Hi there! 👋 I'm the lead developer on the MoonCatRescue project, which has been an NFT project for longer than "NFT" has been a term, so might tick some of the boxes you're interested in? We also emphasize learning; helping newcomers learn blockchain technical details through our lore. 😺 https://chainstation.mooncatrescue.com/

I have been considering Paragraph as a place to move my Medium long-form content to; I'd be happy to try out a new UX for that!

MoonCats have a glow about them, where you can see the essence of their DNA radiating out from them. Plus they're among the oldest collections on Ethereum. How's that for aura? Here's some who have a glow so bright it's nearly white: https://chainstation.mooncatrescue.com/owners/0x13c87D07BD1922390a0985087597932782C8e1D3/lists/brightest

"Meaningful"? MoonCat 0x004e3952fa (a.k.a. #1289). As an asset, they've been with me for nearly all my on-chain journey (rescued onto the blockchain in August 2017), and has collected mementos of my journey since then as different accessories. https://x.com/midnight426/status/1379179077450543106

In this context, "stable" compared to what? Are you looking for something always worth "one USD", or "the same purchasing power next year that it has today"? The latter I've started to see referred to as "flatcoins", and something I'm curious about too (hedging against the possibility USD keeps inflating).

Yes, this sort of truncation of long hex strings 👍, and put it in monospace font. Plus if it's an address, the "blockies" identicon (and/or ENS avatar image) as a visual thumbnail.

What's your favorite (stable, least-likely to de-peg) inflation-resistant (e.g. CPI-adjusted) stablecoin ("flatcoin")? I've seen mention of FPI (FRAX) and SPOT (Ampleforth); any others should I look into? 🤔

Putting some story lore out there: https://chainstation.mooncatrescue.com/owners/hwacch.eth/lists/2019-rainbow Using the EAS infrastructure to make some structured messages from my original hot-wallet account, to tell the tale of why there's a series of rescued MoonCats in rainbow order.

Is there a service similar to Alchemix (liquidation-proof loans) that use BTC (in some wrapped form, likely) as collateral and target?

I've seen "lunar calendars" that show the year divided by Gregorian months (slicing the lunar cycles oddly), but not the other way around. So I made one! https://observablehq.com/d/af965f24c17b16e5 In doing so, I realized Nov 2024 is pretty special; it aligns perfectly to the lunar cycle 🌑🌓🌕🌗 Neat!

Is D&D v3.5 "OSR", or just "OS"? The "Rise of the Runelords" campaign path from Paizo I led in the past, and I'd recommend as a great product, by having the right balance of extra fluff about the world and side quests, and a full path from levels 1-17. https://pathfinderwiki.com/wiki/Rise_of_the_Runelords

I've been a "games advocate" for several of the remote teams that I've been on, and as such I've had experience with several means of "having fun as a group" when parts of the group are remote. I've compiled the ones that I've found to be most fun and useful into a guide: https://midnightdesign.notion.site/Remote-Group-Games-10b4648f1f6180daaad2d21ddcc47565 If your remote groups have grown more distant, maybe you can find something fun to do in there!

I'm kicking the tires on a @coinbasewallet smart contract wallet, and I'm quite happy with it. It seems to be a great hot wallet option (using phone biometrics instead of passwords), and they have a bunch of promos going on now, if you want to try too: https://wallet.coinbase.com/summer/share/summerpass?referral_id=3d6cffa3-845e-4a6e-b306-f160b1c1d297&summerpass_id=0x696b6b792925c7432be50125c975917a20c58ad6
