Been test driving the Zora app for the last 24 hours. Some thoughts:

1. They’re memecoins. It says “Buy”, shows the price very clearly, along with number of holders and price trend. There is no intellectually honest way to say these aren’t memecoins. Every time I buy one my instinct is to make a profit on it and that shapes my whole experience of the app.

2. The overall app design is very slick, and they implemented crypto payments better than anyone I’ve seen. I was off and running within 2 minutes.

3. There are ways this could be a very cool, non-speculative app. There’s a lot of art on there, what if when I bought a post it shipped a print of that piece to my house? What if instead of buying the post, I could hire the artist/designer? I’m sure there are plenty of other ideas. Would love to see the team get more creative with the use case.
