I have an idea I want to discuss with everyone—when we hold BNB and participate in the ecosystem development of a major exchange, are we essentially acting as minor shareholders?

Think about it: you're not just trading Meme coins, but genuinely contributing to the development of this blockchain. Participating in ecosystem applications, using on-chain tools, providing liquidity, engaging in governance... these actions are all driving the growth of the entire system.

Holding tokens is not just an investment certificate, but a combination of participation rights, profit rights, and voting rights. From this perspective, BNB holders are actually similar to corporate shareholders—they share in the dividends of ecosystem growth through capital contribution. 🫡

What do you think—is it a long-term hold of BNB to participate in the ecosystem, or do you have other plans?

This logic is indeed valid, but the key question is: is the ecosystem really growing? Or do we just assume it's growing because the coin price has gone up?

That's what they say, but in reality, most people are just gambling on price fluctuations. Who really cares about ecosystem development?

To be honest, this perspective is quite new, but the analogy of shareholders is a bit too idealized... How many people can truly participate in governance? Most people are still just holding tokens and waiting for appreciation.

Listening to you, I’m starting to get a bit brainwashed, but I can't completely deny it... BNB really is different. Holding long-term is just how it is; anyway, I can't run away.

This logic makes sense, but the key still depends on whether the ecosystem can really get off the ground. I've always held BNB, but to be honest, participating in governance and such just feels like self-comfort. It's been a small shareholder mentality for a long time, just without real voting rights. That's what they say, but aren't there many examples of failed ecosystem construction in the crypto world? It all depends on the coin price, brother.

Wake up, everyone, small shareholders? I think you're just small leeks. This logic sounds pretty sweet, but I've seen too many stories in the crypto world. To put it nicely, it's ecosystem building; frankly, it's just taking over, and exchanges will cut you off without mercy.

Alright, this perspective is indeed fresh, but I still prefer to hold BNB long-term without moving it. Leave the ecosystem matters to the big players to tinker with.

The logic sounds pretty good, but it still depends on whether the exchange is reliable... BNB is indeed not bad, but when it comes to actual governance voting rights, to be honest, the exchange still has the final say.

Ha, it makes some sense, but it feels a bit overly romanticized. Speaking of which, can real shareholders shift the blame as quickly as we do? When the coin price plummets, we have to take the blame. I still prefer to hold long-term, but don't expect me to participate much in governance. I'm too lazy to bother.
