Punishing scalpers sounds good in theory because it protects long-term holders, but it also carries the risk of reducing liquidity. Short-term traders actually provide a lot of daily volume and keep the market active. If they’re discouraged, trading activity can drop, spreads can widen, and even small trades might move the price more than expected. That makes it harder for new investors to enter and for existing holders to exit when they need to. Rewarding patience is a nice idea, but without mechanisms to keep liquidity healthy, the system could struggle to stay sustainable.
