CT drastically underestimates how hard it is to be an honest builder in this space. There are endless expectations, you can never make everyone happy (even though you want to), and you're always one bad decision away from your project dying. On top of this, you'll always deal with FUD from someone that wants to see you fail, even if you build your project honestly and earnestly. You're fighting a war that can never be truly won. At the same time, there are many instances where you'll see "less-ethical" teams/projects take shortcuts or do something blatantly wrong and still get rewarded for it. I've talked to so many crypto founders over the years who ask themselves why they even bother trying. The reality is the crypto space hasn't rewarded morals up to this point (for better or worse). Obviously, the end reward for project founders can be lucrative, but statistically it's not a high likelihood. Most founders will spend years of their lives dealing with a ton of stress and end up winding down their projects. It's an extremely tough industry that moves on quickly. My point here is that I commend everyone in this space that tries to build projects "the right way". It's not easy to do and takes a ton of perseverance. You have my respect.
