Bought 500 $BEAT at the beginning of October, and not a single one has been sold to date.
Why did I buy it back then?
To be honest, what attracted me at first was the 'DJ Dance' IP.
600 million historical users, 2.2 billion dollars in revenue, with this level of Web2 IP going on-chain, it should theoretically be the standard script of 'high opening low going harvesting'. But after carefully examining the token economic model, I found that #BEAT is quite different from other old IP on-chain projects:
✅ Single currency model (not dual currency harvesting) ✅ Low initial circulation (not high FDV airdrop dump) ✅ Real user base (5 million on-chain users, not artificially inflated)
Let’s compare it with another old IP project that was popular this year, MapleStory:
- MapleStory: Dual-token design + High unlocking pressure + High airdrop ratio
- $BEAT: Single token + low external circulation + larger user base
I am betting on the economic model, not nostalgia.

Why haven’t I sold until now?
Because after December 1, this project started to 'get serious'.
📊 Three hard data points that keep me holding on
1️⃣ Real revenue: AI Payment launched
On December 1, Audiera officially launched the AI Payment feature: users can use $BEAT to pay for AI music generation and other services.
As of now, the on-chain has generated a real revenue of 148,900+$BEAT.
> Revenue address (can be checked on chain): 0x919e397834c349bD890a552BA035dcDefc4cdE42
This is one of the few Web3 game projects that I have seen that is 'really doing products and truly has revenue'. It’s not relying on transaction fees, but on users paying for services.
2️⃣ Real destruction: Fixed weekly burn
The project has turned the revenue from AI Payment into a flywheel:
User payment $BEAT → Generates revenue → Periodic destruction → Token becomes scarcer
The first batch of destruction has been completed: 125,000 $BEAT into the black hole.
> Burn transaction link (can be checked on-chain): https://bscscan.com/token/0xcf3232b85b43bca90e51d38cc06cc8bb8c8a3e36?a=0x00000000000
Moreover, this is not a one-time burn; it is a fixed weekly announcement of destruction data.
3️⃣ Real users: Not artificially inflated activity
- Historical users: 600 million+ (cumulative from the Dance Dance Revolution IP)
- On-chain users: 5 million+ (one of the most active music entertainment dApps on the BNB Chain)
This is not a project where 'after the airdrop, it's all just profit seekers'; there are genuinely people using it, playing it, and paying for it.

My judgment logic
As retail investors, we shouldn't just focus on FDV and price fluctuations. Three indicators are enough:
1. Users: Is there a real user base? → $BEAT: 600 million historical users + 5 million on-chain users ✅
2. Revenue: Is there real product revenue? → $BEAT: AI Payment has already generated 148,900+ $BEAT ✅
3. Destruction: Is the token economy really deflationary? → $BEAT: Fixed weekly destruction ✅
Not all old IPs on-chain are the same.
Some sell nostalgia, while others are genuinely creating new models. MapleStory proves that IP has value, but $BEAT adopts a more restrained economic model + a larger user base, following an 'evolutionary path'.

Finally, let me say a few words
I am not calling for a buy, nor am I recommending that you purchase. I am just sharing my logic on why I bought in October and still haven’t sold.
If you are also interested in $BEAT, you can check the on-chain data yourself:
- AI Payment revenue address
- Weekly destruction burn records
- Real user data on the BNB Chain
Data does not lie.
There are too many projects in the crypto space, and very few have the 'users + revenue + destruction' trifecta. Even fewer can seamlessly integrate the user base of old IPs with the Web3 token economy.
$BEAT What makes me hold it now? Because it doesn’t seem like a project that comes to the crypto space to 'play a round and leave', but rather like a team seriously conducting a 'Web2 music + AI + payment + token economy' integration experiment.
As for what will happen in the future? I don't know. But at least for now, the data is still speaking.
