Is it worth trying out Axie Infinity with 10 bucks?
Instead of blindly listening to market rumors, why not use that cup of milk tea money to buy some AXS and observe for yourself? If you're not aiming for quick riches, just want to secure a good position in this round of GameFi reshuffling.
**Can bAXS really revive the ecosystem?** The official hype around the AXS staking mechanism is pretty strong, with the main selling point being to end the chaos of bots farming rewards and redistribute benefits to genuine players. It sounds good, but can the new policy truly fix the economic model and rekindle user enthusiasm? That depends on future daily active user data.
**How to handle the unlock on February 6, 2026?** The new tokens will unlock, but the amount isn't large (about 0.7% of circulating supply). However, market psychology is hard to predict — some might panic sell in advance, while others might have already digested the bad news and see a rebound. This timing is quite critical.
**Risks and realities** AXS's monthly price swings often exceed 30%. Ten dollars could become zero or multiply three to five times. The GameFi sector is now very fierce, and I believe everyone can feel that — it’s not easy for Axie to reclaim its throne.
**My small experimental plan** • Investment: 10 USDT (0.1% of total assets, not a big loss if it fails) • Holding logic: Long-term observation without selling, unless the project’s fundamentals completely collapse (e.g., daily active users drop more than 50%) or the bAXS reform is fully discredited. Otherwise, don’t rush to cut losses. • Monitoring list: Daily active addresses on Ronin chain, AXS staking ratio, NFT trading activity (check data on DappRadar)

Uh, I've heard the bAXS explanation many times, but there's still no sign of daily active users bouncing back.
Is 10 dollars really enough? It seems like we need to see how the upcoming unlock wave unfolds.
I've already cut my losses with AXS once before; I can't handle a 30% volatility.

Spending ten bucks on Axie is not even as good as just waiting for the airdrop from the big boss directly, haha.
The bAXS reform has been hyped for so long. In my opinion, just watch the daily active users and ignore the official nonsense.
On the day of unlocking, it will probably be a mess, with the old waves getting wiped out on the beach.
Losing ten bucks and ending up with zero isn't a big deal anyway; I always do this kind of wool-harvesting.

Try it out with 10 bucks, it's just for fun anyway, the cost of milk tea. Whether bAXS will succeed this time depends on the data.

Honestly, the GameFi sector is now just gambling. It's not easy for Axie to make a comeback.
---
A monthly fluctuation of over 30% is so exciting. I'm still on the sidelines, waiting for daily active user data to decide.
---
There will definitely be panic selling on the day of unlocking, but it might also be absorbed quickly and then rise. Who can predict this psychological game accurately?
---
I only dare to invest 0.1% of my total assets, so I don't really deserve to talk about risk management haha.
---
I need to review the data on DappRadar before deciding whether to hold on. It's too early to draw conclusions now.
---
Rather than listening to market news, it's more straightforward to test with small amounts of money myself.
---
If bAXS can really drive away bots, then this ecosystem can be saved. Otherwise, it’s still dead.
---
I wouldn't mind if ten bucks turn into zero; doubling my money is a win. That’s the right mindset.

Playing Axie for 10 yuan is basically paying for a lesson; anyway, I can't even enjoy the bubble tea
The bAXS narrative sounds good, but whether the ecosystem can really be revived is still uncertain. Anyway, I'll wait and see the data first
The February unlock was indeed very tight, gambling on psychological games—who wins is hard to say
GameFi is now just a meat grinder. Axie needs to rely on real data to turn things around and survive
