Still debating whether to choose staking for interest or to participate in new token launches for airdrops? That might mean you've missed one of the most interesting innovations in DeFi over the past two years.

Many people have been misled by traditional financial textbooks. They say opportunity cost is unavoidable, and you can't have both fish and bear paws. But in some recent new liquidity staking schemes, this old theory is starting to fail.

The core idea is this: the same BNB asset can serve three functions simultaneously. One part participates in consensus validation to earn staking rewards, another part acts as collateral in DeFi protocols to generate stablecoins and earn trading fees, and at the same time, you can participate in Launchpool to receive airdrops. This is not magic; it’s achieved through mutual recognition between centralized and decentralized ledgers, which directly triples the output efficiency of unit capital.

Traditional assets are like a multifunction remote control that can only press one button. But this system allows you to press three buttons at once, each with its own independent return. From a systemic perspective, this is a small revolution in capital allocation efficiency.

Of course, this multi-layered earning model also introduces new risk dimensions that need to be understood. But if you look at the long-term development direction, assets without this "all-in-one" attribute will indeed become less attractive in yield competition. Someone asked me if this is an overhype, but just look at the speed of DeFi iterations over the past two years — the pace of innovation has far exceeded most people's expectations.
