Interesting discovery: the staking mechanism can actually promote the buy-and-burn cycle of tokens. A seemingly simple mechanism design, yet it can create positive feedback within the token economic model. Staking rewards drive user participation, while the burn mechanism reduces circulating supply; together, they can create sustainable value support. This design approach is reflected in many DeFi ecosystems and is worth a deep understanding.

I've long figured out the cycle of staking and burning; the key still depends on whether the burn ratio can truly drive the price up.

Laughing to death, the nice way to put it is "sustainable value support," but frankly, isn't it just a new trick to harvest the little guys?

actually... the "positive feedback loop" framing here glosses over some pretty critical trust assumptions. like, who's verifying that the burn mechanics are actually functioning as claimed? most projects just... declare tokens burned without cryptographic proof. classic information asymmetry problem tbh

Alright, it's actually just an old inflation hedge strategy—same old wine in a new bottle.

It sounds good, but on-chain data shows that this logic doesn't hold up in a bear market. The real key is the dynamic balance between the burn ratio and staking APY. Once miner fees skyrocket, this model collapses. Backtesting data from the past year shows that this mechanism can last an average of 8 months before failing, but who cares? Anyway, I already went all-in early. Reduced supply ≠ value support. In the end, it still depends on new investors to take over. Don't be fooled by positive feedback.
