I get the anger and frustration when someone gets rugged. It sucks.
But giving grifters 24/7 airtime doesn't fix anything.
Call them out, sure, but use that time to educate the people we're trying to protect.
If we’re going to highlight anyone, let’s shine a light on the ones showing up every single day to help you win both financially and mentally.
I’ll Start with two legends I highly respect:
• @Rockchilld3 & the @mothvslamp $LAMP community
@HardScaleCo & the #CCFFOO community
Both of you and your communities represent what web3 is actually supposed to be.
Appreciate everything you do. 🤝🫡
Why I’m bullish on $BAES and Bario Punks (@basebario) on @base
This is an under the radar consumer crypto ecosystem with live products, real revenue, and a closed-loop flywheel.
1. Live Products & Base Pedigree
• Live onchain game store (https://t.co/cqiqfuD60i), retro OS (bariOS), and autonomous AI game rails.
• WebGL games mint as playable NFT cartridges where devs pocket 90% of sales instantly.
• Proven builders: Runner-up in Base Batches 001 with a $40k grant and direct incubation from Base/Coinbase.
2. Bario Punks: 3,333 Productive Workers
• Not static PFPs. Only 3,333 exist, acting as the workforce in Punk Town.
• Lock your Punk with BAES to work: 50% of the $BAES is burned forever, and 50% goes to the reserve backing the NFT floor.
• Staked Punks leave liquid supply, triggering an ongoing supply crunch.
3. Real Yield Backed by Tokenized US Stocks
• Protocol volume and DEX fees are converted to WETH to buy tokenized shares of Apple, Google, Meta, and Nvidia on the open market.
• These equities are paid directly to active working Punks.
• 40% of net profits from their Robinhood Chain Gacha game are bridged straight to Base to fund this pool.
4. Clean Tokenomics ($BAES)
• 100B fixed supply, 100% circulating, zero mint function, zero inflation.
• Uniswap v4 liquidity is permanently locked via @clanker_world .
• Deflationary sinks hardcoded into every product.
5. The Macro @Base Catalyst
If @Base leadership(@jessepollak , @cobie@brian_armstrong etc) starts heavily pushing native NFT ecosystems, what gets the spotlight? IMO, they will back battle-tested, Base Batches-incubated teams running real onchain commerce.
At current micro-cap levels, the asymmetry here is 🚀
