We interpret the de Sitter swampland conjecture in the thermodynamic point of view. When the number of degrees of freedom is enhanced as the modulus rolls down the potential, the bound on m(Pl) del V / V is equivalent to the condition for the positive temperature phase. The boundary between the positiv- and the negative temperature phases is preferred by the classical system since the entropy density is maximized. The distance conjecture imposes that (quasi-)de Sitter spacetime is entirely in the negative temperature phase and statistically disfavored. By investigating the concave potential, we also justify the bound on m(Pl)(2) del V-2 / V. (C) 2019 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier B.V.
