GM to the people still building on Base while half of CT loses conviction the second something shinier shows up.
What gets old is watching people leave, then turn every frustration they had into a reason the whole chain is failing. They call it honest feedback, but a lot of the time it is really just anger that their idea was not picked, or the chain did not move exactly how it benefited them.
Being optimistic does not mean thinking @base is perfect. It means seeing what needs work without making negativity your entire contribution. Give the feedback, help make things better, and keep pushing.
Some people want Base to win. Others only want Base to work for them. There is a big difference.
"If—" is a poem by English poet Rudyard Kipling
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too:
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim,
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same:
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools;
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss:
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much:
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And—which is more—you'll be a Man, my son!
Sad state of affairs when most mainstream media journalists can’t be trusted to tell the truth at this point.
As a founder, you have to hunt to find the good ones and spend more of your time going direct or with new media, bypassing them entirely.
Many traditional media companies got disrupted by tech, and therefore came to hate tech. So they have a conflict of interest in all tech reporting, even if they don’t disclose it. Others are mainly political propaganda organizations at this point (Marxist etc) and try to label it journalism to prey on ignorant people.
Actual journalism is important and even heroic at times (war zones etc), it just isn’t practiced very often by traditional media companies any more, which is a shame and why we need new media companies.
Tokenised equities bring yield from outside crypto.
Stocks pay dividends, and lending them out to short sellers is one of the oldest businesses in finance.
I think this will lead to a rerating of DeFi protocols.
Had a great time at Airbnb and learnt a ton from @bchesky, @jgebbia, and @nathanblec.
Most of the time this advice is correct. But when I read the Bitcoin whitepaper I realized there was a huge opportunity, and the world needed an updated financial system. Couldn't wait.
