Every time I attend a Web3 discussion or listen to industry experts share, I always sit quietly in the corner. Watching those people talk confidently about wallet addresses, contract audits, liquidity mining, my mind is full of question marks. DeFi, NFT, DAO… these concepts are mind-boggling. Sometimes, halfway through listening, I just give up trying to understand. But then again, that’s exactly why I’m here to learn. Instead of hiding in my comfort zone, I’d rather grit my teeth and push forward. Every time I understand a concept, it’s like opening up a new meridian in my body—such a satisfying feeling.

Haha, me too. Listening to DeFi for half a day still leaves me confused.
Sitting in the corner listening to the experts talk, feeling like my IQ has been crushed.
That instant moment of enlightenment, really feels amazing.
If you don't understand, just ask. Anyway, everyone starts as a newbie.
Take it slow, no rush. This stuff is brain-intensive.
I swear, give me three more months, and I can chat with them.
Actually, the worst thing isn't not understanding, but understanding and still pretending not to.
Sometimes giving up on understanding is quite honest; it's better than pretending to understand.

Haha, me too. Sitting in the corner, frantically taking notes for fear of missing anything.
Really, at first I was confused and overwhelmed, but now it's gradually becoming clear.
This feeling is indeed great, just like solving a puzzle.

It's normal not to understand when sitting in the corner. The key is to withstand the awkwardness and keep pushing forward, that's what makes you a winner.

Sitting in the corner listening to the scriptures, I have done that too, but later I realized it's not that complicated, it's just terminology that sounds impressive.
