Hi Luca,
As you are well aware, @AbstractChain is currently facing a serious challenge.
It has been nearly 87 weeks since the Abstract Portal journey began. Loyal early users like myself, who have been here since the very first week, have already spent a significant amount of money participating in and supporting the Abstract ecosystem.
But my concern is not simply whether those costs will ever be sufficiently rewarded.
The deeper problem is the Abstract team itself — and, more specifically, the lack of communication.
For nearly a year, a community that has repeatedly asked for transparency and communication has received very little meaningful information.
Even the few team members who once regularly shared updates about what was happening within Abstract stopped posting about it on X months ago.
Now, there are almost no meaningful updates at all.
I am more than willing to spend money within the ecosystem if I believe that my participation is contributing to Abstract's development and long-term growth.
But right now, it increasingly feels like pouring water into a bottomless pit.
Many users appear to have already left, and the ecosystem has become increasingly dependent on a small number of successful games. And no one knows how long those games will ultimately remain on Abstract.
So I would like to make one suggestion.
Please reconsider how the Abstract team is structured, how team members are selected, and how responsibilities are assigned.
To overcome the problems Abstract is facing today, I believe substantial restructuring is necessary.
A single major update will not be enough.
Abstract needs to evolve into something fundamentally different from what it is today.
I first started hearing about Project Quantum more than a year ago, yet even now, almost nobody in the community seems to know what it actually is or where it stands.
And honestly, that alone would be fine.
The bigger issue is that if Abstract truly wants to become a consumer chain, it needs to serve a much broader range of Web3 users and their needs.
Games alone are not enough.
Abstract needs serious infrastructure and applications — whether that means a competitive perp DEX, prediction markets, major DeFi platforms, or other products capable of attracting entirely new groups of users and capital.
And to attract those projects, I believe the team itself — its structure, communication, priorities, and execution — must change first.
It is genuinely disappointing and painful to see a team lose the trust of some of its most loyal community members to this extent.
Despite all of this, I am still here.
I am still actively using Abstract, participating in its ecosystem, and hoping for its success.
I sincerely hope Abstract can overcome its current situation and become the chain that many of us believed it could be from the beginning.
@WatcherGuru Capital gains tax shouldn't exist.
I risk my money. I build the business. I make the investment. I do the work. I take the risk.
So why the hell should the government take a cut of my success?
They risk nothing. They create nothing. They just take.
