Sometimes I get frustrated with L2s, bridging, terrible wallet UX, even worse multisig UX, subtle differences between EVM chains, gas fees, etc.

But then I think about banking system — also similar issues, but closed source.

The future is bright. Hope we don't screw it up.

This is a cool mindset, future can be so bright in this context.  Our banking system is an absolute mess.  Red tape growing up meant something different to me, Red Tape now just means closed source in my mind, the answers are out there, do we want to fix the problem is the new question!
