Some ramblings on what comes after Pump's ICO.
1) Potential Influx of Founders and Capital
2) A New Capital Formation Playbook
3) The Path Towards Onchain IPOs
1) Influx of founders and capital
Just as Stripe's acquisition of Bridge catalyzed an influx of capital and founder talent into the stablecoin landscape, a successful Pump ICO can similarly inspire new founders and attracting fresh capital. Founders always have the gumption to think "why not me?".
Most of the broader finance world will probably hear about Pump's success ICO today/this coming week. Some people will natural start to see what global capital formation at its best looks like.
2) A New Capital Formation Playbook
Things are path dependent. Founders and companies look for blueprints they can use to be successful.
Blur --> the success of points as incentives
Microstrategy --> capital formation for treasury vehicles
Morpho --> token as primary investment mechanism structure
Pump --> Exchange ICO playbook
While an outlier in terms of size and support, Pump's playbook for raising on exchanges presents an interesting playbook for companies.
