Recently, various social mining/points systems have been flooding the scene, basically just trading time for badges and a sense of "identity." I also want to get some benefits, but my funds are limited, so I care more about whether the curve is stable: just spend half an hour each day checking the order book, pulling the inventory deviation back, and not being led around by tasks. Last night, I also looked on the chain and saw that in a certain pool, 0x7a…c3 traded back and forth several times, and the transaction fees almost ate up the "points earnings," which was quite awkward.
Now many projects make "activity" a KPI, and I get caught up in boosting interactions until I get annoyed, losing sight of trading discipline. The NFT royalty debate is also quite heated—on one side, they say they want to support creators, and on the other, they say secondary liquidity can't handle it... After hearing all that, I just want to say: don’t turn into another form of forcing people to grind tasks. Anyway, I set a deadline for myself: earn as many points as I can, but don’t drain my days just for a badge.
