Totally agree—the shallow vibe right now is because we've let speculation hijack the narrative when it comes to creator coins. IMO, not everything ending in “coin” should adopt the same focus or casino culture as its primary reason to exist.
On web3 in general:
The myth that "rails = automatic living" is the real problem—blockchain just lowers barriers, it doesn't remove the grind or create demand out of thin air.
"Just launch and make it" is delulu; success still requires real fit & effort, not magical solvency.
So for the economics:
The tech gives freer reign over income if you succeed. Finding market fit is the challenge.
BUT
The culture shift we need is seeing these tools as multiple rail types, not just economic ones—relational, expressive, archival—preserving moments of genuine human connection instead of defaulting to monetization.
That's where we evolve!
