@cobie Amazing and big congratulations, but how did they come up with that valuation? You guys did what 20m in revenue? Impressed.

when i started building echo 2 years ago, i knew it had 95% chance of failing. to be honest, i couldnt really imagine any other outcome, but i thought at least it may be a noble failure worth attempting. i certainly didn't think echo would be sold to coinbase, but, here we are: today coinbase bought echo for ~$375m. echo will remain a standalone platform under its current brand for now, but we will integrate sonar's public sale product into coinbase, and likely introduce new ways for founders to access investors, and for investors to access opportunities into coinbase itself. over the years i have chatted to brian a handful of times, and mostly to complain at him honestly. i have always respected how brian would listen to an outsider chat shit at him on the phone and take the feedback seriously. now, instead of complaining, i will have the opportunity try to do the work to make things better. crypto itself has moved on a long way since we started working on echo. i guess partially this is because of the election result. but, i feel energised by a lot of the cool things being built in crypto again: hyperliquid, zcash, stablecoin supercyle, and so on. feels like a good time to be on the field instead of an idiot with a twitter account yapping nonsense. well, i guess i still will be that. anyway, job's not finished. onwards. oh fuck yeah, before i go, the final season of up only (now "unc only" due to our severe old age) will commence when we figure out who the guests should be lol cobber

@MarioNawfal Homelessness’s is a failure of society. Get these people to work, or get them mental / physical help. A box on the side of the road with water won’t solve anything.

@RupertLowe10 The UK was an amazing country a decade ago, what happened?

Our Rape Gang Inquiry has today released research detailing eighty-five local authorities in which the gang-based sexual exploitation of children is taking place, or has historically done so. This is one of the most comprehensive exposes of the rape gang scandal to date.

The most important chart you'll read today: Why is President Trump's attempt to fire Fed Governor Cook so pivotal? Because, it would give Trump-appointed Fed Governors the MAJORITY on the Fed board. 4 of 7 Fed Governors, excluding Fed Chair Powell, would be Trump-appointed. This would materially increase the the number of rate cuts ahead. As President Trump calls for 300 bps of rate cuts, this case will be pivotal. Never in Fed history has this happened.

@TheJerzWay Very few ways to trade this opportunity unfortunately.

The longest bear market: The US Dollar’s purchasing power. Over the last 100 years, the US Dollar has lost -95% of its purchasing power. Since 2000, the US Dollar has lost over -40% of its purchasing power. Own assets or be left behind.

@MarioNawfal a country that works for the people, imagine that

How real life monopoly money was invented.

📊 UPDATE: $ENA will unlock $101.87M in tokens this upcoming week. The next 6 token unlocks combined total is slightly over $45M.

@PEF_info 100% Europe is an over regulated mess.

82% of European-founded tech HQs move to the US. 90% leave the EU entirely. Why? Because red tape is driving startups away. Europe is literally taxing itself. Thoughts?

Trader of the year award goes to @SpeakerPelosi I hope she makes a master class.
