crypto

I looked through the main newspapers, nobody was talking about Bitcoin (rather politics) except Sueddeutsche Zeitung behind a paywall and it said: “IMAGINE ITS BITCOIN ATH AND NOBODY NOTICES” and can’t agree more 🤓

I overheard some people talking about buying the btc dip recently, prob many heard fintech podcasts talk about stablecoins but I don’t sense a big interest. And I don’t see a big interest from crypto people about onboarding their friends or sharing crypto opportunities with friends - rather extracting anonymously from the people that are already here. (But maybe that’s just my perception and there’s very diff bubbles elsewhere)

Everyone in crypto is so focused on optimizing for attention in the currently small playgrounds (crypto twitter, farcaster, kaito, cookie, crypto VCs) that they miss getting any attention from the mass market, millions of other people.

Exception: a few CEXs and memecoin influencers - but no legit onchain builders.

In 2017 and 2020 there was 100s of teams with projects or at least whitepapers who targeted 10000s of community contributors who targeted millions of new crypto investors.
