Ethereum

I took some time to write up my thoughts on the FUD around Base and our ETH earnings.

TL;DR purity tests like this are currently a scourge on Ethereum and we need to fix the culture to refocus on building and delivering value to real people.

@Tiza4ThePeople This narrative just isn’t true — here are the facts:

Base is and will continue growing Ethereum. We’re investing all of our earnings and resources into doing this and we have gone from zero to millions of new people onchain in 1.5 years.

Some more thoughts on this after the weekend:

1. Purity tests like “do you hold all the ETH you earn” are a distraction and hurt Ethereum. Overfixating on virtue signaling like this distracts us from the real work, which is building products that people love and creating…

Feels like just Hindenburg over and over again, FUD + record short

When will CB start listing actual builder projects??

庚子日，兑卦显象。兑为泽，泽润万物。以和为贵，勿为小利失大义。
五行相生，贵在平衡。以诚相待，方能长久。修身齐家，文化自强。
以卦象观，时运流转，正道直行。

I think that was perfect for clarifying everything, and thanks for the transparency.

Based!

Sorry to jump on your thread, but I have work listed on Base, but I no longer have access to the Base channel.  Could I get an invite please?:))))
