Was waiting with my T-rex because wanted to make sure that the app is ready for more users. Now you should be able to mint without worries. PS: App has been safe - you just mint an NFT, there are no signers.

We crossed 150 dinos minted and I found out that most of you choose T-Rex. I thought Farcaster has more of a Diplo vibe. If you wanted to dig in you can check Dune dashboard here:

Crazy how Optimism lost its dominance in the last 2 years. At Devcon 2024 it felt like everyone is going to launch an L2 on an OP Stack. Now even Base - its biggest success story - is leaving.
Base transitions to an independent stack, was previously on Optimism. This will be a transition from optimistic rollup to zero-knowledge proving. https://blog.base.dev/next-chapter-for-base-chain-1

how is it possible that Base turned off Farcaster and DAU numbers barely changed? people didn't interact with FC via Base App?

i have sympathy for the Base team because running such project in a corporation is not easy. everyone (both inside and outside) has their own vision and you need to somehow find a consensus AND generate profit. but i also wonder what if all the money, energy and attention went into different areas than they did
the level of which Coinbase has fumbled base this cycle is radicalizing me

πŸ¦• because it was the first dinosaur I ever saw when I was a kid
Are you more of a T-Rex (πŸ¦–) or a Diplo (πŸ¦•) person?
