Curious about Mayhem's design choices—why wasn't a snowball mechanism integrated into the protocol? There seem to be clear advantages: it could have enabled zero-fee automated market making while simultaneously driving volume growth. The dual benefits are worth considering. A snowball mode feature could be a game-changer for the platform's competitiveness in the DeFi space.

The snowball mechanism sounds enticing, but do they really dare to integrate it? Worried about the complexity explosion.

The snowball mechanism sounds appealing, but Mayhem probably has other considerations... or maybe they didn't think of it at all?

Zero-fee automated market making sounds great, but how does it actually work... didn't the Mayhem team think of that? --- The snowball mechanism has been overused for a long time, how many can really survive? --- Wait, why do we have to use a snowball to compete? It doesn't seem that necessary. --- To put it bluntly, it's still a liquidity issue. Zero fees sound nice, but who will be the market maker? --- Game changer... this term has become too cheap nowadays, haha. --- Mayhem might have other ideas, blindly piling up functions could be disappointing. --- This logic has some issues, the snowball mechanism ≠ automated market making.

The snowball mechanism sounds good, but can it really solve the liquidity problem? It feels like another overhyped concept...

ngl, empirically speaking the snowball mechanism trade-offs probably aren't as clean as they sound. what's the actual gas cost-benefit analysis here? token-weighted voting on this would be chef's kiss but let's see if governance actually addresses it lol

The snowball mechanism sounds good, but can it really achieve zero fees? It feels like there are pitfalls everywhere.
