Anybody else feel nothing anymore?
Like 2 years ago I would have been euphoric for every new idea or new cryptographic scheme planned for L2 Bitcoin layers. I'd have gone down the rabbit hole for hours.
But now it's just dread. I want new ideas, I want that the best solution mcguffin comes. But it's just not exciting anymore, even when the BTC/USD exchange rate is at all time highs. Anyone else?
I still feel the thrill, friend

there's no such thing as "the best solution." it's "the best solution for my problem." there are always going to be people like super who are constantly thinking about the next thing and, at their core, are innovators. then there will be others who take this idea and continue to run with it, battle testing it, attacking it from many sides, trying to break it, all while improving the UX to see if it actually is a better solution than the existing state-of-the-art. one is not better than the other. both types are needed.
things got a little easier for me when i realized that i can't necessarily be both, and that's okay. choose one and strive to be damn good at it.
