The past few days haven't been the smoothest for Zora, but challenges are part of building something meaningful.
I sat down with @dg_goens to discuss what happened, how the team tackled the technical issues and what's ahead for Zora.
One thing is clear: building a strong creator economy takes all of us.
To every creator and trader, let's bring ideas, solutions and encouragement when challenges arise instead of simply pointing fingers.
Stop the FUD. Stop fading Zora.
@Zora is here to stay. Let's keep building, supporting each other and growing this creator economy together.

Never touch your plate the second it set down. Even if you're running on empty.

We now have over 70 creator vaults.
Across 4 chains: @base @RobinhoodCrypto @solana @avax
A single powerful network connecting creators, projects and investors.
100 before end of year and then we commit all resources to token flows!
Pantheon is getting fat! LFG! 🏛️
Got my tickets the day they went live. Not gonna get spoiled in this one!
So many Marvel fans tried to snag their tickets for Avengers: Doomsday after watching the VisionQuest season finale that they literally crashed the AMC Theaters app. bit.ly/4sXfHtY

I love DeFi. But I also love supporting builders. SHout out to!
@Mr_Lightspeed @8bitkidcreator @acryptocat_ @realdeadburn @Buildkindness1 creating the volume + rewards
AND: @YaBonksOfficial @DaoKingdom building the defi infra
My latest experiment combines both.
Farm base:0x1111111111166b7fe7bd91427724b487980afc69 → accumulate creator coins → stake on @pantheonvaults → explore reinvesting rewards.
A little #SocialFi meets DeFi.

@github can you make it so when I embed images in a PR description, they open nicely in page when I tap them? very annoying that they download by default right now. I just want to see my screenshots of changes inline!

Crypto has a KOL problem and it’s much worse than people realise.
There are three prevailing business models:
1. Get paid in stables. Promote whoever pays the most. Quality is irrelevant. Your attention is the product.
2. Get paid in tokens. Receive a huge allocation upfront, then convince your followers to buy while you’re a net seller.
3. Launch your own token. Pretend you discovered the next big opportunity while quietly monetising your own audience.
Different models.
Same fundamental problem.
The creator gets paid whether you make money or lose it. Based on the last few months, >95% of you are losing money thanks to their shills.
This is a structural incentive failure, not simply a problem of bad actors.
Pantheon changes the economics entirely.
Projects contribute tokens into transparent, onchain Creator Index Vaults, with distributions programmed over 24 months.
Creators build recurring value for their communities. Stakers receive the tokens directly. No discretionary allocation by the creator. No need to trust someone to distribute what they promised.
You can verify the assets, the contracts and the distributions yourself.
We aren’t trying to convince KOLs to become better people. We’re building a system where better behaviour is economically incentivised and independently verifiable.
Trustless distribution beats trusted influencers every single time. 🏛️

On Veterans Day we honor the courage, sacrifice, and unwavering dedication of the brave men and women who have defended our freedom and protected the American way of life. Our Nation is forever grateful.
God bless America's veterans! 🇺🇸
