Consumer Crypto

i'm going through the "Actionable Gamification" book again, and it’s clear that most onchain consumer apps rely on extrinsic motivations - incentives that don’t last beyond their market cycle

bonding curves, fan tokens, tipping coins, or prediction games, generate attention, but they fail to build real communities, creating only transactional relationships

for users to "stay for the network" the platform must tap into the upper part, being driven by intrinsic motivations

Looking at this framework, crypto projects need to shift focus from lower-octant motivators (rewards, FOMO) to higher ones like purpose and creativity. This could mean emphasizing governance, builder tools, and meaningful social impact over pure tokenomics.
