1. Buy early MAX
More slots make every later TIER upgrade pay back faster. The optimized first route starts with MAX, then TIER.

How to Get Cash Fast in Merge a Nuke
The practical answer is to balance Spawn Tier and Max Spawn, then rebirth when your highest owned nuke reaches the current gate.
what to do first
Fast Cash Short Answer
2. Do not pure-rush TIER
Pure TIER reaches the same gate much later because TIER cost grows faster than MAX cost.
3. Rebirth on gate
Once you actually own the required nuke tier, rebirth is usually better than delaying for expensive late MAX levels.

What Changes Cash Farming Time
Multipliers shorten time
Cash Mult, rebirth bonus, friends and event boosts scale the wait times down. They usually do not change the TIER/MAX order.
PvP and cities are side income
Raids and city attacks can add bursts, but the stable route still comes from reinvesting into production upgrades.
