A prayer for the tech bro who believes he can buy a small olive farm in Southern Italy.
Imagining beautiful women and perfect weather, he pays too much for a lawyer who barely speaks English, then gets an unexpected visit from a fat, well-dressed man named Giacomo.

The Ledger continues.
He has his list. It might just be Etherscan addresses, but to them it means life or death.
When the first crypto scammer disappeared, people were more intrigued than scared.
But when the fifth one went missing, almost everyone was excited for the future of finance again.

If you want to know what’s wrong with crypto, look for the value extractors.
You’ll know them because they dress like nerds. Not stained and greasy, but nerds who got too rich too fast and think their only option is to look like supervillains.
They’ll try to dress themselves up because it’s always been about them and never the product. Never about improving, only enriching. They’ll pose for cameras, looking like idiots, then blame someone else for taking the picture.
As long as you have Jean Paul Gosselaar couture, you can say whatever you want about “Rebuilding the World” because it doesn’t matter. You already took the money.

what a delightful, well-timed photoshoot in all seriousness: - i’ve lost count of how many times i’ve heard “opensea is done.” we’re still here. - if you start a business you can and should make money from it. but if you actually know our team, you know that our focus has always, from the start, been building products that people love. that will continue to be the case - my wife got into bitcoin in 2011 (years before nfts were a thing), has always paid for everything herself and started multiple non-profits while advising me. she’s never used the term “product mommy”, but she’s the most brilliant person i know and has built me into the person i am today. marry someone who builds with you, learns alongside you, and who is deeply dedicated to your growth no matter the ups and downs - our industry is still small and misunderstood. for crypto to scale it's eventually going to feel invisible and permeate all of culture. that's a big part of opensea's vision. we saw an opportunity (not without risk) to share it with VF but what that article became wildly misrepresented our industry and our own story. that's a bummer, but we'll have more shots at this - it's not the critic who counts. to create anything of significance in the world takes time, pain, mistakes, courage, the willingness to be both deeply misunderstood and disliked, and glass-chewing. luckily the glass-chewing make you stronger. onwards

When the shit hits the fan, food shortages and flight delays,
it’s up to one overgrown Dane named Lars, who had dreams of being a rugby-playing farmer,
trained by a private security firm on protecting hated individuals in large crowds,
wondering if the little nerd and his NYC NPC wife are worth it.

Netflix calling some of the ugliest, dumbest narcissists “the Gen Z Bonnie & Clyde” is strange,
Until you realize it’s made by Graham Moore, an overgrown nepo baby twink whose Mom was Chief of Staff for Michelle Obama

Hudson Williams, Jennifer Grey, Terry Chen, Elizabeth Adams, Hannah Galway, and William Mapother join the cast of THE ALTRUISTS. The series tells the story of Sam Bankman-Fried (Anthony Boyle) and Caroline Ellison (Julia Garner), two hyper-smart, ambitious young idealists who tried to remake the global financial system in the blink of an eye...before they were accused of stealing $8 billion.

You underestimate how much the average Vegas person has to put up with Mormons moralizing about gambling while profiting off it.

There’s still a romantic thrill in seeing a print magazine cover in the wild that calls you a degenerate.
