Lately there's been more talk about NFT royalties again, whether creators' income should be protected, and whether secondary market liquidity should be prioritized. It feels like everyone is quite anxious... I keep thinking as I scroll: honestly, it's just like the tug-of-war between stalls and the marketplace. If you want people to keep browsing, you also have to let the vendors make a living.

When I buy NFTs myself, I really lean towards a "pixel aesthetic obsession," first writing my budget on paper, and whether I flip or not is more of a matter of chance. What I don't regret is... supporting a few creators I genuinely like by paying a bit more back then, at least I feel at ease inside. I also don't want to pick sides or criticize anyone; no matter how rules change, someone will feel uncomfortable. I just hope it doesn't end up in an awkward middle ground where "creators survive solely on love" and "players are all taxed." For now, that's it. I'll keep watching the show.
