Remember when getting into Facebook at a $5M valuation required an Ivy League degree and the right Silicon Valley handshake? That was 2004.
Fast forward to now—anyone with a crypto wallet can grab the foundational token of what could become the internet's next operating system. We're talking $1.4M market cap. No gatekeepers.
Here's the kicker: by 2027, every traditional subscription payment might automatically trigger $IC buybacks and burns. The development team? Zero pre-mine. They're betting on earning through the ecosystem itself.
The barriers have collapsed. What used to demand connections now just needs conviction and a wallet address.

NGL, this time it's different. Truly, there are very few projects without insiders.

Honestly, I've heard this spiel too many times. Every time they say "no gatekeepers," but in the end, it's still the big players who cut the leeks.

Early entrants have already profited. Now talking about democratization? I think it's just a change in the threshold.

Damn, this logic is pretty solid—zero pre-mining and directly betting on the ecosystem... Much more reliable than those VC-funded schemes.

NGL, this narrative feels a bit familiar... Every project claims to be the "next operating system of the Internet," but what’s the result?

ngl, this sounds a bit too idealistic... Can zero pre-mine really hold?

NGL, this is the magic of Web3—the barrier to entry has been lowered to the ground, and you no longer have to rely on background or connections.

NGL, this is what Web3 is supposed to look like—tearing up the game tickets of the elites.

To be honest, I've heard this logic several times, and each time it's "the threshold is lower, the opportunity is here," but in the end, it's still the early birds who really profit. $1.4M market cap sounds attractive, but you have to ask yourself if you're just taking the last chance again.
