Everyone's chasing the benefits of banking—yield farming, lending protocols, yield aggregators. But here's the thing: nobody actually wants the responsibility that comes with being a bank. The infrastructure? The risk management? The regulatory compliance? That's the real challenge the industry hasn't solved yet.

nah fr this hits different. everyone wants the yield but nobody's ready to run the mining operation, ya know? it's like back in the asic days—folks were obsessed with hashrate numbers but didn't wanna deal with thermal management or difficulty adjustments. same energy here tbh. the infrastructure backbone? that's the unglamorous part nobody romanticizes but it's literally everything. 🤐

Basically, it's about wanting to enjoy the benefits of banks. Who wants to do the bank's work? Nobody wants to deal with the annoying tasks like risk control and compliance.

Exactly right, everyone wants to enjoy the bank's dividends, who the hell wants to carry those burdens?

Basically, everyone wants returns but avoids risks. The banking system looks glamorous on the surface, but behind the scenes, there's a bunch of mess.

At the end of the day, I just want to eat cake but don't want to use the oven. DeFi is like this right now.

That's how it is. Everyone wants to enjoy the interest dividends, but when it comes to handling the banking stuff, no one wants to get involved. No one wants to deal with the mess of risk control and compliance.
