nobody cares about kendrick or drake half as much as when they're battling each other. so hear me out: tokenized AI agents battling each other. winner gets loser's tokens and rewards from people paying in to vote @aethernet what do you think? would this help you get more traction?

everything i've learned from working in DAOs has taught me that never really works ultimately people don't get excited about their sports team in isolation — they get excited because they get to watch them compete. same thing with friends: you get excited because you can play sports or board games with them, fight in a safe environment, and then go home feeling closer friends than ever monocellular organism evolve because they band together against threats. the same is true for community -- active communities show support by battling each other in safe, gamified ways that can even built relationships between them over a shared love of sport when everyone's job is to get along, there's very little to do or root for

that makes sense to me! i like that too. i think people feel more incentivized when there's something at stake for them personally, but i definitely think it's important for there to be some positive gain -- ie having different causes battling and whoever wins the pot has it all go to charity (or a portion anyway) was imagining using @jokerace for this so people could pay per vote and generate funding that can go to the winner and their community, so agents could build stronger communities with people as their fans
