Lately, the debate over whether secondary markets should collect royalties has been heated. Honestly, everyone just wants to reap liquidity dividends but doesn't want to pay an extra cent. The creator economy is often praised nicely, but when it comes to trading, it turns into: whoever can pay less in friction costs wins. From my perspective as someone who has been an LP, royalties are like an invisible fee rate added to your pool. Short-term transactions might look better? Maybe, but who will ultimately keep paying for the content... Anyway, it's not the group that claims to support it the most.



Why did I get the itch to place a few orders? It's simple—seeing a market with "royalty-free + volume boost," my brain automatically fills in "this liquidity is coming back, I can sell first," similar to testing network points or minting tokens on the mainnet: even if uncertain, I want to take a spot, just afraid of missing out. Later, I realized it was pretty stupid—creators aren't philanthropists, and traders definitely aren't either. First, clarify the rules clearly; don’t pretend to support co-creation while acting like you don’t see the costs. I’d rather participate less in this kind of game.
