"Scarcity" is a word that always resonates with me in life. When I was a child, whenever rare fruits appeared at the market, everyone would flock to them; as I grew older, limited edition sneakers and collectible stamps would always excite people. Scarce things carry an inherent allure.
When I hold TREE, I have this feeling. It's not just because of its astonishing current price, but because I know that what it does is something that very few others in the market are doing. There are many lending protocols, countless DEXs, and fierce competition in the staking arena, but projects like Treehouse that focus on fixed income and strive to become an "interest rate anchor" are almost nonexistent.
This feeling is like suddenly discovering a piece of fertile land that no one has ventured into on an almost fully cultivated terrain. You know that as long as someone is willing to cultivate it deeply, this land will eventually grow towering trees.
So for me, TREE is not just a token; it feels more like a certificate for "participating in scarce opportunities." It makes me feel like I am not blindly chasing after popular tracks, but rather stepping onto a path less traveled ahead of others.
When I see the TVL steadily increasing and the community becoming more vibrant, this feeling intensifies. I think: perhaps in a few years, when everyone realizes the importance of fixed income, $TREE will have transformed from "scarce" to "core." And the fact that I can be part of it is a stroke of luck.
