?? SIDEQUEST SUNDAY: The dark side of public goods funding is much of it comes from the profits of degens in the trenches. But the thing about the trenches is its hard to see. This is why we are shipping this open source public goods for degens called Awesome Pump, the first pump[dot]fun ecosystem directory showing tools on pump[dot]fun, forks in other ecosystems, and innovation building on top of pump-mechanics, Check it out at awesomepump.fun ??

Really amazing to be a part of [REDACTED] this year with the amazing crew of ecosystem partners. We are reaching an inflection point in Web3 where user-owned AI + chain abstraction will reach the entire world in 2025 to build a better future where every person owns their data, assets, and governance. So many of the leading engineers in the world, heavily backed teams, and tech's biggest growth hackers are contributing to open source in the NEAR Protocol ecosystem. It is truly beautiful to see new projects in the ecosystem, projects we work with, grantees, new partners, and learn about new technology we plan on integrating.
