· 2026-07-01T18:47:55+00:00The $VVV debate might be the first thing CT has collectively agreed on in months Equity/token splits are a relic of the past. They create misaligned incentives and unclear value accrual You’re either a traditional company or a token company There is no in between

· 2026-07-01T19:24:55+00:00I think with $VVV it's a bit different. Since they're able to build out and scale up compute with capital raised, eventually more usable capacity increases, more $DIEM gets minted, revenue increases and they burn more $VVV . Value does end up accruing to the token.
