Seriously can't wrap my head around this one. So you're telling me a project collects fees in their own native token, then turns around and uses that to pump some random hype coin instead of buying back their own asset? That's the game plan here?

Like, what's the logic? If you believe in your token enough to charge fees with it, shouldn't you be using those fees to strengthen your own ecosystem? Instead they're basically funding someone else's party while their holders watch. Make it make sense.
