there are 100 days until 2025 and new crypto projects are still using Discord to build and manage their community

"go where your users are" - if those projects want to attract users from last cycle, then discord is their place

discord is a centralized app that can ban users and entire discords

but sure lol

Yeah, but therein lies the problem because there’s a huge trade-off between giving up the capacity for that sort of control in your channel and ensuring that the users aren’t being exploited fund-wise. 

I.e. I’ve banned Lord knows how many accounts and personally basically run forensic work to try and identify bad actors who are socially engineering clients via quite a few different tactics and they make it super believable for some unfortunately…
