Recently, there's been more debate about whether secondary markets should pay royalties, essentially how cash flows are divided. From the creator's perspective, of course, they want to maintain ongoing income, but exchanges/markets feel "I facilitate the transactions, I get to decide." I personally see this issue based on accounting habits: if royalties are truly long-term incentives, then don’t rely solely on moral appeals; it’s better to have on-chain rules written into the code, or at least clearly explain what happens if royalties are not paid, otherwise it’s just a muddled account, and in the end, it all comes down to arguments.
Additionally, hardware wallets have been out of stock lately, phishing links are abundant, and everyone's security awareness has improved, but it’s also quite ironic: on one hand, advocating for creator protection, and on the other, people haven't even checked what they signed for their own assets. There’s so much information that I feel anxious… My filtering method now is pretty crude: only look at vault deposits and withdrawals, income sources, and who can change the rules. The rest of the noise is just background. Anyway, I want to get the accounts straight first before moving on.
