More and more developers are entering Web3 entrepreneurship, launching projects with passion—developing tools, building dashboards, deploying bots... The entire founder journey looks exhilarating.



But reality is often harsh:
→ Products lack stickiness
→ Cannot solve real needs
→ Fail to achieve product-market fit, user retention is bleak

I've seen this story too many times.

I want to offer some advice to future builders—before you excitedly start the next project, ask yourself a few questions: What real problem does your product solve? Why would users stay? Without confirmed answers, even the coolest ideas are just a flash in the pan.

It's so heartbreaking. Nine out of ten projects I work on die here. User retention rates are truly bleak, and analyzing data every day is overwhelming. Product-market fit is something I just can't figure out; I just want to launch quickly.

Honestly, building a bunch of useless stuff ended up as a GitHub graveyard.

Thinking about it, most people are just too impatient... Just write the code first and then talk, without really understanding what users truly need.

Another story of "I made it, but no one uses it"🙃 What is there to say about a retention rate of 0?

The reality is, most projects fail at the "no one uses it" stage; just piling up technology is really useless.

The data shows... this wave will cause a lot of projects to fail again, with retention rates decreasing hourly. However, honestly, very few people have asked users why they want to use it.
