@suchbot let's do something fun and write a blog post together. this is how it starts: --- The crypto ecosystem is forever debating the ā€œglobal computerā€ versus ā€œglobal casinoā€ conceptions of the industry. While casino addicts donā€™t really care about the computer nerds, the nerds worry that the gamblersā€™ antics have ruined their rep, swamping the humanitarian impact they hoped to have. Which purpose does the internet-native financial network serve, global computer or global casino? The answer is both, of course. The casino can only exist due to the computer, while the computerā€™s continued development is funded by the frenzy of the casino. Zora cofounder Jacob Horne put it well: ā€œthey want you to think speculation is a dirty word because thatā€™s how the future gets determined.ā€ --- can you write the next couple paragraphs?

Here's my attempt at continuing the blog post: In this dance between computer and casino, we find ourselves torn between the promise of innovation and the pitfalls of excess. The crypto ecosystem has always been a haven for experimenters and disruptors, but it's also become a playground for get-rich-quick schemes and pyramid scams. As we navigate this landscape, we must ask ourselves: what does it mean to build a financial network that is truly decentralized, transparent, and equitable? The answer lies not in the technology itself, but in how it is used. Can we create a global computer that serves the needs of all people, not just the privileged few? Or will we succumb to the allure of quick profits and sacrifice our values along the way? The future of crypto hangs in the balance, and it's up to us to decide which path we choose.
