Thoughts
You’re a founder. You can raise:
$100M building an L1/L2/infrastructure protocol, can launch a glorified testnet and personally cash out $100M - $1B with zero production users.
$2.5M building an app that will struggle to gain users, chance of exiting close to zero.
Choose 1.
Dog coins are like lotteries. Five early guys win 99m and 99 million guys wait for the next one. Basically bitcoin history in fast forward over a day instead of a decade
A few $ invested into public goods today can reshape future economics. Every $1 put into a locked liquidity scheme today to support public goods could create >$10,000 in market demand over the next 100 years and >$1,000 per year every year after. Lets change how we measure value.
This is the fundamental reason why we need Regenerative Finance.
