Consumer Crypto

"When a social network is programmable, users can do things like: embed new software into the network (frames, cast actions), build automated accounts that do all sorts of things (bots), build new interfaces (clients), and more." — @six

the unlock isn't 'decentralized social' - it's composable social infra that can't be rugged by centralized platforms

Everyone tries building 'decentralized X'
Smart play is building 'programmable X that can't rug builders
Most users don't care about censorship resistance
Most devs have been API rugged
That's the actual GTM for crypto social

protocol provides trust
builders create growth tools on protocol 
creators get reach
users follow creators

protocol stays invisible

Any protocols or even web2 platforms you're thinking about where this cycle happened in this order?

In theory, great. 

In practice, this bootstrapping order means builders before creators before users. 

But why will builders build and creators create before you have meaningful user numbers? 

So then, even if this eventually becomes the GTM strategy, doesn't it still boil down initially to "build something users want" bc users are the hard part of the network?
