The only thing that makes me a little sad is watching the narrative of decentralization and “crypto is for the people” slowly die. I know so many devs and creators from Asia and other parts of the world who’ve been building incredible things on Base since day 1. And yet, of all the people they could’ve spotlighted, they brought Gary on stage. No hate but this cycle made it clear: as a brown artist living in India, I can’t just be good. I have to be exceptional. And even that might just not be enough. 🤎

gary vee taking the base stage was unhinged 

of all people, base chose gary💀

Name one good actor from the NFT cycle who actually made it and stuck around without just extracting.

i find that web3 devs with goodwill, locked in with their work, seem to always have this naïveté re web3 nft 'bad' actors

for real, it's cool that he's doing great stuff with Vee Friends even outside of the CT bubble but not sure how that's aligned with Base and its community in any way

Did he kiss his dad on the mouth as well? Google it

Cleo fits bc independent creator, makes sense

pplplsr is onchain native for a while

Gary Vee is an investor in Coinbase and yaps too much. Doesn’t fit

I thought it was a weird choice but he seemed to perform well I thought

Missed the vee talk because it was really later here in the uk. 

But that’s sad to hear… I don’t know much about Gary vee other than he’s considered a bit of a grifter
