What is the overall problem we are trying to solve?
Price Dumping?
Increasing TVL of protocol?
Keeping APY above 100k%?
Boom/bust cycles are signs of a healthy free market.
If tweaked correctly the busts should fuel the next boom i.e. the gold rush wasn't localised and over once all the gold was discovered in one location it was viral.
What fueled the first boom in Olympus? High APY with no lock-ups.
We are all here to make money...we all want to play the gaming console buy at the same time we love the game so much we don't want to break the game...we want it to last forever and be generational.
How do we re-fuel that...without becoming a predictable pump/dump cycle but achieving floating, predictable and stable price?
We need to increase TVL...but we cannot be a ponzi.
I think the predictability is key...and being transparent with the boom/bust cycle narrative.
"Hey guys, if you bond today we can GUARANTEE the following APY runway"
The wallet address is snapshotted and apy guaranteed.
But newcomers are always warned of the boom/bust cycle risks but always herded towards bonding and guaranteed an apy for "at least" a certain epoch based on their time of entering the protocol.
