0xen 🎩 on Farcaster

0xen 🎩 pfp

The most mysterious of the Base wealth creation events from 2024 was Aero. 2 to 800m in 6 months, eventually to 1.5b. Early on nobody was talking about it on Farcaster though here would be the most obvious place to find alpha about something like that. Feels like everyone missed it but there it was, plain as day, incredibly obvious in retrospect. I wonder if it was more CT people that did well on it. Any early Aero whales here?

To be fair talking about tokens was de facto verboten on farcaster in late 2023 so it wasn't expected that people would be talking about it then, but still, even when it started to really run early 2024 it was crickets.

yeah I think the first time I heard about aerodrome was when the degen LP pool got created. should've looked more into it then, but I was just getting started into speculating on altcoins/memecoins still bullish that aerodrome is one of the best proxies for base

day 1 aerodrome user here. was an early velodrome user as well and vevelo holders received an veaero airdrop of approx 30% of their velo staking. also received some non-staked aero as well. now that i remember, i was actually a minute 1 user as i was online for the claim and claimed it immediately. Had a few projects that really did well. was really happy to see aero break out like it did. i created a number of video tutorials on how to stake, vote, etc early on too. love the idea of it and UI has just gotten better over the years.

Do you think it’s partially bc people don’t flex their personal wealth events here? Like it’s kind of in see as in poor taste and also implicitly feels like selling out from under a builder? And when it comes to fc based projects, I think people here don’t really believe yet that things here can actually break into X etc… even though $clanker was very impressive, and now we have $bankr. $bracky is clearly next… It’s perplexing to me who sees it and who doesn’t.

I was also surprised at the time no one was talking about aero, and now no one is talking about hydrex, just anti airdrop farmers over here? but we do love our airdrops lol, just don't want to work for them

Never used Aero- the UI is miserable IMO. Buying the token early was a layup pick.

Well, to be fair, /degen and /airstack used it as an lp and stake provider for their coins back then. Used it but was not aware of what aero will become.
