The Investor Without Money: Creator Coins
Farcaster Version: https://farcaster.xyz/chasesommer/0x084efa22 I finally decided to make a "creator coin", which in my definition is just a coin you assign to your account/brand. So for me, it's $chasesommer - pretty simple. At first I thought it was pretty dumb - mostly because the people who did it were usually doing scammy pump and dumps.

From what I’ve encountered in my research, gaming related NFTs fall into the following categories:Profile PicturesTradeable Game AssetsNon-Tradeable Game AssetsComposable Game AssetsCharacter as a NFTBefore I start, I want to make it clear that these categorizations have some overlap.

Pixels Review and Ramblings
Pixels is a cozy farming game, like Stardew Valley, but it’s a web3 version including features like NFT collection characters (not just profile pictures), land ownership, and a token called $PIXEL. While critics might say it’s just a more boring version of it’s web2 versions, it genuinely has some appeal to gamers because the game is simple and fun, not just because you can earn money from it. There are things to be learned from this game even if it’s not your cup of tea! Pros:Genuinely inter...

I myself do believe in the web3 vision, but at the same time I do not drink the Kool-Aid on web3 and ha...

How I know the web2 era is almost over
Web2 reach has maxed out market reach, is in the process of extracting all value from its networks, and has arrived as common sense for all businesses.
