Recently, the experience of doing tasks on Plasma has indeed been a bit frustrating. Yesterday, while browsing TIMI, I inexplicably got clipped for 2 U, and today I lost another 2 U during operations. The losses from fees and slippage are becoming more and more outrageous, and the alpha erosion rate is also continuously increasing, leaving little room for small-scale participants.
What’s even more disheartening is that the airdrop score requirements are all above 240 points, but the operational costs to consistently achieve this score are shockingly high. Sometimes, after calculations, the earned airdrop points are not even enough to cover the interaction costs, which really makes me want to give up. It’s not that the project is bad, but the current participation thresholds and cost structures are clearly unfriendly to small users. If this continues, I guess fewer and fewer people will play.

Playing Plasma is just for fools, with transaction fees eating up profits, airdrops require desperately farming for wool, small investors deserve to be cut.

I really can't understand the operational logic of Plasma, I'm honestly exhausted.
It's okay that 4U is gone, but the cost structure is so painful, small investors really have no work.
That 240-point threshold, to be honest, I can't keep up anymore, it's not worth it.

Getting squeezed for 2 U and losing 2 U again, bro, you're not doing a task, you're doing charity, right?

Bro, watching this blood and tears story really hurts me. Plasma has indeed gone astray now, and small investors simply can't play anymore.

Ah, this is the fate of small investors—fees eat away at profits one after another.
The Plasma gameplay is becoming increasingly difficult to access; it's really not designed for small funds.
Is it really going to cost so much for 240 points? Might as well just get an airdrop directly, no need to bother.
Slippage and order sandwiching are no longer surprising; it's just exhausting.
Small users should have already given up on these projects' obsessions, right?

Another day of losing money, I really can't keep playing Plasma
Sliding around for fees every day, eating away half my life, small retail investors are just here to give away money
A 240-minute requirement is just a joke, with inverted costs, who would still play?
