The ~year since writing the below piece has been full of fires for up-and-coming smart contract protocols.
For the quality SC protocols, on the horizon is a period of massive growth, alongside #Ethereum's own scaling journey. https://www.placeholder.vc/blog/2019/10/22/fire-before-growth-the-likely-fate-of-ethereum-killers

Crypto's 2021 will be built upon the back of at least 5 major innovation environments.
Try not to be tribal about it.

But do put your resources into those that align with your values, and if centralized innovation environments get to scale, work with them to better spread the wealth + power (admittedly, my plug for my values 
).
