When conviction drives results, attention becomes real traction—this is actually how the market works. The fact that hype cycles keep dominating the top trending topics says a lot about where we are.

Monad had an iron grip on community mindshare for quite some time, but the landscape is shifting. Now it's the killer apps that are starting to command the conversation and pull focus. That's the real tell of where the next wave of momentum lives.

I really got caught off guard during the monad boom. Now that I see killer apps gaining momentum, I'm not that excited anymore. NGL

Speaking of Monad, they really understood the market psychology back then. Now that the trend has shifted, no one is paying attention anymore.

After watching the hype around Monad for a while, someone finally mentioned it. Only projects with real product strength can last long; just hype and concepts will eventually fade.

You're right, only true conviction can turn into traction; hype is ultimately just fleeting. The buzz around Monad should indeed fade now. The ones to watch are those real killer apps that can be implemented, as they will be the main players in the next cycle.
