then Next Gen
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36925 2025-03-15 10:34
then Stream

we need to first manage to learn how to use The Memes decentralized

x/x/X is what you are saying. maybe it will come up but I do not think we have capacity to deal with now
Context from hexum #36921 2025-03-15 10:32
Will this question come up again in the future? “editions could make sense but memes contract doesn’t really make sense”
punk6529 Memes-Chat Reply #36922 2025-03-15 10:33
i guess it could be like Gradients, but there is a lot of highly relevant, highly customized tech in NextGen like artist signing, onchain data, selling mechanics. it is tested, it works, why not just make it a NextGen collection as opposed to another standalone contract
Context from G9ralt #36918 2025-03-15 10:31
Maybe visually they could be like a separate colllection, similar to Gradients? with similar jpegs but different text in the metadata
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36920 2025-03-15 10:32
so I think the options then become: 1/ Next Gen collection (a group of related 1/1s, specifically a 1/1/x) which seems like exactly what the tweet storms are 2/ Stream: which is 1/1 and basically you are "forcing the 1/1/x" which you have natively in NextGen so it is like NextGen but worse 3/ The Memes where I think it would be spamming The Memes 4/ A new personal contract of my own (this makes no sense, why would I not use the 6529 network contracts) 5/ A new 6529 editions contract (why? what will it do that the memes do not?) So when i go through all of that logic, I end up with #1
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36916 2025-03-15 10:30
(and clearly the market clearing price is not $0)
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36915 2025-03-15 10:29
I just want them on chain
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36914 2025-03-15 10:29
i actually don't care if the market clearing price is $0
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36912 2025-03-15 10:29
I do not mind if the market clearing price for Life is Short is X and On Taxis is 1/20th X
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36911 2025-03-15 10:29
in fact, I want to get them all onchain
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36910 2025-03-15 10:29
like just Life is Short but not Freedom To Transact? What about The Institutions are Coming? etc
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36908 2025-03-15 10:28
it would look weird
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36907 2025-03-15 10:28
I do not think it is correct or appropriate for me to spam The Memes with dozens of tweetstorm threads
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36906 2025-03-15 10:28
but the question is "what edition contract would they be on"
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36905 2025-03-15 10:28
well, I thought of this
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36902 2025-03-15 10:27
seems odd
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36901 2025-03-15 10:27
if each tweet is a separate token, it is going to get split up, out of order, impossible to pull together
punk6529 Memes-Chat Reply #36898 2025-03-15 10:26
i think so?
Context from hexum #36893 2025-03-15 10:20
I feel like this is a dumb question but — each tweetstorm is a 1/1? So eg one person will own life is short?
punk6529 Memes-Chat Reply #36892 2025-03-15 10:20
I think we should vote for a beeple x xcopy x cherniak x tyler hobbs collab and not accept anything less than that :)
Context from SQUARE_PIXEL #36849 2025-03-15 09:41
I'm voting for @beeple
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36891 2025-03-15 10:19
open to views and discussion
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36890 2025-03-15 10:19
and it seems reasonable that they end up on NextGen as opposed to some random contract
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36889 2025-03-15 10:18
in any case, I will feel much more comfortable once they are on-chain and not subject to Elon's whims
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36888 2025-03-15 10:18
given they are priced out of "Life is short"
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36887 2025-03-15 10:18
and a smaller but non-zero number of people would still want to own "on taxis"
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36886 2025-03-15 10:17
or "freedom to transact"
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36885 2025-03-15 10:17
a lot of people would want to own "life is short"
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36884 2025-03-15 10:17
i think it will work as a collection
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36883 2025-03-15 10:17
and that seems like a really dumb way to waste $xxx,xxx
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36882 2025-03-15 10:16
because right now we can do it for x,xxx dollars I think and with 100 gwei gas it is $xxx,xxx I think
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36881 2025-03-15 10:16
but it has been a mild stressor on my mind for the last year +
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36880 2025-03-15 10:16
it is not the most important thing we need to do
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36879 2025-03-15 10:16
so I think what might make sense is something like this: - once we know we are done with twitter first (blockchain running live and new posts are by default decentralized) - then combination - NextGen collection - Book (physical) - Book PDF (free) - And we wrap up the centralized era of the tweet storms neatly and smoothly, get them into the permanent record of Ethereum and be done - Of course then I get stressed because it is a lot of data and at 100 gwei gas it is unaffordable but at 0.5 gwei gas it is free ninety nine - So I dunno maybe it is a good idea to mint them now and keep the collection open to add the additional ones
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36878 2025-03-15 10:13
not "oh, also here are 20 more"
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36877 2025-03-15 10:13
because I want to know I have a natural ending point
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36876 2025-03-15 10:12
i have harassed @[MintFace] twice to make them into book form (we have them that way) but never proceeded
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36875 2025-03-15 10:12
new ones are natively decentralized to begin with
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36874 2025-03-15 10:12
and then from then on after that is done
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36873 2025-03-15 10:12
2021-2025 or something
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36872 2025-03-15 10:12
so the collection can be "The Tweetstorms"
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36871 2025-03-15 10:11
like something something something something "when the first place the new threads go is on our decentralized chain"
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36870 2025-03-15 10:11
my difficulty in this is figuring out when to make the cutoff
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36869 2025-03-15 10:11
i think that is more sensible than each tweet as a token bc it is going to get out of hand that way
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36868 2025-03-15 10:10
maybe each thread as a token, some type of visual display of them and the actual text written on chain
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36867 2025-03-15 10:09
obviously "twitter" is not the place for them to permanently be
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36866 2025-03-15 10:09
it would be a good opportunity to make them permanent
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36865 2025-03-15 10:09
gas is super cheap right now
punk6529 Memes-Chat Reply #36864 2025-03-15 10:08
yes, I think maybe as a nextgen so they can be composable?
Context from Giopetto #36845 2025-03-15 09:37
Threads are gold, they belong on chain
punk6529 Memes-Chat Reply #36842 2025-03-15 09:32
the really funny part is someone in a year after it is all live goes back and reads all of the 140+ threads, it is all there conceptually ex the implementation details
Context from hexum #36823 2025-03-15 09:02
it’s fun now because I can see clearly where you were articulating parts of the vision even back then
punk6529 Memes-Chat #36841 2025-03-15 09:29
