moose

not too long ago, i adopted a new dog.

while thinking of names, i turned to farcaster and asked @vitalik.eth for suggestions...

"moose is currently the frontrunner fwiw" — i said.

vitalik replied almost instantly: "yeah i like moose." https://warpcast.com/vitalik.eth/0xa2b7d661

... and just like that, the name was sealed.

but the moose lore runs deeper.

moose was already a word vitalik secretly loved — a weird little placeholder he'd drop in code to find his way back.

"I think the vast majority of developers still debug using print() statements."

@paulg I do this!

Also, when I'm editing (code or text) and I need to jump to some other section but I know I will need to jump back, I put the word "moose" somewhere, so I can ctrl+F for it easily when I need to get back.

moose loves to eat my stuff since he was a puppy, the more expensive it is the more he likes eating it.
he has destroyed anything from trash, to my airpods, to literally every pair of shoes i owned.

he also loooves jumping — it’s actually impressive how high he can go.
and of course, he loves getting pets all the time (specially when i’m busy during videocalls).

sometimes i think he knows he’s the main character…and maybe he is.

now the $MOOSE is loose.

there’s no team, no utility, and no roadmap.
just a good boy with his own coin.

not financial advice — sniff your own research.
