Innovation chasing breakthroughs sounds promising on paper, yet here's the catch: unbridled creativity without guardrails risks inflating the bubble further. The crypto and AI sectors have seen this dance before. Ambition matters—genuinely—but so does staying grounded. Backing bold ideas while asking tough questions about sustainability and real utility? That's the balance worth pursuing. Otherwise, we're just blowing more hot air into an already overheated space.

Here comes the same argument of "innovation must have a bottom line" again... It's true, but who in the circle is really listening? Everyone is just rushing forward.

Basically, over the past few years, many so-called "revolutionary innovations" have ended up being tools to harvest retail investors... Balance is really hard.

There's nothing wrong with that. Another round of blowing bubbles, seen it all before.

Well said, this wave indeed has been seen through. Innovation is good, but you can't run blindly with your eyes closed. Over the past few years, crypto has been a textbook-level bubble. Truly valuable projects must stand up to scrutiny; too many people are pretending not to see the importance of sustainability.

That's right, this wave is just the same old story... Creativity is one thing, but without a bottom line, it's just blowing bubbles. We've seen this act before in our circle. What really matters is daring to dream and asking whether we can survive, not just talking big.
