I’m a bit tired of crypto, ngl.
The greed, the useless projects, the BS, the Ponzi schemes, the Goldberg machines. These projects always have easy access to funds and attention. I didn’t join crypto 12 years ago for this.
We have a really powerful technology that could drive change to the World. But unfortunately, the best projects have really bad time convincing people, investors and becoming attractive. If you’re not heavily speculative token-driven project, a DeFi casino or a memecoin… good luck.
Sells more to build for the crypto bubble than for the World. That’s the reality today. And like this, we keep killing crypto utility slowly, even if we think we’re growing.
It’s painful to see the best projects always struggling. 5 replies

Farcaster is incredible tech, probably the best social media protocol out there atm, and an incredible social experiment where many interesting people had and have the opportunity to connect. It’s full of builders, curious, the people that create new trends and move the world. It has its fair share of “Arab Spring” alike moments, in which strangers gathered for first time. Mavericks building new connections and new projects born.
But bsides that Farcaster struggles to onboard the average neighbor or friend. Ofc, the core community (OG users, nerds, builders) will always be excited to experiment, make transactions, and engage deeply. That creates a sense of invencibility.
But the reality is that most people don’t socialize in the same way we do. Assuming they do could hinder Farcaster’s user base growth. They’re in a completely different reality, for the good and the bad.
Breaking out of this echo chamber is needed for Farcaster long-term success. Doesn’t seem is gonna happen soon. 0 reply
