Actually, everyone understands that the biggest fear for blockchain game pools isn't that no one is playing, but that they are "producing too actively"… At first, when I saw the APR skyrocketing, I also got itchy to jump in, saying it's just a Ponzi scheme, but my hands were honest. As a result, after two or three days, I realized: the extra tokens each day have nowhere to go, selling pressure hits like clockwork, TVL initially pretends to be dead then plunges, leaving only a bunch of people "waiting to break even" to keep each other warm.
These days, I've also noticed that funding rates are quite extreme, and the community is arguing whether it's a reversal or just more bubble squeezing. I think this kind of blockchain game setup is simpler: continuous inflation + new money stops, don't expect any "sentiment reversal," just slowly draining the pool. Anyway, I've learned my lesson now—it's fine to try out, but before adding more, take a look first: who is buying the output? If no one is buying, consider it tuition paid.
