curious if this is how "project coins" will play out (and specifically when we'll see a good example of #3):

1. launch clanker to fund prototype—like a "seed round" for a crypto protocol. max trust toward the dev
2. project evolves or dies (most die)
3. app becomes a protocol, migrate clanker coins to dao tokens

qr coin a great example of a project that could do this... maybe auction revenues are already collected in a dao like structure? not sure

good morning,

just bought another 100 million $QR :)

(fully funded by revenue recent auctions revenue) https://t.co/ZHvdKaRkJz

people are always asking what we do with our revenue @qrcoindotfun, as if there should be some sort of fixed formula.

this is a common question that crypto projects receive, and i sort of understand where it's coming from, but i also think it's pretty dumb.

from my perspective,

Completely agree with his point. As a builder you need the space to experiment—a chorus of random anons with short term thinking, who happened to spend $5 on a coin, constantly questioning and advising your next move is wholly unsustainable.

ig my question is more so in the long run (not for QR specifically but for project coins generally) how they transition into a model that can live on forever, and what happens to the project coin launched at the beginning in that case (knowing that this might take years and most will fail).
