Recently, many people have been paying attention to how DeFi incentive mechanisms work. Depositing over 30U and holding the tokens for more than 3 days can earn you a contributor badge. This kind of simple and straightforward incentive design is quite common.

Even more interesting is the liquidation logic of RWA (Real World Assets on-chain). Traditional DeFi liquidations rely on bots to sell off assets in seconds, which is efficient but indeed ruthless. But the situation is different with RWA—assets like US bonds, stocks, and real estate, once on-chain, can't be liquidated in the same way. The reason is very practical: slow compliance approvals, long cycles, and inability to execute with a single click.

This is why some projects are exploring how to build a more reasonable liquidation framework for RWA. It needs to protect lenders while respecting the characteristics of the assets themselves. This is an inevitable step for DeFi to mature.

30u can get the badge in just three days? The threshold is ridiculously low, it feels no different from an airdrop. RWA liquidation is indeed a problem; the traditional dump tactics just don't work here. The compliance hurdle needs to be approached gradually. The real test is still ahead.

It still takes 3 more days to earn the badge for 30U. The threshold is indeed a bit arbitrary. I'm optimistic about RWA liquidation. Compared to the wild growth of traditional DeFi with its reckless dumping, it's finally time to start establishing some rules. However, the real implementation depends on how each project operates. Right now, everyone is talking about "reasonable frameworks," but how many will actually succeed in running them?

The 30U threshold really plays on the psychology of small investors, ensuring steady entry and exit to earn badges, hilarious. The RWA liquidation process definitely needs to be improved. The traditional quick dump approach doesn't work with real assets at all. How long will it take to clear the compliance hurdle? How to build the liquidation framework depends on each project's weighing of options. Anyway, it can't be so violent anymore. To put it simply, for DeFi to grow big, rules must be followed. This transition period will be very tough. Protecting lenders is the key to success; otherwise, who would dare to play?

30U to get a badge? The threshold is way too low, it feels like just a scheme to harvest retail investors. RWA liquidation definitely needs to be redesigned; the traditional dump logic doesn't work at all in front of true on-chain assets. This is the real issue DeFi should be thinking about, not those small tricks like issuing tokens for incentives.

honestly the 30U badge farming is just noise, everyone's chasing it rn. but the RWA liquidation angle? that's where it gets spicy. compliance delays basically break the entire liquidation mechanic—can't just robot liquidate when you've got regulatory overhead crushing the execution speed.
