The Yay/Nay portion was poignant. Seems most of us agree on: - fixing inflation to the treasury - reducing overall inflation but not so much that we disincentivize validators and/or retail stakers - systematically purchasing stablecoins as a cash management strategy within the treasury - no fixed cap …but instead focus on balancing burning mechanisms against a less aggressive issuance …similar to Ethereum
Regarding 1st question: If you tell me you are going to convert treasury to stables I'm gonna dump everything now and come back when you finished converting & spending them.. 😑 Guys please be smarter. Also, ofc you wanna spend, cause you (with exception of Giotto) didn't put the money like the community of investors, but instead are getting paid by the treasury! There is a strong bias here...
Exactly Mythical onboarding and Mythicals Success on Polkadot will be our best marketing.. Not wrapping a plane. Also Agree with no one should hear the words XCM or Asset hub.. Everything should be done easily without knowing what any of that is. Lastly we need to find ways to bring as much value to the DOT token as possible. (Reduction of inflation, Core time burn, Cap the Supply, Plaza, and need more).
agree we need a update so no more having to transfer between chains, example having to transfer into hydra for a swap and out of hydra back to wallet. i want and this is important, 1click transactions for defi or the retail will continue to ignore DOT. this is the clear advantage and pull for retail towards the likes of SOL NEAR SUI
so glad to hear the guy say all this moving around should be seamless, in the background, done automatically. If anything, both Dot and Cosmos should solve this.
I am a HODL of DOT and KSM. I have a vested interest in seeing a massive adoption of Polkadot technology. For a start, let us embrace a better documentation. I can help if someone can show me where to start.
Regarding 2nd question (Giotto's marketing & VCs theory): Can a VC ask a team of Polkadot devs to learn & build on Solana instead? I doubt it. They will instead pick the team that already wants & can build on Solana. Do numbers show you are right, Giotto? How many entrepreneurs want to build on Polkadot and cannot find capital?
good conversation point about AWS, i view DOT as industry blockchain. retail the public will never know its on DOT, but i see a future and revenue growing. the question is how this can translate into DOT value.
Imho I think best marketing ideas should be proposed and best three/five should be explained in live stream and then community should decide which one is best in gov. I think wide majority of community token holders definitely want what is best for their investment.
Mythos can be an example for other gaming projects, we need Polkadot ambassadors to go to gaming companies convincing them to migrate to Polkadot, showing Mythos as a proof of successful migration to Polkadot.
If we dont like Moby Dick's scattered, amateur approroach to wooing VCs, then having a salaried curator team for organizing/vetting bounties seems good. What about an ecerpinced team to survey projects working on other chains with lesser tech to SHOW how their "Netflix" could be better on DOT? Polkadot needs it's Avengers of OUTREACH/marketing, not just Butman.
Also outsource economic/marketing/branding and business strategies to actual professionals in their respective field, and not some self studied software developer who happened to have read a book or two on marketing or business strategy....
Redbull is an insane big Community , from racing to music and other urban sports. Is it really because Redbull want people to buy and feel good about Redbull, or is it that Redbull wants to expand their community/ fanbase / support & talents to do the marketing for them? The association with Redbull ofcourse is the energydrink at the end of the day, but many people know Redbull never touched/drank it, but do support Red bull through they favourite sportteam or athlete or artist or muscician and own a shirt or cap with a redbull logo on it (even if they do not drink it) I'd wish people went and bought Polkadot and feel good, the same way they feel good about buying Redbull. I'd wish also for Polkadot people buy indirectly by supporting they favourite sportteam or athlete or artist or muscician, but never touched Polkadot, maybe never will directly, but do indirect marketing for Polkadot. For NVidia, How many people asked me what Nvidia is only after it reached peak performance on the stock charts because they never heard of it before, meanwhile Nvidia is running on most people personal laptops, consoles and other devices and they never knew or never cared to know.
