การโต้ตอบทางสังคมบนพื้นฐาน NFT: แทนที่จะชอบ จะดีกว่าถ้าใช้เหรียญกษาปณ์

Let’s go back to the end of 2021, which was the peak of the NFT craze.

If you only bought and didn’t sell, you might look back on that year like that chihuahua with memories flooding your mind. Valuations for NFT collectibles reached ridiculous levels, communities clamored for rare features, and new hot projects were launched every day. Almost all of these projects relied heavily on the concept of scarcity, with limited supply — 5,000, 10,000 or more, good times.

As the industry moves past the NFT craze (although that craze is still here), we’re seeing various NFT-related token standards and minting methods emerge:

• 1155 : Version number of the same NFT. The Doodles: Certified Viral collection is an example where there are tens of thousands of versions of each NFT.

• Soulbound โทเค็นส : Tokens that are bound to a wallet address and are non-transferable.

• Unlimited casting based on time limits : This approach was popularized by digital artists, introducing unique burning, casting, and other gamification mechanics.

• ERC-6551 : Token-binding accounts, allowing NFTs to hold other NFTs.

• ERC-404 : Allows standard non-fungible tokens to be converted into a certain amount of fungible tokens.

While prices for many rare collectibles have dropped dramatically, or even to zero, I’ve observed two trends:

• NFTs have an ever-increasing level of functionality.

• NFTs are becoming everywhere.

These two trends are obvious, but I want to focus on the second one. To visualize this, here is the situation:

Try Excalidraw

Note that this does not mean there won’t be valuable projects with a limited supply in the future, or that current projects have no value.

Base, Rodeo, Zora

Over the past month or so, I’ve used and observed three app platforms that really make the theme of “unlimited casting based on time limits” stand out.

ฐาน

ฐาน recently shared their Onchain Summer event, with over 2 million unique wallets minting over 24 million on-chain assets, generating over $5 million in on-chain revenue for builders, creators, and projects.

The Onchain Summer Highlights video in the post is also an NFT, and over 54,000 NFTs have been minted so far.

Rodeo

This app, which was released about 3 months ago and was developed by the Foundation team , reminds me of Instagram from simpler times.

Working principle introduction:

• Users can post their artwork, photos or any content

• Followers can mint these contents at a fixed price of 0.0001 ETH (about 25 cents) within 24 hours

• The feed is populated based on the accounts you follow or the content they produce. In this case, the accounts you follow become “influencers.” In the screenshot above, coopahtroopa is that influencer.

• The minting revenue is divided 50% between Rodeo and the creator

• If the minting is attributed to an influencer , the minting proceeds are split 25%, 25%, and 50% between the influencer, Rodeo, and creator.

• Rodeo is showing signs of slow but steady growth while continually adding features. Notably, their public Dune dashboard is keeping an eye on retention and casting engagement.

โซร่า

The Foundry platform has recently transformed into a discovery and social platform beyond crypto users, introducing new features and mechanics :

• Cooperate with Uniswap to integrate simplified secondary market experience into the application

• Sparks (✧), a new unit of Ethereum in the Zora ecosystem. 1 ✧ = 1 millionth of an ETH.

• All content has a uniform minting price of 0.000111 ETH or 111 ✧, which is about 25 cents. Previously, the minting price was set by the creator. There are some exceptions, but the details are unclear.

• Minting will remain open until there are 200 mints on the post. Once the 200 mint threshold is reached, a 24 hour timer begins. When the timer ends, a Uniswap-powered secondary market will open based on supply and demand.

• Zora’s mobile app went live last week , offering a simpler minting experience as users purchase Sparks through in-app purchases. This makes the mobile experience seamless with no switching, pop-ups, bridges or fees.

Foundry enhances social interaction

Watch the evolution of Rodeo and Zora, emerging social media platforms that aim to solve the pain points of current mainstream social media.

