Bankless
MegaETH Token Launch with Co-Founders Shuyao and Lei

You know, I was going to say that I'm so excited that we're finally TGE.

Bankless

I think unlike most projects, right, you launch the mainnet, your TGE, kind of just get it over with and your baby is out in the public.

I think for us, it's like the baby is there, but no one is able to see it.

And then we're finally able to reveal the baby via this token, which I believe token is not a product.

Bankless

Token is part of the infrastructure.

I think the TGE itself kind of marks the completeness of Mega as a protocol.

Bankless

But to answer your question directly, why did we set up these KPIs, right?

Bankless
MegaETH Token Launch with Co-Founders Shuyao and Lei

And the more often I say the word KPI, the more...

Bankless
MegaETH Token Launch with Co-Founders Shuyao and Lei

Like a weird feeling I have because they're like just sound so strict, but they're really celebratory milestones instead of KPIs.

Bankless

The idea was rather simple.

Bankless

I found it really odd that insiders can just get 60% or 50% of a protocol's token at launch without doing much or metrics to prove that they've done the work.

So from our perspective, it's 2026 and I've been in crypto for eight years.

Bankless

I think just the old game is not worth playing anymore.

Bankless
MegaETH Token Launch with Co-Founders Shuyao and Lei

And we want to exercise this philosophy of building public.

Bankless
MegaETH Token Launch with Co-Founders Shuyao and Lei

have the public monitor exactly what's happening with mega.

Bankless
MegaETH Token Launch with Co-Founders Shuyao and Lei

And that's why we set the KPI and then basically hold everyone accountable, right?

Bankless
MegaETH Token Launch with Co-Founders Shuyao and Lei

And it's not just the mega core team.

Bankless
MegaETH Token Launch with Co-Founders Shuyao and Lei

It's also our applications, right?

Bankless
MegaETH Token Launch with Co-Founders Shuyao and Lei

We can't launch unless they launch.

And if they want to get traction, they better like integrate and go live on mainnet.
