Re-staking this wave, I don't oppose it, but I also don't dare to treat it as "profit hacking." To put it simply, when profits stack up, risks and illusions also stack up: the underlying assets haven't increased, but the responsibilities have layered on more. Sharing security sounds great, but if something goes wrong, how the priority is arranged, who bears the responsibility, and the execution details are a mess, then no matter how beautiful the process looks, it’s useless.
Recently, I've seen everyone focusing on testnet incentives, earning points, and guessing every day whether the mainnet will issue tokens, and the atmosphere is a bit like preemptively counting future airdrops as salary. Anyway, what I care more about now is: whether the penalty mechanism is clearly explained, who holds operational permissions, and whether there are plans for one-click shutdown/rollback if problems occur... these are more real than point screenshotting. For now, let's leave it at that—don't treat re-staking as risk-free compound interest.
