I'm so excited to launch Megapot V2 While I'm proud of all the improvements, I wanted to answer the # 1 question I get asked: "why are you building a gambling app when you can literally build anything else?" 🧵

The new Megapot is finally live! Crazy that I started working on lotteries 2 years ago. This is our 3rd launch, but the 1st with a whole team supporting me. Main announcement coming next week :)

We’ve never been more excited to build on Base 🟦
The Base and Farcaster community has supported us this past year, so we want to make sure y’all get in early The new Megapot launches soon and our liquidity pool has a low deposit cap. Liquidity providers earned 100%+ APY early on in Megapot. Learn more here: https://x.com/megapot/status/2032511789259468980

Building in SF is insanely inspiring I was in the same batch as the founders of Koah Labs and Profound. They just raised $20M and $96M yesterday + Further AI ($25M), Foam, Lica, and many others Grateful to have sat at the same table at South Park Commons with them

The amount of unhinged ideas I'm getting daily is increasing as I've been diving into content and GTM Kinda scared about what I've become

1) we've done 30+ user interviews now 2) everyone on the team conducts them, not just me
A lot of crypto founders could benefit from 1) doing more user interviews 2) learning how to conduct a good user interview (e.g. don't ask leading questions, seeing how someone is actually using your product, don't jump in immediately when someone pauses or gets stuck, etc)

Looking for intros to people who make launch videos: - Need help landing the narrative and creative direction - Video is for X for our product relaunch and fundraise announcement - Want it cinematic and emotional - Not looking for UI demos, motion graphics, abstract visuals, or founder talking to camera

The world’s most popular game is also the most rigged Maybe the answer isn’t just less expected value Maybe it’s allowing anyone to be the house

this is why we're building @megapot v2 quietly when we have something we want the public to notice, you'll hear about it until then, we're doing daily user feedback sessions on our beta app, while reworking narratives, redoing user flows, and trying some off-the-wall ideas

Build-in-public is probably the wrong move for startups, where the attention they command is finite Ironically, Build-in-public may be best for established companies: you can pre-announce features, get early feedback from the userbase, identify all edge-cases, get buy-in from
