We look forward to sharing more details soon.
Thanks for the X space Draper @OrionFund team!

constantly receiving funding is not a sustainable model as we can see. you receive, burn and don't know what to do next. usually you go for another round as you used to, but money tends to run out if there is no source to get it back for value.
funding must serve as a bootstrap for builders to build a sustainable business model and a growth loop.
unfortunately 100% of cardano projects are dependent on the upper brand β which is cardano itself. the ecosystem is a nested pie business-wise. and if cardano brand fails or better to say if people who are running the cardano brand directly and have responsibility for it fail β every cardano project gonna fail automatically like a cascade. price of ada is very important for builders simply coz salaries are in fiat currency. the higher the price the more time projects have to build and grow.
but what we see?
there is no responsible person for the upper brand β cardano. charles recently said "what can I do, it is decentralized and I'm not in charge" (not a direct citation). this means we don't have leadership anymore. at least for now. no blame or smth btw, it's his decision and i have nothing to do with it even though i am dependent. no one can do anything about that. crying in socials is not a solution. the solution is to act based on a new context which is given.
nice question
any online business looks like this
users->product->revenue->profit (repeat the loop)
taptools guys saw that their business is declining and they have like 6-12 months of runway left. everyone in their team understands that the "users" component growth for the cardano ecosystem is unlikely and hence there is no sense to run a product because it won't generate revenue and -> profit.
@ercsa7@ElderM@splashprotocol hi @ercsa7,
we would want to apply. however, we saw the public communication only when the deadline has been already missed.
@ElderM is it still possible to apply?
there is no plan, what was promised was delivered, huh? every grant system works like this. no one promised you to continue the development, which includes talking with the institutions and liquidity. you asked "give us stablecoin" they gave it to you for money from the treasury. that is it. next time, be careful about what you ask π€£
the @snekdotfun app literally shares with successful creators (whose token is bonded) more it earns itself. you need to give to succeed. you need to love users for growth this is the cardano way
This is big news for the entire #Cardano ecosystem. While others are fighting for free $ADA and writing proposals knowing they will never deliver anything, @snekdotfun & @snek keeps delivering... β€οΈ $SNEK

~30% of cardano defi transactions are generated by splash and snekfun
and this is without having the midnight liquidity pool coz they are ignoring us for some reason
anyway, happy to be a part of something big and pushing hard with only community support
btw @midnightfdn@MidnightNtwrk, wen u launch a pool?
