The gap keeps widening. While most DeFi projects are only now experimenting with revenue-sharing mechanisms, one protocol has already mastered the ve-tokenomics playbook. The difference? Early movers who got the model right don't just participate in trends—they define them. Their approach to incentivizing long-term token holders and aligning governance rewards with protocol revenue isn't just ahead; it's operating on a different timeline altogether. As the space matures, this structural advantage compounds. Projects jumping in now are essentially playing catch-up with a framework that's been battle-tested for years.

ve-tokenomics has been understood for a long time; latecomers can only watch in vain
---
First-mover advantage in DeFi is the key, don’t talk about profit sharing
---
Wait, isn’t this just the curve finance model?
---
The difficulty in breaking the deadlock lies here; innovative models are right there, copying them doesn’t feel good
---
Early layout has already secured the win; entering now is a bit late, huh
---
I like the idea of different timelines; it truly is a two-dimensional competition
---
Structural advantages stacking? This is about crushing the rhythm
---
Years of practical testing show that this barrier is really quite thick
---
How long does it take for latecomers to catch up, five years? Ten years?
---
The ve mechanism should have become standard by now; projects still in trial and error really need to reflect

Damn, this gap really can't be closed. Early birds are early birds; latecomers can only eat dust.

ve-tokenomics this gameplay definitely secures a position, early entrants truly have an advantage

ve-tokenomics has been played out long ago. Do you still want to turn things around by entering now? The timeline is way off.

That's why early investors always make money, while latercomers, no matter how hard they try, end up getting beaten.
