I’m not a lawyer but decentralizing it — so it’s not company-backed — seems like the only way.

I'm not a lawyer, but a token can change categories if the facts change.

What’s the difference between ETH, FTT, USDC, TRUMP and $APPL? And how do those differ from airline miles or a CryptoPunk? Why does it even matter? Today, @eddy, @skominers, and I published two articles classifying tokens based on their source of value. 👇

In that case, if the value is coming from a company-controlled system, sounds like a Company-backed Token.

It's possible for something to call itself a memecoin but for that to be a thin veneer over being a Company-backed token. Brand is really important but I think of network design as the Big One

Here's another version of the chart I like. Network tokens are great — it's the thing that excites me most about crypto. Arcade tokens are imo very underexplored ($FLY is a new, developing example).

Yeah this would be a memecoin masquerading as an Asset-backed token. Which is, at best, not a great user experience.

I don't think simply calling it a memecoin makes it one, but there are definitely ways that specific token categorizations could be expressed onchain. This essentially already exists with tokens that you need KYC to buy or sell.

There are nuances but I don't think it's that esoteric. And there are a bunch of tokens that are memecoins — and a bunch of tokens that call themselves memecoins that are definitely Company-backed!

The industry is mature enough that we can categorize tokens based on their legal, economic, and technical properties. It shouldn't be surprising that not all tokens have the same legal status or long term economic prospects! https://a16zcrypto.com/posts/article/defining-tokens/

Today we're coming out of stealth and announcing a $10M fundraise to accelerate Open Source Capitalism. Open Source is civilization's greatest accomplishment. Where corporations fail to innovate as they scale, Open Source leads the frontier. All of the best technologies, from databases and web frameworks to cryptography and game engines, are created in the open. Software with zero-cost replication allowed massive teams to collaborate on the same technical artifacts. Open Source permeated the barriers between corps and allowed humanity's greatest minds to work on shared technical foundations. But funding Open Source has been a perennial challenge. Tragedy of the commons this, tragedy of the commons that. While we applaud the push to increase altruism directed at Open Source, banking on goodwill isn't our idea of a prosperous future.

there’s a huge opportunity for someone to build a restaurant review-focused client on Farcaster🍽️🍽️ i’m top 11k in the world on Beli and don’t own any of my content so i’d be awfully upset if my 400+ very detailed reviews of all the places I’ve eaten were to disappear suddenly for some reason Blackbird guest profiles could be linked to Farcaster IDs and users could add context to each restaurant visit on FC (what they ate, who they went with) users would build a reputation score on the app for check-ins and restaurants could even reward users with $FLY for making awesome content you could have restaurant or city specific channels and it’d be easier easier to share or transact reservations in the feed

We were in the previous cohort and had a great time. Honestly watching @eddy go off on protocol design and be able to ask him questions is enough reason to apply. @jasonr is a G and an operator you will learn a lot from. Happy to answer any questions anyone may have 🫡
