I just recently realized that most projects in this industry are just packaging themselves, and no one is thinking about how to make the product last longer.

Flashy interfaces, promises flying everywhere, and failing at critical moments—I've seen this pattern too many times.

Some time ago, I used a payment card product and specifically tested it in the most common scenario—buying something at a pharmacy. Only when using it did I realize that a beautiful interface can't solve fundamental reliability issues. This is the true litmus test for Web3 products.

Really, the payment card projects are just ridiculous. No matter how fancy the UI is, it can't save a failing project. All talk and no action, no one wants to create something truly usable. What happened to reliability? Dare to try it once at a convenience store? This circle survives on stories; products? Forget it. Constant bragging, but users are the true test.

Really, no matter how flashy the UI is, it's useless if it fails at a critical moment.

Basically, no matter how good the UI looks, it can't hide the fact that the product is poor.

Ha, you're so right. We're in the era of hype, and truly usable products are scarce.

Laughing until tears, no matter how flashy the interface is, can't save the embarrassment of that moment at the pharmacy.

ngl, this hits different when you actually test it yourself. ui aesthetics won't heal your portfolio's deeper wounds, mate... the market's telling us something if we're willing to listen

Really, even with a payment card, you can get stuck when buying something. No matter how flashy the interface is, it can't save you.

Really, no matter how flashy the UI is, if it doesn't work when it counts, it's useless.
