Posit: onchain native is more valuable and important to win than things like stocks. 

There will be many competing stock coins for the same stock. 

But being the point of origin for a cryptonative thing means it’s harder for a competing token to exist for the exact same thing.

Example: there could be many competing stock coins for a company, but probably only one memecoin.

As more and more at scale platforms (that already have demand) launch their own chains, the competitive frontier is issuance. 

Win the supply to lock in the demand (and liquidity etc)

The @zora creator flywheel in action. 

$tinysoulgame made a viral post, and since it’s paired in their coin it it shot them up to number #5 on the leaderboard.

Two updates: 

1. You can easily claim your vested creator coin (you earn 50% of the total supply over 5 years) 

2. You can send any coin from your Zora smart wallet

This means you can easily send your creator coin to your Farcaster Wallet and set up @noiceapp tips

I love spam posting all my midjourney video experiments and propaganda and random stuff, laughing that it makes 1 billion coins everytime no matter how stupid of stuff i put on, and not feeling punished for it

I love buying other creators posts 

I love buying other creators coins with my posts and others posts

I love the team because they really do listen and trying to think outside established paradigms while building ways to relate it to make it seem familiar enough to dive in

After years with z o r a I feel now is just the beginning of what they were really trying to build and I'm excited to be along for the ride 🫡 @incarterseyes.eth @zakkrevitt.eth @jacob 🖤

Expand the market by expanding the number of markets

There's a little degen in everyone.

Tokenizing more things means meeting more people where they are at with their interests and what they believe in.

As an investor or trader, I think about tokens relative to their market potential

It's interesting to see @zora create a hierarchy of markets in the way they've integrated tokens into their platform.  

In order of market potential it's Platform > Creator > Content

I will likely value a platform token ($ZORA) more than I will a creator token on the platform ($JACOB)

Taking it one step further, I will likely value a creator token ($JACOB) more than a content token ($HORSE)

The market for a platform is likely larger than the market for a creator.  The market for a creator is likely larger than a market for a piece of content.  

There'll likely be a few exceptions but generally this is the way I think about it.

With this in mind, I think it's generally smart to size your investments according to market potential of a particular market.  For content, maybe it's worth investing $0.25.  For creators, maybe it's worth investing $10.  For a platform, maybe it's worth investing $100. 

This is an elegant design for connected markets with a platform, creators and content.  

Very interesting experiment that hopes to catalyze a new behavior from creators (tokenizing content) 

Zora's market cap is currently $26M ($85M FDV) but the market potential for a platform to tokenize creators and their content is definitely larger than that.  I'm paying close attention to see if the market potential for creators tokenizing their content grows because I think that if growth of creator markets and content markets picks up then it will all ladder up to $ZORA.

It's a new behavior and

We’re spending a lot of time on TikTok and IG learning how to onboard completely new users to @zora. It’s exciting to be modestly growing the crypto pie. 

It’s very early but we’re starting to get the hang of it. 

Now #83 in the App Store for social networks.

FYI: @zora creator coins can now be swapped via your Farcaster Wallet. 

Shoutout to the 0x team for the routing work and @slokh for picking up on coins that are paired in $zora.

creativity is becoming a defining force of the 21st century, but our economic and legal infrastructure still treat it like a hobby
