2

Shift focus from making products '10x better' to making 'impossible things possible' by using Web3 mechanics to change customer incentives, such as paying users to exercise.

3

Use 'Learn-to-Earn' models as a marketing strategy to incentivize users to complete core product actions, which drives both customer acquisition and long-term retention.
