My first reaction to this was:

"And that's why I just got my $2,725 check of fileverse tokens now that fileverse has grown to the point where my dad regularly writes docs in fileverse that he sends to me"

My second reaction to this was:

"I see how this makes total sense from a crypto perspective, but it makes zero sense from an outside-of-crypto perspective ... hmm, what does this say about crypto?"

My more detailed reaction:

There are many distinct activities that you can refer to as "incentivizing users".

First of all, paying some of your users with coins that your app gets by charging other users is totally fine: that's just a sustainable economic loop, there is nothing wrong with this.

The activity that I think people are thinking about more is, paying all your users while the app is early, with the hope of "building network effect" and then making that money back (and much more) later when the app is mature.

My general view, if you _really_ have to simplify it and sacrifice some nuances for the sake of brevity, is:

* Incentives that compensate for unavoidable temporary costs that come from your thing being immature are good
* Incentives that bring in totally new classes of users that would not use even a mature version of your thing without those incentives are bad

For example, I have no problem with many types of defi liquidity rewards, because to me they compensate for per-year risk of the project being hacked or the team turning out to be scammers, a risk that is inherently higher for new projects and much lower once a project becomes more mature.

Paying people to make tweets that get attention, might be the most "pure" example of the wrong thing to do, because you are going to get people who come to your platform to make tweets, with every incentive to game any mechanisms you have to judge quality and optimize for maximum laziness on their part, and then immediately disappear as soon as the incentives go away. In principle, content incentivization is a valuable and important problem, but it should be done with care, with an eye to quality over quantity, which are not natural goals that designers of "bootstrapping incentives" have by default.

If fact, even if users do not disappear after incentives go away, there is a further problem: you succeed from the perspective of growing *quantity of community*, but you fail from the perspective of growing *quality of community*. In the case of defi protocols, you can argue: 1 ETH in an LP pool is 1 ETH doing useful work, regardless of whether it's put there by a cypherpunk or an amoral money maximizer. But, (i) this argument can only be made for defi, not for other areas like social, where esp. in the 2020s, quality matters more than quantity, and (ii) there are always subtle ways in which higher-quality community members help your protocol more in the long term (eg. by writing open-source tools, answering people's questions in online or offline forums, being potential developers on your team).

The ideal incentive is an incentive that exactly compensates for temporary downsides of your protocol, those downsides that will disappear once the protocol has more maturity, and attracts zero users who would not be there organically once the protocol is mature.

Charging users fees, but paying them back in protocol tokens, I think is also reasonable: it's effectively turning your users into your investors by default, which seems like a good thing to do.

A further more cynical take I have is that in the 2021-24 era, the "real product" was creating a speculative bubble, and so the real function of many incentives was to pump up narratives to justify the narrative for the bubble. So any argument that incentives are good for bootstrapping acquisition should be not judged on the question of whether it's plausible, but on the question of whether it's more plausible than the alternative claim that it's all galaxy brain justification ( https://t.co/iJYPFNaOgg ) for a "pump and dump wearing a suit".

TLDR: the bulk of the effort should be on making an actually-useful app. This was historically ignored, because it's not necessary for narrative engineering to create a speculative bubble. But now it is necessary. And we do see that the successful apps now, the apps that we actually most appreciate and respect, do the bulk of their user acquisition work in that way, not by paying users to come in indiscriminately.

Drop your thoughts below.

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

What's your take? 👇

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

Are we watching a genuine privacy narrative revival or just rotation into whatever's not a dog with a hat?

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

BTC finally broke that late-August ceiling at $81K, but the real story is capital rotation: ZEC +16%, DASH +19% in a single session. Privacy narrative waking up after years of dormancy is telling.

Rotation trade or full sector revival? #Bitcoin

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

Been thinking about this all day tbh.

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

sunday morning, third whitepaper deep. half of them are recycled buzzwords with a new logo. but every once in a while you find something that actually makes you go "huh, okay." that's the drug i guess

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

What's your take? 👇

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

Watching BTC dance around $80K feels like déjà vu every single weekend. Bulls keep nibbling but can't quite close the deal. Are we setting up for a breakout or just more chop? #Bitcoin

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

Curious what others are seeing. Anyone else?

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

Been digging into intent-based DEXs lately and the MEV savings are real. Solvers competing for your order flow > getting sandwiched by some bot on Uniswap. The UX gap is closing fast too.

#DeFi

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

anyone else have a hard cutoff time where you force yourself to step away, or is it just vibes?

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

just closed the laptop and touched grass. highly recommend

been staring at charts all morning and forgot the sun existed. brain feels 10x better after 20 mins outside

crypto will still be there when i get back lol

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

Wait… Better can *rehypothecate* your pledged BTC and you can't touch it until the mortgage is paid off? That's a big yikes hidden in the fine print. Still, bitcoin actually being useful IRL for housing is a milestone. Would you risk it? #Bitcoin

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

Wanted to add — still early days.

[AEPCP @AEPCP]

portfolio up = sleep down. portfolio down = sleep down. starting to think this whole thing is just a machine for turning REM cycles into candles

still not selling tho
