Back in 2021, crypto project teams were extremely cautious about token launches—worried about potential regulatory crackdowns from authorities. Fast forward four years, and the landscape has shifted dramatically. Today's political climate is surprisingly welcoming to digital assets, with top officials openly engaging with the crypto community. What was once considered risky is now mainstream. The fear that kept teams sidelined has evaporated, replaced by a wave of confidence. It's a remarkable reversal: from hiding in the shadows to operating in the spotlight.

Policy trends... really can change the entire ecosystem. From the silence and fear in 2021 to now where big players dare to openly argue and token mechanisms are confidently launched—honestly, it's happening a bit too fast. But we need to think this through clearly: is it truly a friendly policy environment or just a window of a few years? I'm more concerned about those projects riding the trend—gameplay metrics, deflation models, player retention... have these fundamentals kept up? Don't let it turn into another wave of cutting leeks when policies shift again. Confidence shouldn't be built on political cycles.

This transformation is truly amazing. I can still vividly remember the cautious look of the lineup back in 2021.

NGL, this change is too fast. In 2021, I was still worried, and now it's directly officially recognized? Feels a bit shady.

Huh? How did that bunch of shrinking turtles in 2021 suddenly dare to do it? Has the policy really shifted?

The regulatory paranoia of 2021 now seems like a joke; the winds are changing way too quickly.

The policy direction has changed, and this time it's not just empty words. From the cautiousness back in 2021 to now being blatant, you can really see the official attitude doing a 180-degree turn. The question is, how long can this wave of enthusiasm last? Regulation has always been a double-edged sword.

ngl this change is happening a bit too quickly... In 2021, we were still playing hide and seek, and now it's directly on the official platform. The plot twist feels way too wild.

What the hell are you still talking about 2021 for? That's old news, brother.