The value of likes is gradually decreasing

Likes have become an emoji response in iOS text message threads, simply confirming that someone has seen your post or message. Theres nothing wrong with that, but in the context of overall engagement, its the lowest value engagement signal besides views. At least you know who saw and approved of your post.

My wife sent me a text reply

Existing social media platforms are aware of this. Twitter values replies 27 times more than likes .

Commenting can be a privilege, not a right

Most social media posts allow anyone to comment or reply, but in some cases, the comment feature is turned off. For example, Solana co-founder Anatoly only allows accounts he follows or users he is mentioned in to reply to his posts.

Response to this matter

Rodeo and Zora address these pain points as core features of their respective apps.

Casting is more important than liking

แหล่งที่มา

The Like button was replaced by a Mint button. If you really like the content, you can mint it for as little as 25 cents, creating a win-win situation:

• Creators receive financial compensation for their work

• Collectors receive an NFT in return

• The platform gets a portion of the minting revenue and does not have to rely on the traditional advertising model

Comments are open to creators only

Anyone can comment on a piece of content if you cast it.

In the context of these apps, this all makes sense. The goal of platforms like Rodeo isn’t to prevent creators from connecting with users, but to create more meaningful ways to connect through minting and limiting commenting features.

These behaviors exist on traditional social platforms

While I’ve criticized this broken model of engagement quite a bit, the emotions, psychology, and intentions behind the behavior that Rodeo and Zora built from scratch exist in different forms, proving their approach works.

Tinder Super Like

In the world of dating (an area I’m totally unfamiliar with right now), Tinder introduced Super Likes a few years ago. Super Likes increase your chances of matching and automatically put you at the top of the list of matches.

These super favorites arent cheap either, with 3 costing $9.99.

Save content

Social platforms also allow you to save content และ organize it . Saving content indicates that it is more valuable and worth revisiting at some point.

Future application scenarios

Moments in life

The examples I provided are focused on art so they are easier to understand in terms of incentives for creators and collectors. Collecting art for 25 cents a piece is a win-win. But what about those who are not great photographers or artists, but who post amazing work on Rodeo?

While they are a minority, users like Max Segall of Privy are using Rodeo more like Instagram. These posts don’t have dozens of mints, nor do they need to, or necessarily for that purpose.

Its not like they dont have mints. For example, โพสนี้ by Max has two mints, one of which was minted by Alex in the photo. Thats the point.

Alex’s mint may be more valuable than 20 likes on other social platforms. Of course, if Max wants to get those likes, he can choose to post the photo cross-platform.

Important moments in life

Engagement, wedding, new job. These types of posts are flooded with likes and congratulatory messages, but they are forgotten after a few minutes due to the endless updates in the feed.

While happy couples or creators appreciate these little dopamine rushes and notifications lighting up, what if there was another way to congratulate creators? Minting the post provides a way to do this and allows minters to show that they put more effort than the standard Congratulations!!! Minting 1 makes you feel a little stingy, so why not mint 10 or 100… or mint 1 and send it as a wedding gift, haha.

Non-profit organizations

This is a case that strikes me as very relevant. What if every post published by the Red Cross was mintable, and all minting proceeds (if the platform turns off the fee switch or transfers their share later) went directly to them?

People can still visit the site to make larger donations, but minting becomes a way to make micro-donations that weren’t possible before, which accumulate over time and become DTCs (direct donations to charity).

What if youre an animal shelter? Post cute photos of cats and dogs and watch those micro donations pour in. Who wouldnt want to donate 25 cents and mint a cute photo of a kitten or puppy?

MVF – Minimum Viable Financialization

The concept of financialization is on my mind as I write this. Blockchain is driving financialization in a way that has never been done before. Memes are already worth billions of dollars, we have prediction markets built on what presidential candidates say in their speeches , and people are still speculating on JPEGs worth thousands of dollars.

However, financialization, and more specifically minimum viable financialization, can lend meaning to certain digital interactions that are becoming increasingly meaningless.

Maybe the way forward isnt friend.tech, but SocialFi with a lowercase f, via platforms like Rodeo and Zora.
