Recently, I saw someone arguing about whether secondary markets should be forced to pay royalties or not.

Honestly, I can understand both sides: creators want ongoing income, while trading platforms feel "I don't want to take that extra cut."
But once the mandatory rule is on the blockchain, it becomes a rule—either it severely impacts user experience or it can be bypassed in a more awkward way...
As someone who works on cross-chain/account abstraction, I’m actually more sensitive: users will just think "Why am I being charged again?" and won't care about your underlying philosophy.

Not long ago, I also fell into a trap. A new protocol claimed to offer "on-chain revenue," and in the comments, people compared it to RWA and US bond yields.
Looking at all those buzzwords, I felt overwhelmed.
When I tried to dig in, I found I had to sign multiple authorizations and switch assets across chains...
I immediately got scared and closed it: if I don’t understand it, I won’t interact.
Anyway, losing a little profit is better than blindly giving away permissions.
My attitude toward royalties is similar: first, make transparency and default paths clear, or in the end, it’ll just be "who can bend the rules better."
