This is a most excellent and powerful reminder and deep wisdom.
For the past couple of months I have been deeply disapointed in the direction Web3 is headed. I allowed that to cause a depression in me thus lowering my quality of life.
Then I am reminded to cut 💩🤡s out.
Get myself focused on these principles and keep building my life forwards and upwards! 💯
Hi @stani, when can Gho be used for steaming payments. Can the Sky Aave force be used for a content subscription style payments?
Movie star Hedy Lamarr was a science genius who invented the frequency-hopping spread spectrum technology for missle guidance in WW2. This became the foundation of all our Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS technology used today.
My neighborhood friendly bakery has matcha cinnamon rolls!
@stani, they where asking about you.
One reason it's so hard for creators and consumer crypto to get any real support is due to speculation DeGens and insiders claim they are "Actually Based" with over hyped projects, often promoted by high profile Web3 industry leaders, suck up all the oxygen, time, energy and funds to build shinny expensive toys for wealthy crypto natives. These projects often rug 90% of people involved.
Protocols showered DeGen speculation projects that had a slick pitch deck with fancy tech specs, and To The Moon! Pipe dreams. A ton of these project where only farming Protocol grant progams, Hackathons and Crypto influencers. Soon after they got their grants, TVL, VC raise. They rugged. Delivering no value. Building nothing that would last past the current hype cycle.
These protocols, to support the DeGens and their shinny speculation toys, rejected grant applications of dozens of creators, or folks building apps, gear and services of long term value.
The Protocols, after they got rugged hard by so many piped pipers DeGens farmers, pulled back support from individuals and teams wanting to build on their networks.
These people and teams are not farming, rather building real solutions with long term value get very limited support and scare grants. Same goes for the very creators making excellent content, the same ones that these protocols push hard to onboard on to their platforms to create their content there. For free or maybe earning $100-$300 USD worth per month if they work hard. There is plenty of money for DeGen projects. No money for long term value apps, solutions or creators.
As Friend.Tech rugs every hard and runs off with $44,000,000 USD they famed from users using hype, "based vibes", and industry leaders they roped into the pyramid scheme. Side note: Last August I was given an invite to Friend.Tech it took me 15 minutes of exploring the toy to realize it was a hype farming cash grab game. www.dlnews.com/articles/defi/friend-tech-shuts-down-after-revenue-and-users-plummet/?utm_source=telegram&utm_medium=organic_social&utm_campaign=
One wanders how many apps building long term value and mainstream market onboarding and how many creators could have been supported if DeGen cash grabs like Friend.Tech and many of the grant and hackathon farmers had been passed on in favor of teams that are creating the very products, services and content that Web3 needs to survive past a niche cottege deep internet subculture and mature into a legitimate market economy that can transform several mainstream industries and human society it self? 🤔
