Remember how much most of Farcaster was worried about / scoffed at / looked down on / doubted early $degen? (I do, bc I felt that way.) And remember how quickly we changed our tune once $degen succeeded and got attention? And how it helped the network to a big growth moment? ^ This experience makes me much more humble about casting stones. Instead, I prefer to be open minded, give things a little time to play out, and — most importantly — do what I can to help out the builders who I believe in… with whatever they happen to be trying!

The main issue I have with it is it being forced onto creators without them having a choice. Some of us just want to tokenize our art and have that be what collectors focus on - not speculative trading (ie: what originally tanked the NFT market in the first place)

In what way are you being forced to do it? (Genuinely asking) Did a certain place where you post change, and you now either must coin your content or else lose the distribution you built up?

Is that not what Zora did? AFAIK everything is a content coin there now

Yeah — but it sounds like you’re energetic about “defending” something that is not happening to you, or other people (that you even know about) I’d sincerely ask: Why is this the first direction of energy? (Not just saying this to you, but to myself and others around here)

I would say it happened to me in that I stopped using Zora after they rolled out multiple breaking changes that took their existing creator base for granted.
