how do you balance focus vs itch to try something new thats adjacent in the idea maze? 

It's especially tricky & important to be experimental in rapidly growing web3 markets unless you're a founder who believes fundamentally in a single long term direction..

1. Have a North Start metric that doesn't change often
2. Come up with 3 things you can do to impact the metric
3. Re-evaluate roughly every 4-6 weeks

Rarely is there "true" adjacent 

Until you go that path you don't know the hurdles that may come.

To make that jump you truly have to see an "end" in sight...
