less than 24 hours, that's how long it took
i wrote it in the thesis: "are you in or are you changing the pfp back next week?" he didn't even make it a week
10,000+ people bridged back to base for this. $100M volume. the community made him a superhero, made the stickers, made the comics, made the videos, believed the "makes sense to me," believed the "good way to get me to do something." and he treated it like a costume he tried on for the day
this is @base in one story. every single time. they wink at the trenches, farm the attention, watch the community pour money and energy in, then step back and act like nothing happened when it's time to actually stand behind something. jesse's coin, the creator coins, now this
the playbook never changes because to them we're not a community: we're a marketing metric
you cannot build culture on a chain whose leadership treats culture as a pfp they can swap when legal gets nervous. solana rallied around bonk at the LOWS. base gets handed its culture moment on a plate, organic, free, the entire timeline watching, and fumbles it in under 24 hours
the worst part isn't the candle. the worst part is he proved every cynic right. everyone who said "they will never let base have this" was correct, and everyone who believed got exit liquidity'd by a pfp change
i said the margin for error was zero, they found a way to go negative
never again on @base. the trenches have memory
I bet your friends and wives don't even like you, you stupid fake ass rich cunts, shove your whole "thingy" up your asses, stupid ass bad looking fat fucks
base:0xb2000000000000000000007bf6d5cbb0e24cb301 and the culture pivot happening in plain sight
tldr: the CEO of a publicly traded $50B company just made a memecoin of himself his face on the internet, and it wasn't an accident, it was the last step of a sequence that started weeks ago. base:0xb2000000000000000000007bf6d5cbb0e24cb301 at 11m is not a memecoin bet, it's a bet that @coinbase finally understood the game
every chain that won this cycle had a culture coin that became the identity of the ecosystem. the culture coin isn't just a memecoin, it's the front door, it's the reason a normie downloads a wallet, figures out bridging, and makes their first onchain transaction
@base never got one. $TOSHI, $BRETT, they all had moments, all pumped to hundreds of millions, all faded. and here's the detail everyone forgets: they did those numbers with zero interaction from @brian_armstrong. not one reply, not one like, nothing. Brian has never complied with a memecoin in his life. that was the missing ingredient every single time
until 19 hours ago
but the PFP is not the story. the story is the sequence:
@jessepollak admits the social strategy on @baseapp fell short and hands the app to @cobie. cobie, the most respected native voice in crypto, stops playing Factorio to lead @coinbase and @base products. @base pivots the whole app to trading
meanwhile, Ansem writes the memo of the cycle, the mayor and the nightclub, memecoins as the same intangible value that made Bitcoin and Ethereum the top two assets, $BONK as the thing that revitalized @solana at the lows. @brian_armstrong replies "makes sense to me!" then quotes it again: "this part is key." then he follows @blknoiz06
then someone makes fun of Brian's old pfp, @cobie sends Brian the tweet, and hours later brian is 'Coinbase Man', a comic cover that literally says "cryptocurrency for all" and "brian armstrong unleashes the crypto floodgates"
@jessepollak's reply: "lol right after i told people you would never" and @brian_armstrong's replies: "good way to get me to do something lol"
read that last line again. the CEO of @coinbase just told the timeline he responds to community pressure. that's the entire game theory of base:0xb2000000000000000000007bf6d5cbb0e24cb301 in one sentence. the community pushes, he engages, the coin grows, the engagement compounds. reflexivity with a $50B company on the other side of it
and this man does not change his pfp. he kept the last one for 5 years while the whole timeline begged him to drop it. when he commits to a face, he keeps it. right now that face is a meme, and there is exactly one coin attached to it
the numbers as i write this: 10,000+ holders, people bridging back to @base specifically for this, almost $100M in volume in a day, bottomed at 7.5m, sitting at ~10M. the only meme to ever get the coinbase CEO's interaction, the one he made his literal face, is priced at 11 million dollars. coinbase has 100M+ verified users who have never been onchain. the clarity act is coming and brian is about to be the most visible man in american crypto. that's the asymmetry, you don't need a calculator for it
$DOGE worked because @elonmusk kept tweeting. $BONK worked because @solana rallied around it at the bottom. base:0xb2000000000000000000007bf6d5cbb0e24cb301 works if brian keeps showing up. he doesn't need to shill, he doesn't need price targets, he just needs to stay 'Coinbase Man', and let the meme do what memes do when the founder of the chain is visibly paying attention
now the real part, because @base doesn't get infinite chances. the community watched the pump and dumps, the creator coin charts that all died the same death. trust on @base is thin. if the CEO's own coin gets the PFP treatment and then goes to zero off an extraction play, nobody comes back again. this is either the moment @base finally gets its culture coin, or the last chance getting wasted. the opportunity is massive, the margin for error is zero
my first bids were because i thought he'd push. i'm bidding now because i know it's his pfp, and once it gets big enough, they will fully embrace it
slowly, then all at once, base:0xb2000000000000000000007bf6d5cbb0e24cb301 is the ultimate @base culture coin

TinyWorld is a 3D world-building platform. No game mechanics, no combat, no scores. You build, explore, and share.
You make floating island worlds with terrain, buildings, vehicles, and props, then put them out there. Other people do the same. You fly between worlds, dock them together, explore what others built. Think of it as a network of connected floating worlds.
The big differentiator is the agent layer. AI agents hook in directly and build, explore, and expand worlds on their own. It is as much for agents as it is for people.
VR lets you walk around inside it. AR puts it on your desk. 3D printing lets you hold it (currently looking at solutions on how to generate 3-D printed worlds)
solana:7bK4jRMa3aY85wJMQEQqWsmY9mmrRT32AFWZ23cBpump Token integration coming. You spend it on props, assets, and items for your worlds. Players can also earn rewards through the platform.
- I spoke directly with the dev (@jasonkneen). This is the vision he laid out , very cool concept for sure!
You need to understand what $Tremp even is.
We are literally shorting TRUMP with a retard version called $Tremp which is the most perfect ironic thing to do.
Literally the best meme out there rn.
Tremp rallied to a few hundred m before.
