touching down in the US after 21 days of based around the world — want to share some quick reflections:

1. builder energy has 10x'd in the last year. in every country we touched down in — kenya, india, thailand, singapore, malaysia, philippines — hundreds of builders showed up to build the future. my mind is blown and i feel so grateful. thank you all for showing up to build with us.
2. base culture is attracting world-class leaders. in every country, people are showing up to build a global onchain economy and doing it in a based way. this is proving to be a filter for incredible talent: folks who are hard working, visionary, creative, optimistic, and excited to build the future.
3. if we're not on the ground, we're not in the game. we learned so much and made so many important connections being in every country. and it became really obvious how important being there really is. we're going to be 10x'ing our on the ground presence in 2025.

... cont'd in next cast

Huge shout to @jessepollak @aneri and everyone on the @base team. 
Truly doing some incredible work, changing the world one wallet at a time. 

Thank you. 
Stay based.

I read a book from Arnold Schwarzenegger and he said he did the same with bodybuilding basically doing presentations 24/7 all around the world even if it's for only a few people in the room. He was even doing his pitch at a shopping center in Helsinki (Stockmann). There's a few thins about Arnie, but the dedication he put into achieving things is fenomenal, and the book tells a compelling story
