The Loud post-launch sentiment tells us everything we need to know about the state of CT.

Folks were happy to whore out their accounts to shill to no end, only to call it a failed launch / scam etc after the moon math MC predictions didn’t immediately come true, or if they missed their allos.

Everyone’s here to make money ofc, but there used to at least be some layer of desired experimentation or mechanism design behind the money games. And in many cases, while impractical in some manner, there was a grander vision behind a lot of those games being played.

Somewhere along the way, it feels like we either lost the plot (or found the truth)?

We stopped caring for experimentation or intricate games, got sick of grand visions, and got down to the root of it.

People simply want to hyper gamble on lotto tickets, whether it’s max leverage perps on hl or aping pump/virtuals shitters.

On one hand, maybe it’s good that we’re dropping the bs. On the other hand, it’s kind of sad to see a lot of the spirit that brought a lot of us to the space disappearing.

The only way to survive is to adapt and meet the needs of the market - but I think we should still celebrate people trying to build cool new stuff like Loud.

You can indeed just do things, and I hope to see people doing lots of other cool things with us soon.

Berachain.
