itt: people who live so deeply in crypto that they don't realize even the "easiest" apps are delusionally filled with made-up words normal people scream and run from. https://twitter.com/spencernoon/status/1250133862157553665
To be clear I'm not bashing on these apps bc this is a hard, hard problem. But you can compare something to existing crypto apps and look brilliant while still being a confusing shitstorm compared to a good, non-crypto app.

Imagine you don't know anything about crypto. These are all made up words.

TokenSets
If you are a crypto person who also has financial markets / trading background, youre fucked.
They nail the value prop though. Even a non-trader, non-crypto-head gets this. (#3)
But also, WTF IS A SET?! Oh theyre tokens. WAIT WTF IS A TOKEN?

Time out. If you're building an app like TokenSets, it's not a bad idea to target people who already have crypto. You can expand your market to random people on the street. It's hard to iterate on your actual product if you spend 2yrs trying to get people past the homepage.
