The one way to the other, you are a multimillionaire.

You move out, you just tell your parents like, I'm retired, you know, I'm 25, I'm retired.

And this is the difference from Hyperliquid, from all the other projects, is that it created millionaires from zero to 100 from day and night.

It created adoption, real adoption.

It's like

Not all these other projects that are like, oh, take some points or take some this and some that.

No, Hyperliquid actually rewarded the users.

And this is one part.

The other part, which I think is very curious, even for me that I come from more traditional kind of background or more investments background, which is no VCs.

You know, for example, for Hyperwave, we didn't fundraise with any VCs for this project.

We just use the community round, just build up community and that's it.

All these other projects out there, they are doing the same thing.

They either have founders money, no VC money or community money.

That's it.

Hyperliquid.

It's all founded by the founders.

You know, no VCs.

You know, this thing is, I think is the difference from the majority of the

boring projects from the last few years, you know, and it's completely different, you know, and I saw that firsthand with Inception.

I was like very dependent on VCs, very dependent on liquid funds, very dependent on big companies that will bring me more institutional capital.
