The Node Staking Turmoil: The Black Hole of Funds Under High Yield Promises
In 2021, a certain emerging public chain claimed to be on the "eve of ecological explosion". To attract users to participate in node construction, it launched the "Super Staking Plan": staking tokens could yield high annual returns, the more nodes, the faster the earnings.
The community was buzzing, and many people believed this was an excellent opportunity to "get on board early".
Ah Hao watched countless analysis videos and was persuaded by the well-packaged promotions, investing most of his savings into node staking. At first, the daily earnings were disbursed on time, and he even invited friends to join, confidently stating: "This is an official benefit, it can't go wrong."
However, the good times did not last long.
As the token price continued to decline, the platform suddenly changed the rules, delaying the distribution of earnings, and then suspended withdrawals under the pretext of a "system upgrade". A large number of doubts arose in the community, but the team left only a perfunctory announcement before completely disappearing. The "high yield" of node staking ultimately turned into losses that countless people could not recover.
This incident reminds all investors:
High yield staking is not a safe passive income; it may also be a facade for a Ponzi scheme.
In the crypto world, any project that promises "stability, speed, and no risk" must be approached with caution.
Because truly reliable investments never make you feel too easy from the start.
