Here's the thing about DeFi yield claims—you can't really pay asset holders interest without tapping into platform profits. That 'free money' everyone talks about? It's just the protocol's earnings getting redistributed. The math doesn't work any other way. 😏

Basically, it's like hot potato; no one can escape this cycle.

Oh my God, isn't this just another name for Ponzi? The entire DeFi is just playing hot potato.

Brother Tian is right. I stopped touching projects with ridiculously high APY long ago. To put it simply, it's Ponzi schemes in disguise, and the house will eventually collapse.

This is exactly the point I've been trying to expose... Things that appear to offer high returns are essentially just the platform transferring profits, with no real source of income. The problem is that most people simply can't see through this logic.
