Unless you are former HFTer with millions in the bank to self-fund, and reward trader KOLs with massive airdrops, you shouldn’t be allowed to try something ambitious that requires 7-8 figures of funding is my takeaway from all the HL KOLs. Celestia raised a lot and maybe their.
They say Celestia hasn't invented anything but that's simply not true. TIA has innovated a way for insiders and VCs to sell their locked tokens while claiming that the market cap of the token is far lower, through inflationary staking rewards. TIA walked so Bera could run!.

In the intents discourse, frequently one question arises. How can users avoid getting rekt by operators?. One approach is by introducing the Slow Game. The Slow Game facilitates a coordination process for users to credibly demonstrate their ability to punish extractive operators

This is like comparing “execution sharding” and “modular”. One has a precise mathematical definition, the other is marketing term intentionally derived to push a narrative that supports a new cohort of infrastructure projects.
"Intents" and "Chain Abstraction" cover the same area, but the latter is a 10x better narrative. Intents: how things are done; about order flow & market structure, who extracts value. Chain abstraction: why things are done; user-centric, about consumer value prop.

Nope. You should stay and fight for your rights leveraging the legal system. The US won’t improve if talented natives leave. I’m not leaving, and I am politically active.
If you are starting a crypto project and you are young / don't have many commitments, you should NOT be in the United States. Sad but true. And truer today than ever.

The thing is, seeing this makes me even more bullish on Zcash!. For years I’ve been constantly trying to accumulate as much Zcash as I can afford. I never buy any other coin/token/digital-asset except for ZEC. This encourages me to keep it up. I’m betting on the uncool kid. ⤵️.

If you want more applications, stop worshiping protocols, their tokens, and their creators. Stop thinking of applications as “crypto” apps and instead apps competing in an existing well specified vertical—web w/e. The mental bundling of all crypto apps as an investible.

Nothing in crypto that has product market fit, needs a token except non-sovereign monies (assuming you believe in economic security). Polymarket does not need a token.Pump fun does not need a token.Uniswap V2 does not need a token.Hyperliquid does not need a token.Jito does not.
Product market fit first. Token later. It's not rocket science.

The feed is dominated by giddiness over price, which is to be expected. However, it is apparent that the “hard money” thesis or “store of value” meme is just a facade. Folks literally only care about price relative to American empire bucks. Many hope to transfer these gains back.
