Okay hold on, but belief doesn't pay developer salaries or server bills. You think you can get 100 screaming users for a complex, scalable product without significant upfront capital? In most competitive markets, while you're busy "validating pain" , someone else with VC money is already building out a full team, acquiring users aggressively and eating your lunch. Building signal itself costs money and time that many truly disruptive ideas just don't have before they need serious backing.
