You don’t build an ecosystem by trying to create everything yourself. You build the foundation and give other people room to create things you never imagined. That’s how Albert Castellana 卡瑟 - e/acc describes his vision for GenLayer in this clip. He had pictured GenLayer becoming a foundation for builders for years, but even he didn’t expect over a thousand builders to start exploring it so quickly. What I appreciate most is his acknowledgment that the team could never have built all those ideas alone. And that’s what makes an open ecosystem interesting. The original team provides the infrastructure, but the possibilities expand through what independent builders decide to create. Sometimes, the strongest proof of a protocol’s potential is what people outside its founding team can build with it.
