I think this is evidence that taking big swings like that does not make sense when you’re running a public blockchain
It’s understandable for web2 companies like Meta to take big swings and blow billions of dollars on failures
But a public blockchain is a different beast. You have an entire ecosystem of people who have literally put their time and money into building on this platform
To try to take big swings with zero buy in from the community is basically a kamikaze mission, which was apparent very early on to a lot of people in the Base community
