Ngl recently I’ve immediately churned when trying any products that have anything to do with an ERC20 or points

Hmm not sure I understand this. We're in crypto - to pretend that tokens or points are not the single biggest unlock for creating a net new generation of product experiences feels weird to me. I respect your desire to find crypto products that have PMF in the absence of incentives but hasn't been the case so far and probs won't for a long time IMO

It hasn't been the case that crypto products with incentives have found PMF 🤷 It's the biggest unlock in the eyes of people in crypto who have yet to break out of the bubble. It feels weird this is the norm and just feels grifty to me. Building a good product with incentives later (i.e. Rainbow) is different.

I'm not saying they need to have incentives - I'm saying that products that focus on tokens have historically been the most widely used in crypto. Uniswap, Metamask, Coinbase, OpenSea, TopShot the list goes on. Olaf said Bitcoin is the crypto product with the most PMF. I agree we need to break out of the bubble - I disagree that in order to do that we need to pretend tokens don't exist or aren't the category defining asset that makes this new generation of tech valuable relative to whats existed before.

Everything in crypto kind of feels grifty when most are here to make money off eachother but nobody fully realizes that yet. It’s a strange fine line you have to toe.
