Ethereum

the #1 thing that @solana has right now over @ethereum is people with money who are willing to deploy in a risk forward way at the edge and thereby push forward innovation. 

this is how innovation happens — but it's often messy in a way that can turn folks off (eg it's "just speculation"). but the lack of this means less capital bandwidth for ideas and experiments to both get funding and to break through into virality via price. memes and the innovation downstream of them are a prime example of this. 

if @ethereum wants to succeed, this needs to change — and we are seeing signs of it on @base, but it's still early and  we need a lot more help. 

so let this be a call to action: if you are someone who believes in Ethereum, holds significant amounts of ETH, and wants the economy to grow, now is the time to step up.. 

if this is you, please DM or shoot me an email at jesse@base.org. will be coming up with a plan in the new year.

he’s right. solana still has that nu money energy and many old ETH whales have checked out. 

need some new wealth creation events

it’s a tough sell trying to get old school ETH whales to check back into game, wouldn’t have the same energy anyway. wouldn’t depend on this strat

building /juicebox | product marketing & growth | prev. NounsDAO, RAW DAO | learning to code

ETH whales too busy selling every single 0.25% pump to invest in ecosystem plays

🎩 first, but I like being part of this experiment that is the Farcaster network. 

maybe some fat airdrops are the answer then? 

if we got a small group on here, for example, grinding day by day, throw some bones out there and see what happens.

degen did a lot of good but I think a most people who really made good money on degen came from outside the ecosystem. most here sold very early

then Base needs it's own massive new wealth creation

we saw a glimpse of it when degen did what it did, and i think that was just a prelude since i think that was mostly a rotation, patience and optimism required tho

higher

phantom wallet adding base is a bullish sign tho, but still far
