I find that every time I see a new pool opening in a blockchain game, I get itchy hands, not because I think I can get rich overnight, but that feeling of "getting in early to mine a few more shovels"... Basically, it's fear of missing out, even though I know there's a high chance it's just connected to inflation.

Many pools collapse because of a very simple reason: the output is too easy to produce, but the consumption can't keep up. Every day, new tokens come out of the faucet, but there’s no real demand in the game to burn them, so they can only be sold externally. The liquidity in the pool gets drained little by little, becoming thinner and thinner, which makes everyone more anxious. Then the project team comes with another round of "adding rewards to boost confidence," but that just accelerates inflation, leading straight to a crash.

Recently, the NFT royalty disputes are quite similar: creators want continuous income, traders want liquidity, and once the mechanism tilts to one side, the other side votes with their feet. Blockchain games are the same—if rewards favor miners, short-term money flows in; if they favor consumption, no one plays... I’m just going to be honest now, first figure out how much net increase there is each day, whether the pool is deep enough, and resist clicking confirm. That’s how I’ll proceed for now.
