Apparently, many of you still don't know this but several (often smaller) exchanges offer big accounts a fake account to publicly trade with that accont, flexing big positions. I could call out a few exchanges and traders but not here for drama. Just be suspicious.

How on earth does $pump still have ~1mn usd in buybacks daily

@0xjune_ NEET-sidelined? too bad

Guy 1: Is there anything you wanna buy during the dip? Guy 2: Oh yeah NEET, it looks strong Guy 1: But you've never traded memes Guy 2: That’s fine, Alon Mitch Remus Rasmr Lexapro Pow got us Work HR narrator: Pause. Can you tell me what just went wrong in this interaction?

@gammichan @emi_305 other countries have similar AI capabilities, true, but that doesn’t mean they will get the same outcome & advancements from it having the same tool doesnt mean getting the same results

@emi_305 Yes, it will bring a new age. But to the point of the OP, other countries have it too, it's not just improving the US position.

I've talked before about how a lot of technology is hitting up against the wall of physics, this is evident in war as well and I think it's starting to become a problem for American supremacy. The SR-71 was developed in the 60s and traveled over mach 3. We still don't really go faster than that. The F-14 Tomcat from the 70s is still a capable fighter jet, the modern F-22 improved in other electronic dimensions good for support roles but not that much as an actual fighter. The F-117 had stealth in the 80s, its radar signature was the size of a small bird, essentially nothing. Can't get smaller than nothing. Nukes are 80 years old and the only reason every industrial nation doesn't have them already is just international enforcement. Missile defenses are at the limits and defeated by numbers or just going hypersonic. It's like trying to swat a mosquito out of the air by throwing something at it and the mosquito is the fastest moving thing on earth. Barring some huge breakthrough like the conspiracies that US has alien anti gravity or whatever, there simply just haven't been as many dimensions for the American war machine to progress in. A lot of the supremacy today comes simply from numbers. China has aircraft carriers with modern fighters too, US just has 10x as many of them. And a major problem stemming from this is that being at the frontier is getting costlier quickly. As more and more is optimized it gets more expensive to squeeze out another 1% improvement. You arrive at today's situation where the US is throwing multi billion dollar fighters at $20k drones. Other countries may not be able to build things 100% as good as the US but 90% as good for 1/1,000th the cost works pretty damn well... It's not WW2 anymore where the Polish were fighting Nazi tanks on horseback, the playing field gets tighter every year since the US has been bashing up against the limits of physics for over 60 years. We're now at a place where even countries not typically considered a major power can hold their own and I find myself wondering today what that means for the future, more war as power gaps shrink? Or more peace as stalemate more frequently becomes the calculated outcome?

@aadvark89 @LordOfMachines @Polymarket @PolymarketTrade yeah you would have to wait for the resolution date, in some cases it could be a pain in the ass

@0xWonk @LordOfMachines @Polymarket @PolymarketTrade not really a risk cause you'll always have the same dollar worth of shares

ironically, the safest place to park your stables right now is not DeFi, its Polymarket (the "gambling platform" everyone keeps hating on) 4% annual risk-free yield on longterm markets: - go to any Presidential Election market (or FIFA market) - select a candidate - split shares yield is paid out daily and you can merge shares anytime to get instant liquidity + potential $POLY airdrop

@aadvark89 @LordOfMachines @Polymarket @PolymarketTrade i could see them not allowing the merge just before TGE to push volume up, that might be a risk

@LordOfMachines @Polymarket @PolymarketTrade yes, you get equal quantities of yes and no shares which you can merge anytime to get back your dollars

@UnidentifiedDao glad to see that even after all these years UDAO keeps being one of the best free-groups out there missing my days there already 🥲

@0xJezza no way

ignoring the bait title, we ourselves dont pitch as crypto to data center/ai clients they just care about the product aka: how to make money does a bank explain themselves as MBS issuance or just that they get you money to buy your home? defi is fintech

@ariobtc @spacexbt @bubblemaps you know you can warn people about team bundling and also playing it right?

@spacexbt @bubblemaps @0xWonk So he faded the hardest runner of the week on the whole run up because he thought it was bundled (which isn’t even a bad thing)

BREAKING: Edel Finance sniped 30% of $EDEL Then tried to hide it behind a maze of wallets and liquidity positions Here's how they did it 🧵

@spacexbt @bubblemaps they need to be way better if they want to hide from us onchain nerds

@bubblemaps my brother @0xWonk knew from day1

current state of the feed

crazy crypto has been divinely protected so far i hope it continues to be

@0xdetweiler and if we are in a bear? 😳

-25% from ath. Prob good bid at -30-35% if u think we're not in a bear

@toptickcrypto I love the idea, count me in. Threw you a DM

Today is the feast of St Homobonus, the patron saint of business people. As is tradition I will match donations in increments of $100 or less up to a total of $1k to charities of your choice (that preferably take crypto). Send me proof

@SilenceCapital i would advise less posts like this, for the sake of our industry

Food for thought: $ETH was the absolute consensus trade of the last cycle $BTC is the absolute consensus trade of this cycle I don't make the rules

CEXs weren’t always this way. There used to be a time where there was some ethically acceptable level of due diligence. Now, every day you have something like TRB, COAI, MYX, AIA, GIGGLE, MMT, JELLY. You don’t hate these people enough.

Good advice from @raares Seen so many newbs who should never have been touching leverage months ago posting pnls, where are they now? 😂 if you think you can win the house in gambling maybe u should just go into actual casino and play big stakes maybe u have better odds

@sayinshallah too much crime we went from regulators fucking the industry to a total wild west full of crime i wish we could get to a middle point

cz is pumping random shit to milk as much money as possible to refund wintermute

@0xngmi yes of course

Given what happened with stream, should we ask all protocols that have funds in CEXs to share with us a view-only api key to verify or delist them? Currently all protocols with funds on CEXs are a black box in terms of verification
