ya i talk abt work a lot but hear me out imo our case offers better models: • how you build and earn as a team (alongside users) • how you define a protocol's success (make, don't take) • how you define stakeholders (expansively) i'm proud of how we're pushing org logic

day 1 now imagine when we really get going

Imagine being the willing buyer of lindy effect premiums in an industry this fresh and new. Can you even remember half the incumbents from last cycle or how quickly they faded to irrelevance? History repeats and some of you are buying Blockbuster and AOL w/ worse fundamentals.

damn

afaict @AerodromeFi might be the only org on the planet that does something better than just buybacks public good wallets buyback and use AERO to aid growth, but nobody has any claim to them so it's like a burn (everyone owns more of the pie) but it also puts capital to work

Unironically, I think most alt-L1s will become L2s @Celo showed the playbook: – Halved inflation from 2% to 1% – Reduced block times from 5s to 1s – Eliminated 300k+ lines of legacy code – Fully integrated into Ethereum’s ecosystem, the largest dev community in crypto – Carbon…

Last epoch, Aerodrome generated over $2.3M in revenue while $AERO emissions exceeded $AERO locks by only 1%—earning yield while functionally maintaining circulating supply.

these wallets are going to bitterly compete against one another. it's not a straightforward play for most a lot of native crypto companies attacking this space are going to get steamrolled if they don't have an angle one thing they all must do, tho: get the best trade execution

Most don't realize but, @AerodromeFi is everything the $ETH community wishes Uniswap could have been: ☑️ 100% of protocol rev redirected back to voters ☑️ Zero team unlocks, no extraction to insiders ☑️ Regular protocol token buybacks ☑️ Aligned incentives across all…

onchain trading, capital formation, and payments are nearing the point where they’re just better products than offchain alternatives. once we cross that threshold things will change fast

Budget proposal for Optimism retro moved from 87m $OP ➡️ 20m $OP after @labsGFX pushback. GFX Labs always guarding that tokenholder chicken coop.

I won't be running for the @Optimism Grants Council this coming season. Will just be too busy with @VelodromeFi and @AerodromeFi. Huge things ahead, and I need to direct all my energy there. Feels a little sentimental. My work with Optimism – including my lobbying for the GC's…

now imagine startup CEOs that have already cashed out over 8 figures on massively inflated token valuations well before their products do anything or make any money

I’m not even going to format or explain this more bc it feels like giving up too much of the endgame but @VelodromeFi built tech to deliver better cross chain swap execution than even bridge aggregators can. Right now. Live. Directly on the swap page.

anyway, let's talk about growing market segments

yes, we are asking this it's a good question, some would say the best

Step 1: Launch front end fee, direct to Labs Step 2: Fracture liquidity with UniV4 Step 3: Say only our FE can fix this Step 4: Profit (for equity holders)
