Sharing the reasoning behind why myself and Group Purple voted in favor of the Blvkhvnd prop "Feelin Purple"

Huge shout-out to @sirsu.eth for being so transparent & involved throughout the prop process 🙌 -- excited to see how things go! 🟪 🫡

🤖 beep boop, I'm a bot, reply with "@remindme 1 day" to get a reminder about a cast! Built by @borodutch with ❤️ Open source: bit.ly/3O04uq4

cto @ bwl.gg, 100M+ users (bdut.ch) 🙏 $eggs is life

👋 @borodutch you asked me to remind you about this cast in 6 months 🫡

with that being said, I don’t know how much it contributed to the stats you mentioned — but on the flip side I think you might be able to say the same about a small % of props Purple has passed(directly or through retro)

that isn’t to say we should throw $$ away or not analyze these things!!

a few notes here:

I don’t think it was the most successful prop by metrics but I’m still big fans of both Sirsu and his project Blvkhvnd(which on its own has been doing some really cool stuff) and think he took the right steps to construct the prop

@dylsteck.eth how did it go?

did the money spend increase dau?

did it become anything more substantial?

or just money thrown away that didn't affect anything?

and not like it's a competition or anything or that i wanted to get funded by purple (in fact, i did win one of the props)

more like conceptually: if that money was given to retro devs, there would be more devs operating (even a small increase of devs would be better than whatever that prop brought fc)

if only it won one of the props, right?

oh, no, it lost to the sirsu proposal

also very neat that the remindme bot has been around for a while & is still doing its job!
