Staking is a trap for most tokens, the team will lock your tokens and will keep diluting you until the value become valueless, I made this mistake before and won't do it again, as more tokens are released to the market, people will take it and dump them immediately on the market and the price will be suppressed, some tokens have good tokenomics to protect token holders but most of these projects have a very bad designed tokenomics, I remember stupidly buying PathDAO tokenduring IDO and staked it after the IDO, the price never went above the listing price since day one because the inflation was so high and people keep harvesting these tokens and dump them immediately on the market.
I understand that you've had a negative experience with staking tokens and have concerns about tokenomics in many projects. It's important to note that the cryptocurrency and blockchain space is still relatively new and evolving. While there have been cases of projects with poorly designed tokenomics or teams that have acted in a way that negatively impacts token holders, it's not a universal truth that all staking is a trap or that all token projects have bad tokenomics.
Tokenomics refers to the economics of a token, including factors like supply, demand, inflation, deflation, and distribution mechanisms. Well-designed tokenomics can provide incentives for token holders and encourage participation in a project's ecosystem
