i predicted this a few days ago, and i'm not surprised. one of the most embarrassing things to happen on base played out in real time. the $BRIAN token was supposedly going to be the first $100M mcap B20 token on base. @barmstrong changed his pfp to it to show support, and people bridged back from robinhood to base hoping to see it through. at least that’s what the community hoped. then all of a sudden he changed it back to a punk. $BRIAN crashed 95% from $22M to $1.5M. 10,000+ people cooked. the craziest part? this isn't even the first time: - jesse's token - content coins - zora leaving for solana - the base app "social" to "merkle" farcaster getting sold - chain outages - base token tease with no delivery the community has been saying this for months. base just keeps experimenting on the people who trust them most. not saying this to be negative. the pattern is just undeniable at this point.

"The kernel project has been and will continue to be about the technology." the common drag in crypto, generally, is the short-term predator mentality capitalizing on a coveted prize which many others were accruing for "attention/momentum/belief" or mass in the abstract. mechanically, a publicly traded corporation answers to shareholders, and the stock market has been glacial firesale for a few generations, so their horizon is only frothy commons in need of shovel stands. actual dedication to craft is arduous, sometimes fatalistically successive. as John Adams put it, "I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy." the inverse of this is the cutthroat snobbiness which currently broadcasts anthropocentric cope. ultimately, every scene needs rejuvenated ardor, selfless love for the recreation, sometimes bitterly recognizing unfit, facile "leadership". https://lore.kernel.org/linux-media/CAHk-=wi4zC+Ze8e+p3tMv8TtG_80KzsZ1syL9anBtmEh5Z40vg@mail.gmail.com/

Frog changed the logo to match Robinhood's colors. "There," he said. "Now users will think we are officially partnered with Robinhood." "But we have no users," said Toad. "That is true," said Frog.

Buffett was so right for "tide goes out", especially for any hypothecation of future value that is revealed to be a game of affinity, confidence, and connection. however, ideological capture is "a frozen-in-time monument of misguided stubborn stupidity" when consensus is a market that chases the future with deflationary information technology. the secular trend of literacy, telecommunications, distributed computing, and machine intelligence eventually points to proliferating development, some process of archiving content that can be taken for granted and opensourcing whatever artificially-scarce intelligence is charging premium rent. in the case of recent hype like RH chain, this manifests as high churn of information-themed equities, no doubt we will see more regulatory backlash as arbitrary and capricious whimsy continues to recede. remember ethereum classic and ethereumpow? https://x.com/adam3us/status/2074763410743435374?s=20 https://x.com/VictorTaelin/status/2074826542140522911?s=20

only one man got airdrop farmers, content creators, builders, and interns to unite and push the same token just to pump their bags 😂 big motion in the solana trenches. $ansem is now sitting at a $304M market cap — higher than some of the biggest tokens on base right now: $degen: ~$35M $brett: ~$70M $toshi: ~$87M the solana trenches are built different.

Damn, that's quite group of corporate backers. I could see this being as big or bigger than $USDT.

same whiplash applied to crypto, where we were floating on "WAGMI" and the wealth effect was cycling into moonshots, while marketing budgets were exorbitant, then there was a point with insider airdrops and FT, where newcomers correctly sensed that they were adversely selected by special interest and had no sense of durable upside. at the moment, crypto does not feel credibly neutral, and in a recession where everyone struggling to not be decimated, that mutates into grudges and contempt. at one point the media landscape is eagerly counting their rigs and degens are tracking months-long trends, next thing you know, the corporate & core landscape is dumping daily vapor on the proles. clearly there isn't an existential global solidarity, otherwise realworld events wouldn't be so much of a wedge, but the reality is that a lot of influence in crypto is proud to brazenly take advantage for their ingroup, and the rational outsider just steers clear, no matter how much preaching there may be to the choir.

literally in the middle of a bear market, solana's weekly transaction activity just hit an all-time high. 🤯 solana has the biggest community in crypto.
