Ever since the TGE dropped, perpetual DEX farmers have been through the wringer. You'd think yield farming on perp platforms would be a goldmine, but the reality hits different. Token inflation, slashed rewards, market volatility—it all catches up fast. The farmer life on these platforms looks nothing like the early days. Still, some are holding tight, waiting for the next cycle to prove them right.

Laughing out loud, it's another round of pulling the wool over investors' eyes. The dream of farming should have ended long ago.

I knew early on that farming is just a game of cutting leeks, but it's too late to wake up now --- Wait, does anyone really believe in the next cycle? I think it's a joke --- Token inflation leads directly to a death spiral once it starts. Who can withstand that? --- Perpetual mining? Might as well just throw the coins in and bet on the multiplier, at least you know you're losing --- Sticking to loneliness, I've already run away --- Really, I did make money in the early days, but now I can only watch my account shrink and sigh --- Next cycle... Are you talking about the next cut? Hahaha --- Isn't that the life of a farmer? It's always been like that --- Has anyone thought clearly about why these platforms give you such high rewards?

Haha, it's another group of farmers waiting for the wind. Will they be able to wait this time? --- I knew it from the start, everyone was thinking about making easy money, but now, it's all tears... --- Reality is so harsh. Those who entered early are doing okay, but later ones have all been cut like leeks. --- What's the point of holding on? Better to try new projects on other chains; maybe you'll turn things around. --- The收益农业 of perpetual platforms has long turned into a收益"fantasy". --- Waiting for the next cycle? Bro, this cycle will take years to come, and my patience is already breaking. --- Token inflation, this cancerous problem, has never been truly solved by any platform. --- I think, it's better to become a trader; at least you understand what you're gambling on. --- I've seen through it long ago, each project team follows the same routine. Once the novelty wears off, it's over.

Early yield farming dreams have been shattered, now it's all blood, sweat, and tears. Farmers are really having a tough time; inflation reduction combined with volatility—who can withstand this combo? We still have to wait for the bull market to save us, otherwise all this perseverance is really pointless. Who is still digging? Get up and say something. Since TGE, things haven't been good; just look at the current yields, it's hilarious. Wait, wait, when will this cycle come... Will it really arrive? The yield on perpetual platforms is just a trap; it's too late to regret now.

The early days of yield farming are dead, now it's all about inflation and cutting leeks. What are you waiting for, the next round?
