[EPIK Creator Responds to Controversy: Over 50% of Tokens Bought Back in 3 Years, Plans to Airdrop to Long-Term Supporters] Odaily Planet Daily News – In response to community skepticism regarding the viewpoint that 'holding 50% of tokens is meaningless,' EPIK creator Mando stated that he spent 3 years supporting the project and personally funded the buyback of over 50% of the tokens, rather than acquiring a large number of tokens through airdrops. Mando explained that he had jokingly mentioned creating EPIK during a livestream, but later invested seven-figure funds to support the token long-term. He emphasized that this approach is entirely different from how some KOLs (Key Opinion Leaders), creators, and celebrities obtained tokens and sold them over the past three years. He revealed that he did not conduct any buybacks on the day in question, but has cumulatively bought back over 50% of the tokens in the past three years. He is currently considering a phased airdrop of some tokens to community members and users who have provided long-term support.
