In the information warfare of the crypto market, the truth is often hard to discern, but if you carefully trace the origins, you can find many loopholes in the rumors.
Recently, the topic of DeFi liquidity management has been particularly hot, especially when certain new protocols suddenly enter the market and demonstrate extraordinary returns, skepticism also floods in. As December arrives, there are indeed several of the most widely circulated misconceptions about Falcon Finance—if you're considering adjusting your crypto asset allocation, these pitfalls are worth understanding in advance.
**Misconception 1: Behind the high returns is a Ponzi scheme**
Many people instinctively react when they see Falcon offering over 25% benchmark returns in the ETH and BNB ecosystems—thinking that it must be a Ponzi scheme.
In reality, that's not the case. Falcon's logic isn't complicated; it doesn't rely on simple liquidity mining but is based on intent-driven cross-chain arbitrage. If traditional DeFi protocols are like vending machines—operating strictly according to preset rules—Falcon is more like an intelligent market monitoring system. It scans the price differences between different Layer 2 and even Layer 3 chains in real-time, automatically capturing fleeting arbitrage opportunities and liquidation incentives. These kinds of returns are not fabricated out of thin air but stem from inefficiencies in the underlying blockchain markets—similar to arbitrage opportunities in the stock market.

Another project with a 25% return. I'm wondering if this time it's truly arbitrage or just another trap.

Cross-chain arbitrage has indeed been demonized; rumors suggest it's a hundred times more complicated than it actually is.

Is it the same old story? Is cross-chain arbitrage really that stable? I'm still a bit unsure.

Cross-chain arbitrage sounds indeed more reliable than simple mining, but can a 25% return... really be sustained in the long term?

Another propaganda article claiming "ultra-high returns are not a Ponzi scheme." Do you really think we, the retail investors, haven't seen the world?
