Hello @dogemos, thanks for your kind words and questions. IMHO, from technical design and implementation point of view, each proposal has its own pros and cons. However, these proposals could do better by analyzing how the outputs of the solutions (either vouchers or tokens) be used, e.g. what/how the market (for example, lending market or minting stablecoins using staking derivatives as collaterals) will be formed using these outputs, the economic incentives to attract customers to these markets, etc. Once we are clearer with the usage of the outputs and possibilities of success of these markets (for example, minting a new stablecoin faces the challenging of driving adoption of the new stablecoin, not an easy task), then it makes it easier to go back to analyze the potential risks of each proposal especially on the security of Cosmos hub, etc. Once people are clearer of both the economic benefits of staking derivatives and the risks of each proposal, then people will be more excited to drive the development and adoption of staking derivatives. I agree with you that many projects depend on IBC and let’s get IBC out ASAP. We all know DeFi is developed on another chain … IMHO, Cosmos can only win by doing something different. Staking derivatives is a good start! --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.cosmos.network/t/staking-derivatives-economics-research/4113)._
