Alpha players are accustomed to the cycle of 'completing tasks → receiving airdrops → selling off → looking for the next one', but $LA is an exception.
LA is not a 'task currency' driven by hype, but the 'only fuel' supporting the operation of the cross-chain verification standard network on the Lagrange chain. Its core value lies in building a closed-loop economic system:
1. Essential functions: User behavior proof, project construction verification module, validator operation and maintenance, economic penalty mechanism to ensure accuracy— the entire network relies on $LA to operate.
2. Mode differences: Task currency = interaction → issuance → selling off → hype decline; Lagrange currency = economic system → network verification → project invocation → value-added cycle.
3. Long-term value: After the mainnet goes live, staking demand, invocation payments, and verification standards will form, and $LA will leap from 'rewards' to 'credit assets of on-chain verification economy'. Selling off may miss out on the income growth from node revenues and the dividends brought by rising invocation demand.
Summary: $LA is a functional asset supporting the next generation of on-chain verification infrastructure, rather than a short-term task tool. The choice of whether to view it as a task or to layout infrastructure in advance is in your hands.
Core retention:
* $LA is the 'only fuel'/economic foundation for network operation.
* Comparison between task currency (short-term speculation) and functional verification currency (long-term system reliance).
* The key role of the closed-loop system (validators, invokers, users, incentivizers) and $LA.
* Expectations for value leap after the mainnet goes live (staking, payments, credit assets).
* Selling off may miss future dividends.
* Core choice: task tool vs infrastructure layout. @Lagrange Official #lagrange
