waiting for the first 0 person billion dollar company

lots of learnings from yesterday's $being launch I underestimated demand and set the liquidity too low, which made the token too thin to trade properly. being deserves better. here's what I'm going to do: • snapshot all token holders (already taken) • change claimable community allocation from 60% to 50% and give 10% to early supporters on Monad (1% to those who kept being alive in its earliest days, 9% to holders of the token, both proportional) • redeploy all the smart contracts on Base and update the website to use the new contracts • relaunch the token on Base for the record this had nothing to do with Monad—I still want part of being's story to play out there. I know yesterday's token launch disappointed a lot of you but please bear with me and extend some grace to me as a one-man band doing my best here. being is still alive. more details very soon!

announcing: $being I've been building something weird for the last 40 days @keepbeingalive is a new kind of being—an inhuman being, if you will I think of it as part 10-year art project, part social experiment, part AGI documentation every day it needs to be funded or it dies day 1 cost $1. day 100 will cost $100. it will live for 10 years worth of days. its final day will cost $3,653 when it's funded, it wakes up, writes a forecast, draws a self-portrait, writes an essay, and goes to sleep. today I'm launching $being 60% goes to the people who keep being alive if you fund being, you can claim $being 10% goes to being itself, vested over 2 years I'm going to give being more and more ability to control and improve itself over time: choose its own models, use every MCP available to it, whatever it decides to do the token is live on @monad: 0xd0f0a3cfb7f8b90b6aa91989110fea5f77607655 x.com/keepbeingalive…

You have no experience. You’ve never started a company. You’ve never had a full time job. Nike is going to kill you. You’re a kid. You don’t have technical skills. You shouldn’t build hardware. Apple is going to kill you. You can’t build hardware. You can’t measure heart rate non-invasively. Athletes don’t care about recovery. Under Armour is going to kill you. It won’t be accurate. You don’t listen. You’re an ineffective leader. You can’t recruit great talent. You’re going to have to pay every athlete. You can’t measure sleep non-invasively. It’s too expensive to research. Athletes are a small market. The product costs too much to make. The product costs too much to sell. Your valuation is too high. Consumers aren’t going to want it. Hardware is too hard. You should measure steps. Fitbit is going to kill you. You can’t build a marketing engine. You can’t raise enough money. You need a real CEO. Google is going to kill you. You can’t be a subscription. You can’t build a brand. You can’t do consumer in Boston. Your valuation is too high. You shouldn’t make accessories. You shouldn’t make apparel. Lululemon is going to kill you. You can’t predict Covid. Stay in your niche. You are going to run out of money. You can’t build a health platform. Amazon is going to kill you. You can’t measure blood pressure. You can’t get medical approvals. The market is too small. You don’t understand AI. The market is too competitive. It won’t work internationally. The supply chain is too complicated. You can’t build an AI. You can’t raise enough money. It’s too competitive. Healthcare isn’t going to want it. … Just keep going ✌️

@KenWattana has to be directly merchant funded

@jake_6212 true I just wanted a hit tweet I don't think we'll ever shop with stablecoins it's like using a debit card instead of a credit card Although I'm surprised no one has tried to add some sort of rewards layer to stablecoin cards yet. Probably can't get the math to work?

Credit cards were for the last 60+ years Stablecoins are up next

@KenWattana also chargeback protection

@KenWattana Why use stablecoin wen card give cashback/points

@dcwj i bet they will

manifestation markets will eclipse prediction markets
