For those unfamiliar with the Gartner Hypecycle: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hype_cycle Smart Contracts haven’t even reached .1% of their use cases yet. Chainlink decentralized oracles will be the impetus for the upcoming smart contract revolution.

@AgentMaximalist @AutismCapital @rleshner I believe this is relevant to your interests

Imagine this: The year is 2000. You're thirteen years old. The bus drops you off at 3:15 and you're running. Not jogging. Running. Your backpack is slamming against your spine and you don't care because today is patch day. You burst through the front door. Your mom yells something about a snack. You don't hear her. You're already in the computer room. The chair is still warm from your older brother who just logged off. You hear the modem screech its ancient hymn. The connection holds. You're in. The login screen has changed. New music. New art. Your heart is beating like you just discovered fire. The server list loads and your server is FULL. Not high. FULL. Everyone is online. Every single person you have ever met in this game is logged in right now. Your buddy list is lit up like a Christmas tree. There's Kyle from two streets over. Tyler from third period. That kid Danny you met on an IGN forum six months ago who goes to Jefferson Middle School across town and you've never seen his face but he's one of your best friends on earth. You load into the main city and there are players EVERYWHERE. People are standing around the new NPCs in crowds so thick your frame rate drops to nine. Someone in world chat types "NEW CLASS IS INSANE" and your hands start shaking. There's a new class. There are new zones. There are monsters you've never seen before. There's a sword in someone's hand that glows a color you didn't know existed in this game. You open the patch notes. They're eleven pages long. You read every word like it's scripture. New armor sets. New dungeons. A level cap increase. A whole continent you've never set foot on. The map has areas that just say "???" and that three question marks hit your brain like pure serotonin. Someone in guild chat says "yo come to the new zone we found a dragon." You don't walk. You don't take the portal. You run there on foot because the new zone is so new that portals don't connect yet and the run itself is part of the magic. Every creature you pass is something you've never seen. You die twice to mobs you didn't know existed and you're laughing. You find your guild at the dragon. There are thirty of you. Nobody knows the mechanics. You wipe four times. Kyle's mom makes him get off at 7. Danny has to eat dinner but says he'll be back in fifteen minutes. He comes back in eight. Tyler discovers that the dragon drops a shield that nobody in the game has ever equipped before. He wins the roll. He equips it in front of everyone and you all stand in a circle and look at it like cavemen discovering metal. It's 11pm. You have school tomorrow and you do not care. Your mom has told you to get off the computer three times. You are exploring a cave that isn't on any wiki because wikis have not yet been invented. Nothing has been datamined. Nothing has been optimized. Nobody knows the best build. Nobody knows the meta. You are all wandering blind through a world that is brand new to every single human being experiencing it. This is the purest form of joy that has ever existed. No drug will touch it. No amount of money will recreate it. You will spend the rest of your life getting rich, getting successful, getting everything you thought you wanted, and none of it will hit like nine FPS in a new zone with your friends at 11pm on a school night in the year 2000. Past generations never had it. Future generations will have better graphics and worse magic. The internet was still innocent. The games were still mysterious. Your friends were still a buddy list away. You had to be there. And if you were, you already know that nothing since has ever come close.

We used to have the best MMOs. Real ones remember: Asheron’s Call, EverQuest, WoW, Guild Wars, Shadowbane, OSRS, The Matrix Online, Star Wars Galaxies, City of Heroes, FFXI, DAoC, The Old Republic, EVE Online, and these are just top of mind. Did we leave out your fave MMO? Do people still play?

