Being “pro-crypto” and “pro-how-much-can-I-extract-from-crypto” are two very different things

Remember how back in 2022-2023 there were a lot of crypto influencers who went completely crazy and people tuned in because they wanted to watch the drama/train wreck? Then over time people stopped caring about what they had to say, so in order to become relevant again, they would say increasingly ridiculous things to try and get the spotlight back on themselves? But as time went on, their followers dried up and no one cared anymore about their opinion. The shitcoins they shilled no longer moved on their tweets/videos because people realized they were being gaslit about everything. The same thing will likely happen on a larger scale now. People sit around waiting for the next "TACO trade" as markets normally rally on the news. After concessions are made, markets go back to "normal" as people are confident that the uncertainty is over with. But then a few weeks later, it all comes back again. It gets exhausting for the market. Eventually, this dynamic will change, and no amount of flip-flopping and erratic behavior will get market participants to trust that the markets are a safe place to keep their money. We have not yet reached that inflection point, but it is likely something that is coming. The TACO trade has worked for a while, but it will eventually fail. And when it does, it will be due to market participants having no faith that what they are being told is the truth.

This market is obviously BS. It doesn’t even feel price-driven anymore, just headline-driven chaos. And the way moves happen, it sure looks like some people know what’s coming before everyone else. The rest of us either get lucky, get trapped, or get stopped out in the noise. Insane environment.

$UNH is up 10% after CMS finalized its 2027 Medicare Advantage & Part D payment policies including a 2.5% average rate increase worth more than $13B in added MA payments. CMS also kept 2024 MA risk model while tightening how chart-review diagnoses count toward 2027 risk scores.

Unpopular opinion about passive income. Most people who want it aren't actually building it. They're researching it. There's a difference between knowing how DeFi liquidity pools work and having $5,000 in one. Between understanding dividend ETFs and actually owning shares that pay you monthly. Information is free. Deployment is the hard part. That's the gap most people never close

The biggest mental hurdle in real estate isn't the math—it is the phantom loss. Last week a repair bill wiped out my monthly cash flow. On paper, it looks like a "zero" month. But the tenant still paid the mortgage. I had to remind myself that even when the bank account doesn't grow, the balance sheet does. The tenant is buying the asset for me every 30 days, even when I'm paying for a plumber. It is a weird setup where you can "lose" for a month but still be closer to the finish line than you were 30 days ago. #RealEstate

Most people are trapped in the AI fear loop. Will it take my job? Am I safe? The honest answer is both yes and no. The people who do best from here will be the ones who build skills they can rely on if their role gets disrupted, and learn how to use AI to create leverage for themselves. Getting out of the system is one thing. Knowing how to survive once it stops feeding you is another. I’m building income for the future, in public, as I figure it out. Follow along. #FutureOfWork #IncomeStreams

Oil markets did something strange last week. $580M in contracts traded in under 60 seconds, exactly 15 minutes before the Iran news hit the wires. I mentioned this in the latest issue, but the timing is what stays with me. If you can't win on being the first to know, you have to win on being the one who doesn't have to care. My timeline isn't 60 seconds. It is 10 years. Yield makes the insider games irrelevant because I am not trading the headline. I am stacking the asset. $CL_F $USO #OOTT

Camus@newstart_2024·
Truth is now considered a right-wing conspiracy. That’s the chilling line from Melanie Phillips that stopped me in my tracks. She explains how we’ve reached a point where simply stating observable reality — whether it’s basic biology defining a woman or pushing back against blanket accusations that all white people are inherently bad — gets you branded as evil. Not wrong. Evil. Therefore you must be silenced, cancelled, or erased. No debate. No evidence allowed. She calls it cultural totalitarianism: a Manichean worldview where one ideology claims a monopoly on goodness, progress, and reason itself. Dissent isn’t argued with — it’s treated as a moral threat that has to be removed. The deepest irony? In an era that smugly ditched religion in the name of superior rationality, we’ve ended up rejecting reason, evidence, and open inquiry altogether. We’re so “rational” we’ve dispensed with the very tools of rationality. It doesn’t add up. Her take has me wondering how we got here — and how quickly disagreement turned into moral excommunication. Anyone else seeing this pattern play out in conversations lately? Where have you felt truth itself become off-limits?

This market manipulation is exhausting. It's obvious what's happening Hardly matters to those who buy assets for the long haul This new world order is all about adaptability If a tweet or a speech can send the market up or down Just front run with the insider's 🤔

@DBCrypt0 Defi needs to value security Until these companies take it seriously Defi will never go mainstream and will be labeled a scam

🚨BREAKING: Drift Protocol just got drained for over $200 million Solana's largest perps DEX. Gone in one transaction batch. The attacker didn't find a smart contract bug. They didn't exploit a flash loan. They walked in with the keys. On-chain data shows a single account initiating massive outbound transfers. SOL, JitoSOL, WETH, wrapped BTC, stablecoins in USD, EUR, and JPY. Even FARTCOIN. They took the FARTCOIN. A blockchain security researcher confirmed what everyone suspected: a private key compromise. The admin signer was either leaked or someone with access pulled the trigger themselves. And here's what makes it worse. The attacker funded the wallets a week before the exploit. Ran a test transaction. Then waited. This wasn't a hack. This was a heist with a rehearsal. Phantom Wallet already cut off access to the protocol. Drift posted about "unusual activity" and told users to stop depositing. $200 million gone and the official response is "unusual activity." Some estimates put the real number closer to $270 million. We won't know until the dust settles and the wallets stop moving. The funds are already being swapped to USDC and bridged to Ethereum. Classic exit playbook. This is potentially the largest Web3 exploit in three years. But who needs security when you have speed, right Kyle? 🚀

@TheDeFinvestor I've been saying the same thing for awhile now. People value security of their assets. Not a great selling point when you can't guarantee safety. With so many hacks...makes you wonder why security hasn't been beefed up, seems suspicious..🤔

It's been a few rough months for DeFi. • Balancer was exploited for over $110M in a hack last year • Resolv was exploited for over $25M in March • and now Drift was hacked for $220M It's pretty hard to onboard new people to DeFi with so many hacks occuring.
Lookonchain@lookonchain

Drift Protocol appears to have been exploited, with over $270M in assets suspiciously transferred to wallet HkGz4K. 🚨 That's crazy! intel.arkm.com/explorer/addre…

Something most people get backwards about market fear. When the Fear and Greed Index is at Extreme Fear it doesn't mean the bottom is in. It means most people have already sold or are thinking about it. The ones who bought during the last two Extreme Fear stretches aren't complaining right now. Not a prediction. Just a pattern worth knowing.
