Great answers on why Farcaster > X. In summary: - Kind and thoughtful community—people are supportive, friendly, and engage meaningfully. - Positive vibes—users feel better after using Farcaster, unlike X, which often leaves them feeling worse. - Crypto-native features—wallet integrations, mini-apps, and on-chain connectivity. - Better signal-to-noise ratio—content is more focused, with less clutter and speculation. - Earning opportunities—airdrops, rewards, and incentives for being active. - Less toxicity—fewer trolls, negativity, and unhealthy content compared to X. - Customizable feeds and channels—users can tailor their experience to their interests. - Ethical alignment—Farcaster feels more aligned with crypto values, while X is seen as supporting unethical leadership. - Niche communities—focused on photography, technical discussions, and long-term crypto building. - Interactive and fun features—mini-games, frames, and a clean, ad-free interface.

Ethereum needs a community-driven L2. An L2 that mirrors Ethereum L1's values of fairness, decentralization, and value accrual to ETH. All current corporate L2s fall short and will probably never align with Ethereum, as their incentive structures differ. https://x.com/DefiIgnas/status/1879131874133467304

ETH used to a BTC beta play: If BTC goes up, ETH goes higher. If BTC dumps, ETH goes lower. But now, BTC goes up while ETH is flat. A few major changes happened: • ETH has its own DeFi, NFT, & L2 ecosystems, valuing on their merits • Staking adds yield, shifting it from pure speculation. • BTC = "digital gold"; ETH = "tech platform." Different narratives, different flows. • ETH now trades on innovation, not BTC’s price moves. But ETH innovation, at least on the L1 seems stagnant and competitors are getting stronger. Hopefully, ETFs can push us out of this price misery.

Biggest tax lie is that flat % tax rate is not progressive. At 10% if you earn 1k usd you pay 100 usd. If you earn 10k you pay 1&. It’s progressive.

The banks in UK don't allow you to buy crypto. Or they put limits up to 10k GBP per month. Is it a free country?
