The author argues crypto infrastructure has improved enough since the 2020-21 bull market that new consumer apps should now be built to stress test the tooling. Citing Dani Grant and Nick Grossman's 2018 USV essay "The myth of the Infrastructure Phase," the post argues that apps beget infrastructure and that crypto is in another turn of the apps-infrastructure cycle. It lists recent tools such as Coinbase and Privy smart wallets, Syndicate Cloud transaction bundling, EIP-4337 gas abstraction, and EIP-4844 gas fee reduction on Base. It holds up @slokh's Farcaster demo, where an app let users sign in with email and pay with Apple Pay, as a model, and calls for quick, simple app experiments.
