    $KAS How much money is given and how many things can be done? For a mining machine worth 20,000 yuan, based on a 2-year payback cycle, the currency price is reasonable and normal at this position. Pulling the offer not only depends on the narrative and white paper, but also depends on how much money you have to do it. Market capitalization management. But I believe that KAS will definitely rise. I have already cleared SOL. I will find an opportunity to clear out ETH in the next two days and let KAS enter the third position.
