I got a suggestion that I genuinely think could improve a lot of things in the space.
Right now, we're seeing a lot of ETH mints going FCFS. I'm not even talking about the GTD mints that end up heavily overallocated because everyone is travelling to Lisbon lol.
Let's be honest: botters are farming most FCFS ETH mints with just $10–$20 profit. It got to the point where I even considered doing the same, just to give my clients and myself a fair chance at hitting these mints.
That's why I'd love to see more mints on APE Chain or other mega ETH/FIFO chains. Those environments actually show who's skilled and who's not. On ETH, any random kid can spike the gwei and ruin the experience for everyone, so it's just not worth it anymore.
On chains like APE, gwei won't decide the winner. Speed, preparation, and skill will.
We've already seen projects cook on these chains
@apechurch and
@mimuonape, and others. And projects minting directly on their own websites are becoming much easier to handle. Plus, with AI tools improving while OpenSea keeps letting us down during major mints, exploring alternatives makes even more sense.
In conclusion, I wouldn't mind seeing more mints happen on APE Chain or any FIFO chain. Better experience, fairer competition, and more opportunities for people to secure decent profits.
