These days, there's more talk about NFT royalties again. Basically, creators want to earn a long-term income, but the secondary market complains that charging too much kills liquidity... It’s exhausting to watch. As someone who often trades spot positions, I can actually understand: frequent buying and selling, with fees/royalties stacking up, makes the mindset shift from “holding for fun” to “forget it, not bothering anymore.” But not charging at all would indeed make creators more likely to sell their art once, and even if the community gets excited later, it has nothing to do with them.

If I had impulsively bought those projects back then, maybe I wouldn’t have been so eager to sell just because the royalty mechanism was more transparent or the purpose was clearer (like buybacks to support the floor price, running events, or supporting the team). Now I’ve learned my lesson: when I see a project with huge royalty disputes, I don’t pretend to stay calm. I admit I’ll experience FOMO, then reduce my position... If I lose money, I’ll just consider it tuition and review my strategy.
