weird thing about building in web3 is that you get a lot of traders pretending to be users. users care about what you're building. traders work hard to pretend that they care, because doing that looks bullish in your telegram. 

when they have an open position, they will act as if what you're building is the most important thing they've ever heard about. obsessed fanatics. as soon as your token's price stagnates, or they took profit, they instantly disappear.

the problem with traders larping as users is that it's a botched signal for the founder/builder. 

you read the silicon valley product canon and learned that the most important thing is to listen to users. but traders will tell you that to make them happy, you have to spend all of your money and energy to create a short-term pump of your token (so that they can exit your token and your telegram). 

if you mistake traders of your coin for users of your product, you might actually listen to them and make such terrible decisions.

find users who trade *their time and money* for *using your product*

Just launch a new clanker already and vault supply so you don’t have to continuously whine about how everyone hates you for dumping CLANKFUN behind their backs
