@PerpetualCow @TheDesertLynx Yeah no. He pushed for the sha3 algorithm and made a deal with *an asic builder* to do so in exchange for a boatload of asics which he pointed at the chain from day 1 when no one else but them had them. Commence liquidity rape.

@TheDesertLynx from what I have been told he never sold any tokens and left before they vested. Sometimes ventures go bad but it doesn't seem like a grift. His technical expertise is extremely useful. In what we are developing.

Upon Riccardo joining Wagyu as an Advisor we have seen large inflows into $XMR through Wagyu causing $XMR to soar by around 10% to $340. This is for the future of Monero.

@0xHeatt @benjamincowen Lmaooo Virtual is AI so its not a shitcoin? Pengu? You're a retard that takes ivermectin, get a fkin grip bro x.com/i/status/20313…

@Latespoon @benjamincowen Siren is called out as fraud, Virtual is AI. You're truly dumb fuck.

Bunch of Satanists made you believe lies backed by the dumbest "proofs" imaginable. No matter how much you know about trading, you're as naive as 3y old. University professors were perfect example during COVID, when "deniers" were mocked same way you're doing now, clown.

@0xHeatt @benjamincowen Lmaooo "Where did you see shitcoining? $virtual $pengu $siren" x.com/i/status/20379…

@Latespoon @benjamincowen Yes, what's your point? Try learning these tickers retardio.

@0xHeatt @benjamincowen This you? x.com/i/status/20400…

@benjamincowen This is my lane. 25 years researching all from history, medicine, space... Where did you see shitcoining dumbass?

@fundedguy2001 @benjamincowen Aircraft from 1969 btw

@benjamincowen Yea bruv Surely mandem went to the moon while our airplanes were cardboard and tape compared to modern yet when our tech today is levels above and we still ain't been back once!! And they have the cheek to claim they "lost access to the technology that got us to the moon" 😂

Was fortunate enough to see the Artemis II launch in person. Really cool to see humans going back to the moon! Exploring the next frontier is vital to our long-term survival.

@0xAlmir Shit outta liquidity

@donalt Am also dealing with a sick newborn + reflux / CMPA right now I have genuinely been less tired after 3 days straight of raving & disco dust It's the mental exhaustion that really knocks you down an extra couple of steps. Feels like it will never end, you know it will, but still

My daughter been sick for the last week Been sleeping in the guestroom with her because she's suffering and feels better when I'm around Man I didn't know what exhaustion felt like before having a sick child to take care of while also having a newborn in the house She wakes up every 15 minutes or so to check if I'm still next to her and once she notices she tries to cuddle me as tightly as she can which wakes me up Over and over and over again, for days now And when I try to catch up on sleep during the day my son goes wild

@Cryptopathic @BinanceUS Zcash is the opposite of cypherpunk. It even has a 20% tax. Put down the kool aid.

@BinanceUS you almost delisted zcash earlier this year

bring back the cypherpunks!

@Evan_ss6 Lost count of how many times I have sent this in group chats x.com/Evan_ss6/statu…

@Blizzox2 @jonatanpallesen That's not misrepresentation, that's data that doesn't suit your viewpoint and must therefore be ignored (??)

@jonatanpallesen Misrepresentation, again, Van de beek et all 2023 shows that working first gen migrants are profitable. The issue is with first gen migrants that dont work for whatever reason that pull the total number in the negative. Second gen though, the total is positive.

"What bad has mass immigration to Europe ever done for us?" - "The raping?" "What?" - "The raping" "Oh yeah yeah. They do rape an awful lot that’s true yes." - "And the welfare costs" - "Oh yes the welfare costs, Rich. The unemployment benefits alone." "Ok, I will grant you the raping, and the welfare costs, are two bad things mass immigration have done for us." - "And the terrorism" "Oh yeah obviously the terrorism. I mean the terrorism goes without saying. But apart from the raping, the welfare costs, and the terrorism…" - "Violent crime" - "Honor killings" - "Car bombings "Yeah, you are all right, fair enough." - "Burqas" - [nodding among the group] "Yeah, that is something we’d really not miss if the immigrants left." - "Political support for bad economic policies." - "And it’s less safe to walk in the streets at night now, Rich." Ok, but apart from the raping, the welfare costs, the terrorism, the violent crime, the honor killings, the car bombings, the burqas, political support for bad economic policies and the unsafe streets, what bad has mass immigration ever done for us?

@beaniemaxi @cecilia_hsueh @TheWhiteWhaleV2 @MEXC_Official The amount of PR damage done here must be orders of magnitude larger than the $3m in question. Absolutely insane levels of stupidity needed to let this drag out for so long.

@cecilia_hsueh @TheWhiteWhaleV2 @MEXC_Official I havent followed this but have heard (and posted about) several other MEXC situations. What’s interesting is that reputable exchanges like Binance, Kraken and others seemingly never have these complaints. So I can only imagine that funds are being withheld for some bogus excuse.

