Snapped this after interviewing @realyanxin for my Professionally Curious 🧠: 100 Most Insightful Founders podcast. Hot take 🌶️: We’ve been building Crypto for over 10 years (10 years is a lifetime in any other industry but it feels like all we did was rotating from Ethereum to Solana)—we need to overcome our crypto-native biases and American biases and incorporate use cases in the majority of countries (i.e. middle-income)—ID, credit scores, UBI rails—under the mission of a borderless global digital nation. At SOON, we’ve built high-performance infra - but it’s only a means to an end—the goal has ALWAYS BEEN user adoption. Every successful infra project shares one commonality: the line is blurred between an infra and an app. That’s why we’ve launched our first-party copy-trading app at $SOON’s TGE, to lower the barrier to web2 onboarding. So much to learn from @ethsign—how they align community and mission. True digital network-state energy. In Crypto, we often say we’re here to build fast, yes, but let’s also build to last.
