I hope @RyanSAdams, @TrustlessState, &
@bankless see this

You guys changed my life, thank you. Don't listen to the haters.

You gents have been inspiring me since Nov 2020 to be bankless & I've been traveling the world for over a year because of y'all.

The world needs you. And your channel!

You guys are the representation of passion, honesty, intellect, & honor within the Web3 space. You are the cornerstone to this foundation and we need y'all to know it.

In 10 years you will look back and think of this misplaced hate & FUD as just a blimp in time, don't let it stop the movement you've created and the millions of people who have learned and been onboarded to Web3 because of you. You've changed so many peoples lives like mine that you couldn't even fathom.

I am truly grateful to have stumbled upon your podcast. You've inspired me to become a builder and humbly I've been grinding in the background as a pioneer like y'all helping create the foundation of our new digital economy. You inspired me to do so, so please don't listen to the hate.

This is the Frontier, we're headed west!

@NoahEpstein_ Honestly, I've spent the last 5 months building out an entire sales pipeline with AI Agents for a 20M/m business and I don't think we are at the point of integrate, turn a key, and boom.
- Saved them 1.5M thus far in overhead & looking to 4x their Rev in the next 18 months.

So, let me get this straight.
It took Ethereum a decade of compounding progress and relentless execution to reach:
- $85B in DeFi TVL, the largest decentralized financial base in existence.
- $165B in stablecoins circulating across its ecosystem.
- $13B in tokenized RWAs and growing.
- $73B in NFT trading volume across 23M buyers.
- $27B held in ETFs and $24B in corporate treasuries.
- 8+ execution clients, 12,500+ nodes, ~200 L2s, and 15,000 active developers.
- Universal wallet support and Bitcoin-level brand recognition.
- A $1B Ethereum Foundation treasury and institutional adoption across the world’s largest firms.

And yet, some people panic over a new startup that just raised $500M on a $5B paper valuation, incubated by a VC firm, hyped for a niche payments use case, with no credible product in market, buying their way into a theoretical playbook.

Let’s dramatize the reality:
People severely underestimate the switching costs and barriers to entry in building a general-purpose L1, earning developer trust, attracting real users, onboarding apps, integrating with wallets, getting listed on exchanges, performing updates, supporting the chain, sustaining research & development, and maintaining credibly neutral decentralization.

Momentum, credibility, scalability, interoperability, privacy, trust, uptime track record, and network gravity are the hardest things to buy or replicate.

@legen_eth None of those lol; Madrid, Medellin, London, Dubai, Luxembourg

We are bringing heat on @base

Our Agents are achieving phenomenal results:

Joker is up over 450%
DeFi has passed 250%

This is THE edge. Soon on Base.
