If we are going to do it, do it. LFG. Cut the reward rate and do it quickly--don't drag it out over an agonizingly long 4 weeks. Rationale: the market is flooded with forks that offer exorbitant reward rates and operate on fast, low cost blockchains. How do you compete with forks that offer 1 billion APY and gas costs of 0.3 cents? Do you offer 2 billion APY and 0.2 cents? No! To win in a battle for market share with an ever-growing number of competitors (imitators, perhaps, but still competitors) you emphasize your strengths.
OUR STRENGTH: You invest for one reason: INCOME GENERATION. You choose to buy OHM because you want PEACE OF MIND. That's it. So you can sleep at night. Olympus was first to market. Zeus created this brilliant economic model that our team continues to improve. MeTooDAO and GetRichQuickDAO can only attract capital by having higher APY's or cooler memes or locating on the next lightly traveled ultra-hip block chain.
So JUST DO IT. Make OHM the responsible reserve currency option. Don't try to cater to high-APY junkie-lust. Instead, offer people a RESPONSIBLE CHOICE: 1000 APY. A HIGH but SUSTAINABLE RETURN. Our runway? As far as the eye can see. Olympus doesn't need all the business--we just need to mark OUR territory and defend it with reliability, fee generation, and market share dominance. In short: BE THE BEST, FUCK THE REST.
