useful frame: you can think of every crypto protocol as an onchain game. whether it is governance, launching a token, yield farming most of these are built on well understood primitives. there is little fundamentally different from zora or clanker from a contract perspective all innovation in this space comes from extending these games. finding insights that lead to new behaviors or uses capital in new or more efficient ways so if you’re building something, it’s less useful to think about how do you directly compete with others (we are a launchpad for X), but rather, discover new things that make these games fundamentally different from everyone else seems obvious but much harder in practice. new money ideas are usually simple or seem inconsequential. but creativity is a scarce resource and these new ideas tend to form from deep experience in the industry case in point zora moved from erc721 -> erc1155 -> erc20. from auctions -> mints -> token launches the latest state sound obvious now. but jacob sees crypto through a lens that you don’t. and because of that zora will have its own unique outcome
