Great essay @Shomik. Reminds of an analogy from the Legendary Geoffrey Moore when he talks about bowling alleys & headpins. The headpin is that niche that can (hopefully) catalyze a knock-on effect where adjacent communities are adopting & using your application.
The Network Density lens injects some additional depth and suggests potential to build a moat versus Moore's "market entry & acquisition" focus with the Bowling Alley; though I still think there is healthy overlap.
Another great piece Shomik!
>Start small before going big. Go niche to go broad.< love this as it applies to so many areas 🙌🏻

As always, thanks for sharing.
For anyone curious on more of Moore. ;-)
