Yes. The US loves this. It’s a dream. Meanwhile USD has lost 25% of its purchase power the last 5 years. It’s why inflation-resisting stables are such a massive unlock

every time you type into chatgpt, the server watches, processes, and logs everything you write. deepseek does the same—but on china’s servers. you’re feeding big brother with every datapoint, training it to know you better than you know yourself.

What’s your thesis with all of this? I have to believe that unmatched utility eventually rises to the top as the chaff of copy pasta and vaporware blows away. Products that actually create value for users and make their life easier Rather than just repackaging new ways to extract value from them. Abstracting everything possible is obviously a big UI/UX trend, so Omnichain and chain agnosticism will win It also seems like people still haven’t caught onto how rampant value extraction strategies are as a result of transparent data. Seems like we see a lot of institutional money sideline specifically because they don’t want their proprietary strategies laying out in the open. We’re seeing frontrunning, mev, phishing, and targeted attacks scaling up with AI and agents. So I think private DeFi will start to heat up also. But yeah, this is Max fragmentation. There has to be a consolidation to real products at some point. Thoughts?

How do I create a channel? Shouldn't be that hard but can't seem to figure it out...

Why? Signal is centralized. What he’s talking about - xmtp - is a decentralized (and private) alternative Seems like a lot of people are waking up to the issues of TG right now. Could be a good moment to migrate

Hey, I’m new here. I like Ethereum, L2s, and DeFi. My most spicy take is that using DeFi without privacy is basically public nudity and in 2-3 years, we are all going to wonder why we thought it was normal. Not everyone should see everything. we should all have the right to share what we want with who we want.
