I'm seeing a pretty real exhaustion from a fair share of talented crypto founders right now. Some reasons I think this is happening:
a) On-chain users / markets still aren't meaningfully scaling. There is no meaningful user growth, and there is no meaningful increase in on-chain liquidity outside of prices going up/down & balls of money rotating around chasing the highest yield or pumping token bags.
b) The main driver of activity continues to be memes / gambling. This is fine for crypto to facilitate, but there's quite a lot of founders that want their work to serve different pursuits. Unfortunately, attempts to serve different markets are getting punished by investors (no funding), users (there are too few), and regulations (most practical real-world integration is basically illegal).
c) The crypto space continues to be extremely racist/homophobic/bigoted in basically every way. It's a massive branding problem that's turning off founders and making the average person on the street cringe whenever they think of this industry.
d) Any meaningful UX improvement ends up adding a ton of centralization, which minimizes the reasons to build on a decentralized ledger.
e) There's way too many duplicate chains, duplicate wallets, duplicate apps, fragmented liquidity, and technical knowledge required to traverse crypto. With incentives accelerating and exacerbating this problem
f) The markets where crypto really matters are still super small ($), which doesn't look good to investors/users/employees from a numbers standpoint. This incentivizes builders to stick to serving wealthy users that have little need for the underlying technology and just want to speculate and get outsized returns.
Some things I've gathered and wanted to share! I think almost all of this is extremely valid concerns but don't see an incentive framework to change that.
Crypto's a dangerous world, fraught with scams, frauds, and unscrupulous characters.

The word "community" is thrown around a lot in crypto. Too many founders misunderstand what it means.
Hype is not community. You can build a big brand and still not have a community.
Because community is not what you give to your users. It's what your users give to each other.

By this I mean wallets with associated intelligent agents to take care of transactions that are too boring (eg, paying for car parking) or too baffling (eg, deciding whether to put spare money into a tax-efficient cash savings account or one based on equities) for most of us to deal with. »

JOIN is a complete ecosystem for DeFi and TradFi investments with yield strategies and stocks, integrated with an IBAN, an on/off ramp, all within a single application.
You know how we always talk about onboarding a billion new users in web3 ? Well, with AI protocols popping up, that billion might actually just be AI agents.
An AI will only need a JOIN smart Wallet to handle on/off ramp or trade crypto on every chains without having to deal with gas management. It can access everything the JOIN ecosystem offers to all « human users ».
Already, more than 12% of all secured flows on @gnosischain come from AI agents.
In a recent blog post, @VitalikButerin highlighted the immediately promising use case of AI as an economic actor.
AI agents (you might know them as bots) are becoming increasingly active in DeFi.
It’s getting to the point that many now believe AI agents could become a majority of the crypto user base in the coming years.
Non-custodial Wallets like JOIN provide the essential infrastructure for AI agents to securely manage funds, interact with dapps, etc., all with a high degree of autonomy. AI agents can deploy and perform transactions securely.
Smart wallets like JOIN will play a crucial role in this emerging context of AI agent, as they are the only entities capable of bridging the gap between real life -> web2 —> web3, becoming a payment and validation extension for every website, for gaming, for trading, for IOT, thus paving the way for a market that can be described as colossal.

➤ Yesterday, @paddi_hansen shared an insightful thread, shedding light on recent FUD surrounding non-custodial wallets in the crypto sphere.
Let's delve into the key points:
1️⃣ AMLR Overview: The AMLR is not solely focused on crypto; it's a broader framework addressing anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing.
2️⃣ Scope: It mainly applies to financial institutions, including Crypto-Asset Service Providers (exchanges, brokers, etc.), but excludes hardware/software providers or self-custody wallets without access/control over crypto-assets (like JOIN Smart Wallet).
3️⃣ Regulatory Requirements: CASPs (exchanges, brokers, etc.) regulated under #MiCA must follow KYC/AML procedures, already existing under the current AMLD5.
4️⃣ Prohibitions: CASPs are prohibited from providing anonymous accounts or listing privacy coins, aligning with global business practices.
5️⃣ Impact on Self-Custody Wallets: Measures for transfers between CASPs and self-custody wallets are mandated, but the impact on self-custody wallets and CASPs is minimal.
👉 TLDR: Despite AMLR's imperfections, the FUD regarding non-custodial wallets was largely unfounded.
