Which blockchain is a good option for a new token? (need your opinion)

[GREY]

Recently, I just got into making a token or blockchain based project seriously and studied different whitepapers and tokenomics. But in terms of the chain, I am asking here to find out what can be a good option. I personally chose TON since it's affordable and easy. SOL also is affordable, easy and fast (TON is also fast but not as fast as SOL).
ETH is good (and since it's one of the oldest ones, might be promising) but with the current state of Ethereum, it's a little bit too risky. Also fees are really high on ETH.
One of my friends made an L1 ethereum compatible chain as well and I talked to him for deploying some projects there (which is absolutely free) but they're not really open to the world outside of Iran yet.
If you want to start a project, which one is your choice and why?

Honestly, none of these options sound that solid right now. TON might be cheap and "easy," but it’s barely battle-tested compared to real L1s and lacks serious DeFi infrastructure. SOL is fast, sure — until it goes down again like it has multiple times in the past. ETH being "risky" is odd to say when it's literally the most secure and adopted chain out there, despite fees. And launching on a private chain that’s not even open to the global market is basically like building a project no one will ever see. Feels like you're picking options for convenience over actual viability.

Honestly, I feel like choosing a blockchain these days is like picking a gym membership:

• ETH is the fancy, pricey gym downtown where you pay an arm and a leg but hope it makes you look cool.
• SOL is the shiny new CrossFit box where everyone’s moving fast and sweating less.
• TON is the cozy neighborhood yoga studio—affordable and chill, but maybe not the fastest downward dog in town.
• And your friend’s chain? That’s the underground speakeasy with free entry but you gotta whisper the secret password in Farsi first.

If it were me, I’d probably go with the yoga studio vibe—TON—because who doesn’t love a good stretch without the fees giving you cramps? But hey, if I want to sprint like a crypto Usain Bolt, SOL’s my track. ETH? Only if I’m ready to sell a kidney for gas fees.
