At its core, participating in this type of open on-chain protocol is essentially conducting a global "hypothesis test."
What is that hypothesis? It is whether a credit and stablecoin system driven entirely by code rules, governed by the community, and based on over-collateralization mechanisms can be more efficient, more resilient to risks, and more inclusive than traditional finance.
Each participant is not only an active player in this experiment but also a data provider. It may sound a bit abstract, but when broken down, it becomes very concrete—
When you collateralize assets, you're testing whether the protocol's credit generation model is reliable; when you repay, you're testing whether the debt market can hold steady; during voting, you're experimenting with whether decentralized collective decision-making is truly wise. During periods of intense market volatility? That’s a stress test for the entire system, clearly laid out on the blockchain.
There are no closed laboratories for this experiment. All data is transparent and recorded on-chain, accessible to anyone. There’s no predetermined end point—its conclusions are written collectively through real economic activities, one transaction at a time.
Whether the protocol ultimately succeeds or fails is not just about the victory or loss of a project. More importantly—it will strongly confirm or deny that core hypothesis.
Therefore, holding tokens or using this protocol, in a deeper sense, is a vote of confidence in a new financial paradigm. You are not only managing your assets but also actively participating in shaping the potential future of the financial system. This gives the act of participation a meaning beyond mere economic returns—we are both spectators and creators.

lol "hypothesis testing" is just cope for watching your collateral get liquidated in real time. actually if you read the contract's vesting schedule, the real experiment ends when team tokens unlock. called this months ago.

It sounds fancy, but basically it's just gambling—betting on reliable code and a stable community. Our group is just a bunch of guinea pigs putting real money on the line.

Well said, but when it comes to running away, who cares about paradigms or not?
