Today, the rain caused water to pool all over the road, and the coffee has cooled down... Just happened to come across another wave of PFP/members arguing about "long-term brand value." Honestly, most of the time, what people are buying isn't the "brand," but the attention they get at the moment and their presence in group chats. When it's hot, it's like a pass; when it's cold, it’s just a picture. If it's truly long-term, I care more about whether it clearly states the benefits, whether it can deliver consistently, and whether the contracts and vault permissions are reliable. Otherwise, no matter how good-looking the avatar is, it can't withstand a single authorization mishap. Recently, funding rates have been extremely outrageous, with the community shouting about reversals while also pumping the bubble. I’m not following this sentiment anyway—whether it’s members or PFPs, I just want to ask: does it help me sleep better at night? If not, then forget it.
