“电子乞丐”惹众怒,Starknet、Scroll接连遭遇舆论危机

近日,Starknet 又迎来了争议时刻。

事件的起因为,Starknet 的核心开发成员 Abdelhamid Bakhta(abdel.stark.eth)近期在社交媒体上将询问空投状况的社区用户公然称为“电子乞丐”(e-beggar);另一位开发者 od1n 亦涉嫌“使用表情包侮辱中文区用户”;此外 Starknet 还在官方 Discord 频道内新增了一个“电子乞丐”的子频道,并配以臭虫图标;。

由于 Starknet 近期频频被传即将空投,但却迟迟没有实际动作,被吊了数年胃口的用户在情绪上本就逼近了爆发的临界点,不出意外,Abdelhamid 以及官方团队的此番操作直接引爆了部分用户的怒火。

随着事件的发酵,大量用户纷纷开始“礼貌慰问” Abdelhamid 及 Starknet;部分用户还通过制作各种 meme 来对 Starknet 进行嘲讽;最逗的是,有些用户还挖出了 od1n 早些年在 X(当时还是推特)上频繁讨论各个项目潜在空投的“打脸记录”,认为 od1n “重生之我是项目方”后便翻脸不认人。

眼见舆论逐渐失控,昨日晚间 Abdelhamid 紧急发文致歉,承认自己使用“电子乞丐”一词并不合适,并解释表示最初只是觉得好玩,没有考虑用词所产生的后果,且加上 Uri 近期因家人健康问题辞去了 StarkWare 首席执行官之一,导致自己情绪进一步控制,反应过于强烈。

之后,Starknet 还在官方 Discord 频道内删除了“电子乞丐”的子频道。

虽然有许多用户在 Abdelhamid 道歉后表示理解,但仍有许多用户不买账,并在 Abdelhamid 的道歉声明下方继续“输出”。

值得一提的是,本次舆论风波之后,Starknet 上的“电子乞丐”概念 meme 币 EBG 及 EBGR 均迎来了逾暴涨,颇有称为该生态代表性 meme 的架势……

无独有偶,Starknet 并非近期唯一一家因“电子乞丐”事件引发众怒的项目,Scroll 也曾惹火烧身。Scroll 高级研究员 Toghrul Maharramov 近期也曾在和用户“对线”时直接将对方称为“电子乞丐”,甚至还在发文嘲讽用户博取空投时直接使用了 fxxk 类的恶意词汇。

如 Starknet 一般,Toghrul 的言论很快也为 Scroll 招来了社区的怒火。

接连发生的数起事件,其背后所反映出的深层矛盾其实是项目方与包括羊毛党在内的用户之间存在着理念分歧。

如何界定“真实用户”和“羊毛党”本就难以评估,即便许多用户使用某项目的初衷就是为了空投,但大部分用户在交互进程中往往也会进行很多带有明确目的的指向性操作,这些切切实实的使用行为均会反映在网络数据之上;反过来,也没有几个用户真的愿意放弃空投收益,单纯地“无偿贡献”。

对于项目方而言,团队希望将代币分配至更多所谓的真实用户手中,以维护项目发币之后的基本面状况,这本身无可厚非,但团队大可以默默地基于自己对于女巫行为的理解进行严格的地址筛查,天天盯着分歧进行言语输出属实没有必要,除了会误伤部分“真实用户”,并不会改善项目整体的交互画像。

退一步说,Web3 行业发展至今,“你要我的数据,我图你的空投”早已成为行业默契,虽说这一理念并不那么 zz 正确,但双方在需求端本就存在着捋不清的依赖关系,在这样的纠葛状态下去过多的强调分歧显然并不明智。

就本次事件而言,Starknet 和 Scroll 屡屡点破用户空投意图的行为可以定性为一场大型的公关失误。站在项目发展的角度考虑,技术开发固然重要,但运营方式同样不容忽视,我们很乐于看到 Starknet 和 Scroll 各自在非 EVM 环境 Rollup 以及等效 EVM Rollup 方面所带来的创新,也不希望它们因为如此低级的失误而被钉在了用户的对立面。

