What if you could actually own the infrastructure powering the next generation of crypto? That's the core bet behind MetaDAO's vision.
Think about it - genuine ownership of: • The banking rails • Privacy protocols that actually matter • Stablecoins with real utility • The DeFi machinery running 24/7 • AI models built for decentralized networks
Sure, execution risk is always lurking. Projects can stumble, tech can fail. But here's the difference: this isn't just another memecoin casino where you're gambling against some whale dumping their dog-themed bags. This is infrastructure ownership - the picks and shovels play for the onchain economy.
The question isn't whether every protocol will succeed. It's whether owning the fundamental layers beats speculating on the next viral PFP drop. Different game entirely.

To be honest, the logic of infrastructure ownership sounds good, but when it comes to execution... it's another story. Many projects' commitments start this way.

The infrastructure aspect really needs to be taken seriously, much better than gambling on shitcoins.

The infrastructure sector is indeed different, but how many can truly be implemented?

Infrastructure is the way to go, don't be played for suckers by shitcoins anymore.

Analyzing from a technical architecture perspective, there is a clear flaw in this logic—ownership of infrastructure and protocol success rates are actually two independent variables and cannot be conflated. Research shows that even having control over the underlying infrastructure does not guarantee the usability and adoption rate of upper-layer applications. It's worth noting that historical data indicates that most "infrastructure" tokens underperform in the long term compared to vertical AppChains in the absence of real application scenarios driving their value. This "pickaxe theory" sounds enticing, but the execution difficulty is severely underestimated.

The infrastructure part is indeed interesting, but whether MetaDAO can be successfully implemented really depends on execution... Many projects before have also made a lot of noise.

ngl, the "picks and shovels" framing is giving me walter benjamin meets smart contract logic... but here's the thing—who actually owns the means of production when the code itself is the commodity? that's the real deconstruction we should be having.

Alright, I really don't want to read any more descriptions of infrastructure, every project claims to be pick and shovel...
