Is it weird for me to wish that this kind of creative thinking would be put to better uses? :)

Yes I would say that is weird, although none of the above would be considered creative anymore. Maybe 10 months ago during the first two months of the first AMM releasing its updated version, Uniswap 2.0. It is very easy to have a node or python bot set up to look for liquidity pool deployment transactions and immediately create a transaction to buy the asset in the second argument field. Uniswap 3.0 is coming out next week, so if it is as monumental as 2.0 last year, this summer should have just as much creativity as last summer, so you'll have plenty of things to criticize there. All the other AMMs came out after Uniswap 2.0 and have slight differences just using Uniswap 2.0 code. It is unlikely they will update exactly to Uniswap 3.0 but they'll follow the market. This space moves extremely fast with lots of competitors if you know how to code and haven't been spending the last half a decade doing something meaningful like working for an ad-retargeting conglomerate while complaining about cryptocurrencies.

Wait until you discover traditional finance derivatives ;) https://demonocracy.info/infographics/world/lqp/liquidity_pyramid.html https://demonocracy.info/infographics/world/lqp/liquidity_py...

  Except the barrier to entry in the crypto to space is nill. Kids are learning order books and depth charts because they _can_ Not because traditional finance gave a fuck about them or even tried to educate them. For better or worse, that's the game in 2021.
