all for tokens worth a tiny fraction of that. From a pure risk–reward perspective, it makes no sense.
It feels like competition for the sake of competition, without rational cost analysis. In trading, volume without profitability is meaningless, and this event is a clear example of how chasing rankings can lead to real losses instead of real returns. $XPL
