first glance — switch 2 > launch day game catalog is very impressive; many remakes & new games > mouse feature is interesting, tho i’m not sure how many people will want to sit on their couch with a dinner tray > camera is kind of whatever, but certainly positive, esp with that software > game upgrade packages better be cheap & maybe a few made free; plus making the system tutorial a paid add-on game is heinous behavior > classic titles is sweet & should’ve been there for many years now > dual device use case is really neat; eg., use phone as in-game map/rolodex > magnetic remote connection & handheld support bracket are very nice > bigger, better screen is expected > ancillaries are cool; gc & power controllers look clean; would’ve liked a gun/bow/glasses; still very limited augmented features

guys, my therapist likes to butter me up by constantly comparing me to the “smartest client she’s ever worked with” she loves to tell me how he went to cornell & did his post-grad at harvard, but here’s the thing: he’s 56, lives alone & waits tables at a diner now tell me: what, on gods green earth, am i supposed to do with this information?

i was thinking about this yesterday & concluded that when millennials end a text with “lol” they mean one of three things: > “what are we even doing?” > “it’s not that serious” > “you’re/i’m an idiot”

i don’t really know what to make of $drb wrt a thesis, for one, i don’t expect elon to talk about a coin that was effectively incubated on a rival platform i don’t care how big the wallet gets, elon leaned into doge early & added wallets to x’s roadmap; he understands crypto enough to want a piece so if he even cares enough to understand clanker/bankr, he’s more likely to backdoor the wallet & send the funds to a more x native token, keeping fees on x or via deploying a launcher further, he’ll likely use a token to incentivize the x wallet when that time comes & he’s not gonna leave a free $1m+ onchain sitting around that’s, of course, assuming he does anything with it—so, overall, just seems unlikely that he’s going to pump drb that’s not to say coinbase or farcaster couldn’t lean into it wrt cb, a listing doesn’t seem feasible given the above but there might be a way to push base further into elon’s head/x wrt fc, there’s probably something re an x/warplet ua activation

coinbase should ease uncertainty here: clanker listing update & team feature, pull another update fwd at corporate or base, noise on bankr or drb, eco builder highlights, fc/cbw update, earnings call mention, anything that leverages distribution… no more “base is for everyone” & “long-term plans” casts/tweets, we need you to step up for the builders here celebrity attention on bankr uncapitalized; attention fizzle in this market is unacceptable: where are we? builders heads down; sentiment slowly shifting positive here: ease the fear or lose liquidity; low hanging fruit cannot go uneaten industry in shambles while this place feels positive: now is the time to control the narrative & siphon attention we need leaders to lead; we need to be focused on the right teams & right projects & we need to be doing everything we can to instill market confidence—it needs to come top-down proper cadence, pom-pom’s in-hand, singing from the rafters—now is the time we gobble market share
