"We need to do better this cycle" hitting different now. Feels less like a battle cry, more like admitting we're about to repeat the same mistakes.

My timeline this month? Last cycle's ponzinomics wearing an AI mask. Same playbook:

Mint → Slop → Roadmap → Exit

Are we really heading into another NFT season?

If we are, I hope it's for builders who shipped something that literally couldn't exist in 2021. Not the same JPEG factory with a new wrapper. Not the same extraction play with better PR. Not "utility" that dies 7 days post-mint.

If this cycle is just 2021 with AI slop layered on top, it's not a season. It's a rerun nobody asked for.

Build something that matters. Don't waste the liquidity window.

What's genuinely new this time vs what's just recycled garbage with better lighting?