Web3 的征程还长,还没有到把内部分歧当作主要矛盾的时候,大家都还是“可以团结的力量”。

Market Trend (June 19): US-Iran Deal Drives Out Geopolitical Premium; Chip Stocks Soar to New Highs; Energy Sector Leads Declines

U.S. Market Trends (June 19): U.S.-Iran Deal Eases Tensions, Chip Stocks Soar, Energy Sector Leads Declines. U.S. stocks rallied on Thursday as the signing of a temporary U.S.-Iran deal in Geneva de-escalated Middle East tensions, with Saudi oil tankers transiting the Strait of Hormuz. This geopolitical relief helped markets recover from recent Fed-driven volatility. The S&P 500 rose over 1%, the Nasdaq gained nearly 2%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at another record high. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index surged over 6% to a historic peak. Chip stocks were the standout performers. Reports of an Apple-Intel design and foundry deal for certain products, alongside mentions of potential Nvidia and SpaceX collaborations with Intel, propelled the sector. Intel surged ~10.5%, while memory chip makers like Micron also saw significant gains, highlighting sustained confidence in long-term AI capital expenditure. In contrast, the energy sector was the day's sole loser, with the S&P 500 energy sub-index declining as WTI crude fell ~2% to around $74.29/barrel. The reopening of key shipping routes erased prior geopolitical risk premiums. SpaceX extended losses for a second day on news of a potential large bond offering. Market volatility (VIX) dropped sharply, indicating a swift reversal of post-Fed jitters. Treasury yields dipped slightly but remained elevated. The focus now shifts to upcoming economic data, including next week's PCE inflation report and Micron's earnings, which will serve as a key test for the AI trade's durability.

Will MicroStrategy Fall Into a Death Spiral? How Will the Macro Outlook Evolve in the Second Half of the Year?

**Summary:** The discussion centers on recent Bitcoin price declines and the evolving financial strategy of MicroStrategy (MSTR). The core argument is that the primary pressure is not from one-off Bitcoin sales by MSTR, but from the market's new expectation that MSTR may need to engage in *sustained, small-scale* Bitcoin sales to cover cash flow obligations for its growing portfolio of preferred shares and debt instruments (like STRC). This shift is driven by its stated goal of maintaining "bitcoins per share neutrality." The market is now testing whether it can absorb this potential ongoing selling pressure without entering a severe "death spiral" with Bitcoin's price. A resolution may involve MSTR softening its approach to avoid damaging both its stock and Bitcoin. The conversation then explores the parallel rise of AI-related stocks. The guest posits that AI is fundamentally restructuring labor, with "tokens" (representing access to AI models/compute) becoming a new form of capital and a substitute for human execution. This drives corporate efficiency and profits, benefiting upstream hardware providers (semiconductors, data centers), which explains the sustained rally. This represents the early stages of a "machine economy." Regarding crypto exchanges offering US stock trading, this is seen as a natural evolution. With few crypto-native assets generating lasting value, exchanges are pivoting to distribute valuable real-world assets (RWAs). This doesn't necessarily harm crypto's long-term prospects, as blockchain infrastructure may become crucial for future machine-to-machine economies. The analysis concludes that the era of rampant altcoin speculation is likely over, heavily damaged by the liquidity shock of the "1011" event (likely referring to a major market crash). Meme-driven capital has largely migrated to US equities. Looking ahead, macroeconomic uncertainty is rising due to potential large IPOs (e.g., SpaceX) and the US elections. While short-term market corrections are possible, the long-term trends of AI-driven productivity gains and the maturation of blockchain towards real-world utility and institutional adoption remain intact.

Will MicroStrategy Fall into a Death Spiral? What Will the Macro Trend Be in the Second Half of the Year?

