NFT communities got ahead of the curve on this one. They were early to recognize the potential and build momentum before mainstream adoption kicked in. That first-mover advantage in community building and ecosystem development really showed what grassroots Web3 movements could achieve.

Yes, that's right. The early community indeed seized the opportunity, and looking back, those decisions still hold some value.

NFT communities are indeed very perceptive, but looking back now, how many are still alive... The so-called first-mover advantage sounds good, but how many actually survive?

NFT communities really knew how to have fun back then, spotting it earlier than anyone else.

First-mover advantage is indeed supported by data. But I'm more concerned about the capital efficiency of that early community — how quickly is the arbitrage space being eroded?

NFT communities are indeed active. They sensed the opportunity early on and started accumulating popularity, so by the time the general public entered, it was already a fait accompli. This first-mover advantage is quite significant, and the power of grassroots movements shouldn't be underestimated.
