On-chain applications need to build long-term business; what keeps users engaged? It's not high returns, nor flashy features, but a more fundamental element—the ability to verify the rules.



Here's a practical issue: when off-chain signals enter the blockchain, without a traceable and auditable complete pathway, problems arise. Users will ask: Are the rewards fair? Are the trigger conditions genuine? Can the same conditions reproduce the same results? Without clear answers to these questions, trust begins to break down.

Once the cost of trust is shifted onto users, growth becomes fragile. Users will repeatedly hesitate when participating, and communities can easily split.

The value of oracle-like infrastructure lies precisely here—it makes the integration of verifiable signals a standard capability, allowing key decisions to truly approach an engineering audit system. For developers, this reduces the trust burden they need to bear; for users, participation becomes more secure, and rules clearer.

The larger the ecosystem, the more critical this underlying trustworthiness becomes. It determines how big the entire ecosystem can grow.

That's right, which is why so many projects fail. Flashy incentive mechanisms are not trusted.

That’s really harsh, hitting the nail on the head. A bunch of projects rely on opaque rules to harvest profits, and users rush in blindly without understanding.

Well said. Many projects nowadays suffer from this problem, with data being a black box to death.

Ultimately, it's a trust issue. Without transparent audit trails on the blockchain, users will eventually run away.

Basically, it means you have to be transparent, or you'll eventually mess up.

Basically, it's about trust. On-chain applications without transparency will eventually fail.

Well said, that's why so many projects fail quickly — users simply don't trust your rules.
