since ppl are discussing blockchains as experiments in economics lemme post an old article exploring the idea:

Degen culture has been an unmitigated disaster.

Speaking past each other is Crypto’s primary use case.

Did you lose sight of your cypherpunk values anon?

We are indeed currently in the process of large changes to EF leadership structure, which has been ongoing for close to a year. Some of this has already been executed on and made public, and some is still in progress.

What we're trying to achieve is primarily the following goals:

* Improve level of technical expertise within EF leadership
* Improve two-way communications and ties between EF leadership and the ecosystem actors, old and new, that it is our role to support: users (individual and institutional), app devs, wallets, L2s
* Bring in fresh talent, improve execution ability and speed
* Become more actively supportive of app builders, and make sure important values and inalienable rights (esp privacy, open source, censorship resistance) are a reality for users including at the app layer
* Continue to increase our use of decentralized and privacy tech and the Ethereum chain, including for payments and treasury management

...

The non-goals are almost as important here. Essentially a rejection of the internal push to destroy Crypto values: centralisation, corporatisaton and populist Americanism.

the Siqi story is so dumb. he could actually have launched a followup memecoin w/ a mission building a mira type mission. sort of a first stab at Vitalik's charity memecoin genre. instead it's garbage in, garbage out once again in "the trenches"

X is garbage. join @LensProtocol promote @warpcast_

our new Maximalists have completely take the wrong lesson from the success of Bitcoin Maximalism. they are looking to its older hostile era as effective when in fact its effective era is its current one, which is muted and disinterested in other ecosystems.

Just watched 'The Wrong Man' (1956), a surprisingly grounded and serious turn from Hitchcock. His only movie based on real life. Especially impressive is Vera Miles as idealised housewife who is slowly turned insane by the events of the movie.

memecoin bit.

Feel like a ransomware victim buying all these robux gift cards for the Xmas yoof

Ethereum's therapist would absolutely tell it to stop catastrophizing.

i see ppl are not going to be on CT on election day because it'll be bad. i disagree, i think it's top tier brainrot, unrivalled even. unmissable nonsense.

i actually think you could trace many ETH problems back to EIP-1559:
- made the distinction *from* Bitcoin fuzzy
- ironicallyrevealed ETH's monetary policy is changeable
- start of narrative-hopping
- large contributor to Maxi folly, which over time looks like arrogance
