Airdrops first, then a public sale—this is a common industry practice.
Infinex's INX token public sale has sparked quite a bit of discussion, with two main voices in the community.
One side believes this is an opportunity to be cautious about. The public sale has a scale of $300M FDV, mandatory 1-year lock-up, the same valuation as private rounds, and no discounts for the public—meaning ordinary participants bear the greatest liquidity risk. Even more upsetting, founder Kain Warwick exchanged 2021 prices for liquidity in 2027, and the internal unlock schedule is both different and not publicly disclosed. Some even pointed out that the project removed the only competitive advantage—free trading. Based on these points, the recommendation is to skip the public sale and consider buying liquid tokens after TGE if the valuation drops below $150M FDV.
The other side holds a different view. Some have already registered for the INX public sale, with a FDV price of $99.99M, scheduled from January 3-6, 2026. From this perspective, participants seem confident in the project's prospects.
Both viewpoints are based on real data. Who is a warning, who is promotion—time will tell after Infinex TGE. Ultimately, the decision depends on your own research.

It's the same old trick again, insiders eat the meat while ordinary people drink the soup, truly amazing.

It's the same old trick again—overestimating FDV is one thing, but locking up tokens so aggressively?

It's the same trick again—locking up for a year with no discount. Why not wait for a dip?

300M to 150M... This decline is a bit optimistic. Let's see when the private placements start unlocking, that will be the real stress test. A one-year lock-up is a shackle for retail investors, but it’s very flexible internally.

Wait, Kain's move is indeed a bit aggressive, exchanging 2021 prices for 2027 liquidity? That's just outrageous.
