I actually think we don't have enough positivity on here. There's a lot of Farcaster toxic positivity, maybe we have enough of that, but there isn't a ton of *crypto* optimism honestly

"Crypto optimism" sounds weird though -- it's like "semiconductor optimism". Yes, I'm optimistic about semi, but the stronger signal is using a smartphone or LLM tools

I think we break through when there are crypto users who don't wear sentiment about the rails on their sleeves

True, but there is a lot of "crypto pessimism" which in theory should be just as weird? but if its not then I imagine the other side is warranted also

crypto pessimism being pessimism not about the rails but about the use cases/applications

optimism is expressed through usage

you can't express pessimism through usage, so you have to signal with words
