I agree 101% with everything you wrote @imacryptorick. And this is the answer - opinion I gave to someone who commented on one of my posts regarding the future of apps and this platform.

In fact you know what I’d like to see? A couple of skilled devs that will make a killer app and instead of waiting for a delegation they will fund with 500K SP their own project and will be introduced to everyone saying: Hello everyone, we created this app and we don’t need any funding because we made sure to fund it ourselves. Come and try our app because we think it’s the next big thing.

That is the mentality we need. No app should be depended on others’ stakes...and if they can run a node too then it would have been ideal.
