In recent days, Avalanche has implemented a major update that significantly changed how gas fees work on the network. This change has had a strong impact on the profitability of minting XEN, and if you’ve been following the project, you’ll know that such moments often open the door to new opportunities.

New Gas Model – Minting Almost for Free
Right after the update, transaction fees dropped dramatically. For several hours, it was possible to mint new XENFTs for nearly nothing. Compared to the new conditions, all earlier mints are now far less profitable. But there’s no reason to worry – this is just the beginning.
AMP Still High – 2019 and Falling
As of today, the AMP stands at 2019. That’s still a high multiplier, considering we’re heading towards 1. This means we’re still early, and it’s a great time to build your position, because minting now gives significantly more than it will in the future.
I’m Minting Below 0.25 Gwei – You Can Too
At the moment, I’m minting with gas set around 0.25 gwei or even lower. The cost of creating a single XENFT (on VMU 72) is only around $0.05–$0.06 at current prices – that’s extremely low given the long-term potential of XEN.
Avalanche – A Solid Foundation for Long-Term Growth
AVAX is one of those chains with the fundamentals to stay around long-term. Its market cap remains strong, DeFi is developing actively, and the ecosystem continues to attract projects. XEN has a clear space to grow and find its place here.
My Strategy? Simple and Consistent:
-
Mint when it’s cheap and quiet.
-
Claim regularly.
-
Stake everything.
-
Build financial freedom one token at a time.
Even if you only have 1 AVAX, that’s enough to start. It’s not about throwing in hundreds of dollars. It’s about consistent action and trusting the process. In this game, the winners are not the loudest entries but the ones who stay long enough to see it through.
See you on-chain.
