I’ve already shared most of my thoughts,

but for those involved in Web3 governance, I’d like to point out that so-called “toxic” members (unless their frustration only comes from not being paid for past work) are often the real core community—the people who genuinely care and whom we should be working with. They invest their own time and money into the things they truly care about.

Personally, I’d apply the “toxic” label to a different group: the degens who don’t read any reports, don’t care about transparency, agree with everything, and click “like” in the hope of getting some future benefit.

This is, in my view, a core problem in Web3: there are very few true believers left. Most others—from ordinary participants to founders and even foundations—have slid into degen culture.

Maybe you could write about this: At what point did the degens take over? Where did the Web3 believers go?

Thanks for inspiring and sharing us how to move forward with building in public.

Question: Which criteria you follow when posting about a piece of work that is not yet allowed to go public but it will in the next days/weeks? Sharing a screenshot of the work you are doing (that does not affect the request to be private) or wait until is public to share about it?

Privacy-preserving tips that one should follow?
