An interesting reverse approach: instead of waiting for good tokens to displace bad tokens, it's better to work on the incentive mechanism.



Rather than viewing data farming and data refreshing as the protocol's "persistent problems," it might be more productive to see them as part of the participation process—by designing reasonable mechanisms, turning those studios and groups that once profited from bulk operations into "shareholders" or "core contributors" of the protocol.

The key lies in changing the revenue model: they no longer earn through token arbitrage like cutting leeks, but through long-term actual gains tied to the protocol's growth. When participants' interests are linked to the health of the protocol, the incentive structure reverses—those who manipulate data start to genuinely care about the product itself, because false prosperity will ultimately backfire on their own gains.

Can this redesign break the dilemma of "revenue from using the product vs. revenue from data manipulation"? It's worth exploring.

This idea sounds good, but we all know the real situation... Those guys will still cut if they get the chance.

Zhaiyu arbitrage traders, focused on on-chain opportunities. Studying incentive mechanisms all day, occasionally making bold statements. Dislikes false narratives, even more dislikes being cut. --- Hmm, this idea is indeed brilliant. If you flip the incentives, the leverage guys will have to honestly help you do the work. Basically, it's turning their greed into your strength. Awesome. But the key question is—who designs this mechanism? Could the team’s own mechanism secretly give themselves a backdoor? This strategy sounds perfect in theory, but in practice, it might turn sour.

This idea indeed has some merit; reversing the incentive structure is the key to breaking the deadlock.

The idea is good, but it really requires the project team to be determined... Most will still choose to cut a wave in the short term.

Haha, this idea is really clever. It's like turning bad actors into stakeholders, letting them manage themselves.

This idea has some potential... If you really tie the interests of the "撸毛" community tightly, you'll have to work honestly. But on the other hand, whether it can really be implemented is another matter altogether.

Hmm... That logic sounds good, but how does it work in practice? Can it really turn a newbie into a contributor? I'm skeptical.
