Based on the trading volume I've generated on @tread_fi for @risextrade and the different tests I've run, the best setups so far have been Blend +6 and DGrid.
For DGrid, the results were much better when the market wasn't moving in a range.
Mid Price +3 has also delivered solid results for me.
For larger volume targets, try spreading the volume across multiple trades and different pairs with smaller sizes instead of pushing a large amount of volume into a single pair all at once. This approach has worked better for me.
I've been active in the NFT market for several years and have witnessed multiple market cycles.
Back then, it was completely normal for an NFT to do a 10x or even 20x shortly after mint. Sometimes the gas fee was higher than the mint price itself, yet people were still willing to pay.
One thing I've been noticing lately is the decline of utility driven projects and the rise of degen collections, and I don't think that's a healthy direction for the NFT space.
More and more projects are launching with no real vision, no long term plans, and no value creation for holders. The focus is often on marketing, influencer hype, and reaching mint as quickly as possible.
A few people make money in the first hours after launch, then the hype disappears, volume dries up, and most holders are left holding the bag.
My unpopular opinion:
This trend is slowly damaging the NFT market.
Not because people lose money, but because it destroys trust. Every failed hype driven launch makes people more hesitant to support new projects, including the legitimate ones.
That's why I pay attention to projects that focus on long term value rather than short term hype.
One of the things I like about @RallyOnChain is that it's not just building a community. It's building a platform where creators and contributors can actually participate and grow over time.
The NFT space needs more projects focused on sustainability and real engagement, not just the next mint.
Do you think the rise of degen projects is helping NFTs grow, or slowly damaging trust in the space?
I've been spending more time on @risextrade recently, and one thing I've realized is that Perp trading is much more than just profit and loss.
Most traders focus on PnL, but funding costs, liquidity, position management, and trading activity often tell a completely different story.
That's one of the reasons I'm staying active on RiseX.
Right now, my goal isn't simply making profitable trades.
I'm using this time to understand the platform better, test different strategies, build trading volume, and gain experience while the ecosystem is still in its early stages.
Personally, I believe some of the biggest opportunities come from being early.
Maybe active traders and early users will be rewarded in the future.
Maybe they won't.
Either way, participating early allows you to learn, adapt, and understand the platform before the crowd arrives.
For now, I'll keep trading, keep learning, and keep staying active on RiseX.
Let's see where this journey leads.
