I respect that you recognize the gravity of incentives. I wouldn't rush into anything either! Also, curious to crack open that reputation wound if you're ever interested!

It is very challenging to build a new community and cultural behavior like reframing. I think it's a really cool idea, and could totally take off! I think this could be a fun application of @givebot to give onchain reputation to ppl for engaging in this kind of thinking and referring it back to the channel to seed the feed with curated discourse.

I agree with that. Most of my vehicles I've had for over a decade and done all the maintenance myself, and I absolutely think the personalization motivates me to put in the effort. Most gear heads I know are that way, tbh! Similar for computers I've built.

Haha yeah same, actually. I don't actively personify everything by consciously talking to it like a person, but most everything has a name! Interesting, never took note of that!

I greatly appreciate that you see the value in open data creating this opportunity space! - We have to have a voice in what these screens throw in front of us - This is the appropriate place to focus on user agency: choosing what/how/when we are exposed to information. This seems more empowering to express the best versions of ourselves when we choose to act. Not just the most vulnerable versions of ourselves that are most easily exploited.

This comment exists within the larger context of my personal focus on helping elevate the community experience on Warpcast, primarily through deepening discussions and increasing knowledge sharing. So the imposition of values isn't on memecoins, but on the focus of Warpcast development and the introduction of features that prioritize memecoins over conversation and knowledge. I have no problems with memecoins being what they are. I have a problem with the narrative that memecoins are funding developers to build things that are a net positive for the Warpcast ecosystem and long term sustainable growth.

Fair enough I suspect that’s why we have so much mental illness right now, everyone is exhausted trying to keep up, while supply side gaslights them into “just be more agentic”

Asking developers to take responsibility for the behaviors their creations incentivize is apparently the crazed talk of irrational lunatics.

This is called misdirection. Classic bi-partisan tactics to keep us arguing about questions that don't have answers (likely unintentional here). The issue isn't whether memecoins are good or bad. That's a moral question that is completely subjective and highly variable based on context. Without a clear context, it's easy to argue either side with no possibility of resolution. The important question is whether the mechanisms with which memecoins are being presented to people is accurately representing what they are and if the focus on this kind of trading activity is actually promoting positive growth that is setting us up for long term sustainability vs creating another way to extract value from an uninformed retail market.

*anti-rivalrous* Resources that gain value every time they are used. Unlike rivalrous goods (depleted) or non-rivalrous goods (unaffected), the utility of anti-rivalrous goods expands with network effects. Examples include knowledge, open source software, and social networks.

I agree! I'm focusing on the narrative side right now, I think we need a new story to tell to reinvigorate a movement towards all the projects and builders who aren't playing the same old games with a new twist.

Solid start to a framework. I'm intrigued! I've seen similar ideas around taxed entrance/exit, but nothing that has resonated fully. I'm interested in exploring this, however, so I'll take a closer look if there's more to dig into already!

Very well articulated criticism of why meme coins are not an "investment vehicle" to support early dev projects. You have to look at the power dynamics to fully grok it: - platform is collecting most of the trading fees - asymmetric information benefits extractive trading - "investors" have zero rights, guarantees, or protections - projects that are better at stimulating drama that causes trading generate more revenue than projects that just focus on heads down grinding - zero revenue potential for the meme tokenomics means inevitably no return on investment unless you do extractive trading - the more committed you are to helping the project the more likely you are to end up dumped on in the end The system is designed to make sure the system profits. Just like any good casino, the house always wins.
