CRYPTO HAS NO SOUL

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Crypto faces a “missing soul” problem, marked by misaligned priorities between people, products, and narratives that stem from a pervasive lack of genuine care. True culture, and the loyalty it fosters, emerges when projects respect shared history and build on existing legacies rather than invent new myths. Vulnerability and authenticity in human-to-human interactions infuse products with real meaning, bridging divides between diverse subcultures. Absent these deeper connections, crypto innovation remains fragmented and transactional, lacking the enduring bonds that define lasting movements.
