research crypto will keep wringing its hands about the most elegant solution for infrastructure scaling and accomplish nothing in a five year term aside from a few research papers and conferences
product crypto understands a sufficient technical solution that can be improved and aggressive on-the-ground distribution is vastly more important for user acquisition
my favorite aspect about crypto is that you can talk directly to the market
generally you had to wait until quarterly earnings to directly ask questions of company leadership but here you can dm a founder or tweet a question and get a response in under 24 hours
