Infinex Conducts Token Launch on Sonar Platform

Project Overview

Infinex is a decentralized finance platform launched by Synthetix founder Kain Warwick in April 2024. The project aims to bridge the gap between CeFi and DeFi, offering the smooth user experience of a centralized exchange while maintaining the non-custodial and secure nature of decentralized services.

Participation Guide and Details

On November 27, Infinex, a new project created by Synthetix founder Kain Warwick, officially announced its upcoming TGE and plans to conduct a public sale on Sonar with a $300 million FDV. It intends to sell 5% of the INX token supply to raise $15 million, choosing Sonar as the launch platform.

According to Infinex's official introduction, this public sale will have two participation paths: a guaranteed quota and a lottery allocation. The guaranteed quota is for users holding liquid (unlocked) Patron NFTs, with specific guarantee strategies as follows:

  • 1 Patron NFT: $2,000 quota;
  • 5 Patron NFTs: $15,000 quota;
  • 25 Patron NFTs: $100,000 quota;
  • 100 Patron NFTs: $500,000 quota;

Allocations follow a cumulative mechanism. For example, if you hold 32 liquid Patron NFTs, your quota will be: 100,000 + 15,000 + 2,000 + 2,000 = $119,000.

The lottery allocation is open to all users; anyone can apply to participate. The specific rules are as follows:

Minimum subscription amount is $200, maximum is $5,000;

If subscriptions exceed the limit, orders will be allocated via lottery;

Each order has an equal chance of being selected. If selected, the order will be fully allocated;

Unfulfilled orders will be automatically refunded.

Notably, this public sale will have a one-year lock-up period but includes an early unlock clause. The design for early unlock is as follows:

At TGE, if early unlock is chosen, the subscription will be at a price corresponding to a $1 billion FDV;

During the one-year lock-up period, this price will linearly decrease to the initially set $300 million FDV;

If the trading price of INX after listing is higher than the real-time early unlock price, some public sale participants may choose to unlock early, smoothing the unlock curve.

When Crypto Faith Becomes the 'Plato's Cave' in Modern Investing

In "When Crypto Belief Becomes a Modern 'Plato's Cave'," the author reflects on how initial optimism in cryptocurrency has evolved into a "sunk cost trap," where past investments—whether financial, temporal, or emotional—keep individuals tethered to an ecosystem that may no longer serve their best interests. Drawing parallels to Plato’s allegory of the cave, the piece argues that many in crypto remain chained not by ignorance but by their accumulated stakes, mistaking shadows (past efforts) for reality. The author shares a personal journey from professional poker to crypto, illustrating how sunk costs—like a decade in poker—can create a "luxurious trap" that’s hard to escape. Despite crypto’s maturation (e.g., Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, Robinhood adopting blockchain tech), the landscape has shifted: traditional finance co-opts crypto innovations, and gains increasingly flow to insiders or equities rather than retail token holders. The article categorizes crypto adherents into four camps (pro-Bitcoin, pro-crypto, both, or neither) and further divides them based on belief in future upside. It suggests that only those fully convinced of crypto’s potential should devote all their time to it; others should diversify skills and consider exit strategies. The core message: don’t let sunk costs imprison you in a fading dream. Freedom lies in acknowledging when to step away and explore broader opportunities beyond the crypto.
