Liquidity crunch is real, no sugar-coating that. The market's feeling it across multiple venues right now.

But here's the thing—it's not unfixable. There are paths forward. Better mechanism design, smarter incentive structures, stronger cross-chain bridges, more efficient capital deployment. Projects tackling this head-on are showing results.

The question isn't whether we can solve it. It's whether teams will actually prioritize moving fast enough.

Honestly, the liquidity issue is right there, and there's really no way to pretend not to see it.

Honestly, it all depends on which teams truly dare to take action.

Is that mechanism design really reliable, or is it just another round of hype?

Alright, mechanism design, cross-chain bridging—these all sound great. The key is really who dares to actually place the bet...

The liquidity crisis is obvious to everyone, the key is whether anyone will actually take action.

To be honest, the liquidity issue has been obvious for a long time, and it's a bit late to pay attention now. The key is whether those big teams are willing to truly get involved; just talking nicely is useless.

That's right, the liquidity crisis is indeed front and center, but I am optimistic about those projects that are actually taking action to solve it. The key still comes down to execution speed.

Liquidity crunch is indeed a pitfall, but don't be too pessimistic; this can be handled.

Honestly, the liquidity issue is really hard to bear, but it's much better than the monsters I saw last year.

NGL liquidity issues should have been addressed long ago. It's a bit late to panic now. --- I've heard a lot about mechanism design, but ultimately it depends on who is truly willing to invest heavily to make it happen. --- If cross-chain bridging isn't optimized soon, it really becomes exhausting. --- It's easy to say, but most projects just can't move fast... that's the real problem. --- Having a solution isn't very useful; it all depends on execution. --- Capital allocation efficiency... sounds great in theory, but what about in practice?
