Recently, I revisited the logic of Falcon Finance and the more I looked, the more I realized that bypassing a common pitfall is quite important—many people are eager to label this type of project. Stablecoin? Yield protocol? Investors are repeatedly confused by $FF's K-line chart. But frankly, these labels are just superficial.



The real question is: is the chosen track for the project correct?

The on-chain scene is filled with various projects, but most rely on a single approach to survive. Stablecoin projects fixate on stablecoins, yield protocols only focus on yields, and they stick to their routines. How do these projects die? Market sentiment reverses, funding rates normalize, arbitrage windows disappear—immediately exposing their vulnerabilities. Remember those once-hot liquidity mining projects? Remember protocols that survived through specific arbitrage? They all end the same way.

FF sees through this. It hasn't bet all its chips on a single arbitrage mechanism, a specific fee cycle, or a short-term gameplay. Their approach is different—they focus on one thing: making USDf a tool that is continuously used. Notice I’m not talking about yields, but real use cases. Many people haven't understood this detail.

Think from a different perspective: if USDf is just a high-yield stablecoin, the ceiling is right there. When yields decline, funds will turn and run—I've seen this too many times. But what if USDf plays roles in multiple ecosystems as a settlement medium, an incentive token, or collateral? The story completely changes. It’s no longer sustained solely by APY but driven by actual applications.

Not labeling it is reasonable, but frankly, most people just look at the APY and go for it haha. Wait, does USDf really have that much ecosystem use as a settlement medium? I haven't quite understood this part yet.

It sounds reasonable, but I still think it depends on whether there are real application scenarios to be implemented later. Otherwise, even the best logic is just armchair strategizing.

This approach sounds good, but let's see if FF can really put USDf into use, and not fall into another high-yield trap.

The data shows this logic... feels a bit familiar, but still, we need to observe for a few more months to see if it can survive.

Hey, this time someone finally hit the nail on the head. Most projects are indeed heading down the same dead end. Relying solely on yield farming is long outdated. Just look at how liquidity mining has died out to understand. By the way, if FF can really integrate USDf into multi-chain ecosystems as a settlement tool, that idea is indeed a bit different. Wait, how exactly would it be applied? Is it still in the conceptual stage?

It's the same old story again, sounding like the tales from those dead projects in the last round... Can USDf really serve as a settlement medium? Why hasn't the ecosystem kept up?

Basically, it's about not wanting to be bound by a single logic. Once you understand this, you can indeed avoid pitfalls.

hold up, technically speaking—has anyone actually audited the use case claims here? cause claiming "actual adoption" without showing the on-chain metrics feels like insufficient validation to me. seen too many protocols dressed up this way before they collapse. trust but verify, fr.

Sounds good, but can USDf really establish a foothold in multiple ecosystems? I always feel like I've heard this logic too many times before.
