Recently, I've been looking at the play-to-earn model in blockchain games, and honestly, many pools are just relying on constantly issuing new tokens to sustain production.

As inflation rises, prices soften, and players start waiting: waiting for confirmations, waiting for a dip to re-enter, waiting for others to run first, waiting to figure things out...
The result is that liquidity becomes thinner the longer they wait, and the more aggressively the output is dumped, ultimately killing the pool itself.

What's even more annoying is that the sequence issues on-chain are also being heavily criticized: miners/validators are earning steadily, MEV front-running, retail investors entering and exiting as if their cards are being peeked at.
You're still tangled up in whether you're losing because of poor tech skills, but often it's just you stubbornly enduring in a structure of inflation and being harvested.
My blunt advice: if you can't calculate where the inflation is coming from, don't touch it.
Relying on printing money to break even will eventually make you pay tuition.
That's all for now, go get some sleep.
