My take on Fluent:
I don't think the biggest product on @fluentxyz will end up being any single app.
I think it'll be the network effect between them.
Once apps start sharing reputation instead of rebuilding it from scratch, every new launch becomes more useful from day one.
A strong Predictor score, or a solid Print doesn't stay locked inside one app anymore. it becomes part of your identity across the ecosystem.
that's the kind of infra that's many will try to replicate, but won't come close.
the more apps that build on Fluent, the more valuable Prints become. and the more valuable Prints become, the easier it is for the next app to plug into something users have already spent time building.
pretty powerful foundation if you ask me
can someone explain how @noise_xyz works
over the past week claude managed to launch fable 5, and we saw a pretty unique precedent where the usa blocked a product for the entire world
meanwhile, attention keeps declining
is this a signal that interest in ai is fading?

i built frameloop, a decentralized instagram, in 1 week with claude on @shelbyserves
twitter, linkedin, facebook password leaks, myspace data losses… big companies mess up way too often
your data does not belong to you, and that is the main problem
so i built frameloop, an open source solution that will keep living even if this duck flies away and finds a new pond
your photos will stay available for the full storage period you chose when uploading them. even if frameloop shuts down, anyone can come in and download their photos, anyone can launch their own frontend and build their own social network on top of shelby
welcome to frameloop, friend

welcome to frameloop, friend
important note: shelby is currently on devnet and wipes data from time to time
right now, frameloop is more of a use case for decentralized storage than a real product
everything is completely free and uses test tokens
Six weeks in and it’s still up only.
Here's everything that happened on Fluent this week:
→ @FluxFlowFi shipped it’s first integration with Prints. Get verified with Prints and unlock a permanent 1.5x points multiplier on every trade. The first time a reputation signal from one app on Fluent unlocks a tangible benefit on another. Reputation is all you need.
→ @venafinance crossed $25M TVL. The credit layer of Fluent keeps growing, with $BLEND incentives still active on both sides of the book.
→ @PulsePredictor opened 20+ new markets covering sports, the biggest IPO of the week, ETH calls and geopolitics. Since launch, users have made over 4,000 predictions. Predictor Scores continue to reflect in Prints.
→ @Neronaxyz crossed $31M TVL and shipped its May 31 Transparency Report with full proof-of-reserves on Fluentscan. USDnr Strategy reminder: mint USDnr → stake to sUSDnr → lend on Vena → earn $BLEND via Merkl.
→ We hosted the Apps Roundup livestream marking one month post-launch. Guests are @CryptoMeina from Sprout and @zkCyborg from Flux. So many alphas dropped. Link below ↓
That was week 6. Onto week 7.
i’m building the first app of my life
thanks to claude, i can finally try to make an old dream real, a photo album onchain
do you remember how myspace lost all content from 2004 to 2015? they tried to move to new servers and ended up losing tons of user data
a decentralized solution can fix this problem easily, and i chose @shelbyserves as the infra
sometimes i feel like even ducks have more imagination than some builders
dino is right, the market has 50 identical perp dexes and 50 prediction markets right now
and all of them share the same 20,000 users
either you go and onboard the next million retail users, or come up with something new
i’m building a project for preserving memories onchain, and i think it’s an important and pretty cool direction
Don’t build a prediction market for XYZ, build a consumer app
That app might leverage whichever crypto mechanisms are needed to make the experience amazing
