it’s easy to get caught up in and attribute bullish sentiment on farcaster/base to the positivity of the people/ecosystem. maybe it’s cause i only got in recently, but it’s not said niceties that make me feel bullish.

in one line: fc/base meets builders where builders are whereas traditional vc model, builders met vcs where vcs are.

and the former should’ve been the case for most projects all along. gpt wrappers accelerated this and now, this eco is democratizing it.

factors:

• fc core users being builders (and actively attracting more)

• base very hands on w eco & making products w builders in mind

• builders reinvesting in builders (time, money, etc)

honestly, it feels weird to feel so free to build when markets are tanked and i haven’t cared to raise. but every day, i just cant escape the feeling of “i feel like a kid again”. it’s this simple euphoria that helps me focus/refocus and continue onward to build something great.
