MegaETH is the real-time blockchain. Where crypto applications leverage extreme performance to reach their full potential.
I've seen a lot more people dunking than celebrating and it makes sense, after all most of us in crypto "pivoted" to be absorbed by the existing world machine. I also don't think most of the commentators made it past the blog post to the actual manifesto/mandate, just a sign of times I guess, clicking one extra link and spending time to read through is tough. On a more serious note, EF currently is the only player with both the resources and network effects to not just keep cypherpunk dream alive but also to actually make it happen. Will this accrue to eth price wise short term? Certainly not. Will it accrue to it long term? Only if it wins (and wins under the conditions it set for itself, not because of being adopted by tradfi). Should we care about price at all? Personally think the goal here is more important I absolutely think that we should have somebody at least trying this on grand scale instead of pursuing financial applications (and I’m pretty aware how funny it must sound from CEO of prop trading firm that made it from financial applications of blockchains🙃). Rest of us can do what they do and choose to hold eth or not. If I’m honest, holding it is a very long shot, but there are way worse cults out there, so I’ll keep my eth for the culture and memes🫡
long ass tweet to say mega AMAs are fucking back for a while, i've been wondering which one's harder to manage: genuine believers or performative community? performative community was a challenge in the early days wen we were learning to deal with masters of convincing the emperor that there were clothes they knew how to be the "ideal members", with years of practice on discord in differentiating their chats, fake positivity, memes, artwork, tweets and other "contributions" truthfully, at times they made me feel good about the "support" we had, but i had to unlearn that instinct these days, i am fortunate to be surrounded by at least a few genuine believers who care at a time wen sentiment isn't too favourable: - @juliencoppola: a voice for fellow builders AND users - @CrypLykos: helpful, fun and omnipresent - @MedoCons: will not hesitate to point out the elephant in the room - @_WABERSKY: i want to add this dude to every mafia beta testing group, insanely engaged with the eco even if he loses money at times (what went wrong with *redacted*) - @hyeon__dev : big brain, champion of spreading our word - @markbbc from The People tg chat: outspoken in his criticism, KPI-maxi, big advocate for mafia app launches esp @blackhaven (obv this list is missing lots of you.) the hard part with both genuine and performative community is: honesty with performative folks, we had to be honest about their expectations of a transactional relationship with genuine believers, we have to be honest about our mistakes that being said, it's a great problem to have mega is quite happy to be honest. uncomfortable silence is not our forte see you on Friday with a new playlist of satanic heavy metal
the future is arcade finance - high stakes - quick rounds - real markets the future is @hitdotone
kinda shocking that this manifesto is only getting 500k views, when it should be the guiding principle for all crypto applications. no matter whether you are in Ethereum or not, our goal should be to build open systems and applications that people can fall back on when shit hits the fan ( if not already!) this goes way, way beyond DeFi. It touches every layer of digital life: interpersonal communication, knowledge storage, entertainment, and increasingly, the use of AI. Ethereum is the OG and the only freedom technology.
Do you know which chain truly treasures design? There’s hardly any project that cares about design the way @megaeth does. Here’s a breakdown of the design inspirations behind Rabbithole. Happy mainnet!
