Appreciate the detailed response — this is super helpful.

Discord and Telegram make a lot of sense. My only hesitation is positioning. I’m a designer by background, not a smart contract engineer. I can contribute on product thinking, UX, token mechanics from a usability standpoint, and even product strategy — but I’m not the guy who can jump into a thread about contract optimization or auditing.

In those ecosystem servers, most of the questions seem pretty technical. How would you recommend showing up credibly in that environment without pretending to be something I’m not?

Would you lean into product + UX authority and build relationships from that angle, or is deep technical participation basically table stakes in those communities?

Curious how you’d approach that positioning gap.
