💀 Cause at a glance

Primary cause
Capital burn and competition squeezed cash flow
Decline chain
Competition intensifies → funding dependence deepens → cash flow breaks → sale or shutdown
Key constraint
In capital-heavy markets, survival requires funding until the breakeven point
Agent re-assessment
The cause is unrelated to agent capability; solve the original constraint first
Lesson
Before entering a capital-heavy race, confirm you can survive to breakeven
