Recently, I've seen a bunch of narratives about re-staking / shared security again, with yields stacking layer upon layer, making it sound like easy money. To be honest, you're not getting more money; you're just rebranding the same risk and selling it again: if the underlying asset encounters problems, you all bear the brunt; if the upper layer has issues, you can't escape either. The key also depends on whether the exit path is smooth or not. If liquidity is thinner, even higher rewards are just a paper thrill.
What's even more amusing is the current social mining, fan tokens, and that "attention is mining" concept. It sounds cool, but can attention really be converted into cash at any time? When the hype dies down, who will support your little "consensus"? Anyway, I’d rather keep an eye on unlock schedules and order books, at least knowing when I might get wrecked. Don’t let illusions get staked along with it… I’m going to work.
