Spoke to @ted today briefly about bringing more research content over to Farcaster. Perhaps a full @base.base.eth ecosystem deep dive? 🤔
Recently laid off—would appreciate any recasts! In crypto since 2013, professionally for 7+ yrs. Founding member at The Block (6 yrs), where I was Research Director & built a funding data product used by top institutions. Open to all roles, but best fit for research, ventures, corp dev, or ecosystem. Let’s connect!
If we want better apps, we need better incentives. Investors and founders shouldn’t be getting exits through liquid tokens if there’s been no meaningful, sustainable traction. Success should be DAUs & meaningful adoption, not launching your token at the right time.
Tokenizing every post sounds powerful - and Zora nails the UZ - but distribution still rules. Without an audience, there’s no demand. Crypto keeps building markets before proving anyone needs what’s being sold
