These past two days, I’ve been seeing a bunch of social mining and points-assignment tasks again. Clicking here and clicking there until my eyes ache and my neck feels stiff. I clearly haven’t gotten the returns figured out, but the badges I keep collecting are piling up more and more like the ID card you get from a job… To put it plainly, identity: just because it can be proven on-chain doesn’t mean it’s worth emptying your time for.

Lately, everyone’s been using RWA—and even **U.S. Treasury yields**—to benchmark those “steady” on-chain yield products. But the more I look, the more cautious I feel: at least the real-world logic is clearer. On-chain, though, many things are multi-layered and nested. When you finally peel it back, you realize you’re only providing fuel for liquidity and narratives.

Anyway, before I do any task now, I ask one question first: what can these points be exchanged for later? If they can’t explain it clearly, then forget it—I’d rather spend that energy researching the protocol and be happier.
