Got 10s of DMs with referrals to join Cookie.
You know that a new hot thing is in town.
I'm still touristing and won't actively tweet for a few days more.
Btw, why my portfolio not at ATH yet?!

Amazing how many once hot & high potential crypto experiments failed.
Just a few on my list:
- Fractional NFTs / ERC-404
- NFT lending
- Music NFTs
- Elastic supply tokens/stablecoins (although $AMPL still alive)
- $YFI style 'fair launches'
- (3,3)
- Move-to-Earn (and similar Earn slogans)
- Two-token model (Bera might be last to try it)
- Algo-stablecoins (UST but sUSD depegged despite 750% col. ratio)
- "Stable asset" controlled by interest rates, not pegged to fiat: $RAI
- Stables backed by Protocol controlled value (PCV) like $FEI.
(Olimpus DAO keeps similar Protocol Owned Liquidity (POL) idea alive.)
Failure is part of innovation. And crypto is amazing as we experiment a lot.
Perhaps those ideas were ahead of their time, like YouTube was before adequate internet speeds.
Still, I feel innovation in tokenomics and demand for complex mechanics have declined. The UST collapse gave us PTSD.
Experimentation still exists. e.g.:
- Berachain's Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL) -> Chain-Owned Liquidity (COL)
- Intia's Enshrined liquidity
- Internet Capital Markets
- Memecoin launchpads: Boop, pumpfun
- L2s
Remember that experimentation is great but don't marry your bags and the latest hot trend will likely fade away.

Friend tech team rugged so @fantasy_top_ could fly.
Two consumer apps but a big difference is the team:
Fantasy team continues to ship and innovate. Not giving up.
We need more builders like them and less of Friend tech scamooors.

Surprisingly few consumer crypto apps are worth recommending.
Where are they?
Are incentives misaligned, or do users only care about speculation?
Friend Tech showed that consumer apps combining speculation can thrive. But this consumer+speculation combo didn't work out for Zora it seems.
Looking for apps like these:
• @0xppl_ - Social network for tracking trades, wallet, etc.
• @rodeodotclub - Web3 Instagram
• @fantasy_top_ : KOL Card game
• @farcaster_xyz & @polymarket need no intro
• @heydotxyz social app for Lens
On the flip side, crypto+fintech consumer apps are growing in popularity:
• @GnosisDAO building CryptoFi eco: Gnosis card, EURe stablecoin, Gnosis VPN @hoprnet
• @Mantle_Official launching Mantle Bank to become Revolut of DeFi
• EtherFi just announced
• @ether_fi just announced DefiBank: non-custodial TradFi bank alternative
The recent increase in crypto cards shows a real PMF (tax avoidance? lol)
But the true narrative of crypto adoption might bypass retail consumer apps for a while, as institutional adoption gains momentum:
Stablecoins, stock tokenization, and spot ETFs represent a top-down approach, while retail consumer apps (and gaming) could've driven a bottom-up adoption of crypto.
GameFi, too, struggles this cycle.
While both paths are being explored, the Big Money appear to favor institutional crypto adoption.
Meanwhile, crypto combined+ occupies a middle ground, and retail consumer apps continue to struggle to find their PMF for now.
