People like to say Zora pivots, I prefer to say we iterate. Here's what shipping the same idea many times over 5 years looks like, taking learnings from each one: Start: + Physical goods on Uniswap pool + 1/1 NFT perpetual auctions + 1/1 NFT coldie auctions + Fixed supply priced editions + 1/1/X fixed price drops + Redeemable NFTs + Timed editions with customizable price + Timed editions with standard mint fee + Timed editions with standard mint fee + rewards model + Lazy minting for gas free creation + first minter reward + Move from marketplace UX to Social UX + Add orderbook style secondary markets + Move to L2 (before base is even live) + Support multichain with a default (our own L2) + Acquire mint fun + Move secondary markets onchain with 1155+ERC20 hybrid + ERC20 bonding curve experiment with wow Decide to go all in on coins + Simplify down to Base only + ERC20 coins on uniswap v3 with rewards model + ERC20 zora + ERC20 coins on uniswap v4 with much better rewards model + ERC20 creator coins + Connect posts, creators coins and zora into one symbiotic market I'm almost certainly missing some things in here as well but you get the gist.

would love to hear more on how you’re personally feeling rn wrt this wave of momentum. does it feel different than prev times of momentum now with tokens ($zora, $jacob) live in the market? how are you staying grounded (if u are) amongst big price swings?

Where does the liquidity come from? How can the model work when the only way for a content coin creator to profit is to sell their token? This cannot be answered and is only ignored

Don't get me wrong on this question please, but why you wanted to acquire mint fun? It was a good platform and since you acquired it, it's dead since then. Was it some kind of tactic to eliminate potential competition or something like that? I thought Zora had plans to work on something on mint fun

pixel to pixel looks like a pivot but step back far enough and the portrait hasn’t changed

As someone’s who’s been showing up with no pause through all the iterations the past few years. Can you please help me understand why of all new features and experimentations, we can’t have a main feed of just what followers post & any extra activity in a second feed?
