According to Odaily Planet Daily, Pransky, an NFT collector and the user with the highest historical trading volume on OpenSea, wrote on X: "Unless SEA can bring generational wealth to every Degen user in the history of the platform, it will be labeled a failure. As the user with the highest historical trading volume, I hope I can get good results, but because I have been cheated too many times, I will not count on it to succeed, and you should not do the same. Without a solid plan, it is difficult to build around the token in the long term. Most NFT-related projects have nothing else after launching the token and will eventually die a slow and tragic death."
Earlier news, when discussing potential airdrops, Adam Hollander, a member of the OpenSea team, said that a comprehensive assessment would be made based on user profiles: "For example, some people came here during the bull market and never returned. Others have only recently appeared with the purpose of 'taking advantage of the market'. Then there are those veterans who never left, experienced the test of the bear market, and are still here today. This information is being evaluated by the foundation."
