Today, it feels like DeSo is roughly where Solana was around Dec 2020 (~70M mkt cap)

For Solana, the catalyst was increasing gas fees on ETH

But what will the catalyst for DeSo be? 🧵

One bet is high-profile and/or mass censorship on centralized social media

What is "acceptable" to discuss in a public forum is growing ever narrower (Overton Window is shrinking)

As people get frustrated and look for alternatives, they'll find shockingly little aside from DeSo

Users will continue to grow weary of social media giants and demand more data privacy, ownership, and earning avenues. 

DeSo will be well-positioned to swoop up disillusioned and discontented defectors. 

A few high-profile converts that invite their audience will be enough to act as the catalyst.

Who: We’re a DAO,DAO DAO of developers and blockchain enthusiasts focused in investing in DeSo & decentralized social media-focused content creators.

What: We intend to help content creators pivot from Web2 and, in the process, enjoy a means of supporting their art, writing, directing, or whatever professional pursuits fuel them. Our goal is to help the most amount of creators possible, giving them the tools to make savvy business decisions, enabling them to deliver the most meaningful life for them and their families, with income stability and discretionary earnings the residue of their hard work and forethought.

Where: Los Angeles, Belfast, San Francisco, and the Metaverse.

When: Our principals have been on DeSo (previously BitClout) from the first month it made a worldwide splash.

Why: There are funds designed to support the DeSo and other decentralized social ecosystems, like the Octane Fund, but we hope to build relationships with creators, give them the tools and capital they need to grow, and then introduce them to a community of like-minded professionals intent on building as successful a career as their talents would permit.

How: Getting involved can be as simple as commenting on a Substack post, joining our DAO, or being a mentor to creators hoping to build a transformative following.

To me, the feelings around DeSo feel more similar to ETH around the same time. There was initially a ton of hype around speculative assets (ICO vs creator coins) and some of the early applications were just starting to be released (Compound/AAVE vs Stori/Pearl).

IMO, the catalyst will be folks making significant income from one of these apps (most likely DAODAO) much like yield farming kicked off DeFi summer. 

Also similar to ETH, DeSo is set up to have a chain reaction of primitives that take off (DAOs, social apps, creator tokens, NFT's, etc).

I think we’re starting to see some potential catalysts 😁

What a great post and so many intesting ideas in the comments! 😁👍

There could be more than one catalyst as we have many different types of app.

Some ideas:

- An app (maybe @pearl - I havent seen it yet) provides a better and at least as easy to use Patreon type experience. Content creators need to be able to look at Patreon vs Pearl and see that there is less friction to create a subscripton in Pearl.
For example a page like this except subscribing creates a deso account under the hood: https://www.patreon.com/InnuendoStudios (@zirlcles are going along the right lines for ease of use IMO) - with metamask integration.

- Unique features such as interactive 3D NFTs (which can be VR experiences) on all social feeds so its as easy to jump into the metaverse from your feed as it is to watch a youtube video. (working on soutions for this with @martijnvanhalen who has a really good looking iframe based UI design)

- Twitch integration. Embed twitch streams on feeds, (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/embed/everything) perhaps botmaster @itsAditya could work out a tighter integration using bots?

Dunno. But just waiting for it to happen isn't a plan
