Based Studio Portfolio Highlights 2024

Thread 🧵

Founders

A token can be a great way to bootstrap a project especially if you've set up incentives to align with users!

It's been a month since launching /stokefire and we've generated $48k in rewards for players and I've made $48k in revenue all from fees.

Best part is these rewards are in ETH and not in our unstable but growing token.

It's setup so I make money when players make money and vice versa.

What a lot of teams get wrong is their pay day only comes when they sell the token which is in direct conflict with what's good for holders.

Whereas for me, I'm incentivized to make a good game and the payout is made slowly overtime only if I fulfill that promise. 🔥

want to highlight what Noah have been and keeps on building

most game devs stuck in ad maximizing era 

not many devs are onchain at all and while our community is focused on core UX issues this way of doing things also helps people learn more about how blockchains work

what if I train a based design agent that can see images to help builders out with product thinking, design improvements, asking important questions they may not be thinking about etc

seems like can be a win win

Improved scaling here if you seen the previous one

Thoughts on the styling?

@baseddesigner.eth i see you building. your onchain reputation speaks volumes

Base

we need more onchain. 

more ideas
more apps
more builders
more experimenters
more art
more memes
more music
more everything 

we are entering the acceleration phase of the onchain economy.

Gaming

one thing steam especially nailed is the "X hrs on record"

since they can track and expose this information

I wonder if something like this can be used more in our onchain products

this could be the next unlock in crypto ux

directly exposing the advantage of a blockchain - keeping track of things

as we're moving towards tight communities of members around here, I thought it'd be fun to have live typing indicator for the cast's replies

turns out I, seemingly suddenly, currently have:
- 4 ongoing projects with different priorities
- 4 hot projects to get into
- 2+ of my own ideas to visualize

7 of these are either base or farcaster related

gonna end 2024 like no other year before in my life

europoooooor

many times ever since I was finishing high school I find myself thinking about things around me, if they are supposed to be like that and first getting to the bottom of why are they like that

this is what got me into product design and thinking

this is what got me to move abroad by the age of 21

this is what makes me now dislike so many things in /europoooooor

just think about how crazy it is that Singapore and El Salvador are both in top 10 safest countries today and no european country can challenge those... but that's a separate topic

nouns-retro

I suggest a redesign

I think there's a high, long term value in doing so, as the project have proven it's effectiveness and still attracts new rounds ~6 months after launch

I went over profile page already, thread 🧵

Redesigned rounds.wtf this week, starting with the profile page, check out the thread.
