but I think among actual normies
obviously in my crypto circles I know a ton
and I think I know a single digit number of people who currently own BTC in my IRL circles
forever
i have been very vocal about BTC
it is crazy but true
i think 99.9% of people I know do not yet own any satoshis
that few?
99.9% of people I know / meet in person think it is crazy to collect NFT.
i think
it will be both
but in time
scale is easy
protocols are mature
it is easier
first though online
in time the physical world should be able to react
it is doable
but 2030s
this is not probably the next few years except proof of concept
that react to the above
around the world
imagine charmed spaces and objects
and even holdings of other NFTs
category rep
rep
but card-specific TDH
TDH sure
we can represent anything
5-10 years
world is going to be robotic and AI soon

But Punk promised to bake cookies and put them in a box that can only be opened with a certain TDH! :glasses1:
were all leading up to this moment
it is like decades of our lives (I have known him since we were six years old)
it is weird
but right now 2021 to present we are in a complete mindlock flow state
on other things
we have worked together before
i've known him since we were little kids
but with @[6529er] I can call him up with some absurd vibe request and he will decode process and convert it into must-have art
we have some of the worlds best artists in the memes
it is like the mini baby version of Jobs/Ive I think this is must be what they must have felt like working together just with several more 000s
The level of mind-lock he and I have right now is a beautiful thing
true beyond the fact that all @[6529er] NFTs are unbeatable
Btw if the brain is successful that brain nft will be a grail
correct. 2021-2022 cycle I could have easily raised 10s of thousands of ETH by promising a metaverse, selling land, etc. I did not for two reasons:
1. I won't launch a centralized product in general (to retail). the fund is obviously centralized but there the LPs (investors) are some of the richest and most crypto sophisticated people in the world, I spoke to each of them individually, explained exactly what risk/reward they were taking
2. The goal is a decentralized network state that will be here in 100 years. Its birth has to be pure, its heart has to be pure for it to work.
This is so rare and fascinating. Most (if not all) crypto projects work to create hype and anticipation around an upcoming product. What is even crazier is that 6529 wont generate hype and earn a few thousands ETH while the system is still centralized and in his hands, but only when is its ours collectively.
the other difference is that some things in BTC worked out a bit differently than I would have been ideal in my view (too centralized).
so this time, I am going to try to bend the arc of history on the technical level myself.
so my NFT thesis, you can see the patterns:
1. Permissionless "everything else"
2. 2021 is 2013.
3. ultra-high-risk given #2
4. Put in what you can afford to lose
5. May not work, but the risk/return is there
6. Don't fumble the NFTs by losing them (HW wallets, SAFEs, etc)
Everything is exactly the same except with NFTs you do have to pick them. It is not as easy mode as BTC where it was 100% BTC was the "The One"
was the first major exchange
Why did people use Mt Gox? this was pre-Coinbase?
