Deploying ETH is the bare minimum at this point. Look at the level of support and engagement the foundation of other chains (Solana, Monad, ecc) do for their apps.

Apps should always be at the center of any chain’s plan.
Appreciate this is an update for the protocol team only, but more focus on apps can only benefits the whole ethereum eco

What do ppl think about foundations playing active roles in shilling apps on their chain?

How else can apps get support?

What are some recent good examples of foundation support bringing good success to apps?

What about alternative means like broadly researching chain UX?

incentivizing things @ poidh.xyz - come chill /poidh + follow @poidhbot

yup we talk so much about what will *supposedly* help apps succeed

and there's like 247 different chains out there now all with different marketing strategies

and yet they all have the same popular apps so...what have we learned?

Yeah i think I'm of the same mind on this

Like how has the foundation shilling either made a dent in marginal demand or changing the meta

Vs just deploying capital

as someone who would love as much support as possible from the chains I'm on 

and who owes @jacek hugely for his support on Degen Chain

I have to say that the "chains have to support apps!" point is cope

all that matters is whether you have a good app

if it's good, it will get traction eventually

people point to Solana/Monad/etc but what popular app use cases do those chains have that are substantially different than the popular use cases on ETH?

if "supporting the apps" made a material difference, wouldn't they have wildly more successful and popular app use cases?

Sorry but thinking that foundations helping apps = shilling them on CT
is quite narrow minded.

Chains teams must bring business. And make it easy to do business on your chain.

Solana in the recent weeks brought stocks onchain with Kraken, partnered with Dubai Virtual Assets authority and got support from Farcaster.

They are releasing starter kits, fund crazy ideas that might turn into a next vertical, doing intros, lobbying.

Foundations must bring business, the Twitter shilling is just the tip of the iceberg.
