In your view, where would the money being paid out (to earners) come from?

Investing @variant, writing at https://backoftheenvelope.substack.com/

For BTC, ETH, and every other crypto network there are tokens distributed out to earners for work. The tokens are initially worth ~0. In some cases, belief increases and value increases and others belief decreases and value stays at ~0.

This is how any x-to-earn system works.

10% transaction fees & steep bonding curves are somewhat off. Why not focus on growing the pie, onboarding many more people to play games with us with fair transaction fees (1-3%) which likely translate with more users and additional activity/volume in more revenues ?!

Some fee taking from speculators is a solid business model. You can tap into real (Eth staking) with idle sitting assets as seen in lotteries. Generating returns with other idle sitting assets is possible too but I prefer "normal business models" like subs, pay for premium, etc.
