$DEGEN

for simplicity's sake, set degen to 1 usd.

how much [money] would you lock away for 90 days to be able to freely invest (or steal) 900000/ USD during that period?

1 million?
2 million?
10 million?
100 million?

fwiw I think the upper limit is around 10:1, ie I would be willing to lock 10m USD maximum for 90 days to freely invest 900k over a 90 day period (ceteris paribus).

what about you?

once you've arrived at your number, add the following complication:

>you can't freely invest (or steal) the money
>you're expected to use it for specific purposes and not for selfish enrichment

now how much?

i'd still lock up 10m USD to specifically invest (not steal) 900000/ USD but i'd focus on effective investments in the platform and adjacent ecosystems (ie, indirect personal enrichment, not selfish enrichment. grow the pie).

what about you? i assume less risk as specificity rises. now you need to vibe with the mission, which is rarer.

@wake.bsky.social

if the lock mechanism isn’t fully audited then need to factor in the possibility of loss of all deposited funds, changes math

a full and formal audit seems prudent, lack thereof may be a dealbreaker for many

Of course. Let that fact influence your risk assessment as you see fit.
