These days, I’ve seen the secondary market arguing over royalties again.

I actually understand both sides: creators want continuous income, while trading platforms are afraid of losing liquidity.
But honestly, relying on “everyone’s self-discipline” for royalties is fragile once the market cools down, and in the end, it’s about who can generate more traffic and who can endure longer.

By the way, it made me think of those new L1/L2 projects offering incentives to pull in TVL, and how veteran users complain that “mining, selling” isn’t without reason…
Short-term data looks good, but in the long run, the mindset is trained to only recognize subsidies.
If the creator economy is only about subsidies and gambling, it’s like me hiding in a small cabin: lively outside, but very few who truly stay.

I need to be reminded: don’t always rely on rules to cover me; when creating or collecting, I still need to think clearly about what I want.
That’s all for now.
