I honestly don’t understand why Jesse decided to launch $Jesse on Zora and announce it publicly when he knows snipers exist. It makes no sense to me. What exactly is he trying to prove with this coin? That “anyone” can build in the creator economy? Because if that’s the message, the only thing it keeps proving is the opposite.
Right now, the creator economy only works if you’re already somebody the CEO of X, Y, Z, a known founder! If an average person or some random TikTok kid tried the same thing, it would be unrealistic to make them believe they could succeed organically. The system isn’t built for normal creators; it’s built for people who already have a spotlight.
So I’m struggling to see the point. Is Jesse trying to show that creators can launch coins? Or is he unintentionally proving that unless you already have status, reach, and influence, there’s no real “creator economy” to participate in?
