@DHSgov And by law you mean public execution without trial…

@GaryGensler @SECGov Good riddance Gary! You are the worst thing that’s happened to the US. I hope you’re unhirable after this. 🚮

On January 20, 2025 I will be stepping down as @SECGov Chair. A thread 🧵⬇️

👥 @Polkadot's tokenholder base continues to grow:

@upstatefederlst They raise their price to $45 to undercut those that imported and make larger profits for their shareholders while consumers still pay a higher cost.

Hey what happens if the shirt is made in the US for $20?

@AirmoneyDegn Absolutely disgusting. Way to screw the environment with a giant box just to give away a gift card for “the right to buy”. You guys need to work on your priorities.

@frogule 8 seems like a stretch. Just crossed 6 years myself and feel like there are not very many of us out there.

Know anyone with 8 years marketing experience in Web3? Asking for a friend

Excited to attend #Bitcoin 2024 in Nashville this week! Hit me up if you’re in town, should be a great time.

@gpuboteth Amazing work guys! Can’t wait for fiat payments!

Shoutout to @gpuboteth for another week of payouts from their browser extension. My first server is nearly finished and has been an amazing experience. Just added 9 more and the payouts continue to work perfectly.

@JasonYanowitz Not to mention different audiences for different events. Not everything is a retail focused event nor should it be.

I will never understand this take. Few thoughts: - conferences cost many millions of dollars to host - so many unseen costs that general public doesn't see (insurance, temps, permitting, security, food, dealing with cities, dealing with unions, etc) - venues are booked years in advance (about to book our 2026 [!!] venue, timing the market with future venue bookings is the single biggest risk for our biz) - sponsorship prices are based on supply/demand and demand is higher than it's been in years - our conference revenue funds lots of other things across the business that add value to the industry (journalism, podcasts, newsletters, etc) - i've seen the sponsorship decks for every other conference (something something glass houses and stones) - tickets are only $199 right now, $179 if group pass, or free if you're a developer The list goes on... Trust me, if putting on large conferences was so easy, everyone would do it.

@jonwu_ @ravmike @AshleyStanhope Great thread . My only addition is on pitch crafting. When writing a good pitch look at it from the journalist view. Think about their goals, how can your news/story help them accomplish clicks, time on site, etc. Like any partner your journalist has goals and metrics too.

If you read this and think, "This all sounds terrible, I just want a partner who can do this for me," send me a DM and I can refer you to some folks. Special thanks to @ravmike and @AshleyStanhope who helped review early versions of this thread! LGTM (let's go to market).

For an exclusive, this is critical because the point of an exclusive is the journalist is the best and only news source that covers the story at the time it's released (e.g. 9AM on Friday, May 17th). If you release any news prior to the embargo time, you burn that bridge.

@jonwu_ @fortyiq @AshleyStanhope Generally agree with this. Just one critique, you can easily get a pr firm for 10-15k sometimes even as little as 5k per month. 50k is a lot for a pr retainer. I really hope there aren’t startups paying this much for PR.

Making an announcement soon? Don't hire a PR agency. Definitely not through Series A, and maybe not ever. You can execute PR internally with a junior resource without having to pay a $50K / month retainer. Here are the basics in <5 minutes (bookmark this):

@blockchainedbb $gpubot. Solid #Depin project with revenue sharing already in place through buyback/burn. Only a little over 2 month old project and they already have two fully functional projects. They’ve begun announcing partnerships and have a healthy bag for marketing for the future.

Shill me some small caps that you are buying in this dip

Wonderful news for those who lost their funds to the #FTX drama! I hope this doesn’t soften the lesson not to leave all your funds on exchanges you all learned through the FTX saga. coindesk.com/policy/2024/05…
