I’m trying to avoid cargo-cult advice and document the few patterns that consistently work, especially under worst-case full-white scenes and real-world connector/wire constraints.
I don’t think they’re useless, but most of the hype was.
Stablecoins clearly solved a real cross-border settlement problem, and some public chains found niche but legitimate use cases.
But the majority of crypto projects were still scams or unnecessary. My view is basically: useful at the infrastructure layer, mostly noise at the application layer.
