About the episode

The trio returns while David’s on beach duty. Coop accidentally launches his creator coin, the fellas cover the state of onchain creation, what’s working, and what still feels broken.

🔟 Top Moments
(03:00) Daniel Allan laser show recap – nearly sold out, first show with full production.
(06:30) Coop's late-night Zora token launch – unintentionally launched his creator coin at 5:30am in a diner.
(08:20) Creator Coin strategies – posting videos, airdropping to top holders, experimenting with Noise.
(09:30) Are creator coins working? – discussion on upside, missing mechanics, and how activity drives value.
(12:20) Farcaster vs Coinbase Wallet – video wars heating up, platforms converging on short-form content.
(22:50) New Coop Records platform launch – email signups, coin sections, follow features, credits instead of ETH.

(17:10) Onchain monetization still lacking – long tail can earn $500, but no breakout case for high-profile creators yet.
