Recently, there's been a lot of talk about royalties in the secondary market.
Honestly, everyone just wants "free trading," but the creators' ongoing income is even more uncertain.
I'm feeling quite冷 (detached): if a project relies on "voluntary payments" to survive, it will likely be exposed when the tide goes out.
Don't idolize the narrative.
I've set a rule for myself: participate if you want to, follow the usual process,
if you can see the rules clearly, follow them; if not, just pass by.
Remember what needs to be recorded, and reclaim authorization when necessary,
don't swallow the risk just because of the words "support creators."
By the way, I can also understand why retail investors complain about the ordering and MEV system—
who can cut in line on-chain, who can take an extra bite, is actually similar to the royalty dispute:
rules are unstable, and in the end, it's the small players who pay the price.
Let's start with this for now, and slowly pick up shells.
