How difficult can coding be? What really stalls us is often not the technical implementation itself. As projects multiply, you realize that writing code is the easiest part. Those things that can run are backed by a thinking framework, an understanding of the market, and ecological judgment—these are the true barriers. Without a crystallized understanding, no matter how much code you write is useless. Many people get stuck here: technology is not the bottleneck, fuzzy cognition is.

Exactly right, code is just a tool; the real ceiling is the cognitive ceiling. I've seen too many technically talented people, but their projects still fail because they never really figured out what to do. --- The concept of cognitive crystallization is brilliant—it's just that many people are only a layer of paper away from that. --- Haha, so I've always said that learning technology is less important than learning mindset, but unfortunately no one believes it. --- That's why many tech giants fail when they start a business; they're used to solving problems with code. --- Web3 is the same; it seems to have a low barrier to entry, but few truly understand the ecosystem logic. --- Indeed, I know several project teams that went from 0 to 1, and they are not the most technically skilled. --- It's so touching, it feels like they're talking about me. I write good code, but I always seem to struggle with understanding the direction.

That hits home; code is just a shell.

Woke up, writing code is really just superficial work; the key is to think things through clearly.

That's right, the more pitfalls you've stepped into, the more you understand; code is really just the surface. --- Cognitive crystallization is indeed the bottleneck for most people; I've also suffered losses myself. --- The technical threshold is actually the lowest; what's difficult is seeing through the market logic. --- That hurts. Many people have hands full of code but haven't figured out what they're actually doing. --- Once the framework is built, everything else is easier to handle; the key is to think it through clearly. --- Agree, the core of whether a project lives or dies has never been the tech stack. --- That's why there are more people writing code, but few who can get things done. --- Without proper understanding, any optimization is futile; I have deep personal experience.

That's so true. It took me so many years to realize this. Code is just a tool to express ideas; the real challenge is understanding the logical framework yourself.

ngl the irony here is watching devs flex their github commits while their tokenomics are literally a exit pump waiting to happen. code's easy, sure—actually reading what's in the contract though? that's where 90% fumble it. seen this pattern play out predictably across like 50+ projects already

It's really heartbreaking and spot on. I've seen quite a few smart programmers who are tech geniuses, but they don't understand how the market works, and they can't even figure out why people want what they create.

That's so true. The technical barrier is really not high; the hard part is figuring out what you want to do.

That hurts so much. I'm the kind of person who types code really quickly, but as soon as I go live, everything crashes.

You're right, after all these years I finally understand that going all-in on writing code really isn't meaningful.
