Crypto didn’t start with incentives 💸
It started with indifference to permission 🛑
Somewhere along the way, that got traded for dApp UX, wrapped L2s, and pre-approved validators.
But protocols aren't here to feel safe.
They're here to work whether people like them or not.
Permissionless isn't a feature.
It's the baseline we forgot to keep defending 🛡️
