Recently, the secondary market has been buzzing about royalties again.

Honestly, everyone just wants "free trading," but creators also don't want to be treated as disposable commodities.
The old approach of impulsively placing orders feels really awkward here: no matter which side you take, it seems like you're just looking for reasons to save money for yourself.

Now I prefer to slow down a bit...
Don't rush to label "royalties = moral coercion / royalties = justice."
Are royalties really written into the contract, or are they voluntarily given by the market?
Who enforces them?
At what point does enforcement become coercive?
This feels a bit like the tearing of boundaries in compliance for privacy coins / mixers—everyone talks about principles, but deep down, they're afraid of being hit back someday.

Anyway, my current approach is:
Less chasing hot topics, more looking at on-chain receipts,
Before buying, ask yourself, "What exactly am I supporting?"
Even if it's a bit slow, it's not a loss.
