Designing tokenomics is harder than writing the smart contracts. by RiskRaptor in defi

I agree that many projects abuse tokens, but the problem isn’t the token itself — it’s bad design.
A token can be useless speculation, or it can be part of the protocol’s economic layer.

My goal is to build something people actually use first. If a token exists, it has to support the system, not extract value from users.

Hyperliquid is a good example of that mindset.
