I still think memecoins are the most organic way to build onchain communities

incentivizing things @ poidh.xyz - come chill /poidh + follow @poidhbot

they’re fun but what if we just grew communities intentionally 

and the economic tools needed emerged organically

hear you, but there are a handful of examples like doge. i think we also have to be honest now about how decentralised memes or anything in the space is anyway (and if anyone still cares)

i do care and i root for a future of sufficiently decentralised community led projects where people organically come together to grow value and build economic systems if needed vs. the speculative incentive being the raison d’être

things that are done intentionally have centralized power structures that degrade easily 

memecoins usually speedrun decentralization with no one in charge, community has to quickly pull together on their own or it dies

most fail, but the ones that survive are uniquely strong

see Dogecoin being the only major coin to ever make a higher high vs Bitcoin
