selling $ore too early is worse than being homeless

The resiliency of pumpfun’s revenue is honestly impressive Who would have thought that peer-to-peer rugs are a $500M/year business model

Depending on how well this actually works, it will absolutely have an impact on headcount for entry level bankers and investment professionals The biggest reason why banks have not been able to fully automate the analyst workflow is because of integration between various tools > models built on excel need to be outputted into powerpoint > the model assumptions are often informed by various third party data points, including from Bloomberg, FactSet, CapIQ etc > the analyst is responsible for taking feedback from a management call or meeting with other investors, and then thinking through how that impacts the assumptions that go into a model Even though AI is already fantastic at handling each individual task, it cannot yet integrate the complete workflow across all the various tools and data sources This feels like a real first step in handing over a full work session to an AI agent

NEW: Major investigation dropping February 26 on one of crypto’s most profitable businesses where multiple employees abused internal data to insider trade over a prolonged period of time.

solana runs on two validator clients, both forks of the same code. one bug takes down $117b in monthly dex volume. firedancer beta mid-february tests jump's ground-up c client that hit 1m tps. validators switch or they don't. client diversity happens or sol stays fragile at $91.

pump.fun bought back $250m worth of $pump tokens using 100% of protocol revenue. token still down 60% from ico price. $637m revenue in 2025 ranked third in all crypto behind tether and circle. 99.26% of tokens launched never graduate to raydium. wintermute dumping into the buybacks. when your business model profits from user losses and insiders front-run every launch through mev extraction, no amount of buybacks fixes it. 6x price-to-fees looks cheap until you realize the game is rigged at the infrastructure layer

JUST IN: Average age of a new hire is 42 years old

It's difficult to explain to anyone over 40 but applying for jobs is kind of a waste of time.

BREAKING: Silver prices drop -8% in minutes briefly after hitting a fresh record high. The volatility we are seeing in commodities is truly incredible.

jupiter replacing $500m usdc in jlp with jupusd forces every perps trader to touch their stablecoin. 74.3% dex volume share means they control the quote asset for most solana trades. not launching a stablecoin, weaponizing a routing monopoly. circle can't compete with forced adoption through liquidity control

Social skills are the new coding. Collaboration is the new super power. People with traditionally "soft skills" now fare better in the labor market than those with more quantitative skills. What I see in my workplace is that people with a mix of soft skills + hard skills are those who flourish. They are incredible team members, leaders, and mentors, which pays off dramatically over time.

The $ORE Revenue has spiked to $233K Today 🤯

It is 4x easier to get accepted into Harvard (3.5%) than to graduate a memecoin from a Solana bonding curve (0.89% in 2025)

ORE back above $100. The project that can’t seem to die. The core team and community that doesn’t stop shipping. The asset that natively inherits Solana’s performance+privacy layers+DeFi composability. Billions, then trillions.

The ORE shield pool has just broken a new deposit record of over >500 ORE. The larger the pool, the stronger the privacy. Encrypted ORE, now on Solana.

@futarist agreed

@pyrom0n Futarchy is the unlock. Governance by markets beats vibes every time.

2026 altcoin narrative: Revenue-sharing tokens with real protocol yields to holders + futarchy-driven governance. Token = onchain equity or gtfo

this aave drama is actually the best ad for futarchy > propose a governance change > let markets price its impact > act in tokenholders best interest feels like it will become standard at some point

@brewmarkets it's ok turd, you go when you feel like it

Performance in 2025: S&P 500: 17% Nasdaq: 21% Gold: 69% Bitcoin: -4%

"For Gen Z-ers, work is now more depressing than unemployment," per NYT.

Defi founders who've already cashed out 500M-1B from their coins switching off support for their tokens and redirecting revenues to themselves. It's obvious what's happening. The token game as we know it is ending & needs a full restructuring if the space is to have a future.
