Infrastructure is always more important than you imagine

Here's an interesting comparison: when a tech giant spends only 30 minutes a week thinking about the governance of new planets and city blueprints, people think it's crazy.

But he's not wrong—why allocate so little time?

Because if transportation issues aren't solved, everything else is just empty talk.

It's like the logic in history:

• The Transcontinental Railroad was built first
• California truly became California
• Silicon Valley emerged accordingly

Infrastructure determines the ecosystem. Without an efficient transportation network, all urban planning is just armchair strategizing.

In contrast, nowadays, most people are captivated by flashy imaginations—technology, innovation, disruptive applications. But they overlook a simple fact: the prosperity of any ecosystem is built on the "working layer."

The competition in on-chain ecosystems, exchanges, DeFi—at its core, follows the same logic—who can build more stable and efficient infrastructure, wins.
