more thoughts on creator tokens. 🧵 1) Creator tokens are not like other tokens. This is the core problem imo. the tech is neutral yet the culture isn't. we keep forcing creator tokens into speculation frames—pumps, flips, roadmaps. Trying to adopt culture designed for something else is not the way. The issue isn’t the ledger, it’s the mindset. Not everything should fall under the same culture. This forced idea that speculation culture must always be attached to the underlying technology will not allow the tech to be woven into other aspects of our lives. You want collectables: buy the nft. You want to bet on something: clank a meme. You want to be rewarded: seek out a project’s airdrop. None of the above should be auto adopted to everything that is a token just because the tech is the same.
