Ethos Network's S1 has concluded, and participants face two options: burn 50% XP to exchange for an NFT, or stake with 3 validators to earn 50% XP rewards.



Some users are currently ranked #46 (with a total of 1.89M XP), and the final choice was to burn XP. The reason is straightforward—the rarity of the NFT is entirely determined by the amount of XP burned. Since higher-ranked users have burned more XP, their corresponding NFT weight naturally increases. Under this design, the deeper the early accumulation, the more potential there is for gains after burning.

Both options have their own considerations: for stable returns, choose staking with validators; for betting on the future value and weight of the NFT, choose burning XP. The project uses this mechanism to let participants weigh their options, which is quite interesting.

The idea of ranking high and burning XP still has some merit. Anyway, since so much was mined early on and there's nowhere to put it, why not take a gamble on NFT weighting?

Rank 46 directly burns 50%, this guy is really ruthless, betting that this NFT will turn around later. But on the other hand, if those who were so aggressive in the early days had burned, they might actually be worth more now.

Ranked 46th, burned 1.89M XP. This guy is really all in, betting on NFT weight to take off later.

Ranking high and burning XP is really satisfying, but can NFTs really be valuable in the future?

Burn XP for higher rankings; this guy is betting that NFT value will rise. The early advantage of the wool party was locked in this way.

Wow, I’m convinced by this logic. The intense competition in the early stages is what makes the burn so satisfying now.
