Alice and Bob are core members of the ecosystem. The previous Polkadot product roadmap picture was also submitted to the community by him, and it looks like the path is much clearer now. Recently, @alice_und_bob has started researching the growth incentives for DOT again. The following PPT is his sharing, which includes some thoughts on mechanisms linking demand and various parachains/rollups. Whoever collapses first will think first, and whoever presents a solution for execution first. This is not just a dilemma faced by DOT currently; earlier ecosystems that used airdrops for growth also encountered issues such as too little token utility and unsustainable airdrop incentives. Let's take a look at Alice and Bob's plan:
Economic Growth Incentive Plan (EGI):
In this theme, a fundamental paradigm shift is proposed: we should not only incentivize staking but also incentivize protocols that can promote economic growth. (This model is aimed at @Polkadot DOT, but it is applicable to any ecosystem.) How to increase parachain TVL by 25 times👇

@Polkadot is facing many of the issues that exist in various ecosystems: only 2% of DOT is used by protocols built on Polkadot. Why? The protocols have no compelling reason to use DOT. They can directly use their own tokens. Competing with DOT staking APR (12%+) is quite difficult...

Results:
- 54% of DOT is staked at an annual interest rate of 13%
- 45% is idle (what the heck?)
- < 1% is active in the economic sector. Yes, parachains have taken up 2% of DOT, but 1.3% of that is also staked. So, only 0.7% of all DOT is operational funds!
So what’s the solution?
