  1. Comparison Examples

Zero-Sum Game vs. Mutual Benefit

GMX and Similar Futures Platforms:

  • Operate on a zero-sum model

  • For one trader to profit, another must lose

  • Can lead to adversarial dynamics within the platform

MortgageFi:

  • Not a zero-sum game

  • Borrowers can profit from asset appreciation without direct counterparties losing

  • Lenders earn yield from loan repayments

  • Creates a more collaborative ecosystem
