I've changed my mind.
"Creator coins"
"Memecoins"
"Appcoins"
"___coins"
Any of these can be good, if:
1. The founder makes people want to buy.
2. The experience makes people want to hold.
3. The team wants to do more than just cash out.
When a token has all 3 qualities, buy big and hold.
These are very rare, use good judgment.
When a token lacks any 1 quality, buy small and trade.
Or even better, just ignore it, regardless of price.
[NOTE: If you still just trade tokens, even when you believe they have all 3 qualities, don't be surprised if good founders don't give a shit about what you want. You are just not relevant to what they are building.]
Veil Cash turns 1 today.
We launched with a simple belief: privacy should be normalised and easy to use, while remaining compliant.
We’re still early.
And the work continues to bring privacy to @base
Thank you to everyone building, testing, questioning, and using Veil.

Some Things We’ve Learned:
💡 Tokens can be powerful positive-sum incentive tools when designed with intention and used with transparency.
💡 Community matters more than you think.
💡 Revenue-share staking is a strong alignment mechanism and token sink, even without lockups.
💡 Building with a live, liquid token (and all the macro noise that comes with it) is not for the faint of heart, but it’s worth it.
💡 There’s huge pent-up demand from founders and creators for turnkey onchain distribution on Farcaster and Base App.
With BETR Labs, @netnose, @burrrrrberry and I are now building directly on these lessons and using BETRMINT’s proven distribution engine (plus a few new experiments 👀) to inform what we’re cooking next. 👨🍳
More to come soon, but let’s just say that 2025 has been a movie and we want to make sure 2026 is going to be even BETR!
You keep on spinning, we'll keep on shipping!
