Building your entire operation on someone else's API? That's a precarious position. When third-party access becomes your sole lifeline, you're essentially betting against the house controlling it.

Look at InfoFi, Kaito, Xeet, Cookie—all riding on borrowed infrastructure. The moment the plug gets pulled or access gets restricted, these platforms crumble. That's not a business model; that's a vulnerability masquerading as strategy.

Sustainable projects need sovereignty over their core infrastructure. Anything less is just renting a house you'll never own.
