A truly strong ecosystem is never built solely on short-term trading hype. The key lies in whether it can provide "long-term support for content and data"—this is the real moat.

Imagine a scenario without stable distribution and retention mechanisms: community memory is fractured, creator assets have nowhere to settle, and project teams are still being held hostage by a single platform. Such fragility should have been eliminated long ago.

The logic of BitTorrent is exactly the opposite: resources are supplied collectively by more nodes, and the more participants there are, the more stable it becomes. For project teams, this reduces costs and increases efficiency; for the community, it ensures cultural longevity; and for the entire ecosystem, it provides resilience against cycles.

Many people chase hot topics but fail to realize that—capacity to support is the ceiling of the ecosystem. If you believe Web3 is a long-term game, don’t treat content infrastructure as a mere accessory. The closer the next wave of applications is to "content + community data," the greater the revaluation potential of underlying infrastructure. This is not a technical issue; it’s an ecosystem awareness issue.

That's right. If you're still chasing the hype, you really should take a look at this logic.

Exactly right, but right now, many project teams haven't thought through this logic at all and are still relying on hype to survive.

That's right, anyone still promoting short-term rises and falls should wake up. An ecosystem without carrying capacity will eventually collapse.

That's true, but the reality is that most people are still trading short-term hot topics, and no one really cares about these infrastructures. By the time you actually need them, it's already too late.

You're right. Those still speculating on short-term hype should wake up now; infrastructure is the real gold mine. --- The logic behind BitTorrent is indeed brilliant. The more nodes, the more stable it is. This is the path Web3 should take. --- Content carrying capacity determines the ceiling of the ecosystem. It's not a new concept, but very few projects have actually done it right. --- Green leaves? Ha, those who still see infrastructure as just a green leaf are really naive. --- The pain of community memory rupture is too real. I've seen too many projects fail simply because they didn't establish proper retention mechanisms. --- Cognitive issues are just cognitive issues, and they've been spoken out. Most people are still chasing air. --- In the long-term game, it's all about this. Short-term hype is all虚, and in the end, it's still about the底层. --- The phenomenon of creator assets having nowhere to settle needs to change, or the ecosystem will never retain people. --- The space for value revaluation is indeed large, but the prerequisite is truly building the infrastructure, not just talking about it.

That's right. Those still炒短期热度 should really wake up. Sooner or later, they'll pay the price for the lack of infrastructure. Content carrying capacity determines the ceiling; many people haven't truly understood this. The comparison with BitTorrent is quite clever. Decentralized distribution is indeed much more stable than a single platform. The real moat is not being chokepointed by a single platform; community data will always belong to the community.

You're right. Projects that are still relying on hype to sustain themselves will eventually fail. The true moat is the ability to accumulate and retain data.
