Sadly, CT users are often more important than the builders themselves, here’s why:
- Products don’t thrive without users. So who exactly are these users?
- A lot of people claim they don’t want “farmers,” yet the top projects in the space make a huge portion of their hype, metrics, and even revenue from exactly that, farming protocols and airdrop activity.
- it’s pure hypocrisy. People look down on small farmers who don’t have big bags (because they don’t move the needle much individually), while praising the big-volume farmers who actually drive the numbers.
- Without farmers, how would any project brag about wallet counts, transaction volume, or “active users”?
Even founders actively design marketing campaigns to attract and farm these same users.
- The uncomfortable truth is we’re all farmers, just farming different things. Builders farm users and capital, investors farm narratives, and users farm yields. And we all get salty when our farm doesn’t pay off.
It is for sure, but they are bringing something to the table, what CT users really bring to the table?
Most of them just farm protocols and leave it after they got paid, that's not worth it now
It could work if those people really cared about the apps they are using
