for the same reason that governments are not efficient at spending money
Context from AnimatedNFT #31703 2025-03-03 22:22
I think the thing I am most worried about is 3. I have yet to see an NFT related project spend monies efficiently.
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31706 2025-03-03 22:23
that drop the prices consistently high
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31705 2025-03-03 22:23
there are a few whale believers
punk6529 Memes-Chat Reply #31704 2025-03-03 22:23
i think they are clearing at like 5? the initial clearing prices always struck me as ahead of the project's maturity

current bid .01 with 5 hours left
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31702 2025-03-03 22:20
so we will discuss it all together
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31701 2025-03-03 22:20
but it is part and parcel with the overall approach
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31700 2025-03-03 22:20
i think i have a solution i am willing to test
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31699 2025-03-03 22:20
so the solution has to avoid all the traps: 1. underfunding the team needed to run the show (classic public goods, open-source issue) 2. centralizing funding 3. 'spending other people's money' inefficiently
punk6529 Memes-Chat Reply #31695 2025-03-03 22:18
i mean they have a lot of money still I think but the mojo is a bit shaky
Context from maybe #31682 2025-03-03 22:16
is nouns dao defunct?
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31694 2025-03-03 22:18
and also I am used to operating lean
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31693 2025-03-03 22:17
and they did because it is not exactly coming out of their pockets"
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31692 2025-03-03 22:17
and was like "well, I wouldn't have spent that much money for that"
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31691 2025-03-03 22:17
and I would look at the proposals that got approved
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31689 2025-03-03 22:17
i think over 20,000 ETH
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31688 2025-03-03 22:17
much more than we ever had
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31687 2025-03-03 22:16
so they had this massive pile of ETH
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31686 2025-03-03 22:16
everyone gets the money
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31685 2025-03-03 22:16
nobody gets the money
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31684 2025-03-03 22:16
all the mint revenue goes to a group treasury (leave aside regulatory issues for a second)
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31683 2025-03-03 22:16
he was in the right direction
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31681 2025-03-03 22:16
so 4156 had an interesting idea
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31680 2025-03-03 22:16
which can happen when you don't feel that it is exactly your money
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31679 2025-03-03 22:15
IMHO they overspent on things
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31678 2025-03-03 22:15
Nouns DAO was interesting in a different way
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31677 2025-03-03 22:15
so you get this light drama that is happening
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31676 2025-03-03 22:15
EF can't keep up with all
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31675 2025-03-03 22:15
he can't keep up with all
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31674 2025-03-03 22:15
different interests
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31673 2025-03-03 22:15
many stakeholders
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31672 2025-03-03 22:14
but obviously ETH is much bigger than Vitalik now
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31671 2025-03-03 22:14
Vitalik is very smart
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31670 2025-03-03 22:14
and good
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31669 2025-03-03 22:14
and that is fine
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31668 2025-03-03 22:14
but it is very stylistically Vitalik
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31667 2025-03-03 22:14
I have no problem with the EF
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31666 2025-03-03 22:14
what we see in Ethereum is a different form of weakness of a centralized foundation
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31665 2025-03-03 22:14
it might have not worked
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31664 2025-03-03 22:14
if it was not for the fact that some core devs got rich off BTC
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31663 2025-03-03 22:13
to the people who make BTC better
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31662 2025-03-03 22:13
only a tiny % of the BTC community contributes
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31661 2025-03-03 22:13
is 'tragedy of the commons'
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31660 2025-03-03 22:13
what you can learn from BTC
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31659 2025-03-03 22:12
BTC underfunds its developers
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31658 2025-03-03 22:12
all the current models out there sortof suck
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31657 2025-03-03 22:12
I think the hardest part of the 'white paper' or 'tokeneconomics'
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31656 2025-03-03 22:12
it is very interesting, complex
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31655 2025-03-03 22:12
and we have to figure out how the network ensures the network develops
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31654 2025-03-03 22:11
in the future we should not take in the meme revenue
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31653 2025-03-03 22:11
of we keep some of the meme revenue and take on a variety of responsibilities
punk6529 Memes-Chat #31652 2025-03-03 22:11
so this comes in with a package
