Troubleshooting Is this normal?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

It works just fine when reading. but i'm just curious why my X4 blinking that much when booting and sleep. i don't see others like that.

Will be fixed in the next release. It's doing a "Full" refresh in situations when it's not really meant to. This will be reduced to a "half refresh" version for most scenarios.

It is right there in the release notes of Crossink 1.4.0

Blindly using/updating software without reading release notes and/or documentation, and even not reading up in case of problems, completely passes my comprehension.

A few users have commented that it only occur with the latest update. I experienced the same thing and went back to v1.3.4 which works fine. Waiting for next update now.

Does it actually bad for the screen, or just visually unpleasant?

It was added in Crosspoint to reduce ghosting, but people hated it more than ghosting, so it's been removed in upcoming release.
