The changes I push for in the products I work on are entirely customer/user-driven. An idea might start from an insight I have based on my own experience but to invest commercial resources I take additional steps to validate sufficient market demand, which mainly involves a lot of talking to existing or potential users, among other forms of market research and validation techniques.
Yeah but this statement
Just stay out of the way of people who choose to focus on improving the tech
sounds like that meme - "I am the expert and I am here to fix Bitcoin..."
Anyways, in the end any "improving the tech" reside on this...
So let's see where it goes.

I think we're talking about two different things... one is about "bitcoin users", who I will gladly listen to feedback from everyone, especially if they are using or could benefit from a product I have built. The other is about "bitcoin activists" and what they choose to focus on. People who want to be "bitcoin adoption" activists and focus on that are great, they are needed. But we shouldn't focus only on that, to the exclusion of continuing to improve bitcoin tech to make bitcoin better money. That is the point I was trying to make there.
So let's see where it goes.
indeed

In Bitcoin world, everybody is an activist... because each one of us have its own agenda.
My open agenda is: fuck the govs and the banks.
