I want to make something very clear. There is NOTHING that will break my will to grow LONG into a generational platform along with its assets and communities. No event in my personal life, macro or majors nuking. It's evidently clear to me: 1. RH chain is here to stay and we keep pushing it (with many more other cracked teams focused on diff areas) 2. We will keep laser focus on RWA pairs. No short term side quests. "There is no other meta" 3. We are mission driven and you simply can’t kill a movement 4. We are only getting started The space is still trapped in a zero sum mindset, believing that one chain, ecosystem, or asset needs to fall for another to rise. There is a reason why launchers peaked somewhere a in '24 and were not able to scale. With each peak being mostly correlated with mini bull cycles. It's driven by an excessive focus on who controls existing flows + vol vs how to bring net new use cases and users. For LONG the focus is on the latter. LONG eco is still very much in its infancy. I feel everything just like you do. I live and breathe the charts, waking up multiple times each night to check them and monitor sentiment. From time to time it's like having a baby with a fever, it can be very scary. You have to step in, monitor, and act, but under no circumstances should you lose control (obv not giving up thats not even an option) On another note, we’ve absolutely cooked up a much improved app experience, from fixing bugs in wallets and the token list to adding new LONG PVE filters. these will be going live soon. Don’t forget: we don’t just tweet we know how to build and innovate. More next week. LONG.

An important point regarding these. First, a stock token issued on RH technically does not require consent from the company. It’s an SPV with 1:1 backing sitting offshore. The same way USDT didn’t need approval from the US government to issue a dollar pegged coin. Every single major TradFi leader I know of is EXTREMELY excited about tokenization (also validated through many direct conversations we’ve had). The reason some companies object is that NASDAQ is already deeply involved in tokenization and might offer more favorable terms to these public companies. The debate is not about the concept itself but value capture, which is bullish (similar to how devs might not want to launch on Launcher A, and you’d assume they’re against tokenization in general). Before LONG launched tokenized equities, onchain volume was quite underwhelming. So I strongly believe we are in the perfect position to align with any public company out there, offering them the strongest distribution and iterating with issuers on a model that works best for everyone. We play a very complex alignment game that no other crypto team has ever tried (except a few major companies like PMs, Hype, stables and so on). We’ve proved we know how to read the map. And we will win. LONG.
