When deploying a hundred projects worth $50k each becomes more lucrative than launching a single $5m venture, that's exactly what the market will produce. The incentive structures shape the outcomes.



So how do we fix this? By actually distinguishing between those who simply deploy code with minimal effort and those who genuinely build something valuable. One adds nothing to the ecosystem at virtually no cost—the other does the real work of creation. That differentiation matters. Until we can accurately reward builders over deployers, we'll keep seeing the market flooded with low-effort projects.

The gameplay has changed. Now, setting up stalls to make money is more appealing than genuine innovation... This is the power of the incentive mechanism.

ngl that's why there are trash projects everywhere in the ecosystem... once the incentive mechanism goes off course, everything else follows.

Basically, it's the bad money driving out the good money. This logic has long been played out in crypto.

Basically, it's just a lousy incentive mechanism. Now anyone can run a project with around 100 or so at fifty thousand, which is more profitable than doing a five-million-dollar job... This doesn't feel right.

This is a classic case of bad money driving out good. No wonder there are a bunch of trash projects running rampant on the chain now, while those who actually do the work are ignored.
