FC builders/founders: how do you determine which blockchain/protocol to build your product on?

New ones pop up every day 😵‍💫

I always say: go where the most relevant developers are. For most use cases that's Ethereum or Poly these days.

I can dig it! Devil’s advocate — why would someone purposely choose a new/emerging chain going against the grain?

Mostly for grants or hackathon prizes imo. Or bet on a chain gaining traction later and being early in it, like building main DEX for the emerging chain.

Building and learning Web3 // full-stack dev // ex-@uber

I haven’t yet but this is on my wishlist. So any big one that’s next and I can attend remotely, or it’s not too far to fly-in, I’ll join. As for grants, I’ve participated in Web3 Foundation grants program, great experience.

Love it. Do you have favorite hackathon event or two you’ve participated in?
