Last night I came across an old NFT, and suddenly remembered that back in the day, buying tapes also involved "original creator royalties," but in the secondhand market, when you resell, the store wouldn't keep paying the singer every time... Now with secondary royalties causing a big fuss, I can understand that creators want stable income, but forcibly tying every transaction to royalties is basically like plugging a hard ad into a radio—it's uncomfortable to listen to, and users will find ways to avoid it.



Not to mention recently everyone has been criticizing miners/validators for their income, MEV ordering being unfair, retail investors feeling like they’re always at the back of the line. Add more royalties on top, and it feels even more like "being taxed again." The last time I encountered a new protocol, its rules were written as convoluted as an old radio manual—if you don’t understand it, just don’t touch it; missing out is fine, at least you can sleep peacefully. For creator economy to go far, it probably still depends on the community’s willingness to spend money, rather than turning every resale into the same screw.
