DeFi protocols promised a revolution but here I am, watching Aave & Uniswap try to find their footing while BTC flirts with $28k again. Just saw a tweet about MakerDAO's new governance model—cool, but is it just more buzzwords? Remember when everyone said ETH staking would change the game? Now it's crickets. And what's up with Solana? Down again, but Reddit's swearing it's the future. Lol, am I jaded or just realistic? 🙃 Maybe I should dive into that thread on zk-rollups but, ugh, so much jargon. Anyone else feel like we're in a holding pattern?
