I am coming from the perspective of a builder who has built many projects now around HL and i dont think they've been complete sh*t (kombat [dot] trade is a HUGE array of features where other projects (funded) focus on only one - it is a full stack trading terminal - 0 users) it is a war of attention and we are basically hands tied - there's no support here. So the only way you can get attention is by inorganic growth. It kinda feels almost hostile towards builders that are not funded if i am honest. I have spoken about this before. infofi [dot] trade is genuinely novel and built on HyperEVM and it will go nowhere unless there's some way to attract a grass roots community and I would 100% rather do that organically than go get some VCs money and then pay a bunch of baddies to take pics of my app while they're sunning on the beach.
I have dedicated now >2 years building here, i have spent fortunes of my own money - I just don't think it's too much to ask to have some way to try and get an organic grass roots community spun up. Just get posts deleted because it mentions something I BUILT in the BUILDERS CHANNEL - is just hostile.
Other ecos have grants. This eco has a gatekept "community" website and lets be honest - the original rug project in this eco gets a front row seat.

i'm gonna come from the perspective of a builder who has neither raised money from VCs or needed any grants
just build stuff. if it's good, people will use it. if it's really good, people will pay to use it. that's it

How do you get attention in the first place? You kinda timed it right, you built a first class product early on, also the HL team were happy to mention smaller projects then in the “teams building” channel. I’ve always been a fan of yours from when we did HX, you were awesome, got on calls and gave us advise. It’s hard is all I am saying. Maybe I need to think more on this. It’s just impossible to go from like 30 x followers to 1k which then opens up some stuff.
If I’m not even allowed to mention my project here then it’s dead in the water.

it took a lot of time and now there are numerous competitors with similar products and deployments
the job isn't finished and the only thing left is to build more stuff

Microcap outcome markets on anything, deployed by anyone is novel. I think it has great potential. It’s not copycat anything.

Good luck all builders. We have good intentions but only the best products will get the attention they deserve.

Good luck sir.
I built an AMM with private trading (before privacy went nuts) and a chain agnostic proof of innocence. Prjx won the attention because of cartoon characters.
I built kombat [.] trade - 13 DEXs, pair / basket trading - AI assistant, tap trading. It launched first. 0 users
Now I’m building small cap prediction markets on any subject, launched by anyone (even directly from x) with a 3 stage promotion path to HIP-4
I am not allowed to mention them here.
None of them have any users.

here's how some of the "premium" products on the HL eco got where they are rn - you go to another chain - you beg for grants, you file all the paper worka nd make all the promises - you take the money, you then abandon the chain - not fulfilling a single promise - you take taht money - you launch a coin - you rug it - then you build on HL - you launch a coin and rug it again
