Let me say I'm confused and not also confused when it comes to a project's goal and objective in this space. Let me try to explain myself so you can understand me better.
If a certain project in DeFi or any ecosystem is being listed today, the devs will say it's basically built around virtual finance or just to make the finance sector better. But at the end of the day, the last thing someone sees is listing it and people buying and selling it. Is the money they made what they will use to build the influence of the main reason it was launched, or what? I asked this question because many new projects I've seen so far, on paper, look good with their aim and objective.
Take $HYPER as an example. According to the whitepaper, it is a permissionless interoperability protocol enabling seamless cross-chain communication, and also it allows developers to build interchain applications without centralized intermediaries. With these, how will they actualize the purpose and not limit it to people trading it?
Not all projects forget their aim. Some work with the white paper to actualize it and keep innovating so it stands the tests of time. For hyperlane with their utilities, ecosystem and even partners rn, I think they'll continue to follow their white paper.
