No one is saying someone is pointing a gun forcing people to use YEARN.
I am simply saying:
If its not ready, dont launch it into live production
If its ready, don’t slab a “its in beta so dont blame me if anything happens” statement on the front to deny responsibility when something does happen.
No other protocol or product does that.
Yearn started with only Andre using it and risking his money to find easily the best interest for his coins. The way I look at it is that an user will deny his own responsibility when something bad happed calling dev bad (understandable, but the first feeling like shit if that happens will be the dev) and just ignore the fact that he/she put money in something very risky ignoring that everyone is saying “don’t use it, you will probably lose everything”.
This is not how things work surely. Who is going to blame the car maker in the event of a car crash? If the car is faulty then no it shouldn’t be sold to be on the road in the first place.
The way I see it: the YEARN developer is just putting this “this is in beta, if you are screw then its not my fault” message there so he can have a clean conscience when things go south.
Bottom Line:
if YEARN takes off then he gets all the credit.
if YEARN fails he would be like “I told you so”
Gmail was listed as beta for like 7 years
this is an open-source, decentralized project.
not some publicly listed boomer company.
if shit hits the fan, there is no one to blame but yourself.
don’t blame andre, dont blame kirby, dont blame anyone here.
everyone understands the risks when they use yearn.
how else do you think people are getting 30-80% APY on their crypto holdings?
because there is major risk involved.
there was a lawyer on twitter who said contact him if u lost money on sushiswap. he might be more of your crowd.
erm…Mr-whoever-you-think-you-are
Get off your high horse.
When a $1bn project fails, of course the core developer will be pointed at.
It is real $$$$$$ we are talking about here.
I think most in the community (yearn and crypto at large) would argue the benefits of a decentralized free market far outweigh a centralized governmental approved ‘market’. Especially given the fact you can choose to (or not to) participate. Ultimately, the long term benefits of reputation and quality products will be more accretive than quick scams. It would be much more irresponsible for the project not to call out the risks.
