Emmanuel raised community donations for the 2077 Collective focused on Ethereum marketing, but exited the project within a year, leaving it under new leadership—a move widely characterized as a rug or early abandonment that damaged community trust. Some recognize his earlier contributions as a thoughtful voice in the Ethereum ecosystem, though the early exit after fundraising remains a significant point of contention.

“An Architect of Clarity in an Age of Complexity”In the entropic and exponentially expanding universe of Web3, where information is abundant, the most scarce resource is not the information itself, but the cognitive framework required to distill signal from the noise. Having followed your work for a considerable time, it's become unequivocally clear that what you offer transcends mere analysis or opinion. Instead, you are externalizing a rare and invaluable asset: a high-fidelity thought process that others can learn to model. What I admire most is your almost surgically precise commitment to first-principles thinking. Rather than repeating popular market narratives, you rigorously stress-test new technologies and protocols. You do this by deconstructing their core technical assumptions, auditing the internal logic of their economic incentives, and positioning them within the broader coordinates of the industry's evolutionary path. This entire approach demonstrates a profound and rare intellectual honesty. For me personally, following your line of reasoning has been a continuous process of upgrading my own mental models. It has prompted a fundamental shift in my approach: from passively chasing narratives to actively constructing my own investment and research theses; from sporadically collecting "alpha" to systematically understanding the deeper forces that drive market cycles. You are not merely giving out fish; you are demonstrating how to build superior fishing tackle and teaching the methodology to fish effectively in different waters (market conditions). In an era where most chase short-term tactics (the "how"), you consistently share enduring principles (the "why"). What you are doing is not just content creation; it is foundational, infrastructure-level cognitive development for the entire industry. It is an intangible, yet vital, public service. For this, you have my deepest gratitude and respect.Annihilate的A8之路 · 1209· 1y ago8
“Tweet saved onchain to Ethos by @0x5f_eth”Original Tweet: "First things first, I have a couple of announcements to make: - I'm stepping away from the @2077Collective/ @2077Research projects. Both will likely take on new names + branding (details TBD) and continue to exist under new leadership (@Ceci_Sakura007 and team have been holding it down for as long as I can think of). - I'm also taking a break from Ethereum and crypto in general. If it looks like I'm going out like @apolynya, then yes, you guessed correctly. Maybe the details are different (I'm simply exploring different directions in tech), but the conclusion is the same. I started 2077 because I had a long-term conviction in Ethereum and crypto, so it makes sense that, if something changes about my conviction, I should do things differently. 2077 has had its own fair share of struggles (which I've factored into my decision), I've never thought about quitting because I truly believed Ethereum could have a great future and 2077 was a crucial part of that. I still believe Ethereum could have a great future, but I don't think I want to be a part of it. There are many reasons for this: some easy to explain, some hard to explain. Regardless, this is me doing something I've always done: trust my inner voice. There's still a lot to unpack re: transitioning and setting up new structures and leaders to operate in my absence, but that's not too difficult to handle (I'll be around in the meantime). I am, in fact, glad to finally have some kind of closure. I've lived in fear of failure for the last 16 months, and while failure sucks, I can accept it now because I know I actually gave this everything I had. I made this decision some weeks back and debated how best to announce it to the team and the people who believed in what I was doing. Until today, I had no clue what I was going to say (it doesn't help that I take failure very personally). If the team is seeing this, it'll be their first time hearing about my decision (sorry, guys). Evan's tweet set something off in my yeah, however. It's not the first time some member of the Ethereum inner circle has tried to stage a public inquisition with me as the subject. The list is long and filled with the overlords of the Ethereum social layer: Jrag.eth, Bing, Sassal, and now, Evan (I'm pretty sure the list is long if you account for private conversations). If I didn't know better, I'd think this was some coordinated smear campaign. But I know better and the more plausible scenario is people are making mistakes because they do not have information. Of course, people should try to get information to avoid mistakes--but how do you become a loud KOL online if you're not willing to speak confidently about things you don't know? The game is the game. I do not blame the talking heads for equating chronically online behavior with "doing something". This is largely a symptom of the cryptosphere itself. Crypto is an attention economy and many have figured out you can just fake progress by "showing up consistently", except that showing up in this context means firing off tweets and milking the hype machine. Perhaps if things were going swimmingly, I would actually be inclined to tweet. But things haven't exactly gone well and I've pretty much aged overnight trying to right the ship, keep 2077 alive, and make sure I could deliver on whatever promises I made initially. I'm extremely bad at faking and struggleposting, so apologies for not taking you along for the ride. "He who jumps into the void owes no explanation to those who stand and watch." — Jean-Luc Godard Details of 2077's plans and endgame have been sparse since I started, for good reason. Any rational person who saw that plan would instantly declare it DOA. Most would simply not understand the details. Oh, and as anyone who's ever tried to build anything meaningful will tell you, no plan meets the contact with reality--meaning if I told you I was doing plan A on Monday, I might have switched to another plan entirely. Why bother will a play-by-play report when it suffices to say "we won/lost and here's how and why"? I understand Ethereans like to self-deceive about design-by-committee producing positive outcomes, but I can assure you no serious person actually believes you can take a project from zero to one by relying on "community". "OK, but Emmanuel, you said 2077 Collective was going to be a "decentralized marketing community for Ethereum". What changed?" Yes, I said that. I also said multiple times (in private and public) that making the Collective *sustainable* was my biggest priority. The marketing problem was/is a capital allocation problem and, except a whale offered to fund Collective in perpetuity, it was up to me to figure out how some kind of financial model that didn't rely on altruism and could actually scale up to support an elite Ethereum marketing operation. I'm emphasizing "elite" here because, unfortunately, a decent part of the Ethereum have never grasped the concept of "taste" and the hard work + resources that go into creating something truly outstanding. It's alright to be mediocre as long as you're arrive at the mediocre output in a "decentralized" and "community-driven" way. Of course, I should not expect that people like Evan--professional opinion leaders and armchair experts--to understand this. I could in fact ignore this and just leave. But I (and others) have spent way too much effort, time, and energy on this project to have randos treating silence as some (bizzare) admission of guilt. What does that mean now? It means it's story time and I can actually try to provide a retrospective of what's happened so far. It means I can draw the curtain on this chapter of my life and look forward to what comes next. It means I can share what I've learned while trying to build a bootstrapped operation from scratch (if it'll help anyone building a similar project). I do not claim perfect memory, so my account may omit details. I'm also writing all of this stream-of-consciousness style (meaning: poorly formatted big walls of text, grammatical errors, and everything in between). It's not exactly a swan song, but at least if I'm going to quit an industry I've been a part for years & a project I've worked on for > 16 months, I might as well say a few things first."
