@meeseeking @CreamdotFinance Daily trading volume of FTT is about $2mm according to Coingecko. $78mm of FTT blows through the order book a couple dozen times. Any substantial drop in price will create a liquidation cascade and the chance of shortfall is substantial.

stealth startups are for people who can't ship. if you ship, then it doesn't matter if people know what you're building, you'll beat them to market and win. weak as hell move to be scared that someone is going to steal your *idea* and beat you, disqualifying founder behavior imho

Protocols that fork should "kick up" to the protocol they fork. Like if you fork Yearn, allocate 20% of your tokens to the YFI multisig. I think CREAM did this for COMP. It's the least you could do, and helpful to not totally piss off people working on achieving similar goals

When most people build a product, they ask, "How big is the market?" Normally, it's not a question of _if_ you can answer that question, but _how_. Not in crypto - we dug in the trenches to size the market for crypto infrastructure so you don't have to

This is dope, but it's inherently broken because it forces DAO members to vote on each move. This is a bad way to do things in a DAO. The DAO should just hire a chess player. Why should everyone in the DAO learn chess? Very inefficient for a firm to operate like this
