They're literally dropping tens of thousands of dollars just to get people to relocate.

This isn't charity - it's strategic capital deployment.

When protocols or ecosystems pay this much for migration, they're buying:

→ Liquidity depth

→ Developer talent

→ Network effects

→ Mindshare

The math is simple: if moving 100 devs or whales costs $5M but brings $500M TVL and ecosystem activity, it's a 100x return.

Smart money follows the incentives. Always has, always will.
