Pencils Protocol PreisDAPP

$ARENA breaking out Long overdue for the most complete SoFi dapp out there. Momentum in the trenches from the recent implementation of their launcher sparked the move, with champion badge holders receiving a portion of every graduated token. $1.00 is a magnet

$TOAI | @Traceonai_eth Just a beautifull chart so for for $TOAI. Up more then 100% since my last post, and hype is building up for the dApp release. Really excited for the tools they will bring out, im personally looking forward to RugTrace. With $TOAI having a very low marketcap it is still good RR here.

𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐓𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐈𝐬 𝐉𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐚 𝐇𝐞𝐢𝐬𝐭... 𝐕𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 A Weekend Dose: "If you’re calling it a distribution and not a diversion, you’re lying to yourself." Token distribution has lost its soul. What once was a tool for empowering ecosystems is now a blade for bleeding them dry. Most new projects offer bait. This is a liquidity ambush. And with several TGEs around the corner, I don't know how to feel. --- 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 You’ve seen the pitch: “Stake here, earn more, unlock potential.” Under that surface, the strategy is cold-blooded. Token distribution designed around short-term yield is a silent war strategy. They are not mechanisms to build user love or product feedback loops. They’re engineered drains, parasitic models that extract value from other ecosystems, then collapse inward when the reward fumes vanish. What’s worse? Many teams have no intention of holding attention once the TVL arrives. --- 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐡 𝐊𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐭 (𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟑–𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒) a. Blast (2023) → Mechanism: Users locked ETH for weeks with no L2 product, just points. → Vampire Move: A vault with no key. Yield came from outsourced DeFi protocols such as Lido and Maker, not Blast itself. It was spun as “future upside.” → Heist Factor: $500M+ locked without utility. → Fallout: No protocol loyalty. Capital was mercenary. Most yield farmers pulled out post-airdrop. Alive or Dead? Alive, but limping. b. Starknet (2024)- Loyalty Doesn’t Pay → Mechanism: Starknet launched a massive airdrop but ended up ignoring core dApp users. → Vampire Move: The airdrop was a marketing blast, hoping for narrative buy-in. → Heist Factor: STRK became a liquidity event. → Fallout: Token dumped hard. dApp developers distanced themselves from the L2. Alive or Dead? Alive. Tech is solid, but the distribution strategy affected their legitimacy. If composability doesn't match community repair, expect fragmentation. --- 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐬𝐲𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐬𝐮𝐜𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 Vampire incentives thrive on urgency and illusion. ‣‣ Hype emissions like they’re rare, ‣‣ Promise future access while delivering nothing today, ‣‣ Target rival TVL, not rival innovation... These designs never account for Retention, Conversion, and Affection. --- 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝’𝐯𝐞 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐝 Here are suggestions that might fix the playbook: → Progressive Commitment: Reward long-term behavior. Deposit amounts matter, but time-in-market and governance. → Negative Flow Filtering: Penalize short-term mercenaries. Retroactive slashing of rewards for wallets that exit within 7 days might work. → Recursive Loyalty: Create multipliers for users who return and continue to contribute. The goal is to enable social alignment. The best incentive is a product that users want to stay for. --- Liquidity that runs at the sight of blood was never yours to begin with. If the tokenomics is not building loyalty loops, it is not a growing protocol. But how would you know?
