"Even now, this is what I think tradfi is only just now starting to realize- Is just how superior perps are as an instrument to the rest of what the world has used all these years- And I think for us, just really, really getting early into perps... like Gains and GMX... These were the first value-accruing tokens, these were the first tokens that did buybacks, and burns, and distributes... And $GMX had a really great run and that was a good thing, a good performer for us- But it took a long time for people to realize that the tokens that were gonna be tied to these protocols just printed money- And I think that was incredibly obvious to us from the beginning- That the TAM of these protocols was going to be just biblical- But then also the ability to have a token that internalized all this excess trading fees, and potentially liquidations, and all these things, was gonna be astronomical as well..." - @koolkrypto223, in discussion with @DeFi_Dad and @Nomaticcap
