Millennials representing the meme generation well… at 69% lol

As a Gen X’er myself, this got me thinking… why are there so many Millennials here?

Let’s take a look at the common denominators of this generation and why y’all make me bullish on crypto adoption

🧵👇 Image 👉Age range: ~26-41

👉They earn less than their parents did at their age

👉They have half the net worth their parents did at their age

👉They carry more student loan debt than Gen X’ers did at their age

What do the Top 5 #ENS 30-day volume categories have in common?

✅ None are anchored to a specific language

These will dominate because we live in a multi-lingual world— domains that transcend those boundaries are at a significant advantage

However… 🧵👇 Image PLOT TWIST: Yes, key language-specific domains will of course also do well, so let’s take a look at what you might want to collect after digits and/or emojis

One of the most exciting things I'm a part of in Web3 is the Bcard network @Bcard_eth founded by @008_eth

Happy to see several of my fellow @NeoTokyoCode citizens joining in lately

What is this Web3 social movement called "Bcard" and why is it important?

A thread 🧵👇 Bcard is many things, but to me, it's a working form of a decentralized social network, facilitated in part by #ENS domains

Connections within the network are memorialized on-chain by the exchange of personalized "business card" NFTs on Polygon

So how does it work?

#ENS is drawing a lot of attention and with this attention also arrives some confusion from the uninformed, which is to be expected

Here’s another analysis for anyone new to ENS, or as a reminder for the already-initiated 🧵👇 There are still thousands of crypto-aware people who are just starting to make their acquaintance with ENS

The frequent comparison people use to try to understand ENS is with .com domains, so let’s go with that for a moment

I was a dot-com Founder/CEO in the late 90s. I remember meeting a guy in person to pay him $500 cash for my company’s future domain name. How far we’ve come.

Unpacking #ENS (Ethereum Name Service) for the uninitiated 🧵👇 Back then conducting domain name transfers was quite a tedious process (and still is). E-commerce was the big “a-ha” moment, the internet was quickly evolving from the “Information Super Highway” to “wait but we can facilitate physical B2C commerce here too”…

Recently a lecture was published by a Chinese whale ("A9" status, holding assets of $15 mil+) presenting his hypothesis that 3 & 4-digit ENS domains make sense as "the next BAYC of the domain name world." I found it profound. Here's my digest of the lecture.

🧵👇 I'm doing this because I know most of you probably wouldn't read the full lecture. If you would actually like to read the lecture yourself, here's the rough translation to English compliments of @soy_eth
