@unity nothing less than changing the people who proposed and implemented this, and an investigation on the share sales from the insiders before the announcements will suffice.

We have heard you. We apologize for the confusion and angst the runtime fee policy we announced on Tuesday caused. We are listening, talking to our team members, community, customers, and partners, and will be making changes to the policy. We will share an update in a couple of days. Thank you for your honest and critical feedback.

@concrete1302 @IGamecast @Austen Sure they will! Pinky promise

@IGamecast @Austen Makes sense as long as wages keep pace with inflation.

New mortgage math is brutal. Say you buy a $1m house with $200k down at a 7% rate ($800k mortgage). Over the first three years you pay $193k ($5,322/mo.) After those $193k of payments your $800k mortgage is now at $774.5k. You paid $166k in interest, $25.5k in principle.

@SlorgoftheSlugs The collection name is different, and no sale history. Pretty obvious to be honest.

There's a new scam hitting the blue chip communities — Famous fox, Claynosaurz, Okay Bears. And the scary thing is — its a step more realistic than your typical OTC scam: 🧵 👇

@Zeneca NFTs (as PFP) are not proven value assets. Outside of a small circle of people with different motivations to promote the so-called ' value', NFTs (as PFP) are in the past. This chart just showed that the lack of value has become visible to most people and there is no new 💵 💵

I have no idea when, where, or how this bear market is going to end. Nobody knows wtf is gonna happen (and anyone that pretends to, is not someone worth listening to). All we can do is make educated guesses and use the power of probabilistic thinking to position ourselves as best we can for a variety of different outcomes. What does this mean for <>? No idea. Most projects are going to zero. Some will survive, and some will thrive. We’ll probably see a whole host of new NFT projects pop up and many of those will also go to zero, but some will survive, and some will thrive. So goes the cycle, so goes life. On the balance, I think there are still tremendous opportunities to make tremendous wealth in the crypto + NFT space. There is also TREMENDOUS risk, and tremendous capacity for people to lose everything and more. The smartest thing you can do, in my humble opinion, is to take a balanced approach. Have a strategy and stick to it. Whatever your strategy is, make sure you account for black swan events / doomsday scenarios. This generally means having a reasonable stockpile of cash / stable coins. What a ‘reasonable’ stockpile is will depend on your life situation and risk tolerance. A 22 year old with a secure job, living at home, with zero dependents can be infinitely more risky than someone in their 40s who is “full time crypto” with a mortgage and family to support. --------- In 2018 I left. In 2021 I returned and had massive regret at leaving. In 2022, I will not leave. I will be here in 2023, and in 2024, and in 2025. What you decide to do is up to you, but I would highly encourage that you at least keep one eye on this wild and wacky world that is web3 so that you don’t come back in a few years and wish you never left.

@Zeneca For useless speculation of course

Why Ordinals? Why NFTs on Bitcoin? Just... WHY? We’ve had NFTs on Ethereum for a long time. Ethereum has sophisticated smart contracts. Ethereum has far more functionality. Ethereum has the ability to store things on-chain, and with as much effective immutability as Bitcoin, insofar as you believe Ethereum will exist for as long as Bitcoin. ..and perhaps therein lies the detail. Blockchains can be thought of as canvases (or.. layers), on top of which you can do things. You can store a public record of ownership, and that ownership may represent a digital currency, or, it may represent something else. Like... Art. An Ordinals OG and level headed thinker, @dazza9x, wrote this great tweet sharing his thesis: x.com/dazza9x/status…. And that reminded me of this tweet from a week or two back by @DeeZe, on one of the “issues” with collecting on Tezos: x.com/deeze/status/1…. The art is AMAZING, but if there is less confidence in the chain, it might deter some collectoooors. Both tweets hit home to me, and put together, make a lot of sense. It’s also a concern a lot of people have had for collecting on Cardano, Solana, Avalanche, or one of many other chains that are widely viewed as less likely to exist / be thriving in a decade or five in comparison to Ethereum. We actually saw the reality of Solana’s centralization issue implode and the impact that had on the entire ecosystem after FTX’s collapse. Chain-risk is a real thought/concern when collecting NFTs, and especially when investing in them. And you can yell at me until you’re blue in the face about collecting art for art’s sake, but the reality is the vast vast vast majority of collectors also consider the financial elements and ability to re-sell their jpegs at some point for profit, even if they’re truly okay with things going to zero. None of us have unlimited monies. And even if you do purely only care about the art, you should care about it existing and being recoverable decades from now. SO. If the risk increases when moving from Ethereum to most other chains, would it not stand to reason that the risk reduces when moving to Bitcoin, (un?)arguably the most decentralized, secure, and likely-to-exist chain a century from now? This, to me, is the core thesis and WHY that collecting on Bitcoin might make sense. It is through this lens that I view Ordinals, and have since February, even if I haven’t been active in the ecosystem until recently. The Drawbacks Ordinals are not some holy grail solution to NFTs. Much of the power of NFTs is due to smart contracts and the interoperability possible between a decentralized web of tokens. The ability to transact at speed and scale is also an important element for a large percentage of NFTs, and neither is particularly feasible on Bitcoin (at the L1 layer at least). Energy consumption was / is an enormous narrative around Blockchain technology and many people, companies, and governments will have a much easier time justifying transacting on Ethereum or another PoS chain vs a PoW one. For some, Bitcoin is not “meant” to serve as a blockchain for jpegs, or any utility beyond being a digital currency. It muddies the water. The thesis and bull case for Bitcoin was/is clear without Ordinals: digital gold. Scarce, secure, decentralized. Or as Satoshi famously and eloquently put it: A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution. Debating this last point is probably beyond the scope of what I want to cover today, but it would be remiss to not at least mention it. Not all fans of Bitcoin are fans of Ordinals. Then again, not all fans of Ethereum were/are fans of NFTs. Who knows where this all goes but it's a fun area to be exploring, and I have to say, the community is genuinely wonderful and full of great humans. Perhaps because of a shared trait that generally great humans share: curiosity. p.s if you share that curiosity, drop a note below - I am looking to invite people wanting to learn and explore ordinals into our Discord server, so we can all help each other navigate this space together. Sensibly.

@farokh what were your expectations?

I just got added to an influencer group chat About 30 of the biggest influencers All coordinating a strategic pump and dump getting in at the ground level and planning to dump at their desired figures I didn’t think shit like this was real until now

@ianmiles unless it's called a sidecycle, you know the answer

Who’s in the wrong? The cyclists riding on the sidewalk or the pedestrian?
