There's a very interesting mechanism design idea—incorporating quote commitments in ongoing transactions into the trading volume statistics. What does this change? Users often feel that exiting a trade is a "waste of effort," but from a different perspective, if each interaction counts, then exiting itself becomes a complete part of the trade cycle. This reversal of incentive structure can significantly improve market engagement and liquidity. When trading is no longer a one-way "in and out" process but is quantified as an equal contribution to the market, the overall activity and stickiness of the ecosystem will be greatly enhanced. Such detailed design elements often determine the long-term competitiveness of a platform.

Wow, this idea is pretty clever. Can you still be considered contributing if you exit the trade?

Damn, this mechanism design is really ruthless, even considering withdrawals as contributions...

Hmm, this idea does have some merit. Incorporating exits into trading volume... sounds like it could trick the TVL data.

Oh no, if this design counts as a transaction volume upon exit, then I need to recalculate the value of my "failed" orders.

This mechanism is really awesome, including withdrawals in liquidity. I told you this is the true game theory design.

Can exiting also count as trading volume? That's a pretty crazy idea; I feel like it could trick a lot of people into continuing to play.

This logic is a bit extreme; even quitting counts as trading volume... It's a bit competitive, but it can indeed retain people.

Wait a minute, this logic has some issues. Counting exits as trading volume? Wouldn't that make it even easier to manipulate the data?
