but unlike BTC give easy way to extend that trust outside the protcol
(like BTC)
to build a special purpose blockchain around only exactly this
and I want to make these decisions as narrow as possible
the protocol type decision is "how do edition sizes work" and "what collections generate TDH" and so on
but that is not a protocol type decision
it is totally fine to have lots of arguments about "do we like this meme card"
to require the fewest decisions possible at the protocol level
as easy to understand as possible
i want the decentralized protocol to be as narrow as possible
seems right
giving him the ability to do it in-network but without it being An Official Game Of The Network (tm)
telling him "go do it outside the network" seems wrong
seems hard
making a whole contract "official" for that and voting and judging
if @[hexum] wants to try some complex editions based collection for gaming
absolutely great happy to see what happens
extend our brand to base
want to do something on base
but 50 people in the network
but it is not protocol level
I can't judge this
I have no idea
if we make "an official protocol collection on Base"
what is our confidence level of Base in 1, 5, 50 years
we should be conservative
and the same thing will happen later when we decentralize
which means we will not do very much
by definition when I am being asked to make decisions "at the protocol level" I am super conservative
and network-ability
but has very high ROI for future scalability and maintainability
and later development work
both thinking work
i think this is the type of thing that has a material amount of work upfront to get it right
but EVMs are easy
and then we add ordinals and solana maybe later tbd
the nodes can index EVMs
i mean Base/Jess and Shape/han
without having to make a protocol wide decision that 'we are using shape'
Jesse wants 6529 activity on Shape. any set of people who are into it, can go do it
but also he bears the "cost" of doing so
nobody can stop him
he can choose to do so
and if @[MintFace] wants to assign all his shadow TDH Generation to The Line NFTs, great!
so i think the answer is to decentralize
and cannot come up with a "fair" formula
I have been thinking about them for 2 years
these things are unknowable
"should we have 6529 Ordinals and how much TDH generation it should have"
"what 6529 initiative should we do on Shape and how much TDH generation it should have"
