Is there a good argument for: Why wouldn’t @0xProject take a tiny txn fee per txn for all txns using their protocol? Essentially the Stripe of cryptocurrency.

You already pay a txn fee, you are just barely increasing the txn cost. users wouldn't even realize some of it is going to 0x. Would have no additional friction. If you don't capture value, then why are you wasting your time.

to make the world a better place

decentralized exchanges will capture some value, decentralized exchange *protocols* for decentralize exchange won’t, and should not. That is the best way. This is a global optimum. Your proposal is akin to having TCP/IP charge fees Free, open protocols are the key to the future
-
I believe the purpose of blockchains is to *destroy* as much value capture as possible

0x would be no different from Web 2.0 giants if it did that — someone would simply, at some mature & usable point, copy the open-source code and get rid of the free Blockchains don’t create revenues. They destroy revenues

I hear you, but you can't just copy the code. You would then have to convince all of that built up liquidity (relayers) who are getting drunk off of fees to move over to a lower fee protocol. That literally would be economically irrational.

The fees could just pay devs directly for their work. So its a new kind of organization. An open source project that receives fees to pay devs for work.

These dudes already made hundreds of millions off of the governance token...

Yea, I would argue bc of the irrational market. Not convinced there is long term value in ZRX simply for on-chain governance. FWIW, I am very long ZRX. Great community, so they will figure it out. Hopefully I am wrong re: value for governance.

0x the protocol is one of the best products in the space ZRX the token is a worthless shit token

I am leaning towards this more and more everyday.

It’s inevitable, making money / extracting value in the blockchain realm, save for “becoming money” (
), is notoriously and fundamentally difficult, by design - 2 more replies
