After watching the interview between @overtake_world’s CBO @alisoneuj, one quote really stood out to me and felt like the highlight of the whole conversation: " $TAKE is not just our token. It’s the utility layer that connects users to core features of the Overtake ecosystem." To me, this means $TAKE isn’t just one of those hype coins made for pumping and dumping. It’s not just a speculative tool—it actually plays a functional role in the #OVERTAKE ecosystem. The reason I think this quote is so powerful is because so many projects focus only on pumping the token to bring in users and generate data, but totally neglect the actual product. That usually just leads to a death spiral. But if you build something real and useful, the token benefits too. The best example — #Binance At first, I thought this kind of approach—focusing on building instead of hype—was rare in crypto. But then I found out @alisoneuj previously worked at @kakaopaycorp in Web2. Suddenly, it all made sense. That’s exactly the kind of solid background that explains why she joined a serious, no-BS team like #OVERTAKE In the interview, Alison also shared the roadmap for the next year: In 2025, their first big move is getting ready for TGE. Then comes the launch of TakePay, plus efforts to simplify the onboarding process for Web2 users. After that, they'll start rolling out updates to the rest of the ecosystem. These days, more and more projects are shifting focus to building actual infrastructure. The hype is fading, and utility is starting to matter more. Sure, most buying power still rides on hype—especially with whales shilling, and the $TRUMP token sparking a wave of celeb copycats—but even that kind of FOMO isn’t as strong as it used to be. Alison sees the future trend of crypto as the rise of digital economic participation—cutting out the platforms and letting people directly take part in value exchange. If enough people believe in that vision, it becomes reality. This interview really showed off @0xkibom’s style and mindset too—it reminded me a lot of @cz_binance, who also deeply cares about both product and community. Building is never easy, and it takes time. 🫡 Can’t wait to see what’s next from @alisoneuj, @0xkibom, and the whole @overtake_world team. #OVERTAKE
