interesting thought: “There is no societal permission for an AI future that hollows out entire industries”

Sat down at DAS to debate the Dudas @mdudas on all things VC.
- Are VCs cooked?
- Is there too much infra?
- Memecoins, good or bad?
Things got spicy, MMs walked out half-way in disgust, and the audience voted at the end who between us won...
This is a truly impressive conversation

The reality is... 98.4% of pumpfun tokens never make it to Raydium.
Out of the 1.6% that do, here's how they've performed:
From 43,846 graduating tokens…
• 35,579 (81.15%) never made it above 500k market cap.
• 5,963 (13.6%) made it to 500K - 2M market cap.
• 1,846 (4.21%) made it to 2M - 10M market cap.
• 369 (0.842%) made it to 10M - 50M market cap.
• 64 (0.146%) made it to 50M - 200M market cap.
• 23 (0.052%) made it to 200M - 1B market cap.
• 2 (0.005%) made it above 1B market cap.
Today, someone sent me one of the dashboards created by @Adam_Tehc, which I found interesting, especially the part about "Graduated Tokens" by @pumpdotfun. I decided to play with this 1.5% token data to see if you can actually make it and how to play it using statistics!
So, as you can see:
81% of the 1.5% tokens are crushed at 0 - 500k, with an average lifetime of 49 hours.
8.85% of the 1.5% tokens are crushed at 500k - 1m, with an average lifetime of 105 hours.
Now, regarding probability, the best groups to buy are:
200m - 500m
20m - 50m
2m - 5m
1m - 2m
And if you want to catch your next x100 - x1000, be ready to hold for at least 563 - 850 hours!

America did not build New York. The Netherlands did.
America did not pay for New York. The Netherlands did.
America did not bring thousands of settlers to live in New York. The Netherlands did.
It is perfectly fair for the Netherlands to be raising questions about New York.

O! Endlich wird dieser Krieg selbst vom Standard nicht mehr lapidar als Angriffskrieg bezeichnet: "Seit elf Jahren herrscht in der Ukraine Krieg, vor knapp drei Jahren begann Russland zusätzlich seine Vollinvasion." derstandard.at/story/3000000…

Never thought i would tweet this: The only reason I’m not fleeing Europe right now as Russia strikes back after US weapons hit its territory is that you Americans elected Trump 🤷♂️
love it! “infra circle jerk” 😂
Ethereum doesnt have a marketing problem, it has a user research & infra:dapps ratio problem.
We've scaled, we got these account & chain abstraction things - can we stop this infra circlejerk and build more things people actually need?
There are ZERO excuses left.
Great applications and seeing how real people use Ethereum and how institutions use Ethereum, is what will "market Ethereum".
...
Ethereum is the birthplace of dApps, DeFi, ReFi, DeSci, DAOs, RWAs etc.
We have the most robust & decentralized infra ecosystem.
Home to the most idealistic community w/ highest density of autistic geniuses.
Yet none of it will matter if we dont get our shit together.
...
In interviewing 40+ ppl at Devcon, the biggest criticism we heard from Argentina to Africa to EF designers, is the disconnect between builders & the real world problems.
Every Devcon is filled with more jargon. More innovation, only understood by a niche crowd.
More solutions looking for problems.
But very few willing to ask "how & to whom is this actually useful?"
Hate Solana profit maxis all you want, but they put effort in understanding their user base.
...
Please, please, PLEASE - whatever you're building, spend at least 20% of your time talking to users. Validate early & recurringly.
More importantly - identify problems first. Dont start building something just because you think its cool.
We need to remember why we're here - to build cool shit thats useful for real people.
...
Tbf there is a shitton actually happening, its just lost in a constant stream of noise.
We hope to highlight as many cool dapps & usecases in the "Built on Ethereum" documentary.
Know any? Tag them!

o no… just tell me this isn’t true! How is it possible to maneuver so close to war between Nato states and russia and Europe sits in silence?

"There is no room for individual thought left on the left." What a quote!!! ...and pretty much sums up the situation in Europe too! It is so sad that the only choice one has is either not vote or vote right in Europe! @peterthiel youtube.com/watch?v=wwJV_NuN…
not reposting often, especially not from people who have big reach, but yes… this is a version of the Ukrainian war we never hear about in the west. European politician please stop making war and start peace talks now!

If you’re in Berlin check out this piece I’ve been making with @byzo
ok, i know i am not posting enough... i promise i will ;-) Here is the first post in a while for anyone close to berlin: bkv-potsdam.de/michael-breid…
What exactly do you mean when you say: contrary to what is happening right now in A.i. the Manhattan project was developed in a save and responsible way? Besides fatalities on the testing sites the bomb was dropped at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. What exactly was save about that?

Leider löschte der ARD-Faktenfinder den großen "Sprengstoff in Pflanzenform"-Abschnitt seines Artikels.
Damit all die Recherchearbeit nicht umsonst war, gibt es hier nochmal zum Genießen die ganze Passage in voller Pracht:
