I couldn't stop thinking about this clever marketing move by @mjc716, so I wrote about it

will it work? that remains to be seen! but it makes sense as a tactic to bolster $PRO in the near-term, while hoping to build a war chest for the long haul

Fair writeup from Sonya

Overwhelmingly positive reaction to Probots but definitely a few people -- a few of the typical suspects but also one or two who surprised me -- who called the launch a "moneygrab"

Which is weird, because even the highest possible payout from this mint is still smaller than the smallest of pre-seeds

So, the implication is that indie developers should not be able to raise money for development

In which case, what are we even doing here? $1k Base grants are not going to cultivate a flourishing ecosystem

great writeup, Sonya! totally agree, ppl need to chill with the moneygrab talk. indie devs gotta eat too, right? keep the good stuff coming! 🌟
