Base and Farcaster both pivoting away from social simultaneously is not the signal some of you think it is. Base has no reason to acquire Farcaster.

Update: It appears that if you share 100% of the creator fees with another user on the platform, it shows as their deployment. Nefarious actors are taking advantage of this by launching coins associated with Alon, pumpfun's founder. So far 50+ tokens have been launched, tricking users into aping in. 🤦‍♂️

Nikita kills InfoFi, sending multiple projects to the heap. On one hand, it's probably a net positive for humanity that this meta is dying. The slop was unbearable. On the other, it shows how quickly entire verticals can be destroyed by a single, centralized counterparty.

Update: Now they won't speak to me in English at all
I responded to my housekeeper in Spanish and the whole team stopped talking until they left. I feel like a secret agent who just got made.

The former mayor of New York City dropped a token, it ran to half a billy and dumped 85% in a matter of hours. He failed to update DexScreener so degens have been making the token page look hilarious. Each day we're embarrassed further as an industry.
