Terminally Onchain

/toc4123

Terminally Onchain (TOC) is a newsletter that covers onchain strategy. Get deep dives to straight to your inbox every Tuesday & Friday: terminallyonchain.xyz

does this analogy make sense?

The point I'm trying to underscore here is that for founders who truly have a high utility, creative, and fun consumer crypto idea...it's now possible to attract users through incentives and reputation that simply wasn't technically feasible before.
tbh a bit disappointed by my /toc deep dive - started super late, couldn't form the sentences, and was a bit of a cop out post.

it's weird bc I feel like I learned a lot today but couldn't get myself to articulate properly.

also, I need to better understand order flows, MEV tips, DAS, etc.

Pretend you work at Zora. how do u think about Shape L2 also being directed at creators / artists?
As I finish my 2023 taxes, perhaps I was too onchain last year
Thanks @rgboop and @ccarella.eth for resubscribing to /toc!
what is delta network and why is everyone joining it
This is cool, just saw that Defi prime shared my post from yesterday in the TG channel!
In yesterday's /toc deep dive:

1) I cover key takeaways from @vitalik.eth "Making Ethereum alignment legible" post & my idea for the "front page of Ethereum" for builders.

2) Cover the history of the Free software movement & open source initiative.

3) Discuss my mock-up for an "L2 Beat for EIP contributions"

what do you think is the best example of strong or weak tech in crypto?
Question #3 is pretty interesting

Think most people would expect the answer to be "do what you're most interested in".

But as a high-schooler (or anyone early in their careers), there's a good chance you're just really excited about tech in general and don't feel strongly swayed by crypto or AI. In that case, making a bet on which one you think will help pop off your brand/career seems like the better option.

What do all of you think?
h/t @gakonst

what are the arguments against building an L2 on OP Stack?

My guess is if you're building a niche L2 that can bootstrap a certain type of user through another ecosystem (i.e. arbitrum nitro)

although not sure how the developer experience for that is

just did this for /toc subs - hopefully should get more people who don't check the group chat to join the channel
@chaskin.eth

I’m expecting that with the channel changes, we’ll be able to mostly see high quality content from even the largest channels. Exclusive is potentially a downside, for sure, but better exclusive and useful than open and spammy.

Personally I haven’t been checking channel feeds regularly for at least 6 months but that’s already changing.
If you're a /toc pro subscriber and not a member of the channel, please check the group chat or DC me!

Hello I’m new here
Hope you’ll are friendly
Plan for /toc as channel updates roll out this week:

- TOC @hypersub gated which will override the "liked cast" default for adding members. There's ~100 of you subscribed so that should be a good start.

- To bring new people into the channel, I'll be onboarding about 5 casters / week by gifting them a month of the hypersub. They'll get added to our token gated WC chat and hopefully will be welcomed by the others. If they enjoy and resubscribe, big W.

- Current community members can refer anyone in the chat as well. Requirements will be similar to who gets boosted (less than 10k followers).

Anything else I should be thinking about?
enjoyed this /ponder poll based on /toc deep dives!

will try to do these more often
