Nick Shirley trying to explain his creator coin is absolutely hilarious
INTERVIEWER: I heard you also made a coin of some kind?
SHIRLEY: I did not…well, I didn’t make a coin, I just joined a platform where you can monetize your content. And there…actually, so yeah it is a coin, you can then monetize your content. Just similar to like how you upload on TikTok, you can upload your stuff on there. It’s just based off Coinbase.
BREAKING: Farcaster finally makes long anticipated announcement, Dan Romero former coinbase acquisition shutting down rumors.

allegedly Robinhood selling a private wallet to Base social pivot.
Jesse Pollak not available for comment.
I like a lot of things about Base but I really don’t like the constant “we’re going to change the world!” messaging from Base leadership
Reminds me of the early days of Facebook and Google when they acted like they were changing the world for good, and we all know how that played out
Let’s be real, a large tech company is out to make money first and foremost. Nothing wrong with that, but I don’t think it’s right to frame it as some noble mission

They should use a rolling average instead of getting the count for every calendar month
