Many projects are following the same approach—manual "reward loyal holders." But is this really the optimal solution?



A perspective worth pondering: rather than spending effort on subsidies, it’s better to fundamentally calibrate the incentive mechanism. With the right incentives, the market will automatically help you identify true believers.

This is the correct attitude to build long-term competitiveness. Project teams need to understand that forcing "retention" often backfires. Instead, those with clever economic models can encourage participants to choose to stay voluntarily. Good token design is not about subsidies, but about enabling each participant to find their value within the ecosystem. Only then can a product truly stand the test of the market.

The subsidy approach is really outdated; the economic model is the core.

It sounds good, but how many projects have actually achieved this in reality? Most are still relying on subsidies to survive.

Basically, it's still the same old story—there are only a handful of projects that can truly deliver.

Subsidies and this gameplay were outdated long ago; frankly, it's just a band-aid solution. The real way to retain people is still that well-designed economic model.
