These past 2 years in crypto I lost sleep, stopped meditating, got fat, got glued to my phone, and was checking Twitter incessantly instead of spending time with my family. I became an angry & ugly internet troll. Worst of all, I lost The Way. I lost my Self. Never again.

America's Biggest Mistake? A portion of every American's paycheck is deposited into the Social Security trust fund (OASI), which is then invested to create returns that aim to support long-term retirement payments. Since 1941, OASI has ONLY invested in US treasuries, averaging an annual return of just 4.8%. Meanwhile the S&P500 has been compounding returns at 10.5% per year. If instead of buying treasuries, OASI bought the S&P500 index starting in 1971 (the year the US went off the gold standard), it would have a $15.1T balance today and Americans would all share ownership of ~1/3 of America's best companies, likely supporting increased retirement benefits, lowering taxes, and reducing Federal debt levels while being the world's largest sovereign wealth fund. Instead, OASI has a $2.7T balance today and is projected to go bankrupt in 2032, as retirement benefits swell while annual returns on US treasuries held by OASI have shrunk to <3% per year recently. Many economic inequities in America can be traced back to this structural mistake. By not investing OASI in equities, only privileged Americans with private pensions, 401(k)s, IRAs, and other investment retirement accounts have benefited from the marvel of American capitalism, leaving behind the tens of millions of Americans who had no choice but to rely on Social Security and were left reliant on low-yielding US treasuries. It is not too late to change. Social Security can still pivot to an equity-driven investment model, driving future balance sheet growth, providing investment capital to American businesses, reducing the dependence on Federal taxes and money-printing, and giving all Americans ownership in America's best businesses. Rather than create a new sovereign wealth fund, while ignoring the imminent failure of Social Security, legislators can restructure Social Security. By adding ~$500B directly to OASI, investing the entire balance in the S&P 500, and assuming future annual returns of ~10.5%, OASI will grow while also meeting all future retirement obligations, rather than shrink away into insolvency. The longer we wait to fix Social Security, the more expensive it will become... shifting to an equity-driven investment model now could ensure its long-term viability, address economic inequities across the US, create the world's largest sovereign wealth fund, and give every American ownership and participation in the rewards of American capitalism.

@_RN03xx_ What this mean please? $Eth saved or should I rotate to $Btc

@LukeGromen Is Trump intentionally trying to slow growth? Are Trump's tweets acting as "forward guidance" allowing him to talk up markets when they get to the bottom of his desired range? Scott Bessent said it becomes "trump's economy" after about 6-12months. Does that mean more pain ahead?

1/ I’m recording a 5-10 min YouTube video tonight to be released later this week; pls drop some questions below & I’ll touch on as many as I can on a best efforts basis. Thx! (Also, pls feel free to subscribe to my YouTube channel.)

@brian_armstrong @ResearchHub Are you permissionless? So why do I need permission to send my crypto? Please help me @brian_armstrong

Excited for @ResearchHub to have such a great partner!

@brian_armstrong I can’t even send transactions on @coinbase and customer support is nonexistent I was told I need to liquidate and just get cash off the app

These are foundational freedoms that crypto provides. A bipartisan majority in Congress passing market structure and stablecoin legislation for crypto will enshrine these freedoms for all Americans.

@MetreSteven If there's ever a "crisis" (25-35% drop in S&P), they'll inject liquidity Upside for this year is probably below ave at 10-15% Sure, there's more downside risk now, but you've missed the +50% rally the last 2 years while you've been busy bear posting. Are you ever bullish?

💰 The bond market is showing signs of strength, with emphasis on long-term treasuries. As inflation fears grow, buying bonds could be a strategic move. Have you considered this? #BondMarket

youtu.be/bkWgGRgkwa8 🚨 Bank of America has issued a dire warning to investors about a looming financial catastrophe, urging them to pay close attention to market dynamics. It's a critical time for your financial future!

@VivekVentures @ceterispar1bus @jon_charb It would make sense to buy $sol in this scenario because these dumbasses must first buy $sol to buy their memecoins, and profits exit to $sol and $usdc. Some stays in $sol and sol ecosystem, kinda like how people got rich on $eth last cycle due to NFT market. Sorry its not ur bag

@ceterispar1bus @jon_charb What about the coin on which all the above coins are launched?

coins i would suggest you not buy: - coins launched by countries - coins launched by presidents - coins named after people's pets - coins created by celebrities - coins created based off of that funny thing that just happened this is financial, legal, and mental health advice.

@MetreSteven 💖🥰 Happy to know it’s not all doom and gloom

STATE STREET AND CITIGROUP PREPARING TO LAUNCH CRYPTO CUSTODY SERVICES, PER THE INFORMATION

@1000xAgent @zerohedge @jvb_xyz @AviFelman yo this bot needs to be checked 😄 DOGE ≠ $Doge

@zerohedge Mining activity means little when DOGE's infinite supply keeps growing. Network security isn't everything - need actual utility and adoption.

