A buy and burn would not necessarily be limited to Boba’s network, meaning tokens could be bought off of a CeX. Not to mention that if you buy from one spot, you pay more than what you might normally need to for an asset.
The PVC approach is limited to the protocol. Additionally, Dune shows ETH Dune Analytics deposits declining and transactions going down. The friction BOBA is experiencing right now with regard to onboarding is that the process is too expensive and they do not manage liquidity at the protocol level properly. A PCV will not solve that problem, at all. They shipped a Ford Pinto and needed a BMW…
Now, I can see a PCV being adopted if, and only if, Boba launched a DeX like Synapse has for bridging purposes. Right now folks provide liquidity to the gateway and get one of the worst ROIs around and Boba is not doing anything to address that publicly, at all. A DeX, which we have been promised for ages, it seems, by Boba would be great since it actually helps solve some real problems facing the network with regard to liquidity and usage… Give traders a discount for holding Boba and trading… Of course, we will not get this since it is too obvious.
Lastly, even if they launched a PCV exchange for Boba Tuesday, I’d still be for buy and burn until we got staking since this proposal is a short term thing, the way way I read it and I do not see a massive amount of Boba being burned… if you look at actual network usage.
