 P2P.me's permissionless expansion model demonstrates earning-focused crypto adoption: community leaders earn 0.2% of their circle's monthly transaction volume, creating direct economic incentive for local coordination. The model achieved $600 daily volume in new markets with sub-$500 launch costs, showing that earning mechanisms can bootstrap real usage without speculation-driven marketing.

+P2P.me's growth stalled in non-volume metrics since mid-2025 despite strong product-market fit on the core on/off-ramp function. Investor thesis acknowledges 'customers don't acquire themselves' and questions whether decentralized approach works, suggesting that even with utility-first products, centralized growth tactics (like Uber/DoorDash geographic expansion) may be necessary. This challenges the assumption that utility alone drives adoption.

 --- Product today does not really support large ticket on/offramping (due to how the reputation system works)
 --- Defi businesses all make money from whales and/or price-insensitive retail traders. Can P2P win either of these segments? The userbase today is largely young people, so there’s some line of sight to winning the retail trader group
