Notas del episodio
On this episode of The Latest Development, Dirt sits down with the founder and Den Master of Lucid Drakes to unpack what actually happens when a Web3 community cultivates intimacy (65/67 minted) with a talented group of well connected individuals, refuses to dilute, and still keeps building momentum. We go deep on the unsolved problem of self-sustaining communities, the new limited-edition merch drop, why Lucid Ventures is becoming a must-have line on every hot Solana cap table, and what the next phase of Drakes looks like when the mint is finally complete. Only two Drakes remain. If you’ve ever wondered why holders almost never sell… this is the one to watch.
