crypto underestimates the cognitive overload and monetization fatigue that comes with turning everything into a coin or a market

the more financial decisions a user must actively make -> the higher the cognitive burden -> the lower the engagement, satisfaction, and trust

this is well researched across digital apps

The other day someone described a design for a consumer crypto app where the creator, consumer and speculator roles were more separated.  Specifically the consumer and speculator- so like a front end that’s more consumer and a back end that’s more speculative.  I’m intrigued by the idea that maybe we can achieve better creator economics with crypto apps but not cause the issue you describe w the consumer experience 

Feels like an experiment we need to run

yes!!! agree!!

been thinking about this, too. In a way, Zora can work like this because trading can happen on Uniswap separate from app — issue is that it still looks like trading from the app. 

do you recall who described this design? would love to chat with them
