In the past two years,

the meme market has shifted from a growing market to a saturated market.

In such a red ocean environment,

those who can consistently profit are often only professional players.

If you don't consider yourself a professional player,

it's advisable to lower your positions,

and patiently wait for the next growth opportunity,

which may be the wiser choice.

Yesterday, I played MapleStory all day,

it felt like stepping into a time chamber,

and in the blink of an eye, a day had passed.

I also casually bought a bit of $NXPC,

consider it as buying a piece of lost youth.

I've also heard many voices discussing the current game mechanics,

such as not being able to make money, the enhancement system being too expensive, and not being reasonable, etc.

But perhaps slow and steady wins the race.

In the past, I also experienced the GameFi flywheel of AXIE and STEPN,

it was indeed very enjoyable when making money,

but the sustainability was truly very short-lived,

mainly because past GameFi projects usually emphasized fi over game.

As a well-established IP with a 20-year history,

I also hope that MapleStory can bring some different chemical changes to the market.

After all, in Taiwan,

MapleStory (Taiwan's version of MapleStory)

has consistently been the champion in trading volume on 8591 (game trading platform),

as long as the cheating issues are resolved,

its economic model,

might really have the chance to withstand the long-term test.
