I don't have high expectations, but if Solana wants to shine - then running $SKR higher is the best bet they can make..
Wanna know why I aped it today?

In today's lackluster environment of tokens without any holder incentive.
Are there actually any projects sharing their company revenue with token holders?
Some actually do. Take @seecoin_io for example:
Real company revenue, real advertisers, and verified user attention.
Its token holders that stake enough long term earn a % of platform revenue.
A trend I would like to see continue in crypto imo.

The most dangerous part of AI might not be the fact that it hallucinates — making up its own version of the truth — but that it ceaselessly agrees with users’ version of the truth.
A recent study by researchers found that AI models are 50% more sycophantic than humans. Worse, the flattery made participants less likely to admit they were wrong — even when confronted with evidence they were wrong.
We know humans are hard-wired for approval. We seek out AI responses that agree with us, which AI in turn is incentivized to offer. It’s a perpetual motion flattery machine.
Part of the solution is to acknowledge that yes, human interactions come with friction. But friction is a feature, not a bug. And yet, the assumption built into our tech ecosystems is to smooth out every experience.
Learning to live alongside other people — with all the friction that entails — is how we grow and evolve. Otherwise, life becomes like going to a gym with no weights. Easy and effortless but what’s the point?
When we acknowledge, celebrate and nourish the full range of our humanity, we’re less vulnerable to those — humans and machines — who would exploit it. What’s more, we get to grow and evolve — and that is something actually deserving of praise.

Before pump fun was invented, myself and my co-founders tried building a ton of different ideas. Consumer, DeFi, SocialFi, NFTs - none of it worked.
One of the biggest problems we had (other than the fact that our solutions didn’t really solve anyone’s problems) is that we found it really difficult to get the products in front of users. Trying to get in touch with the right kinds of users was massively laborious.
Distribution was such a huge challenge for us that one of my only New Year’s resolutions EVER was to get 10k followers on X in 2024.
Only a few months after pump fun was launched, it clicked. Projects began launching tokens because they knew that 1) users loved buying into fresh ideas they thought had a chance of becoming successful and 2) there were millions of those kinds of people, which could become potential users and investors. Instant liquidity meant that you can get funded too.
This eventually snowballed into onchain AI season, which showed builders and traders alike how big this opportunity - tokenizing early stage projects - could become. The numerous onchain metas we’ve seen since shows that the demand for good founders by traders and long-term allocators continues to be incredibly high, no matter the market conditions.
Pump fun’s 3rd year will be all about optimizing our existing ecosystem while trying to expand it with big bets, such as betting on the startup ecosystem via initiatives like Pump Fund and the Build in Public Hackathon.
