Recently, I came across a few more blockchain game pools. The interface looks quite lively, and the APY is well advertised, but just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle: the output relies entirely on continuously issuing tokens, while the consumption side can't keep up, eventually turning into "mining every day, selling every day." It's even more obvious when a studio gets involved—running faster than anyone else. When the token price drops, the output's value decreases even more, and everyone just wants to rush to sell, and the spiral keeps turning like that.
Now, to avoid impulsively placing an order, I usually start by noting down the source of the returns: whether it's transaction fees, genuine paid users, or purely inflation subsidies; then I check if there's a "buyback mechanism" to absorb the tokens (otherwise, it's basically just issuing and then abandoning). Anyway, if I don't understand it, I put it on my observation list first, and revisit it the next day... taking it slow is fine, so I don't get caught up and become a bag-holder reader.