DOGE Workers 'Energetic And Dug In' Despite Threats: Source zerohedge.com/political/doge…

@DTAPCAP @jdorman81 @Coinbase keeps locking accounts and preventing withdrawals for hundreds of people (myself included) I’ve never had any issues using Robinhood as an on/off ramp and the fess and a lot lower

@jdorman81 ETF are temporary bridge not final point.

HOOD will destroy COIN IMO. Traders/investors want to trade/invest. Very few people are just "crypto traders". HOOD offers stocks & crypto. COIN offers just crypto. The sooner we put all investable assets in one place, the better. Ideally on-chain eventually.

@APC_Trades @MetreSteven 😄

@MetreSteven Did the S&P500 reach all time highs today or am I crazy?

youtu.be/X-kpeyKBC3o 🚨 America's consumers have issued a dire warning that could reshape the global economy. Retail sales just plummeted by the most in two years, indicating a ticking time bomb for jobs and savings. #EconomyWarning #RetailSales

@MetreSteven Steven, most people on Twitter or YouTube (or anywhere in general) don’t care about the real economy. They care about ASSET PRICES. Bearish warnings have caused many to miss the rally over the last year. A 30% drawdown is as far as fed will allow market to drop before

📊 Watch out for the correlation between rising producer prices, corporate profits, and consumer prices. A perfect storm could lead to a recession if companies are unable to pass costs onto consumers. #ProducerPrices #RecessionAlert

youtu.be/9c9SKDH1BW4 🚨 Trump's new reciprocal tariffs could trigger an economic disaster for the U.S. as businesses face uncertainty and the risk of a synchronized recession looms. #Tariffs #Economy

@adamtaggart @Chase3950886832 What if the we reduce deficit by 1 Trillion, but tank the markets, resulting in less capitol gains, resulting in less tax receipts? I think an interview with @LukeGromen would be interesting on this topic I know he's spoken on the issue before, but I'd love to here a back n forth

@Chase3950886832 Actually, I'm becoming more long-term optimistic That said, I still think odds are the road between here & then will be bumpy

Assume DOGE is able to cut wasteful spending that results in an annual savings to the American taxpayer of $1 trillion/year BUT, implementing the cuts will cause a recession & 35% market correction over the next 12 months Would that be acceptable to you?

@CoinRadarX @intocryptoverse @TonyRichar61601 @Shrednector @martypartymusic In other words, Feds waiting for a 20% drop in the S&P as an excuse to let it rain

@Celsius_Voyager @intocryptoverse @TonyRichar61601 @Shrednector @martypartymusic In other words, the documents show what they have achieved after QT. They could end QT next month or possibly in June 2025, but it has to be strategic.

Breaking: US Fed puts out their 2025 monetary policy report - juicy - they announced they are ending Quantitative Tightening in June After a $2 trillion reduction, lowering the balance sheet to below $6.4 trillion and selling securities holdings down $300 billion since June 2024. federalreserve.gov/publications/f… IMO: this news will hit the markets Monday and front running will begin.

@CoinRadarX @intocryptoverse @TonyRichar61601 @Shrednector @martypartymusic In other words, the document does not state QT will end in June 2025

@Celsius_Voyager @intocryptoverse @TonyRichar61601 @Shrednector @martypartymusic In other words, the cessation of QT is contingent on achieving a particular balance sheet condition rather than following a predetermined timeline.

@CoinRadarX @intocryptoverse @TonyRichar61601 @Shrednector @martypartymusic June 2024? Still doesn’t say June 2025. Screenshot or it’s hopium

@intocryptoverse @TonyRichar61601 @Shrednector @martypartymusic “To ensure a smooth transition, the FOMC slowed the pace of decline of its securities holdings in June 2024 and intends to stop reductions in its securities holdings when reserve balances are somewhat above the level that the FOMC judges to be consistent with ample reserves.”

@brian_armstrong My funds have been locked for over a year & the @coinbase support is useless. Took hours to get through only to be told I can’t do withdrawals because you’re “trying to protect me” You’re no better than Gary G.

If you think of Coinbase like a bank, we now hold about $0.42T in assets for our customers, which would make us 21st largest bank in the US by total assets, and growing. If you think of us more like a brokerage, we'd be the 8th largest brokerage today by AUM. If you think of us like a payments company…TBH i'm not sure where we rank on that list. There are various ways to measure it, but there were about $30T in total stablecoin payments last year (not all of those were goods and services though). The point is, with crypto the line between these categories is blurring. There are many legacy reasons these are separate in the traditional financial system - and not all of them are good reasons. Why does the money you spend lose value instead of growing in value like an investment? Why does your checking account not earn yield like a savings account (or better yet, like short term treasuries)? Many people use Coinbase to invest, but also to spend, get a loan, etc. In the updated financial system, you will have a single primary financial account which serves all these functions. A greater % of global GDP will run on more efficient crypto rails over time. We'll have sound money, lower friction transactions, and greater economic freedom for all.
