is everyone here still an eth maxi? are you guys all gonna hold hands as the ship slowly sinks?
ecosystems like eth op and farcaster will trick you into thinking you’ve made a compelling product because there’s a “kumbaya let’s all win together mentality”.

Use my app I’ll use yours!
Use my app and I’ll give u a boost here with my large fc following!
Use my chain I’ll use your app!

it’s negative signal and will keep you from the truth: you’re product isn’t compelling enough
"talk less build more"

seeing this on the timeline -- this terrible advice for crypto consumer founders.

everything's forkable, your moat is no longer the tech. your moat is your brand and distribution.

whenever i started telling myself "focus on the product, stay off twitter", it was because twitter was beating me. its bad for your mental health, its combative, its mean.

twitter is harder than building product. but it needs to be done. learn to embrace the smoke. care less about what people think. especially anon circle avatars on the internet. do hot yoga daily.

lock in.
people are starting to be meaner to me on here

might make me start using fc more 😂
insecure men change the world
many such cases

also remember when @dwr.eth tried to clown me for being bad at twitter LOL
a majority of my posts on Twitter are quote tweets to interesting content

I would honestly love to quote cast here more but unfortunately there isn’t much content here I want to quote cast to unless it’s directed at me

still gotta give farcaster a ton of credit to helping get unlonely off the ground
I’m gonna start bull posting soon
I’m getting much better at twitter and worse at farcaster
just do it
the anxiety is coming from the fear that a lot of money will flow through your contracts
and that is a good problem to have

everything else is cope
i hear a lot of founders say "in a gold rush, build shovels!". i don't think this analogy works in crypto.

gold is gold, there's nothing to innovate with it. on the other hand, crypto social still has miles and miles of space to innovate.

by the time you've built shovels for the gold, people will have realized the gold actually cures cancer, or can be used for space travel, or can be used for extremely novel online content experiences powered by livestreams and tokens.
does anyone know someone who works at telegram?
ever since i got hacked earlier this year, i still haven't been able to log back in on my phone
tldr; unlonely is pivoting (but not in the way you're probably thinking of).

for a while, unlonely has been trying to do 2 things right:
1. make dope shows / content around tokens
2. make a platform for others to do #1

essentially, is unlonely a platform or a content studio? this was the existential question grace and i were asking ourselves. and for a while we tried doing both.
the cringe lord himself has spoken
go back to sleep
@dwr.eth does this count as porn/will this get me nerfed?
I taught my first yoga class this Labor Day weekend. try to ignore my butt, but was super fun and planning on getting my teacher training this fall.
I’ll host more if you’re interested!
the energy im bringing to our next show
