Memecoins are a bootloader for “real” assets onchain. If you are disenchanted, I understand. But what’s being built is a much better financial system, and we cannot get there w/o memecoins. Bitcoin = 10x better gold. Stablecoins = 10x better USD. Tokens = 10x better assets. https://x.com/trustlessstate/status/1922635800522473589

disagree, memecoins are ostensibly already played out, it's following closely in the footsteps of NFTs. NFTs are still useful tech themselves, when you build utility into them, but the zero-utility artcoins and apes are all vaporized now, nobody is pretending a jpg is some new financial vehicle all on its own. and crucially, nothing of value was built/gained from the '21 speculative NFT bubble - opensea is dead in the water, every major NFT platform/marketplace/tracker has long since moved on - it's a distraction and a dead end. tokens and defi will be around in 2y, but none of these memecoin tooling platforms will be. it seems like a good time to remember that the whole world outside NYC reviles Wallstreet. most people have zero desire to "be a trader", it's vulgar and zero-sum. the people pushing this "Manhattan Crypto" narrative are actually just the bankers, getting rich selling gas and wallet services. Manhattan Crypto is just... Manhattan.

Hoffman is basically saying only cash flow is “real”. Lots of “real” things of value are intangible externalities. If tokens are just for cash flows then we don’t need to bother with them. Neither gold or bitcoin has cash flow.

Great network stress testers, though I’m a toe in the Murad “believe in something” camp in that these weird online communities are mini cults

Memecoins may seem frivolous, but they’re helping build the foundation for a more efficient financial system.
