Soft compound vs. hard compound tires which lasts longer on e-dirt bikes?

Lately, I've been switching between soft and hard compounds on my e-dirt bike. The soft ones grip really well, but they seem to wear out quickly when I put the torque on. I'm curious about what everyone else is using and how long your tires are lasting!
 
I ride a lot of rocky trails, and I’ve found soft compounds hook up better but burn fast under torque. Hard compounds last longer, especially on mixed terrain, but lose grip in loose dirt
 
Absolutely! Soft tires provide great grip but they tend to wear down fast with aggressive riding. I usually opt for hard tires when tackling mixed terrain since they last longer, but I’ll admit they can feel a little sketchy on loose ground.
