The biggest meta of 2024 has absolutely been memecoins in web3. Some people are fans. Other people aren't. 

What I chose to write about for CoinDesk on this one is that regardless of where you stand on memecoins, they're simply not easy money. Especially easy as the way people are made to believe when they think about trading them.

Unlike other critics of memecoins, I'm absolutely in favor of people trading them as much as they'd like, and I do believe if you're good about them, they do seem like the easiest way to generate large amounts of personal capital very quickly. 

In light of all the high FDV, low float infra tokens that have launched this year at bloated valuations that leave no upside for retail, it only made sense that memecoins would take off. A place where retail could earn double and triple digit on their money in a short period of time.

In the past week and a half there's been so many speculations as to what happened with Haliey Welch aka Hawk Tuah and $HAWK. 

From the moment the token launched, multiple things just didn't seem to add up to me. Instead of being just another account on here speculating for engagement farming though, I decided to see if I could actually tell the story with CoinDesk.

That evening I reached out to overHere, and put together a story as to what happened without speculating too much either. 

Let me know your thoughts!

Nouns

My focus for Nouns over the next 12 months is to develop sponsored props and co-funding with strategic partners, brands, local governments, and charities.

Brands and sponsors can play a crucial role in Nouns props, not only offsetting treasury costs but also significantly amplifying the impact of our initiatives. Additionally, co-branded events, where the Nouns brand + tech are activated and funded in partnership, will push the boundaries of what's possible in the onchain space.

From our discussions with Web2 partners, there's a strong desire to build onchain programs and partnerships. Yet, many need help finding the right talent. Nouns, alongside established and legacy brands, can step in to bridge this gap. By working together, onchain and in the public eye, we can tap into established brands and audiences, giving our partners the best chance to succeed onchain.

If there’s someone who can get this done it’s definitely Frankie

It doesn’t sound or look safe to be outside right now. I wonder how long it takes for things to be up and running again?

How are people about these Future & Metro Boomin albums? I still haven’t listened to either one.

I’ve been so uninspired by drops for a while 😭. No desire to buy anything right now.

Anyone had burgers at The Hub in Queens before? Hearing it’s goated.
