I keep coming back to the same question whenever I watch Babylon participation.
A BTC holder stakes through Babylon's trustless flow, Finality Providers coordinate that security, and a PoS chain consumes it instead of relying only on native token inflation. As more applications build on that chain, security demand can translate into fees, rewards, and stronger network activity across the stack.
The tension is deciding who keeps the lasting value. If most returns stay with BTC capital providers while infrastructure operators collect coordination fees, applications still need enough economic activity to justify paying for Bitcoin-backed security.
When incentives normalize, who actually captures the compounding value: BTC holders, the applications, or the coordination layer?