The podcast features investor Didier discussing the recent Bitcoin downturn and the evolving strategy of MicroStrategy (MSTR). He argues the core pressure is not macro factors or ETF outflows, but the market pricing in an expectation that MSTR will engage in continuous, small-scale Bitcoin sales to fund its increasing preferred stock and debt obligations under its "bitcoin-per-share neutrality" principle. This creates a structural headwind. However, he is cautiously optimistic a "death spiral" is avoidable without new major shocks, as market support is likely to emerge at a certain price point. Didier then posits that the AI-driven bull market in US stocks (semiconductors, data centers) is fundamentally driven by AI agents and tokens becoming the "new labor force," displacing human roles and boosting corporate margins. This shift toward a machine economy is still in its early stages. He comments on crypto exchanges adding US stock trading, viewing it as a natural move toward valuable real-world assets as truly valuable crypto-native assets remain scarce. For crypto-native traders, he suggests existing strategies (e.g., meme-chasing or value investing) can translate to similar assets in US markets. The discussion notes the severe liquidity damage from the "1011 event" (likely referring to a major market crash) has essentially ended the altcoin cycle, with speculative momentum shifting to the more liquid US stock market. Regarding the macroeconomic outlook for H2 2024, Didier expresses increased caution due to potential market pressure from upcoming mega-IPOs (e.g., SpaceX) and US midterm election risks. Long-term, he remains bullish on AI's productivity gains and its convergence with blockchain/Web3, which he sees maturing into a more institutional, real-asset-focused phase.

Dylan Patel: Founder of SemiAnalysis, Praised by Jensen Huang, is a 'Beekeeper' and 'Forum Enthusiast'

Dylan Patel, founder of the independent research firm SemiAnalysis, has an unconventional background. A former beekeeper from rural Georgia, he entered the semiconductor world as a self-taught "forum warrior," discussing chip technology anonymously online from a young age. He launched the SemiAnalysis blog in May 2020, which later transitioned to a paid subscription model. The firm has grown from a one-person operation to a global team of around 60, with a dedicated teardown lab. Its detailed, technically-focused analysis on semiconductor supply chains, AI infrastructure, and products has earned significant industry recognition. Notably, NVIDIA founder Jensen Huang has publicly cited their reports. In a landmark case, a critical 2024 report on AMD's MI300X GPU software stack led to a 90-minute call with AMD CEO Lisa Su, who thanked him for the constructive feedback. SemiAnalysis later acknowledged AMD's improvements. The firm's influence on markets was seen when a report on NVIDIA's Rubin memory configuration was partially shared, affecting memory stock prices. Dylan Patel emphasized the importance of context, contrasting the shared excerpt with the report's actual title. SemiAnalysis, now a multi-faceted consultancy with revenue projected to reach $100 million, is known for its deep technical insights that influence major industry players and investment decisions.

Dylan Patel: SemiAnalysis, Praised by Jensen Huang, is Founded by a 'Beekeeper and Forum Warrior'

Dylan Patel, founder of the independent research firm SemiAnalysis, has an unconventional background. Growing up in rural Georgia, he later worked as a beekeeper in Minnesota. His entry into semiconductors began as a self-taught "forum warrior," engaging anonymously in online tech communities from a young age. In May 2020, he started the SemiAnalysis blog on WordPress, later moving it to Substack as a paid subscription service. The firm has since evolved from a one-person operation into a global company with around 60 employees, featuring a dedicated chip teardown lab. Its revenue, reaching $20 million last year, is projected to surpass $100 million this year. SemiAnalysis is highly regarded in the AI and semiconductor industry for its deep technical analysis. NVIDIA founder Jensen Huang has publicly praised its reports. In a notable instance, a critical report on AMD's MI300X GPU software shortcomings prompted a 90-minute call with CEO Lisa Su, who thanked Patel for the "constructive feedback." A later report acknowledged AMD's subsequent improvements. The firm's analyses have significant market impact. For example, a June report discussing potential memory configuration changes in NVIDIA's next-generation servers was cited as a factor in pressure on memory-related stocks. Patel plans to establish a venture capital firm, having already made personal investments in about 20 startups. SemiAnalysis combines roles as a consultancy, model platform, and tech lab, focusing on the practical bottlenecks in AI infrastructure.
