i don’t really know what to make of $drb wrt a thesis, for one, i don’t expect elon to talk about a coin that was effectively incubated on a rival platform i don’t care how big the wallet gets, elon leaned into doge early & added wallets to x’s roadmap; he understands crypto enough to want a piece so if he even cares enough to understand clanker/bankr, he’s more likely to backdoor the wallet & send the funds to a more x native token, keeping fees on x or via deploying a launcher further, he’ll likely use a token to incentivize the x wallet when that time comes & he’s not gonna leave a free $1m+ onchain sitting around that’s, of course, assuming he does anything with it—so, overall, just seems unlikely that he’s going to pump drb that’s not to say coinbase or farcaster couldn’t lean into it wrt cb, a listing doesn’t seem feasible given the above but there might be a way to push base further into elon’s head/x wrt fc, there’s probably something re an x/warplet ua activation

Not sure why CB wouldn't list it. If Elon wants to rug it that's on him, I say Base needs to push it immediately to capitalize on attention and if it works, it wouldn't matter if X dumped that would just give it better distribution.

depends on how much he wants to push into crypto if he has an ambitions here, he’s more likely to drain the wallet quietly while simultaneously pushing his own thing look at how he’s bridged tesla funding; selling flame throwers & other dumb shit the second he sees the fees & wallet (if he hasn’t already), he’s going to say “why can’t we do this?” kind of a risk of cb; dude is too volatile i feel like you can’t really go after elon with a token, it needs to be infrastructure tied into his platform & even then, he’s probably more likely to try an build a worse version himself
