one of the problems with social tokens is that you cannot meaningfully invest in someone for the long run because of the product risk.

if the product doesn't work out, the person you invested in will just move to the next new thing that creates a new token for them until we finally have a winner in the space

think every appcoin should do a commitment prelaunch to manage expectations for how long team is committed to working on it, even if things go poorly

Even in the case of no team allocation of tokens this feels reasonable

agree, until thats done i dont think anyone should be suprised at the swings or sell offs from participants. easier to launch; easier to decomission; no skin in the game. its a feature and design choice, but i think app coins should lean to what you're saying, ideally w/ vesting and allocation.

i'd hold those tokens.

i think team allocation is very important for partnerships, hiring, marketing and fully aligned with investors for app coins.

ya, did you read what i said differently?

Isn’t that what lock ups were intended to be? Team working on it for at least that long?
