be obsessed about making progress not perfection gm folks

here’s a food for thought: everyone in crypto talks about attention like it's already priced in. and in a way, they're not wrong … sort of. say… you buy a memecoin when a celebrity tweets, you ape the narrative before it hits mainstream and you watch liquidity chase mindshare every single cycle. the signal was always there. but here's what nobody was actually trading: the attention itself. and i don’t mean buying a memecoin riding the hype…that’s just indirect exposure at best. i mean the actual signal underneath all of it (the mindshare and the thing that moves capital before the market even figures out why.) crypto built derivatives markets for commodities, liquid markets for governance tokens, rwas, yield etc… essentially built perpetuals for basically everything with a price feed. and somehow the one thing driving all of it never got a proper market. @trendlefi is fixing exactly that. their dollar of attention (DoA) index pulls real engagement data from x, reddit, and youtube every single minute. likes, impressions, replies, views, comments are weighed, normalized and decay-adjusted so yesterday’s noise doesn’t bleed into today’s signal. the whole thing runs on pure maths. that removes a lot of black boxes and assumptions. then they put a derivatives market on top of it. i’m talking about: > long or short directions > leveraged positions > funding rate that acts as a crowding tax when one side gets too one-sided. the PnL moves with the index right now you can trade attention on public figures, tokens, events and even topics. some markets are already doing six figures in volume. interestingly enough, this is still in its beta phase. monad as the home also makes sense when you think about it. attention moves in minutes, not days and if we are being honest, leveraged perps on fast-moving cultural signals don't work on chains with slow finality… monad gives them the throughput and settlement speed the product actually needs to function. the timing isn't accidental either… we have witnessed different iterations of trading attention without actually trading attention. memecoins were an attempt, fan tokens were another attempt. even the narrative-driven altcoin rotation was an attempt. all were proxies… and in a way not capturing the real essence. @trendlefi is just the first version that puts you on the actual underlying.

just like @oxtochi has said several times, the whole crypto space is becoming more efficient. the room for experimentation that was available in the early years of crypto is disappearing. the dumb money, and everything else in between was a result of that experimentation. now that is closing fast, easy opportunities to make money is also going. and trust me, it’s only going to get harder as mass adoption scales and saturation increases. but i think opportunities to make money will still be there… just not the way it has been. perps, jobs, exposure to tradfi assets onchain, etc… ofc, they require one form of expertise, liquidity and network… one that may not be readily available to everyone. which is pretty much the usual order of life. best thing you can do is try to build/grow one or more of the aforementioned to give you an edge over others

tbh yeah, now it makes sense why humanity devs hacked themselves. better to hack yourself, extract money and shut down after a few months or years than to get hacked by an external team and still shut down with no money

gmm the pieces won’t move themselves.

was writing out something that came to mind to put out and suddenly reading it made me realize that it’d make sense for a great intro if i was talking about a project. will probably save it for later when i want to talk about a project i find interesting pretty sure i’m not the only one who’s experienced such

it’s monday morning. get up and get to work gmm frens

what does an average of 100 replies per day get you? averaged around 100 replies per day over the course of the previous week. what i did: > replied to mutuals on my tl and posts i found interesting > quoted tweets i also found interesting the numbers look small, but it's proof of growth. looking to do bigger numbers this week... let's cook

unrelated, but i love how this guy writes. zero gassing or dih riding rn yeah, but he has a way of weaving words together to keep you hooked till the end. i’ve read an article and several writeups and qt’s on the platform he talked about, but this one hit different. a man to be studied tbh

i have been giving this post a lot of thought lately… and only one question has been bugging me. “what can you do consistently to stay relevant enough to hit that breakthrough” we all know right now that writing airdrop guides on how to farm protos in different ecos is basically pointless (not useless but essentially a -ve endeavor) also, thanks to ai, anyone can basically get an eli5 on any protocol or happening in the crypto space. and when you factor out how fried people’s attention span are… the dilemma becomes more complex. still trying to figure it out here…

What if you could own Apple, Tesla or the S&P500 on-chain? No broker, no borders. No "market is closed". That's not a dream. That's what @ShiftRWA is here for. Solana just made things seamless🤭 N/B; This is not a financial advice DYOR. This is educational content only💯💡 🧵
