Did we just ate? Because that Gala was a full-course feast! I wanted to share some words (and love) as I’m incredibly grateful and proud to have organised this edition of the WoW Gala. It was a challenge. With high expectations, a leaner team, tighter budget, and less time to prepare... but we made it! And it was a f!cking vibe. To everyone who joined us: THANK YOU! I’m so happy we managed to create a truly unique experience; where beauty met curiosity, where art and fun lived in every corner, where time somehow stretched and collapsed all at once, and where we danced our arses off!! A special thank you to @JordanZucch. Your artistic vision was the perfect match for this venue. You were instrumental in making this Gala come to life and helped me navigate so many key decisions. I’m beyond grateful. Living in Portugal meant my close friends could also be there; and that made my heart so, so full. Thank you to the incredible WoW team who helped make this happen. I feel so grateful for having you! To those who couldn’t make it, you were deeply missed, especially @TheDegenesse, @dianalukye, @samanthajasmine, @kashvii 🖤 Huge thanks to our partners - @tezos and @guideMichelinFR, but also @sleap_io, @NFCsummit, @chippedsocial, @sleap_io, @SpiritPunks_, @poapxyz, @WaldosLegend, @thehugxyz, our production agency Giant Steps, the Palacio do Grilo staff - and all the INCREDIBLE artists, esp. @this_is_noanne and @MetaBetties!!! And of course, thanks to all my beloved web3 friends!!! I want to tag you all, but there are too many of you to count. Please reply if you were there so I can send a proper follow-up. My brain is still recovering from this intense organisational sprint. I wish I took more pictures. In the meantime, here's one of (part of) our dream team and another with my beautiful partner 🖤

I find it fascinating that crypto is so obsessed with community. While every else in tradfi or web2 it is users that pay for your invoices. No web2 or tradfi company is building it for community. They are building it for users to solve their problems or help them earn more money.

Everyone's TGE has gone to shit and it's all fault. We could blame @Solana or @base or @pumpdotfun or the shifty yield from locked investor tokens a la @berachain and many similar others. But the fact of matter is - we knew the number of crypto assets would only grow exponentially - if it weren't on 1 chain, it would be on another. If not on 1 launchpad, it would be on another. - what has caused a lot of pain and anger is either the outright callous rugs or disingenuous self-serving actions by teams disguised as community orientation. Where to from here? For protocols: 1. If you're a protocol team, build a product people use, and pay for. Build for revenue & grow that revenue, user base, and track record. 2. Actually focus on shipping something differentiated and new. Nothings gonna work if we keep pumping out derivatives, forks or copycats. 3. Take as little money as possible upfront, and allocate as much to the community as you can. Study @JupiterExchange @HyperliquidX as strong case studies. 4. TGE isn't a one off payoff. It's the start of a debt to your community. 5. Give the community a chance to profit off your token, launching at astronomical valuations creates down only pressure and red for your holders - your early advocates and users. Make them profit and they form the cult you are looking for. 6. Connect with the community genuinely and don't treat governance as a meme. Enrolling & utilizing your community with strong token flywheels and governance programs can create such a strong foundational support faster & stronger than you can manufacture yourself (or with MMs, CEXes and other insiders). 7. In a space where 99% of teams operate insiders-first and PVP, be the 1% that actually take the other foot - the market notices and the community rewards you. 8. DO NOT RUSH to launch a token when you have not formed enough PMF and community traction. Just don't. For memes: 1. I think there will always be new memes. But the market is clearly sick of the pvp and 'first in first out' nature that it's descended to. 2. There will be a flight back to blue chip memes and memes with pure memetics & community. As a builder, pains me to see builders and those launching memes playing stupid games and causing pain. Counter to everything we are working towards. Would love to hear what you guys think. @imlocha @KseniiaBaziian @kryptoJinJin @benhwx @ahboyash @2lambro @PhilHedayatnia @Grantblocmates @jussy_world @andyyy @blue_clarity @emilylai @livingwithwill

One of the most true and important tweets these days ☝️ We recognise that at WoW and that’s why we called our pre-TGE campaign Anti-Farming Farming Club, put a lot of conditions in place to filter out farmer wallets, focussed on IRL events with the most relevant audience. And yet, we still get farmers here and there 🤷‍♀️

Maybe you should not ask yourself what the Pudgy/Abstract/Igloo team could have done differently but what is wrong in our space 🤔 Pre-airdrop = best team, heroes, single-handedly bring back NFTs Airdrop = thanks for the free money, gtfo, onto the next one Past-airdrop = idiots, mistakes, failure This is what you get when you financially incentivize everything. You don't have users, you have airdrop farmers ☝️ A spineless spawn of crypto. You have to be completely nuts to be a builder in this space. Builders in web3 today are essentially digital BDSM enthusiasts.

@sandergansen @kodama_eth Airdrops are a marketing mechanism with an insane CACs. You have to have a lot of conviction that it is worth it, that even with losing 80-90% of price/FDV, you are still going to be net positive.

Airdrops should be seen as marketing tool, helping to bring eyes to platforms so that they would want to test ‘em. Tho, with so many projects launching and most being technically very similar, I’m not sure most even need to be launched. Like really — technically, I’ve not been intrigued by almost anything since the launch of Base, and still choose to build on Polygon for its reliability. That said, I did hear one super intriguing pitch yesterday, and will help them get some early validation.

