Blocker: help with “Distill and Amplify”
- we need some more help with idea extraction into simple process / diagrams / content
- there are brilliant people floating around NEAR collective and wider ecosystem that only travel in small circles with low volume outputs - need to distill and amplify - personally I need help with diagrams and distillation on the user onboarding work I’ve been doing and I’m guilty of over-indexing on “do” vs. explain

great work, Matt! 
I’m happy to help with diagrams and process to make it easier for users and developers to understand how that works, and reuse the patterns in other DApps.
