What ever happened to the ascii nouns prop? Also supportive of the above but worried about fracture from a new token And the proportional voting power of ascii nouns is attractive, feels like a better coin overall Just not sure what the deal is, haven’t heard anything in a minute cc @wylin

. @martin would make a great EIR at some venture firm. One of the best product minds in crypto -- some firm should pay him to hack on all of these ideas and keep some of that alpha in house (idk if thats what EIRs do but it kinda seems like it)

I like chris but this is the sort of self-referential "making nouns stuff for nouners" that I think is never worth funding

Other side of the coin is many great businesses could stay at $5m/yr and be great outcome for a small team, but venture pressure leads to trying to force growth to the next scale and kills the company A 5m/yr business run with a couple of your close friends feels like the dream honestly, no need to hyperscale everything

They want to attract institutional money by doing good. Anything deemed “for profit” has apparently deeply harmed nouns ability to frame itself as a nonprofit (fork is most notable example) You could maybe argue that profit would feed back to protocol/treasury only so token holders are not directly profiting. Not sure In general though a token launcher feels like the antithesis of what nouns aims to be… If the goal (of nouns) is to show the world crypto can be used for good, it’s incompatible to then go and fund what everyone else believes crypto is for… gambling, casino, memes etc

hey olli any update on this? what if the first comment in a new thread comes from the camp warpcast account and gives a bit of context so people understand the thread and aren't thrown off by the empty content or even just ditching fid-2 and creating a new account like "camp-comms" and if someone comments with wc on camp for the first time, it creates a cast from "camp-comms" with a bit of context, then that persons reply is a reply to the cast from camp-comms. The point is for the camp-comms first post to give a sentence or two of context on what the person is commenting on

Yea exactly right. For example… “clanker” — you just tell it all of the details of a coin and it launches it. Maybe it’s just a more convenient API? But it’s not like a sentient being or anything. Once the shiny new feeling wears off nobody will care
