SUMR Tokenomics, January 21 TGE, and the rise of onchain yield 🌞

Hello Summer frens,

It fragments: more protocols, more vault structures, more incentive programs, and more variance in risk/reward construction. For allocators, the bottleneck becomes operational: staying current and safe without becoming full-time yield traders.
By eliminating the friction of fragmentation, Lazy Summer isn't just participating in the yield economy; it is building the infrastructure to power its next phase of exponential growth, and the SUMR token will capture all of that created value, heres how:
