IMO the path higher is going down is too passive. Too much of just sitting back and saying “hey you can come build on top of h”. Higher needs to turn the switch and become aggressive in seeking talent and PAYING for it. I don’t know exactly what the best flow for this is… could be focusing on some listings.. could be focusing on finding accounts on X who have influence. Could be trying to onboard some well known builders to higher… prolly all these need to happen and fast.

https://warpcast.com/martin/0x9d054297 Example here, asking for people to just do this level of work without any pay. Like I get they can hold the token and go do these things to pump their bags but that is a lot of risk without any guarantee of reward. If it was a big opportunity people would be chomping at the bit to lead these roles. We have to do better and aim higher.

I was just thinking similarly, the concept of a "headless brand" souunds good on paper but doesn't translate into an actual functioning brand. If everyone is invited to "just do it" then no one will put their whole weight into growing the brand. Its not scalable right now, we have the web3 tools for it like streaming value in the network through @superfluid and incentivize "doing" but no decision will emerge until someone grabs the point and starts delegating.

Used to think so, but among things it’s building is resilience as a brand and concept. Big things always take time to build

💯 The "create something and others will come & build too" doesn't work. The "give out grants & incentives for people to come" works initially but you don't attract the best & opportunists jump onto the next opportunity. > You gotta ship the foundation - blockchain &or core community > AND you gotta ship the first killer app/initiative yourself > AND you gotta aggressively go for growth, long-term partners Ethereum managed to get buy-in from top people in crypto at the earliest time & always enabled businesses to operate profitably in the eco or benefit from ETH use/alignment. Optimism got big partnership deals recently at a time where all blockchains compete for buy-in from top collaborators. This incl incentives but value is also flowing back to OP & it's now positioned best among l2 clusters. Both parties got talent, negotiated from a position of power. Underdogs gotta work harder, build more, grow more aggressively. Study also Aero or memes like Doge & Bonk. (Deals, attention, ecosystem buy-in)

Talking about the passivity is important and appreciate hearing you and others talk about. I appreciate your example in the comment too. I'll give you another example that has nothing to do with paying from my answer to jihad about onboarding people in 2025. I didn't use the term passivity in my answer, but you'll see the idea. https://warpcast.com/bradq/0x70509ece
