I shared some other thoughts about the @vrypan.eth 's hypothesis in this conversation - https://warpcast.com/ehcarpenter/0xdecfc6c5 - and here is an example of what I see as the big problem with the "good content" that gets so much press in this ecosystem. To frame this concern differently, imagine if I went into the Democratic Republic of the Congo and put all my energy into telling people that I wanted “good rocks” (when what I really wanted was cobalt ore.) I’m sure I’d be deluged with people bringing me rocks. Some of their offerings would even have cobalt. Many more would have other substances useful to other people – coal, copper, gold, etc. – but useless to me, a cobalt collector. The majority would be, well. Rocks. If I never clearly defined that a “good rock” (for me) was one that contained X% of cobalt, not only would I never get nearly as much cobalt as was available, I’d probably reduce the flow of other useful substances as well. Look forward to hearing what you think.
