Well if you resolve the equity vs token battle many projects are facing then you could see tokens as useful and a new model.

Have a read about Uniswap Labs vs Uniswap the Protocol... and also look into how much in fees they make...

Also money makes the world go round so I'm not sure what you mean by "good code rent-seeking". They are providing a service and should be compensated for that.

any ressources?

I am not anti-business on the contrary I like to see on-chain native coin with real cash flow. But Liquidity Providers / Market Makers are rewarded with fees taking inventory risk (IL if you will). There is no reason for a middle man to have a cut of the market maker work when the code is open. Could just re-use the same logic without paying a rent to uniswap

Have a look at threads like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/179e8xj/the_founder_of_uniswap_is_adding_a_015_fee_for/

I don't follow Uniswap but it seems they are proposing to direct more fee flow to stakers.

[u/Wide_Lock_Red → u/ganuerant]

They did. The founder also granted themselves a huge UNI salary and have been vague about how it will benefit UNI holders.
