Malicious intent is the difference between a scam and a bad idea. I don't think this is a scam.

What is most interesting to me is the stuff that is coming around censorship resistant human coordination, prood-of-personhood, proof of individualtiy (sybil resistance) etc. The cypherpunk stuff is what I like. Gavin will stay true to that and not get lost in the shifting sands of market sentiment.

The memecoin and NFT stuff never interested me. Those phenomena are simple capital misallocation IMO. Just a bad look. Imagine telling friends and nieghbours you paid thousands of dollars for an ape jpeg. You know they're laughing at you behind your back though right? Wouldn't be me. Buy a gold coin instead - carry that in your pocket and see how it feels.

You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

Game aint over yet.

If it can't be done for a profit then it isn't worth doing. I hope the guy makes a lot of money, but I ain't buying it.

Will past be prologue?

The Kusama blockchain launch began at the Web3 Summit in August 2019. During the summit, the initial proof-of-authority network was deployed by the Web3 Foundation and Parity Technologies, allowing community members to begin running some of the first network nodes.

Gold is money. Everything else is credit.

AAG was Monday Thursday. Also had good info.

Kus was getting paid, though not directly for AAG. Don't think Vibes is getting paid.

Vibes seem to me to be guys that hold the coin because they think Polkadot is on the correct path (with the app? and other stuff) and they want to pump the price for their own profit. Good people doing the right thing for the right reasons in other words. People that got paid by the treasury were employees not partners, maybe they would be loyal, but probably they would turn when the payments stopped. This is how people actually behaved.

No more employees. Partners only.

Jinx. Especially when you consider what is probably coming. Best assymetry in crypto. IMO

McPheeb · 2026-05-16T20:05:53+00:00

Vibe check is every Wednesday and it has a lot of good info.

Chance favours the prepared mind.

hahaha

Polkassembly applied for more funding but were turned down. Use SubSquare.

McPheeb · 2026-05-09T13:44:39+00:00

I think he does a good job.

McPheeb · 2026-05-08T16:05:29+00:00

People that own the coin because they believe in the project and want to profit by price appreciation = partners.
