dYdX just flipped the DeFi playbook

While others print tokens to farm usage…

@dYdX is spending real fees to buy back $DYDX — and then staking it.

No inflation. No mercenaries. Just protocol usage.

Here’s the loop in motion:
‣ $1.87M in actual trading fees
‣ XXXXXXX $DYDX bought from the market
‣ XXX% staked to validators
‣ Circulating supply shrinking

This isn’t airdrop season — it’s ownership alignment.

Stay sharp. Stay liquid. Stay $DYDX
