> **Visual Context:** The image is a stylized illustration titled "A shelf-space game" by Fintech Foods Co., showing a shopper standing before a grocery shelf stocked with bottles and packages labeled "STABLECOIN," "ETHENA," "RE7," "GAINS/BART," and "Aave."

The image visualizes the post's metaphor: DeFi "vaults" and yield products are competing for limited shelf space (attention and capital) like consumer brands, with slotting fees, hype, and marketing ("shelf-space game") determining winners more than whether the underlying product (risk-adjusted yield) is actually good—mirroring how grocery placement often beats quality.

> "Everyone in DeFi is fighting the Earn Wars. Almost no one is asking if the product is any good.
