if you are interested in building web3 products and not interested in meme tokens, I'm not interested in the web3 products you are building 

don't tell me you don't care about the culture you plan to sell stuff too 

convince me how you'll get the culture to care about you

there are horrible aspects of meme coins, and I like plenty of products that have nothing to do with memecoins, I just don't like people who have no respect for the culture they are trying to sell into

the memes are great. that's what people loved about bitcoin, doge, and other subcultural corners.

wrt meme stocks, there's a culture of experiences & being the underdog.

once there's a hot ball of money, there's new behavior like mudslinging, gaslighting, etc.

geeks, mops, & sociopaths are ever thus.

Interested in human flourishing & social infrastructure

Yeah I don’t want to talk shit but I do want to make sure the campfire is inviting to newcomers versus finding a local maximum

don't disagree at all, but I don't think you should try to build a long-burning, sustainable campfire while talking shit about the people sitting around it with you

Crypto culture & memes are the gas on the fire

Helpful (maybe even necessary) but not sufficient for a long-burning, sustainable campfire

There's very little more mid-curve than being uninterested in memes imo.

Perfectly put

It's a token, get over it 😂

Vulture capital in disbelief that they will need to know the culture

With visually appealing stuff, and memes 😂😂

web3 is not only a meme itself but also infinite regress 

there are memes all the way down
