no hate but if I’m 35 smth making mini apps I’d re evaluate my life *very seriously*

a/ truly depends what you want out of life. i want gigantic outcomes. 
b/ no mini app is feeding families rn. not from revenue at least. 
c/ you HAVE to graduate beyond the platform risk if you undeniably want to win
d/ people who enjoy building, are post money / have stable $$ coming in from elsewhere should 100% keep doing all little things that give them joy 
e/ there isn't a $100K rev mini app yet. in pure business terms. let alone $1mn/$10mn/$1bn plays. tokens, yes. product wise, no.

"Truly depends on what you want out of life". Damn. 

How do you identify the platform risk for your miniapp

Art lover, crypto enthusiast and gamer. Learning never ends.

If you're building a mini-app, you have the platform risk of having it be solely supported 'here', vs if you're building something that works independently of this ecosystem 🫡

FC can be a great incubator, but you should have a plan that takes you out into the larger ocean 😉

Exactly. But yet we can't always be in control.

The most important ingredient is being able to ship unapologetically. Yes, dependence can prove deadly, so it's wise to have a plan for diverse case scenarios and implement user feedback.

I agree and those would be good ways of addressing & minimizing platform risk

If you're beholden/dependent on a single platform that you don't own or control, you're at the mercy of their pivots

But who gets to define the limits of your mini-app? A builder can adapt the app or integrate it into a larger ecosystem if the demand is up.

We can see some likely samples in payment mini apps, wallet trackers, and board games. Like you said, FC can be a great incubator, but the dream doesn't have to end here :)
