Andreessen Horowitz gave this clown $30 million to build Twiddler on Eritherium. 🤡🤣

Fastest way to waste $30m
Fastest way to dump tokens on retail and turn a profit on your investment. A16Z have mastered this particular scam.
is he the one who built fartcaster ?
Why did he block you?
Because he knows I’m right.

Ha. Joke’s on him. I’d do it for $3 million and my finished product (none) would be just as valuable as everything else based on shitcoinery (nil).
Well that’s one approach to build it, if he fails it’ll strengthen nostr right, if he succeeds - we’ll have to learn and adapt it to nostr,
we win in all cases, why be negative with people and other founders especially over fucking email registration?
look at how many users he’s got in the past month and how many nostr got
look at how many bots are on nostr vs farcaster
look at how many projects launched in a month on farcaster vs nostr
people aren’t ready to go fully decentralized yet and they aren’t ready to switch to something that isn’t at least matching the UX of current mass market platforms
being a designer myself, it’s very easy to beat UX of facebook or instagram, if we just copy it and remove ads - it’ll get people to switch already, we can already zap people too - that’d be a game changer
farcaster gives you an option to buy its token with credit card, now imagine if you want to top up sats - what’s that process gonna look like if you don’t own any bitcoin which most people don’t?
I’m being negative?
I woke up to see that someone tried to register an account under my email that was scraped from a database hack on a social network for ETH addicts.
I reacted as one might expect by trying to find out if others had gotten similar messages and I saw a lot of people had.
The CEO responded me on Twitter after I pointed out the differences between how their centralized email registration compares to creating an npub, and I believe I was being more than generous with him in my responses.
But then that shitcoining ass-clown fucker blocked me. 😆
It really shows that a16z’s entire business is built on management fees and carry, not outcomes.
They couldn’t even come up with a decent name for it. Sounds like a bad sci-fi series.
In case you guys aren't aware, A16Z is aggressively trying to meme its way into defense and industrial technology. As usual, they are doing affinity scam approach, but this sort of scam is more durable, and encroaches on people doing real things. Those who know me, know I got into bitcoin because of the gross incompetence of VCs while I built a technology so valuable, it was actually an IQ test that was universally failed outside the DoD and industry -- yes, the VCs are actually more commie than the government!
So many bitcoiners are still coping and refusing to recognize how fucked up an inefficient the fake capitalism is. Even within bitcoin, most find the truth too painful to bear and simply ignore or dismiss it. A16Z has 7 people for "American Dynamism". ZERO technical people. Marc Andreessen is mocking founders and selecting for those willing to submit to his disgusting humiliation ritual.
Today may not be the day, but there will come a day when you inherit the Earth. There will be a day when the valor stolen from real engineers is returned to its rightful owners through the free flow of market forces. This so much more exciting than a rise in personal consumption power could ever be, at least for those who ever felt an urge to build something of substance. There is a great cost to shaping civilization too soon... but there is another sort of cost that comes with facile optimization of simply "dying with the most bitcoin". If I can consider this balance with orders of magnitude less bitcoin than you, you can too.
