Here’s my whole take on this
@bankrbot token drama for
@tinyhumansai
First of all, Steven has every right to accept or reject endorsing a token he never asked any of us to deploy for the project in the first place. Yes, he could have communicated much earlier and much better about having no intentions of integrating a token to the project and stopped multiple people from getting rekt but that is the price we as a trading community in defi pay for speculation. It did piss me off as well making me do all sorts of name calling but when i sat down and thought about this with a calm head, here are my honest thoughts.
None of these would happen if there weren’t bad actors in this space who Steven rightfully pointed out that bundled the supply and would dump on your heads in case of a full endorsement, not to mention the legal implications he would have to face tying the token directly to the project. Yes, I’m aware supply control is good for any token to run, but supply control in the hands of good team and with bad actors are two different things. And in this case, it wasn’t aware who was the cto team or even pushing this. We saw it a few days ago what happened with
$TSG
There’s a lesson in there for all of us as a community coz what I’m about to say will hurt most of us but it’s the truth. Crypto as a community is Toxic and Wild af and if things don’t go their way, they tend to get even more toxic and aggressive in their approach and this is exactly what happened with this please bro. You all need to learn to be more professional and sophisticated in your approach in trying to onboard someone who didn’t come to you to launch a token for them, rather you did it yourselves. Give them time to breath and think about it rather than incessantly spam and annoy them.
Maybe
@0xDeployer @igoryuzo @Dannyhbrown could find a way around it to make sure there’s no harassment of the devs who are actually shipping while they’re onboarded to bankr ecosystem, coz what bankr is giving is something only an open source Launchpad like it can give. Free fund-raising for actual devs who build and ship but don’t have access to VCs/Funds but need the funds to keep shipping.
My final take? I’m not against please bros, but please be more professional in trying to communicate and onboard the devs. You like the tech and someone launched the token? Trade it for your liking, but don’t make it your lifes mission to harass the dev for endorsing it. If the community is good and well rallied, if the token is well launched and no bad actors are involved, you guys can professionally try to onboard the dev without harassing them, the endorsement will happen sooner or later. You have many examples right infront of your eyes in the form of
$GITLAWB $KELLY and many others that weren’t a self launch but started as please bros and eventually got the full endorsement from the devs.
