It depends on who you’re reading: people building actual products and protocols will usually provide measured responses and be able to engage properly with good-faith criticism. See also Vitalik’s Reddit post responding to Moxie’s article.

On the other hand, if you encounter primarily spammers, speculators, and scammers, you’ll just get garbage (similar to anti-blockchain grifters that repeat the same “blockchain is a ponzi pyramid earth-burning scam” garbage repeatedly)

An inverse relationship here. The builders are busy building stuff and don't spend much time on communications. Whereas speculators, all they have is communications, and there are many more speculators than builders, so the incentives look like 99% crap, 1% useful communications.

Props to builders like the OP, Moxie, and Vitalik for building and sharing. And to podcasts like Bankless for creating venues for communication from builders. I'd love to find a "Builders" cryptocurrency podcast.

Look at the ZeroKnowledge podcast; it’s fantastic and has no scammy bullshit
