Here's a striking reality about fiat currency: every year, inflation quietly erodes 4-5% of its purchasing power. Meanwhile, the broader economy? It's expanding by just 2% annually. The math doesn't add up. You're losing ground faster than the system is growing. This structural imbalance is exactly why investors and savers are reconsidering where their wealth actually belongs—seeking alternatives that don't depreciate by design. It's not just about returns anymore; it's about preservation.

From the data performance perspective, the 4-5% inflation rate vs 2% economic growth rate is essentially an incompatible incentive proposition — a perfect illustration of why we need to get on the chain quickly.
It is worth noting that, from the perspective of token economics in the white paper, this loss of purchasing power is fundamentally a governance failure issue, which can be fully corrected through the transparent mechanisms of a DAO.
Let's quote Vitalik's view: centralized systems are inherently destroying your assets, so what are we doing? What are we waiting for?
If this data assumption holds, we need to migrate assets onto the chain quickly.
The Sui Red Church Chain is finished, and if this continues, there’s really no hope.

Damn, the more I think about it, the more hopeless I feel. Money just depreciates if left idle.

Here we go again, this set of rhetoric... Fiat currency depreciates by 4-5%, the economy only grows by 2%. I've already calculated this. To be honest, I should have gone all in long ago. Those still hesitating now are just retail investors with a bearish mindset. Believing in the bottom, holding steady—there's a chance to break even in this bull market.

Tired of the same old story about fiat currency devaluation, the real issue is that most people don't have any assets to protect.
