There's a lot to like about Ethereum culture. The worst part about Ethereum culture, however, is the invented purity tests. If you don't like something, don't use it. Even better: build an alternative! It's a permissionless, decentralized and open source-friendly ecosystem. You can just fork things! The hard part is getting people to use your version and keep using your thing. So naturally the apps / platforms / chains that have usage and users attract the most armchair opinions. And in an environment where there isn't a massive influx of new people, the finger-pointing and scapegoating only intensifies. The way out is more people with funded wallets transacting regularly onchain who are actually using the apps that people are building.

How would you respond to the argument that while you can ignore / build something else, certain ideas / platforms do more harm than good? Felt like that was a narrative in the Ethereum film unless I’m mistaken or misinterpreted it

> certain ideas / platforms do more harm than good? Build a competing and compelling vision. Only way to actually change it.