We clearly need to solve liquidity issues and improve the UI. One important question is: Who do we want to reach with Ethereum? Blockchains are like countries; they have different cultures. Some are easier to live in, while others are more expensive, etc. We cannot target everyone with Ethereum, but are we clear on who we want to target? I think Layer 2 solutions are a great way to use Ethereum and target specific groups as they have their own cultures, etc.

Stani.eth@StaniKulechov·
Let's be clear about something regarding Ethereum. 1. Highest security First of all Ethereum has the highest security amongst the programmable execution environments. Yes this matters. When world moves onchain, that means that most important and mission critical use-cases will use Ethereum. Most importantly this means $25T finance industry. 2. DeFi TVL The only PMF for onchain has been DeFi. Out of the 122B TVL Ethereum is the home for over half of it and almost 6x to the second biggest. The economies of scale is on Ethereum. Mainnet Aave is the only place you can borrow $1B in stables by posting a collateral. You can't do it anywhere else. All the most relevant DeFi innovation I keep being pitched is still on Ethereum. 3. Developer ecosystem and tooling While building DeFi sounds an easy to replicate anywhere, that is not really the case. DeFi protocols need solid network security and stability to be able to serve collateralized products and any product that include a oracle price feed. Second, in most nascent network ecosystems its much more harder to build DeFi and to secure it. Ethereum has advantage here as the developer ecosystem has build solid tooling around development (Hardhat, Foundry), multiple different testing tools, i.e. different fuzzy-testing, simulation tooling such as Tenderly for debugging and robust ecosystem of auditors that are really going deep into the code and caring, not just rubber stamping audit reports. 4. EVM innovation EVM has been the most valuable innovation in the Ethereum ecosystem. We are seeing more exciting innovation happening on EVM space, including from ZK-based EVMs to solve scalability from ZKSync, Scroll to Linea and Succinct. Instead of seeing one path of innovation, we are seeing multiple options competing to provide the best scalability and also privacy for users. 5. L2 strategy (+ Beef up Ethereum L1) People critisize the L2 strategy on Ethereum but it actually works. It allows L1 to offer highest security for Ethereum while allowing innovation to foster on L2s (as per previous point). Every major exchange or institution is looking to run their own network. They want customization and they want economics. How I would like to see this continue is that we keep innovating on the L1 side, and beef up Ethereum mainnet, faster. Once cross-chain liquidity is solved and ux challenges are removed, it all feels unified, and super fast. 6. POTUS is building on Ethereum WLF Aave instance is going to be deployed on Ethereum mainnet. Lot of innovation will follow on DeFi with WLF. This is where POTUS fundamentals are happening. 7. The institutions are deploying on Ethereum For institutions like BlackRock their main base is Ethereum and this is because Ethereum provides the highest security and stability for institutions to issue assets like RWAs, its also where all the DeFi network effects are. 8. Talent pool Most of the talented smart contract developers are on Ethereum, writing Solidity. This is also the reason why the most biggest protocols are on Ethereum and have been running for years and the same reason why the developer tooling on Ethereum is light years ahead of everything else. It's a more mature ecosystem. Remember, onchain is full of short term (very risky) opportunities that take the moment of attention but what really matters down the line is fundamentals. The ecosystems and its users that focus most of fundamentals will get the most adoption. It's just a matter of time when ETH pumps, but when it does, it's going to be the biggest revenge pump ever.

I appreciate you sharing it, it helps to see how it can be perceived from the outside. Pump the FP so that...what? @TheDegenesse and me personally gain nothing out of a FP pump. I don't even hold a WoW as I am not allowed to buy one, and I never sold a single NFT in my life. "short-term pump" to get community excited, but if it short-term then what? lots of people get upset again? and for what? You are talking to people who have been spending many hours a week talking with legal, for almost a year now. ‘regulatory compliance' is not an empty sound for us.

@TheDegenesse This sounds exactly like what a project about to drop a token to pump FP would say. ‘Long-term vision,’ ‘regulatory compliance,’ and ‘ecosystem utility’, all fancy words for dressing up a short-term pump. comes off as trying too hard to get ahead of potential criticism.

seeing lots of "nft companies launching tokens to pump the fp" comments in the timeline. let's think logically about this. launching sustainable utilty tokens with a longterm vision is no easy feat. this isn't something you just decide to do to jump on a narrative. sure, it's easy nowadays to launch a token, but to do so within regulatory guidelines, in collaboration with exachanges, market makers, liquidity providers, etc etc is REAL work, and it's expensive. i have no doubt the token news you're seeing is months, if not years, in the making. fungible tokens are a much more accessible, liquid way to drive partcipation and grow a community. they can also deliver other utilities and roles within an onchain ecosystem than the nfts alone. "to pump the fp" is too shortsighted. ofc nft companies want to see their communities win. when holders win, companies win. but pumping the fp is fickle and short-lived. things that drive longterm upward value are clear business strategy, sustainable rev model, killer team, product market fit, and network effect. in an ideal situation, the fungible token fuels that. fungible tokens are risky, especially when airdropped, which surely results in a massive sell-off as people extract what they can and gtfo. you think nft companies happily take on this risk just to pump the fp for a moment in time? the probable reasons why you're seeing an influx of token drops on the timeline is because: - companies have been working toward this for a long time and it's now or never to ride the rest of the bull - the US regulatory climate has changed, creating more favorable conditions for token launches - launching tokens before the end of year has some regulatory benefit as mica guidelines go into effect 2025 / buys you more time on a compliant white paper - the memecoin meta has laid the groundwork for culture coins so no, nft companies aren't launching tokens to pump the fp.
