Important PSA about $mintedmerch! 🧵👇 When we launched the official @MintedMerchShop token on Clanker 34 days ago, we reserved 33% of the supply by doing a 3% dev buy a 30% clanker vault that was locked for 30 days.

in response to ttboy here who claims degen was the only successful proceeds to come out of fc, and 0xen’s post on farcaster asking why we haven’t seen any breakout successes from the ecosystems if the talent density is so high: Two points: First: I would say there HAVE definitely been some breakout successes of varying sizes over the past 5 years: from the @farcaster_xyz side: @degentokenbase @clanker_world @bankrbot @0xDeployer @neynar @rish_neynar donut @zora from the base side: AERO @HydrexFi @sportdotfunint avantis edge @rainbowdotme and many more I’m probably forgetting second: I would also argue that we sometimes suffer from unicornitis in this space, where everyone has watched one to many episodes of Silicon Valley and thinks that if it’s not a billion dollar exit, it’s not a success. The reality is that the meatspace is FULL of small to medium sized businesses that create a ton of wealth and employ half the working population in the US, and there’s no reason to believe the onchain economy won’t be similar as it matures. There are SO many examples of small to medium sized successful onchain businesses that are flourishing in this ecosystem, even despite less than ideal market conditions. Some of them may yet blow up into something larger, but even if they don’t, they are still worth celebrating imo: @BrackyHQ @betrmint @noicedotso @Veildotcash @MintedMerchShop @skycastletokens $runner @gmfarcaster @ProfWerder @nazimahmed $RIPS @0xnobi @flaunchgg @yuraoak Surge etc etc bonus argument: trying to judge the @base and farcaster ecosystems for not booming rn, while the entire crypto ecosystem is extremely bearish and retail is completely MIA is a bit like trying to draw meaningful conclusions from a drug trial without a control. Anyway, I’ve admittedly always been a glad half full kinda guy (a useful trait in this industry) so I’m sure I’m missing some nuances here. But I do think BETR days are still ahead for those bold enough to keep believing in something around here.

📒 BETRMINT Quarterly Update! 📒 It’s hard to believe, but we’re coming up on 8 months now since launching our @betrmint mini app on @farcaster_xyz and @baseapp its native token $BETR, and 3 months since our last big update. So we wanted to share a quick snapshot today of our progress over the past quarter by the numbers, plus a few moments we’re especially proud of, and some of our learnings so far this year. — First of all... What is BETRMINT? BETRMINT is a viral mini app where you can discover and win @base tokens just for supporting your favorite onchain builders and creators. — BETRMINT By the Numbers: 🩵 118 rounds hosted 🩷 125K spins spun 🩵 $215K total in-app volume 🩷 $300K total project revenue YTD 🩵 $75K paid out to featured creators & builders 🩷 $275K in prizes airdrops sent to users 🩵 6 months on Top 15 Mini App Leaderboard by volume / opens 🩷 ~10K average DAUs 🩵 37B $BETR staked (≈60% of circulating supply) 🩷 $10K in $BETR buybacks distributed to stakers since September 🩵 18,000 $BETR holders and 200K in liquidity across @Uniswap, @flaunchgg and @HydrexFi. Some Highlights From this Quarter: 🔥 Won $25K “Best Live Mini App” at the Base Onchain Summer Awards 🔥 Selected as 1 of 50 projects (out of 700 applicants) for Base Batches in Buenos Aires 🔥 Pitched BETRMINT & BETR Labs to hundreds of partners and investors at Ethereum Worlds Fair. 🔥 Invited to give a lightning talk at Farcaster Developers Day (NYC) 🔥 Shipped a brand new major UX upgrade to the mini app that the community loves 🔥 Launched a “Powered by BETRMINT” bespoke staking terminal for $mintedmerch 🔥 Dropped an exclusive BETR hoodie hat collection via @MintedMerchShop store 🔥 Featured on today’s @clanker_world Spotlight with a special Free Spin round that was fully claimed in 40 min! 🔥 Collaborated with builders & creators across the ecosystem including $DONUT, $HABS, @juujuumama, @mykcryptodev, @skycastletokens, Drawcast, @clanker_world, @tipnearn, Minted Merch, DAU mini app, @PonderOnBase, pramadan, and many more. 🔥 Beyond the app, @burrrrrberry has been running weekly poker nights and special regular sit-and-go games for BETR Believers, helping keep the community tight and spirits high during tougher market days! -- Some Things We’ve Learned: 💡 Tokens can be powerful positive-sum incentive tools when designed with intention and used with transparency. 💡 Community matters more than you think. 💡 Revenue-share staking is a strong alignment mechanism and token sink, even without lockups. 💡 Building with a live, liquid token (and all the macro noise that comes with it) is not for the faint of heart, but it’s worth it. 💡 There’s huge pent-up demand from founders and creators for turnkey onchain distribution on Farcaster and Base App. With BETR Labs, @netnose, @burrrrrberry and I are now building directly on these lessons and using BETRMINT’s proven distribution engine (plus a few new experiments 👀) to inform what we’re cooking next. 👨‍🍳 More to come soon, but let’s just say that 2025 has been a movie and we want to make sure 2026 is going to be even BETR! You keep on spinning, we'll keep on shipping!
