So I was just talking and then a lot of VCs used to invest in that because thinking that this will become the next Ethereum or this will become the next Solana or whatever.
This has the highest TPS, like transactions per second, whatever, whatever, like everyone trying to compete with the, they all more or less the same or most of them, these L1s, L2s, they only led to more fragmentation.
And then I used to say, but then who's building the app?
We need apps for the end users.
You know, there's no one was building the apps and they're,
Their plan or goal was that we just raise hundreds of millions of dollars as a L1, L2, and then we'll just spend this money on hackathon.
And what I used to see on hackathon used to happen.
It was the same traveling circus.
They would go from one hackathon in one country to the other.
They'll win the prizes.
They'll ditch the project.
They'll start all over again, rinse and repeat.
And then every VC or investor used to think that they'll invest in L1, L2, it will go to the moon, they'll sell it and they'll give return to their LPs, raise another fund and reinvest again, rinse and repeat.
And that it didn't work.
The model had to come to an end.
It broke.
What I'm seeing now is that a lot of the, some of these projects still have healthy treasury because they invested in Bitcoin and ETH and whatever.
So, I mean, they were doing at 20K or 18K or 4K when Bitcoin was at,
So they still have a healthy treasury compared to what they raised.
And now because of AI, you can vibe code or you can build things, build MVPs a lot, lot, lot faster.
