dear junior devs,. good founders don't care about your years of exp, only your ability to get stuff done. but, because it is very hard to discern that ability while hiring they rely on years of exp as a proxy . hence, if you can show founders that ability beyond reasonable doubt.

probably more important that crypto projects understand this than founder mode. partnerships is probably the biggest manifestations of going through the "motions of starting up" in our industry.
The partnership trap. When you're just getting started, it's tempting to believe an ecosystem, cap table, or collaboration will make your company a reflexive success. Success doesn't come from partnerships. Partnerships come from success. You and only you will decide your fate.

We'll be sponsoring a track in the upcoming global hackathon for the first time in partnership with @SuperteamDAO. We want to fund projects that bring utility through composability for DRiP collectors or creators, or make DRiP more fun. Now's a good time to start scheming 😎

This is a very cool feature by Tensor. Fun fact - for most @drip_haus channels, the top 100 wallets currently hold < 5% of total supply. That number is 7x higher for most blue chips. Yes it's not 🍎🍎 but just goes to show DRiP's impact in making NFTs more accessible &.
We heard you, and so we SHIPPED IT ⚛️⚡️. For compressed NFT collections, you can now:.✅ see the top 100 holders.✅ see the # of unique holders. Data updates every hour. So the question is: who's the biggest whale? 🐳

@mcuban @opensea @DevinFinzer In their current form, NFT royalties don’t make sense .- owed for perpetuity .- owed even if sold at loss .-unenforceable without compromising ownership. Isn’t it better to make them optional and incentivise compliance, while working out other monetisation avenues for artists?.

does this exist on @solana with public access? . guessing any app with a frontend (DRiP, Moonwalk. ) does this with off-chain signals (captcha, IP, fingerprint. ). but there's def room for a primitive derived from onchain data. necessary but insufficient for production use.
Kind of crazy that we’re 10 years into Ethereum and it’s still next to impossible to tell if an address is likely to be a high quality user for your app with an api call.

that's 6x, and yet - understates the opportunity. so many countries have 10-15x mobile cellular subscription as compared to broadband. multiply that by the fact that mobile usage is *much* more stickier, contextual and richer. game changer.
Here’s the thing. Last year, ~350 million desktop and laptop computers were sold. That’s a lot. But in the same period, 1.8 billion smartphones were sold. So what happens when Web3 goes mobile-first with SMS and Saga?.
