what on earth would you need a mathematician for? the math is 3rd grade level.
the only interesting question is if you trust implied decisionmakers it creates

we will see. as i said im still optimistic and excited, just also got fudded by the doge-1 mathematician
"TDH, the worst way to make permissionless subjective decisions, except for all the other ways that do not exist"
it is working great so far

just reasonable skepticism i suppose
they are just a corporate EVM L2. nobody is going to want to be in the corporate network state come on

Base is trying to be a network state but it is corporate cringe jargon imo
we are the only ones building something that plausibly has a pathway to being a network
network
will do great art stuff
Beeple is an artist
we are the only hope :)

beeple only hope
we for sure are the most active part of the art side of the NFT market
ignore is a relative term
quiet
but also keep in mind NFT market is very queit
all of this

do you think that people ignore us because its just impossible to unravel what is happening here or because it has been ambiguous for a long time or because they will need to see proof that it works first?
like right spirit
paid a lot for things that were kindof meh
they just did not get the capital allocation right imho
the closest in spirit was Nouns
a cheerful, art and science oriented daemon/freedom without the motorcycles with blades is probably the closest 1 liner vibe
it is daemon/freedom stuff
i think at this level of abstraction nobody is taking it on
whether cars, ice cream cones, gemini pro, ethereum etc
we have to use all real world tools
if we want to be competitive in the real world
remember everything we are doing is at one level up of absraction
i don't mean an decentralized AI
no
but I want the decentralized version to exist
many will be successful
nothing wrong with that
and almost all of those will be competing via centralized entities
it will be a race among the 0.00001% of people
99.9999% of people will do nothing useful with the tech

what do you think is the biggest advantage in a world where everyone has access to this technology leverage? Is it TDH and the social aspect of the network that makes it appealing plus a decentralized capital hub?
need to just get the fundamentals right before then
when we will be able to go very aggressively on the tech side
the moment is going to come soon enough
is how much leverage a small group of people are going to have with AIs
i do think one of the differences between my views now and views in 2020-2021 (that were pre modern LLMs)
the AIs will help us accelerate feature rollouts
so I think we have provenance and meaning
and there is a big dropoff after that
SOL third
ETH is second closest
BTC probably has them
you need provenance and network effects
why wouldn't ASI be able to clone it and do it better
I think it is not cool feature chain #10
my mental model for what is valuable post ASI remains as is (all with all the relevant caveats)
- prestige real estate
- valuable real world data sources (e.g. hospitals)
- BTC and NFTs
- maybe ETH
but meaning and provenance are not affected
"features" will become a commodity
