I'm becoming increasingly conservative about the "secondary market royalties" issue: don't expect to save creators solely through enforced commissions; those who survive usually rely on the quality of their work and distribution channels. Royalties are more like a bonus, not a life-saving remedy.



The reasons are quite practical as well. Enforced royalties look very just on the blockchain, but once it reaches routers/aggregators, it starts to go awry: detours, splitting orders, markets that don't support royalties, ultimately turning into "who has the sneakiest path wins," leaving creators more passive. To put it plainly, the more complex the mechanism, the easier it is for the most cunning to exploit and drain it completely.

Recently, everyone has been interpreting ETF capital flows, US stock risk appetite, and crypto price movements together, and I find it a bit exhausting... When emotions run high, people chase hot topics, but slow variables like royalties simply don't have the patience for discussion. Personally, I prefer to see projects clearly specify royalties, give users choices, and solidify traceable on-chain revenue sharing—don't rely on moral pressure. I really can't stand poorly designed systems.
