new large-scale study from MSU evaluated need for uniqueness among 1M+ people from 2000 to 2020. findings + commentary: 1. people who took the survey in 2020 report much lower need for uniqueness (top left), meaning more people want to blend in vs. stand out. could be that social media has led to cultural homogenization with the pursuit for virality trumping originality. ultimately, huge arb opportunity if you do want to stand out. 2. the most dramatic difference from 2000 is willingness to defend beliefs publicly (bottom right). this is not surprising given social risk of speaking out has increased (cancel culture, losing a job) and expression of beliefs now seems more about signaling group identity / tribalism (performative). 3. the desire to not always follow the rules had the most variable trend (bottom left; down-up-down-up). researchers have no explanation, but '13-'15 was when twitter, fb, ig started introducing lots of "guidelines" + algo (trends up). '16 was trump, brexit (trends down).

I've found verifications to be a bit limiting as someone who's non-technical. I don't use GitHub and haven't used Linkedin in forever. Think canonical social platforms like Twitter, Instagram, Tiktok would go a long way here. Would also like a more dedicated space to view and explore Trending Tokens beyond pages. If I want to see the most popular tokens on Farcaster over the last 1h, 24h where do I go?

Coming to the realization that stablecoins are crypto's killer use case and it's only a matter of time before every app is pricing things in USDC and not ETH or SOL. Question is who's willing to add extra friction for all their existing crypto-natives in favor something that makes 100x more sense of real people.

Just spent the weekend deep-researching and writing about a relatively arcane topic using ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity side by side. Using multiple LLMs and contrasting responses to weed out the occasional hallucination is a massive accelerator of knowledge. The LLMs even helped me spot a misleading error in one of the authoritative textbooks on the same topic, which was until then my source of truth. Game changer in how I’ll be engaging going forward with topics I want to discover more seriously.

The Pioneer's Dilemma The impossibility of distinguishing true novelty from failed repetition. As an entrepreneur, you can't know whether something failed because it’s fundamentally flawed—or because no one has done it properly, or at all, before.
