friendly reminder: @liftdotfun grants are live both for @arc and @robinchoodcrypto tokens
priority goes to builders thinking long-term, same as us. if you're still shipping after the meta rotates, that's exactly who we wanna back
xitter.cf/liftdotfun/status/2107…
$100k in $LIFT behind projects launching on @liftdotfun
lift grants will support projects launched through lift.fun and give strong teams more fuel to keep building after day one
if you’ve still got questions, drop them below or dm us
launch something worthy. we’ll back it ⬆️
a token can make your first 1,000 users show up for completely different reasons than you intended
some come for the product. some for the chart. some because their friend told them it's going to 10x
now imagine trying to make a product decision that keeps all three happy
that's one thing i've been thinking about while building lift's tax routes and dividend tools. tokenomics isn't just about where the fees go. it changes who you attract and what those people expect from you
and those expectations can get expensive fast
i can close my laptop. lift can't cause it doesn't take weekends
buybacks, burns, payouts. all running on-chain without me or touching a thing
last days alone:
→ $310.73 in fees collected
→ ~ 200k $LIFT bought back & burned
watching the stuff i already built run without me is a different kind of satisfaction
back to the code on monday
a $100m fund doesn't create good projects. it reveals them
money can buy a small team another year of runway, better devs, or access to real users. but it can't give a product a reason to exist
the projects worth backing are already building before there's a grant to apply for
@vladtenev hinted at more support for early builders on @RobinhoodCrypto. and if the rumored program proves real, some of those teams could finally get the resources they need
hope it goes to people writing code, not 500 new pitch decks written overnight. thoughts?
the most bullish robinhood chain announcement might be the one they haven't made yet
@vladtenev said recently that the chain is still a big priority, early builders matter to them, and there's more coming
now there's a rumor going around from someone citing robinhood product that a 9 figure builder program is on the way
not confirmed atm. so just treating it as a rumor until RH says otherwise
but if that number is real, @robinhoodcrypto isn't just asking builders to show up. they're getting ready to seriously fund the ecosystem they want to exist
distribution is already there. capital definitely isn't the issue either
give good founders enough reason to stay long-term and things can move very fast.
also seeing a few projects on RH rn that i'd really like to see launch through lift
gonna make sure they know we exist
seeing more and more web3 gaming projects on my tl lately
the thesis was never wrong: people grind for tokens anyway. they've been doing it in wow and runescape for 20 years, just without the withdraw button
last cycle the games were spreadsheets with a jpeg on top. this time the rails are better - and rh with 3m retail users who already have the app installed is exactly where it gets interesting
week 2 on RH: the trenches didn't just wake up, they got out of bed
while everyone waits for the next move from @VladTenev and @RobinhoodApp, the rh-trenches are waking up on lift
those activity is exactly the kind of signal we wanted to see for such a quiet market
still early. still a lot to improve. but the direction feels right
lift off⬆️
reading some lift grant pitches these days. here's what separates the fundable from the forgettable imo
- you know who's gonna use it. not "millions of crypto users." tell me who your first 100 users are and why they'd bother showing up
- the token actually belongs in the product. if i can remove it from your pitch and nothing changes, you probably don't need one
- you've thought past launch day. how do you get people back next week? what are you gonna build when the initial volume dries up?
show me you've thought this through and you're serious about building it long-term
watching the pf's rolex thing unfold is pretty funny
you can spend months improving your launchpad or just make the entire tl argue about a few watches in one afternoon. can't deny they understand attention
still not adding rolex loot boxes to @liftdotfun lol
trenches might be the cheapest user acquisition funnel in crypto
a guy comes to ape a $20 meme coin. an hour later he's funded a wallet, learned to swap, paid gas and checked out 5 other tokens
congrats, your casino just onboarded another user without a single tutorial
but getting him onchain doesn't mean he'll stick around
that's where the rest of the ecosystem comes in. give him something worth doing beyond chasing the next dog
memes bring the traffic. what you build around them decides how much of it stays
memes bootstrap attention. tech retains it
every chain cycle has the same arc: dogs and cats bring the crowd, then the crowd looks around for something to actually use. chains die in that gap
the pads that survive are the ones that can serve both: a casino floor AND a listing desk for real ideas
that's the whole reason lift has tax routes, dividends, snipe protection. the dog coin и the tech coin launch through the same door
robinhood expansion is going pretty damn well so far
been checking out projects launching on lift and talking to builders who wanna launch. ngl, really like seeing more tech and utility coins coming in with actual ideas behind them
nothing against dogs, cats or the rest of the zoo. love y'all lol
but the meme market is getting a bit overcrowded with those
give me a good narrative, some well thought-out utility and a product people actually wanna use, and i think you've got a pretty strong runner on your hands
wanna bring a lot more of it to lift near days
the biggest reason i put @liftdotfun on robinhood chain has almost nothing to do with the chain
3m+ mau. ~10m daily tx in september
but the part i care about more is what's sitting behind those numbers: robinhood already has users with money, existing habits, and a team that knows how to get retail to pay attention
most new chains spend years trying to manufacture distribution from zero. @robinhoodapp doesn't need to teach millions of people what robinhood is. they need to give them onchain products worth using. that's a very different starting point
imo the real robinhood chain szn hasn't even started yet. but we're close enough to it
from day one lift started as a launchpad. that label gets less accurate than a year ago
today's builders need not only a create button, but discovery, trading, stocks, analytics, and liquidity tools. same as a reason for degens to come back after day one
i'd rather keep pulling those pieces closer together than send users through five different apps & chains
still a lot to build here on @liftdotfun ⬆️
