The central dogma of SV is perhaps that you need high talent concentrations to scale. ‘If you can’t hire 500 engineers in a quarter when you hit takeoff you’re ngmi” belief system. Even with a lot of trad companies moving away from Bay Area for scale out, the belief in talent concentrations is still very high. The “SF is so back!” endemic meme underlines the strength of this dogma.
Crypto ecosystems are a clear counter-example. Outside of big events like Devcon, no SV-style concentration exists …
