Build > Create Value. Gm to my 20 active followers, let’s win🥂

Wait, the names y’all are using on here, do they actually have meaning ? Cause w*f Is “ThetopguyChiinweb3.0” Like ???

Dear founders, Build a product before launching a token. Thanks for your attention to this matter!

I’ve taken enough lessons, this month I’m taking results. Late GM & Happy new month to all the grinders out there. Let’s win this month 🥂

People: You don’t understand the value of time. Meanwhile, this is the kind of time I understand 📈 Can you relate?

Treat every farm like a mini business: follow the money check the incentives and ask whether rewards would existt if emissions stopped tomorrow. Learn that and you’ll avoid most of the traps in DeFi. Follow me @Ebestcrypt for more breakdown like this.

→ Is there a real use case that creates ongoing demand? If you can’t answer these fast, don’t farm. Tbh, Farming is not a game of chasing the highest percent, it is a business decision.

A short due diligence checklist before you farm: → Who funds the rewards (treasury or mint)? → Show me protocol revenue for the last 30–90 days. → What’s the emission schedule and remaining supply unlocks? → Are team/seed tokens locked and transparent?

If token price drops faster than your harvest value increases, you are losing. Don’t just look at token rewards, convert them to stable value and compare net gains after fees and taxes.

Red flags that shows temporary APY: → Emissions schedule front loaded to early users. → No treasury revenue or unclear revenue model. → Team/marketing wallets selling heavily after listing. → Token unlock cliff in the next 3–12 months.

→ Long term sinks for the token (governance fees, required staking for features). If you can trace dollars into a revenue bucket, the APY has a shot at lasting.

Sustainable mechanisms to look for (signs of real yield): → Fees that go to a revenue pool (trading or borrowing fees). → Buyback and burn or redistribution to stakers. → External revenue (e.g., protocol owned liquidity, integrations licensing).

→ Check block explorers for token transfers from team/treasury to farms.

How to check funding sources: → Read the whitepaper’s rewards section, is there a defined revenue stream? → Look at on chain flows: are rewards coming from a treasury or fresh mints? → Inspect the contract for mint functions and emission schedules.

You may be paid thousands of tokens but each one buys less and less. That’s disguised dilution, not profit.

If the protocol cannot point to real cash flows, that APY is just accounting. What emissions really look like: teams mint new tokens, give them to farms, and hope buyers soak them up. Meanwhile supply grows. More supply with the same or falling demand equal to lower price

Start with the basic question nobody asks: Where does the cash come from? There are two answers: revenue (trading fees, interest, liquidations) or emissions (printing tokens). Revenue = real money. Emissions = hope. 🔻

I’ve lost a lot of money this month, and I didn’t loose this money from rug pulls or trading. I lose it slowly by farming fake APY. I watched my token count rise while my portfolio value erodes. This thread shows how those yields are built. Read through 🧵🔻

I checked the mirror, I couldn’t find my self, what does that mean?

Can I get a GM?
