the most generative constraint for me personally has been not having a lot of money really glad I did NOT hit some huge win on memecoins, I've seen a couple people who I see as talented "could build something" types do this and they haven't shipped anything embrace your conditions, capital is a tool. if its available to you, use it. if its not, forget about it. whatever perfect idea you have that requires a ton of capital is probably not so great actually. i might even argue taking the $ away will probably force you to be more realistic and to execute. when I think about funding I think about removing the basic barriers to focusing time and attention on a problem, not racks on racks

making a lot of money tradinq also has the negative effect of making you imagine you are really smart I've felt this a few times because ofc I have made some money trading its awful. nope - you're really not so smart. stop drinking your own cool aid and start reading or something and then start writing

I get what you say. I’ve been trying to build /treeplanting and @yggdraisil and I do think I have good ideas and I’ve tried to execute them for quite long but I honestly need help with the programming aspect of it. And I do feel kinda identified with the hitting some wins, but I consider myself more of an investor.

I agree that pure trading makes you blind to luck, but finding luck consistently takes patience and investor mindset. That said I would really love to keep building yggdraisil, but I do really need help with the building and programming aspect.
