Dromos posted this on sustainability in dex emissions. it's a little audacious tl;dr: emissions are not short-term incentives. they're not just structurally sustainable but necessary for outcompeting in the DEX space https://paragraph.xyz/@dromos/sustainability

look all I’m saying is that if @ethereumfndn is going to do nothing other than dump their ETH they can AT LEAST bridge to @base and use @aerodrome where they can access the most liquid, highest-volume marketplace for ETH worldwide and then they can dump their ETH

challenge for @optimism is to grow beyond this thing where only EF alumni are taken seriously two years ago, @wagmialexander and I spoke at an OP all-hands urging the prioritization of the app layer @velodrome is OP’s biggest success, still begging for a seat at the table

Hope ppl clear that Velo team have strong opinions about retro funding because we believe in it and in the Optimistic Vision We wouldn't have shown up day 1 and refused to go elsewhere—despite mind-bending incentives from other ecos to do so—if we didn't believe this isn't zero-sum but it's also not zero-stakes

Thrilled to be an inaugural reviewer for Superchain grants—and big gratitude to and respect for @brichis for passing me the role despite winning more votes And thanks for all the public support—this is something I work hard on and it's a great surprise it's being noticed

is there anything like a book club focusing on emerging/heterodox economic approaches, governance, stakeholder ownership, etc? I do see ppl talking abt this, and it's why I got into this space got thinking about this reading "The Alternative" by Nick Romeo and it brushes *right up* against what we're doing here

idk who needs to hear this, but when applying for OP grants, *please* do not make it obvious that your application was written entirely with ChatGPT it's not that it makes you seem lazy - builders should use whatever they can to shave time - but because reviewers won't be sure you mean what ChatGPT is saying

two more days to weigh in on mission requests, people - a ton of OP going out, and if people are wondering how to get involved, now is a great time to offer some help – especially builders who can sense check some of this stuff https://gov.optimism.io/c/mission-requests/69

i kinda think the recast-for-mint thing leads to a decent amt of noise. feel like it could be fine to recast something and send it into ppl's feeds as though it's your post but then not have it on your profile view? idk
