One-person media company, the era of the Founder for all
What are you prepared to do?
There are two futures facing us now: one is spider capitalism, and the other is crypto capitalism. ...blockquote>

AI fuels bubbles, moral criticism is worthless, the key is how to deal with bubbles and utilize them, a16z Viewed as media, globalized expression generates emotional resonance, thereby securing control over hot topics and issues. Understanding this is crucial to comprehending a16z's long-term bet on SocialFi: they could invest in 99 projects and none would make money, but they absolutely could not miss out on the one that would. AI-powered tools—reading, writing, editing, and even publishing and managing—have drastically lowered the barrier to entry for individuals, to the point where marginal costs are practically zero. Individuals have become part of a vast network of agents. Musk has long been adept at leveraging this media influence. He is Tesla's media, Sun Ge is the media for TRC-20 USDT, and Peter Thiel is the media for Western civilization. They are all one person, one person's media company. Daily tweets are as important as SpaceX's exhaust plume; the desire to express oneself is the propellant for exploring Mars. Furthermore, the relics of this AI bubble have been locked in advance: AI Coding/Vibe Coding has become commonplace. Even if GPT-5 is not entirely satisfactory, Kimi K2 is sufficient. Image Description: A New Wave of Layoffs Image Source: @Layoffsfyi Entrepreneurship is becoming increasingly personalized, or rather, gang-like. The pinnacle of traditional hierarchical systems is not the administrative system, but the KPIs and 996 work schedule of large companies. The fact that humans are less efficient than GPUs is becoming increasingly real. The Luddite movement targets large machines, and smashing GPUs will not damage Nvidia's five trillion dollar company. This doesn't mean humans are being forced out of the workforce by AI and reduced to cyberstreet vendors. Rather, it means humans are coordinating the production system under AI. This is a process that requires a price, the price being the labor of humans. Media and code are becoming cheaper man-made natural resources than air and water. Everyone must learn to coexist with them, and the crypto industry happens to excel at this. Conclusion: Super-individuals, AI Agents, another wave of mass entrepreneurship. Starting with Peter Thiel's critique of capitalism, we see the stumbling of industrial and financial/information capitalism. While AI capitalism may still be convincing, crypto capitalism is still in its infancy. Cryptography is, in essence, a reshaping of capitalism's core concepts, its programming, modification, and misuse. In the AI era, with a double surplus of capital and industrial goods, crypto experiments are no less significant than aerospace or nuclear fusion. Crypto practitioners, especially entrepreneurs, need to manage the relationship between media and code effectively, and use new productivity architectures and systems to defeat competitors—this is not far off. Giant waves, giant waves, ever growing! Encrypt! Encrypt! Quickly muster your strength and shoulder the responsibility for the rise and fall of AI!
