The decentralised finance club needs to make their core values poster bigger and easier to understand
We’re here in 2023 and they still forget that the core value of “not your keys not your wallet” is the equivalent of putting your cash under your mattress instead of using a bank and the complexity that comes with that is unavoidable.
You can get more people to use a mediocre product/technology by making it easy to use
People will use complex products/technologies if they are useful enough.
But these people can’t make it useful so they keep banging their head against the wall trying to make it more simple.
It is inevitable that they will try the even lazier route of deceiving people into thinking it is simple.

I find it insane that people would expect you to connect your crypto wallet with a website. The levels of trust there are crazy.
Best practices maintaining crypto are keeping it offline, air gapped. Definitely not in the browser.
That's what I find incredible about this community. We're here in 2023 and they still forget that the core value of "not your keys not your wallet" is the equivalent of putting your cash under your mattress instead of using a bank. The complexity that comes with that is unavoidable. It is essential that you know you are in control of an entity that is there or is not there, and no insurance can bring it back because it is fully decentralised.

Don't you know, the best way to make the decentralized wave of the future, new money, money work best is to give third parties access to it and centralize it.
