Just saw another treasury proposal. The team says they want to do “ecosystem growth,” a seven-figure budget, and the milestone is the “Q3 launch incentive plan”... Sure, okay—at least it’s better than those that only say “continuous building.”

When I look at these, there are only three things I care about: where the money goes, who gets it, and how long it takes before it actually gets verified. I’ve been burned by “grand narratives” before, so now when I see terms like “cross-chain interoperability infrastructure,” my head starts hurting first. Instead, I’d rather have those ugly Gantt charts—even if they get delayed, it’s still better than nothing.

Friends say I’ve got PTSD. Maybe. Anyway, my wallet has been running out of funds lately, so I’ve gotten scared too. Before making big moves, I write a couple lines first—once I’m done, I often don’t feel like acting anymore. It saves me a lot on gas.
