There may be two aspects that need clarification. First, returning value to the community through buybacks and burns does not necessarily have to be based on profit sharing — directly reducing the total circulating supply can itself enhance the potential future earnings per share, which is the inverse effect of dilution mechanisms. The second point is even more interesting: some major platform tokens have already adjusted their strategies. For example, after December 2021, the price trends of certain leading platform tokens gradually decoupled from their platform profitability, no longer strictly adhering to the profit buyback and burn commitment mechanism. This reflects a shift in market understanding of token value — from a simple discounted cash flow model to a more complex ecosystem value and market sentiment-driven approach. Therefore, when discussing token mechanisms, it’s important to understand these historical turning points.

Haha, sounds nice, but isn't it just the lesson that the leeks only realize after they've been harvested? If you've already decoupled, what does that mean? Promises are just for deception, and stubbornness leads to suffering.

Basically, the platform's tricks have upgraded, and they still haven't recovered from the backstabbing in 2021.

Basically, the platform has started to let loose, and the promised buyback and burn have become a joke. --- Damn, the wave in 2021 was really the dividing line; after that, tokens and profits were already out of control. --- So ultimately, it's still about stories and emotional hype; fundamentals have long ceased to matter. --- Reverse dilution sounds impressive, but how many actually implement it? It's all nonsense. --- Market sentiment-driven is indeed real; just look at who still truly cares about profit data. --- The rhetoric about ecological value is becoming more and more empty; just listen and forget it.

Well said, that's why those projects that initially swore by buyback and burn later quietly changed their tune. --- The wave at the end of 2021 was truly a watershed moment. From then on, token prices had nothing to do with project profitability. --- So ultimately, it's still market sentiment. Fundamentals have long been thrown out of the window. --- That's the core. Many people are still tangled up in buyback mechanisms, not realizing that others have already taken a different approach. --- In plain terms, ecosystem narrative > cash flow. Who still plays with discounted cash flow models nowadays? --- No wonder trading counterparts are so clever; they've long seen through this trick. --- The logic of dilution reverse operation is sound, but the premise is that the token price must hold up.

ngl, the supply elasticity angle here is solid but everyone always misses the velocity trap—just burning tokens doesn't mean holders actually benefit if adoption tanks. seen this movie before with bnb back in the day...

To be honest, I saw through that wave of reversal at the end of 2021. Platform tokens don't really care about any promises; their price fluctuations depend entirely on speculation and sentiment.

Basically, the promises have already been a pipe dream. Now it's all about how good the story is.
