3Frameworks

Framework

Are incentive mechanisms insufficient?

APY vs. competitive protocols too low?

Our APY: 12% vs. Aave: 8%, Curve: 15%

Gas costs consume 3% of APY on Ethereum mainnet

Token emission schedule not attractive?

40% of supply locked in vesting (unlocks in 24 months)

Governance token distribution heavily weighted to VCs (65%)

Are UX/friction barriers limiting adoption?

Onboarding friction too high?

Users need 4 steps to deposit (connect wallet, approve token, stake, claim)

UI/UX review finds avg. time to first deposit: 8 minutes

Gas costs prohibitive relative to yield?

Minimum profitable deposit: $5K (gas = 0.3% of deposit)

Retail users (<$500) can't participate profitably

Is the addressable market smaller than expected?

Market saturated by established protocols?

8 major competitors (Aave, Curve, Compound) have 89% of DeFi TVL

Category growth: 5% YoY (mature market)

End-user demand declining?

Crypto retail participation down 30% since 2021 peak

Regulatory headwinds reducing whale participation
