Scaling won't solve problems; it will only amplify them.

Management vulnerabilities, communication flaws, and unclear responsibilities that you didn't notice in the early stages will become fatal flaws once the project enters a period of rapid growth. Many projects in the crypto space fall here.

In a small team, these issues can be compensated for by individual abilities, but when the team doubles in size and interactions become more complex, the temporary solutions from before can no longer hold. By then, trying to change the architecture will be prohibitively expensive, and efficiency will suffer significantly.

The key is to straighten out the organizational structure before things get completely out of control. Clear division of responsibilities, transparent decision-making processes, and efficient cross-departmental collaboration mechanisms—these must be laid a solid foundation before expansion. Trying to catch up after growth accelerates is too late.
