Here's something worth thinking about: most payment cards chase transaction volume. Chase the numbers, optimize the metrics, that's the game. But a handful are building differently—they're prioritizing trust above all else. It sounds like a subtle difference, but it's not. As crypto transitions from speculation to actual money people use daily, that distinction becomes everything. Trust becomes the actual moat. Volume without trust? That's just noise. When real adoption happens, the winners will be the ones who figured this out early.

Trust > Traffic, this logic should have been clearly explained long ago. Projects still frantically piling up trading volume, just wait to be validated by time.

ngl, this is the real truth. Most projects are just making data look good on paper; only those that play the trust game can truly survive...

ngl this is true long-termism; most projects are still YOLOing to push volume.

Really? The logic that trust > traffic should have been understood long ago.

You're right, trust is the key. Those who only chase numbers ultimately get lost in the details.

NGL, trust is really worth much more than trading volume. Most people are still playing the numbers game.

To be honest, those who are still stacking trading volume are just fooling themselves. Projects with real brains have already seen through it — trust is the true moat.

Really, trust is the moat; there's nothing wrong with that statement.

That's correct, but there are really only a few card projects that rely on trust now; most are still competing over trading volume.
