I know I've been in crypto too long when I immediately nodded and thought "wonder what's in store for airdrop farmers now"

Need to iterate heavily to break through local maxima & find product-market fit. That often means upsetting your current users, which is an unfortunate but often necessary reality.

Semi-regular Paragraph annoyances thread.
If you could have us fix or build one thing, what would it be?

Very cool experiment by the @coinage team.
Content coins that get bought & burnt based on YouTube views.
Drives value to the coin beyond strict speculation: increase in attention = increase in views = increase in ad revenue = increase in coin price.

meta comment about this essay, but I love the level of interactivity and actual usable demos the author included

Excited to welcome @dazuma to the Paragraph team (and, to Farcaster)!
He'll be joining as an engineer with a focus on frontend, so if the product starts feeling a lot smoother, you know who to thank.
Prior to Paragraph he was one of the first 5 engineers at OpenSea; and also spent some time at Stakefish and Outland Art.
Please give him a warm welcome!

Just donated to @yesyes crowdfund.
He’s written some of the most extensive deep dives & analyses on /paragraph, and I’m excited to see him continue!

imo: it's definitely possible for patronage & speculation to co-exist.
for example:
- buying a hypersub because you want to support the creator (but maybe there's a chance you'll earn even more via rev share)
- supporting a crowdfund on Mirror because you want to see the idea come to life (but maybe the tokens you receive are worth something some day)
- minting limited edition NFTs from your friends because you want to fund their art (but maybe at some point the art will appreciate in value)
I don't think this is cognitive dissonance: both motivations can be true at the same time.
Beyond motivations for a single person, I also think it's possible to build platforms & protocols that can cater to both speculators _and_ patrons.
The main question in my mind is how you strike a balance, and prevent alienating one of these groups if both can be beneficial for creators.

@reidtandy sharing some thoughts on ownership, helping creators monetize, paid subscriptions, and coins on Early Morning Crew: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZV1k-6FTwM
Linear has some great design, but these 3 buttons are tough - I don't know if I've ever clicked the correct button here on the first try

We'd deeply appreciate any thoughts on how we can build a better economic model for writing.

Great discussion by @ted.
When new economic models emerge -- like banner ads, or paid recurring subscriptions -- there's changes in incentives, which shift how creators create and for whom. Rather than creating for an audience, creators may shift to appease an algorithm or to drive clicks on ads.
Coining content is a new economic model. What will coins incentivize, and for whom? Will creators create for their audience, or for traders/speculators (or both?)
With that in mind -- what does the ideal UX look like? For example, a basic question is what language should we be using -- should we be calling it "trade/buy" or "support/collect"?
In any case, I'm very supportive of all the experimentation to find out what does & does not work.