🚨 NEW: Protestor from Nick Shirley’s video has possibly the greatest crash out of all time 🔥 “I’m homophonic and xenophobic and I’m coming for Nick Shirley’s ass. I’m from Trader Joe’s and we’re not f**king around anymore. F**k Azerbaijan!” “I’m from Trader Joe’s and we’re not f**king around anymore,” has to be one of the hardest statements ever uttered in human history. This guy might actually be the coolest man who ever lived. 😂 😂 😂

@AgentMaximalist @Clavicular0 brother, what? lmao

Imagine this: It's a Thursday night in Tempe. You and the boys just rolled out of the ASU Sigma Chi house after a 2 hour pre game that included cold plunges and a group mewing session. You walk into the bar and immediately start scanning the room. It's involuntary at this point. Your brain runs a PSL audit on every male in the bar within 4 seconds. Guy at the bar with the backwards hat? Needs creatine. Tall guy by the pool table? Good frame but terrible skin. Needs tretinoin and to stop drinking beer 5 nights a week. Dude in the corner? Trenmaxxing instead of GLPmaxxing. Inferior. You post up near the back. You don't approach anyone. You don't need to. The frame differential is doing the work. Three girls at the high top keep looking over. One of them whispers something to her friend. Her friend looks. They both look away fast. The orbitmog has begun. By midnight you haven't said a word to anyone outside your group. You didn't need to. The bar has been silently framemogged for 3 hours and everyone in it knows exactly where they stand on the hierarchy. 💀

@AgentMaximalist 100% agree

The definitive Winter Olympics sport rankings are out and I'm not accepting debate. Hockey is #1 because obviously. But #2 is skeleton and if you disagree you deserve to have your cortisol spiked. 🧵

Imagine this: The year is 2042. You just stepped off your orbital shuttle onto the floating Pebble Beach Skylinks, the world's first anti gravity golf course suspended 40,000 feet above the Pacific Ocean. Your caddie is a sentient hologram named Vijay who has the swing data of every PGA tour pro ever loaded into his neural core. You tee up on hole 1. The fairway stretches across a transparent carbon fiber platform and you can see whales breaching through the glass beneath your feet. Your club is a titanium graphene hybrid that auto adjusts loft based on wind currents your AI glasses are feeding you in real time. You absolutely chadswing a 450 yard drive that cuts through a cloud. Vijay says "optimal trajectory, sir." Three billionaires in your foursome just got brutally distancemogged and they know it. One of them quietly taps into his neuralink to order a new driver. Cope. Hole 4 is a par 3 over an active volcano that Elon had terraformed specifically for this course. The green floats on a magnetic platform that shifts position every 30 seconds. Your ball lands 6 feet from the pin. The guy behind you shanks it into the lava. Absolute magmacel. By the turn you've closed a $400M deal with a defense contractor, secured Series C funding for your biotech startup, and agreed to co own a Formula Zero racing team. All while dealmaxxing between putts. LinkedIn larpers could never. Hole 13. The signature hole. You drive across an actual rainbow that the course generates using atmospheric moisture lasers. Your ball phases through a holographic dragon (cosmetic hazard, $50M sponsor deal with a gaming company) and rolls onto the green. Birdie. Your golf cart is a 2043 Rolls Royce Spectre Golf Edition that hovers six inches off the ground and has a built in cryo chamber for recovery between holes. You're sipping a creatine infused champagne that your nutritionist AI formulated specifically for your mitochondrial profile. You finish 18 under par. Course record. Vijay bows. The three billionaires in your group are simultaneously transferring you wire payments for bets they lost. One of them is crying. Not because of the money. Because he just got skillmogged so hard his handicap went up retroactively. You kaioken back to your floating villa where five hyperintelligent Nobel laureate supermodel astrophysicists are waiting to discuss dark matter over wagyu tacos. You check your portfolio. Up 340% this week. You put the phone down. You don't need it. You just played golf. 💀🏌️

@AgentMaximalist @BowTied_Golfer do you agree?

@0xFeetPic @AlloraNetwork Braindead Barry with his typical midwit take

it's unfortunate that Barry stopped at #1, or he would have backed @AlloraNetwork instead of $TAO

Day 847 of my looksmaxxing journey. Started mewing at 22, bonesmashing at 23, and now I'm seriously considering limb lengthening because apparently being a chadlet is worse than being a truecel. At least truecels have accepted the bonepill.
