Please tell me how public data and analytics are distortion?
Please tell me how Twitter and TikTok are not inflating views?
Please educate me as to the strategy around the content distribution plans right now?
Please help me understand your thinking for how to link media spending w/ on-chain adoption?
I have said on many occasions - publicly and privately that I think you’re a great storyteller.
You’re engaging, you’re interesting and you’re funny. People warm to you.
I am critiquing the (current) WagMedia/Kusamarian strategy - and ultimately all media spending that has so far spent well over $3m in Kusama and probably similar in Polkadot…
When we bring in the events spending and other educational stuff, the treasuries have spent over $20m which in crypto is a drop in the pan, but back in the real world this is insane.
I pointed this out well ahead of the HACN stuff which began mid May and came as so much of a surprise to most people, because to me it was blindingly obvious this was coming.
I am pointing out issues, believe it or not to help. Instead I just get shitty messages, passive aggressive mentions appealing to the mob, with other well respected members piling in.
I can take this, I’ve had much worse, but this is behaviour is happening a lot to those who do not have the ability or the experience or the confidence to respond - I see that as bullying, and I don’t like it.
This is why I hate the attention economy, and now the way treasuries divide talent and pit everyone against each other and why I have been for a long time campaigning for us funding directions over domains, because then we unite people within cross-disciplinary collectives.
I have been careful to critique ideas and organisations, not people - even with KappaSigmaMu, that used comedy to critique ideas.
I’m not perfect, and i’m certainly not impervious to criticism - and trolling.
I’m giving this feedback now - ahead of your reports, because if you don’t think about some of the points I’m making before you come and propose again, I think token holders will be more educated and you will find it harder to continue getting funded.
Take it or leave it, its up to you. Believe it or not I would like to see your work continue.
