DeFi researcher Ignas criticized KAST’s recently announced points redemption plan, saying that even if KAST spends millions of dollars hiring lawyers, the returns users will ultimately receive remain unclear. Ignas believes tokens often do not serve the community’s interests and may allow teams or insiders to capture value. Ignas urged project teams to prioritize designing tokens that serve the community, saying KAST, Pump, OpenSea, and MetaMask have failed to fulfill their previous promises.
