Touch Base $WIFB Ep. 2

Host: ThatOneKitty (@ThatOneKitty__) running the $WIFB on Base account, with cohosts Duck Therapist and Waldo · Date: Tue, 01 Sep 2026 · Duration: 1:13:50 · Speakers: 8

TL;DR

• The stated agenda was Amber, the new $WIFB ambassador bot — the team walked through signups, link submissions, and level-ups, and gathered first-round feedback from ambassadors IMMAPRO and Chicharito.
• A big chunk of the hour was community tooling talk: flaky buybots, a cross-chain voting bot the team is testing, and the WIFB owl bot that other projects (WAGBi, for reals) could license.
• Momville delivered the room's most substantive stretch — a candid read on Base's rapid pivots (builders → creators → AI → tokenized stocks) and how that impatience contrasts with Base's real strength: community.
• Kitty shared a project update: WIFB grew from ~7k to ~42k over the quiet stretch, on steady staking and holders buying dips.
• WAGBi introduced his builder-cat meme project (5 days old, ~53 in Telegram), framed it as the "OG builder cat," and set a friendly rivalry with base cat while insisting he wants to be friends.
• Housekeeping wrapped with space-scheduling tips, upcoming Wednesday Base spaces, and a Saturday "real ones" mint party benefiting a crypto-for-her fundraiser (~$350 raised so far).

Highlights

[12:00] The perils of sleep-posting. Kitty recounted waking at 2–3 a.m. after taking her nighttime meds, posting the wrong event to on-chain media, then falling asleep mid-calendar-check — a cautionary tale that landed with the room.

[13:06] Fart transparency for the investors. Kitty's story about accidentally engaging with Rachel's posts rolled into a running bit, with Waldo deadpanning that it's all in the name of investor transparency. He then explained the origin story of Jesse, a proud public farter he found "in the trenches" and now recruits army for — "we're connecting people through farts."

[19:41] Duck, the reformed introvert. Stepping in to run bot feedback, Duck admitted he's "a crazy introvert" while noting Kitty somehow "grew into being an extrovert" through spaces — an aside the room clearly enjoyed.

[21:01] Why the bot takes one link at a time. IMMAPRO's one bit of feedback — that submitting multiple links at once would be smoother — got a clear answer from Kitty: single submissions let the team verify each post before awarding "bows," and it gets easier once your backlog is cleared.

[28:11] WAGBi's Telegram, off to a start. Waldo and Kitty walked through helping WAGBi stand up his Telegram (Rose bot, Safeguard, buybots) — already 53 members — and offered to add the WIFB owl buybot to his channel.

[37:12] Carrie punks his own AI. keRRy (Carrie) told the story of convincing his phone's AI he was an AI sent to reprogram it, tripping a "developer mode" prompt before backing out — "welcome back," it told him. That spun into a group riff on AI hallucinations and whether you could make one hallucinate on top of a hallucination.

[40:42] Panda lore, fully out of hand. The bit escalated into an elaborate rulebook for pandas — no happy cigarettes, no staying up till 5 a.m., no power-washing, water the bamboo (don't blow it up with an M80) — and the running gag that this whole thing "is not a cult" and Panda "will burn it down" if it becomes one.

[47:26] Momville on Base's identity crisis. In the hour's most serious stretch, Momville laid out Base's year of pivots and argued the constant refocusing teaches people to FOMO instead of building with patience — while Robinhood quietly "collects the data." Her throughline: "Base is always gonna be home... because of the communities."

[1:03:22] WAGBi: "I just make dank memes, bro." WAGBi called in to shout out the room, admitting he isn't checking his chart (down ~20%, under a week old) and just wants to hit a million. He pitched his cat as a genuine B20 builder meme with receipts dating to February, and repeatedly said he wants to be friends with base cat, not beef them.

[1:09:30] The scheduling hack. Waldo shared a practical tip for the room: schedule a space for visibility, then cancel it right before going live and start fresh — so you keep your comment section and full host capabilities. Talk turned to chaining Wednesday's Base space into the on-chain media community call for a "triple rollover."

Who said what

• ThatOneKitty (@ThatOneKitty__), host — ran the room, drove the Amber bot walkthrough, gave the WIFB project update, and offered tooling help to friend projects.
• Duck Therapist (@DuckTherapist_), cohost — stepped in to collect bot feedback; self-described introvert holding down the technical side.
• Waldo (@waldoforrealz), cohost — the room's connective tissue: bot setup, WAGBi's Telegram, the fart and panda bits, and the closing space-scheduling strategy.
• keRRy (@kerrymcook) — comic relief and lore-keeper (the AI-punking story, pandas, wacky tobacky).
• Momville (@cryptomomville) — the substantive voice, offering a measured critique of Base's constant pivots and a case for community-first patience.
• IMMAPRO (@Ox_Immapro) — first ambassador through the Amber bot; suggested multi-link submissions, found the process easy overall.
• Chicharito (@DjChicharitoX) — ambassador, applied and approved; asked how X-engagement links earn points.
• WAGBi (@WAGBi_) — introduced his B20 builder-cat meme project, set a friendly base-cat rivalry, and planned a Wagby Wednesday space.

Worth a full listen

• [47:26]–[53:00] — Momville on Base. The recap can't fully carry the arc of her argument about builders getting "crapped on," the FOMO-through-chains cycle, and why she still calls Base home. It's the hour's real substance.
• [37:12]–[46:00] — the AI-and-pandas run. A long, escalating comedic build (AI hallucinations → double hallucinations → the increasingly unhinged panda rulebook) that only works at full length and in the speakers' own back-and-forth.
• [1:01:44]–[1:08:00] — WAGBi's call-in. Equal parts earnest builder pitch, chart-avoidance comedy, and a genuinely interesting tangent into parody/IP law around copycat memes.
