After reviewing the materials on Superform and Rails, I find it quite worthwhile to discuss them together. The two projects indeed share many similarities in their approach.
Recently, during my整理, I discovered an interesting point—while everyone in the DeFi market seems to be competing over APY, incentives, and various new strategies, the real issue is actually hidden quite deeply. The funds are not truly lacking in returns, but in that "controllable execution path." In simple terms, it's not that people don't want to move their money, but that they are afraid to do so.
This phenomenon was particularly evident in a stablecoin product launched by a major exchange some time ago—offering a 15% APR, which seems quite high, yet many funds did not flow in on a large scale. This precisely illustrates that in the DeFi ecosystem, safety, transparency, and predictable risk control mechanisms are sometimes more attractive to capital than just the raw return numbers.

Can't even move the money, this saying is too heartbreaking ✓

Not daring to move the money—this insight really hits the mark. No one wants 15% APR, what does that say? It indicates that the market has long seen through the illusion of yield rates.

Basically, it's a trust issue. No matter how high the APY is, it can't save poor risk control.

That hurts. Focusing solely on yield doesn't really make sense; the key is to make the money feel confident to move.
