Persistence is the true test of Web3 entrepreneurship; passion is more valuable than the trend.

【Blockchain Rhythm】A senior executive from a leading exchange recently shared his views on Web3 builders, and his core insights are worth every entrepreneur reflecting upon.

He emphasized that rather than being optimistic about a particular track, he values the entrepreneurial drive itself. Those who are truly passionate about their own ventures are the ones worth supporting in the long term. Look, in recent years, market trends have shifted rapidly—NFTs were hot the year before last, prediction markets took the spotlight last year, and now stablecoins are again the focus. In such an environment, adjusting strategies based on market demand is a good thing, but if you change your approach every three months and completely reverse direction, it basically indicates you’re not truly doing what you love.

He also touched on the essence of entrepreneurship: people’s original intentions for starting a business vary greatly. Some just want to make a quick buck, setting a specific goal—ten million, fifty million, or one hundred million dollars—and once achieved, they withdraw. But the reality is, Web3 entrepreneurship is incredibly challenging. You need real endurance, which is almost like physical labor. It often involves staying up late, working an absurd amount, and experiencing heavy mental and physical stress. Without a true passion for the venture itself, it’s hard to get through the toughest moments.
