Yan Liberman says the technically correct answer for when to start returning capital to token holders is much later than anyone in crypto wants to hear.
Public companies only do buybacks and dividends at very late stage, because there's no better use of the capital for growth. The proxy is clear.
In crypto, it happens earlier. Not because the business is better positioned. Because token holders are apprehensive about what they actually own, the link between token and business is sometimes flimsy, so projects are forced to signal confidence through early distributions.

Merged mining, chain locks, zk based data availability and sidechains.
For the 9th episode of our Bitcoin and Beyond presentation series, we had the pleasure to chat with @realSidhuJag of @RolluxL2 to about scaling Bitcoin.
We discuss the extension of Bitcoin’s security through merge mining, chain locks for finality, long-range attacks on consensus, liquidity bridging, and the key differences in optimistic and zk-rollups in Bitcoin.
Jag has a very unique perspective on scaling Bitcoin and is very ethos aligned with the core Bitcoin community.
Watch today’s video to uncover what’s really happening behind the scenes in Bitcoin scaling:

59:48 Conclusions on Scaling Bitcoin
@pumpdotfun exploiter @STACCoverflow has been arrested by British law enforcement and is currently in custody.
Here's the TLDR👇
We are hearing reports that an affected party contracted a private intelligence agency to locate and arrest the exploiter @STACCoverflow. The operation was completed successfully in conjunction with the authorities of the United Kingdom in the last 24 hours.
From the limited information we've gathered, the arrest took place in London after more than 24 hours of attempting to locate @STACCoverflow and then preparing to make the arrest.
This data chart from @tokenterminal reveals that @0xPolygon has lost some ground to layer-2 scaling solutions like @arbitrum and @optimismFND in terms of transaction fees collected over the last 30 days.
Since the @0xPolygon revenue depends largely on the gas fees collected, it underwent a decline as well.
Nevertheless, there´s been a surge in accumulation 🐋of $MATIC attributed to the much-anticipated zkEVM scaling solution, which was slated to be launched yesterday 🚀
After a successful launch of zkEVM we are excited to see the growth of Polygon and projects building atop zkTech
Let’s scale Ethereum together and onboard the masses one day at a time!