MEXC Update On October 20th, I had a one-hour call with @cecilia_hsueh, who has publicly taken on the role of trying to resolve the @MEXC_Official issue. I started the call with my camera on - something that apparently surprised her. I told her I had nothing to hide. I prefer to look people in the eye. From the start, she used the classic corporate playbook. She claimed she had “undeniable proof” I broke the rules - meaning, by MEXC’s own terms, the funds should be forfeited (a polite way of saying they get to keep them). She said she was happy to show this evidence to a third party…but that doing so would require doxxing me, and she “knew I wouldn’t want that.” Then came the carrot: She said MEXC “wants to resolve it” and “sees a path to unlocking the funds.” But it quickly became clear that what they really wanted was for me to publicly admit I broke the rules - to validate their actions with my own words. I asked her to tell me more about the supposed “evidence.” She said back in April, they had records of two orders executed within the same second - which they deemed as not possible from a manual process. Wait…April? When I was still testing strategies - and losing money? Yet they didn’t freeze my account until the fall, after I made $5M in profit in 90 days? I took a breath and told her very sincerely: “I don’t know if you’re a parent. But I have two young daughters. And on all of the love I have for them I can promise you that I did not do what you're saying I did. I used no bots, no automation. Every single trade was manual.” I explained that VPN lag could easily explain two trades executing a single second on their side - doesn't mean they were sent from the same second on my side. She acknowledged the point but didn’t concede. We reached an impasse. Still, she indicated MEXC was “open” to releasing the funds - if I helped them control the narrative. It was obvious: they want me to say, “I broke the rules, but MEXC was nice enough to return the money.” I told her I’d only ever speak the truth. If the matter was resolved, I’d gladly make a public statement - but it would be based in reality, not propaganda. I can and do see how it's possible that my unique - manual - trading strategy, combined with laggy VPN internet traffic could potentially trip a risk review. I used to run a web2 empire - I know all sorts of things can trigger risk control and that sometimes innocent people get caught in the crossfire. What matters is how quickly the business resolves it. I've never had an issue with being put under review. Taking months to even tell me what I'm accused of and finding me guilty on little more than mere suspicion? That I take issue with. We did agree on one thing: their old “risk control” system - total radio silence, zero transparency, and endless review extensions - is broken. She even admitted that much. We closed on a surprisingly cordial note. She complimented my understanding of the industry and even suggested I might make a good CEO candidate for one of MEXC’s new initiatives. I laughed and told her I’d never want to be a CEO again - but I’d gladly donate my time as an unpaid advisor to help MEXC fix their broken systems and improve customer experience…if their intent to improve was real. The call ended with her promising follow-up in the next couple of days. That was a week ago Monday. It’s now over 10 days later and still no movement on this issue. Let me be clear: I never expected much. Cecilia is new to the organization - perhaps even sincere - but ultimately captured by MEXC’s internal narrative: that they are the victims, and that once they define you as “in violation,” they’re justified in keeping your funds. But here’s the part they probably didn’t mean to reveal - this public pressure has hurt them. But my voice is not for sale. Not for profit. Not for peace. Not for anyone. They’ll just have to live with that. 🫡 From the depths — The White Whale 🐋

@benowhere_ @cobie @KalshiEco @UpOnlyTV What 9 figure hell does to a man

@cobie @KalshiEco @UpOnlyTV Bro made $375M and is still trying to squeeze for more 😭

NEW KALSHI MARKET: When will the next episode of UpOnly be released?

@fluffypony @notthreadguy @mert @beaniemaxi Mert blocked me for saying sol price would go down when millions of coins were unlocked. Bro is a snowflake

@notthreadguy @mert @beaniemaxi If you bring someone on who is actually technical and able to argue in good faith without resorting to ad hominems and lies then I’d love to debate them!

who is the most vocal monero bull that wants to come on stream this week? feel like if we’re covering privacy coins all of them deserve a platform

@fluffypony @JasonYanowitz You are aiming at option 1 with tari, correct?

Transactional privacy is all that matters - we don't need weird blockchain solutions ladened with a useless token for private compute. And in that category, Monero already won, no need to ask "who wins". Under what conditions would Monero get replaced by something else? We already have currencies claiming to provide stronger privacy. They (1) have pretty much no usage, (2) can no longer make that claim now that FCMP++ is imminent (already live on testnet). We already have currencies that attempt to provide a private stablecoin. Privacy-focused users have shown a complete disinterest for that, preferring to use XMR primarily and BTC as far second over anything else. Even if some new amazing competitor appears, how do they replicate Monero or Bitcoin's "immaculate conception"? They'd need to fly under the radar and then, when sufficiently established, the founder would have to disappear. There can't be a central foundation or company. And it would take years to garner attention in the face of the existing competition (including Monero and others). I can only foresee two possible disruptors: - a fast finality stablecoin that nails the distribution and gets broader adoption for payments, but isn't really adopted by the most privacy-focused users - broad adoption by LN, along with BTC becoming more of a unit of account, leading to "good enough" privacy for users that are buying groceries, but again doesn't really touch the adoption by privacy-focused users The only thing that matters is distribution, and Monero has that in spades. Nothing else comes close, and none of the GTM strategies from heavily centralized tokens I've seen even have a remote possibility at succeeding.

Privacy clearly a big problem. But what is the solution. - privacy coins like zcash? - ZK infra like starknet, zksync, succinct, aleo, aztec? - insto/enterprise approach like canton? - encrypted computation like arcium? Someone smarter tell me who wins privacy.
