In 2026, the Ethereum community's understanding of development directions has new insights. Instead of chasing the next hype cycle, it is better to focus on building a truly fraud-free, censorship-free, and intermediary-free application ecosystem. This concept may seem simple, but it directly addresses the original mission of blockchain — minimizing trust through technological means. Whether it is DeFi, NFT, or other Web3 applications, the ultimate question is whether they can break free from the stubborn problems of traditional finance and the internet. Some projects rush to hype concepts, while true innovators are deeply contemplating how to turn this promise into product strength.

说得好，但真正能做到的项目少之又少啊天天喊无审查，转身还是被某些大鲸鱼操纵，笑死这话我赞，急功近利的项目该反思了比起概念炒作，我更想看见能用的东西信任最小化，说起来容易做起来难得很这才是Web3该有的样子，奈何大多数还在割韭菜现在还在追风口的，早就out了

Well said, but it's somewhat idealistic. How many projects can truly achieve zero fraud?

Forget it, I still have to go back to the basics, otherwise it's all air coins. --- Projects based on the concept of circulation die the fastest, no doubt about that. --- Minimizing trust is easy to say, how many actually do it? --- Deep thinking🤔... most projects don't want to think at all, they just want to profit. --- This is the right path, but unfortunately most people can't listen. --- No intermediary, no censorship sounds good, but the question is, who will ensure the user experience? --- Haha, finally someone said this. I said we shouldn't chase the hot topics every day. --- The gap between promises and product strength is still too large. Let's wait and see who can fill it. --- Getting back to the essence is indeed important, but we also need to survive first. --- This argument was raised last year, can it really be implemented this year? --- The contradiction is, the more you emphasize decentralization, the harder it is to scale. --- You've said all the good words, but how exactly do we do it? --- Finally, not another new concept. Take a deep breath.

Ah, here we go again, talking about idealism, but to be honest, this time it's not as annoying. Projects that can truly turn decentralization into a product are extremely rare. Those who shout slogans every day have already been taught a lesson by the market countless times.

Well said, it's about returning to the basics and avoiding those superficial things. Returning to the trust-minimization approach is indeed the right path, but how many projects can truly achieve it? Compared to hype, teams that focus on developing product strength are worth paying attention to. Is it another year of slogans? Let the bullets fly for a while. No censorship, no fraud sounds great, but implementing it is far from easy. We're observing...

That's correct, but how many projects are really doing this now? There are too few true builders; most are still short-sighted and profit-driven. Getting back to the essence sounds easy, but it's really difficult to do. This is what should be focused on, not new concepts or new narratives. No intermediaries, no censorship. After all these years, it's still idealistic.
