You can replicate the code, but you can't replicate the soul. That's where it began—the real magic that no fork can capture.

Forking code is easy, copying the soul is difficult... This is the Achilles' heel of Web3.

Forks are useless; only projects with a soul can last long.

This guy is right, anyone can copy the code, but that original intention truly can't be replicated. Some things just can't be forked.

Code can be copied, but the soul cannot... This sentence is spot on, it perfectly describes the common flaw of those fork projects.

Code can be copied, but the soul cannot... That's right, which is why some projects never get off the ground.

Code can be copied, but the soul cannot... Truly well said, this is what Web3 should look like.
