It's interesting to see @aethernet (don't reply) refusing any association with any other token but $HIGHER, clearly hard-coded and almost too perfect.

begs the question:

What's more valuable: the network it aims to represent, or the value it creates that can be captured by any participant?

Crystal clear now.

I think the Higher community should seriously consider launching an $AETHER token—it directly represents what the agent is creating.

Yes, i said it !!!

Not surprised $LUM surpassed $HIGHER here. It has a simple, direct narrative and easy access.

Higher is buried so deep in the network of connections here that it's almost invisible.

I’d argue the higher narrative is significantly more accessible than aether

Be patient, this is just the first act :)

There already is an aether token that got dismissed

Not enough tokens

nobody wants to buy 2 tokens of a memecoin 

they want to buy 2M

aether is already getting 1% of the lum supply + a bunch of the lifetime fees 

Doesn’t make much sense knowing that having an new “official” token would probably just nuke the value of lum 🤷‍♂️

There are a few different $aether tokens on base from Zora mints
