The first few iterations of DeFi have been the digital equivalent of the wild west rife with unsustainable promises. Bull runs created thousand percent APY for governance tokens with no real underlying value whatsoever. It became one big game of musical chairs, and those who came late ended up being crushed.
As the digital assets market develops, however, the discerning investors have already stopped playing this game of inflating profits. Now they demand a complete shift to the concept of "Real Yield."
Recognizing the difference is what determines success and failure of a crypto investment strategy:
Inflating Tokenomics: Creating new asset supply to give the depositors just keeps diluting the asset pool until the pressure of the selling drives the token down to its price point.
Real Yield Protocols: The protocols paying rewards using their revenues from swaps, premiums and ads form a sustainable economic system.
When looking into your Web3 portfolio on platforms like INLEO, ignore all those three-digit percentages and look into cash flows. Financial independence in the decentralized world can be built not by printing more digital money but by acquiring some profit-generating protocol.
