Devastated. Accidentally deleted my pinned tweet 😭 but need to keep it alive. 📌 goes on!

@GadSaad @NobelPrize For promoting your book? Lmao

Dear @NobelPrize, give Elon his deserved prize.

What right does the US Govt have to ban its citizens from visiting certain countries or dictating to them that various hotels, stores, malls, etc. are criminally banned? And what's the justification for investigating Hasan and Medea Benjamin but not Nick Shirley's Cuba trip?

🚨 THE FIRST COMPANIES TO ACTUALLY USE AI AT SCALE ARE NOT ABLE TO AFFORD IT. Big Tech created a manufactured demand bubble by giving billions to AI startups under strict contracts that force them to hand that exact cash right back to buy cloud servers. Because this money simply travels in a circle, these startups never had to face the real, staggering expense of running giant AI models. This round trip loop created a protected environment where companies could burn through infinite data because they were essentially playing with house money. But the exact moment this technology leaves the safe loop and hits a normal company with a hard budget constraint, the unit economics break completely. Real enterprise customers do not get their cash recycled back to their own balance sheets. Every token bill is a final cash outflow. This is why Uber gave AI coding tools to 5,000 engineers and exhausted its entire annual AI budget by April, with power users burning up to $2,000 a month each. The invoices are so high that even Microsoft just ordered 100,000 of its own engineers to stop using Claude Code by June because the uncapped token billing became completely untenable. Microsoft has a multi-billion dollar partnership with Anthropic, yet had to cancel internal usage because the tool costs too much to run. Nvidia's VP of applied deep learning admitted that the cost of compute for his team is now far higher than the actual salaries of his human workers. Wall Street thinks that falling chip prices will automatically fix this, but the math behind agentic AI makes that assumption impossible. Gartner confirms that even if per-token prices drop 90% by 2030, total corporate bills will keep rising because active AI agents run continuously and resend massive conversation histories, multiplying token consumption up to 30 times per task. The circular loop successfully fabricated a massive growth story to pump up a $2 trillion cloud backlog, but it hid a product that is structurally too expensive for the real economy to actually deploy. The massive gap between optimistic earnings call statements and the actual invoices landing on corporate desks is the most mispriced risk in global finance today.

@DavidSacks Eat shit

Yes

This you?

@AlmaMater07 He's been on point lately. Sound expectations abound

I told you @VivalaCoinBTC

@whaleUTXO Sure it couldn't have been misreading the market entirely? At least setting these expectations for others didn't help anyone

@VivalaCoinBTC if those businesses have no money flow in common with Cardano or crypto, then it's none of our business (apart from commenting on managerial skills, but that's just personal opinions with no supporting data). But if even 1 dollar spent there came from Cardano, well...

Piece of shit move tbh Especially when requesting millions from others while threatening their failure if they don't fund you or put their livelihoods/solvency in your hands as well

I kept my ability to think for myself & put the whole in front of any one person or their demands until we know decisions don't harm the whole without being afraid or self-interested enough to agree against my own principles instead of shallowly measuring myself against others 🤝

@Midnight_Whayle I kept my ability to think for myself & put the whole in front of any one person or their demands until we know decisions don't harm the whole without being afraid or self-interested enough to agree against my own principles instead of shallowly measuring myself against others 🤝

@VivalaCoinBTC What have you accomplished?

"Fund us right now or research fails, 10yrs wasted, everyone leaves, Cardano fails" Hmm, I'm almost more interested to see how stable IOG is without more forced funding as all other ventures close around Charles

@BasedMikeLee Shut the fuck up, traitor

When you compare Trump to Hitler You encourage assassination attempts Stop it There’s *zero* legal or moral justification for violence against him I invite all Democrats to echo this message

No one trusts you anymore & you've lost the ability to control the narrative, all you have left to do is silence critics & the masses in waves, ignoring your voters, primarying your party trying to hold you accountable for protecting pedos & commiting war crimes, & robbing the public with fraud, insider trading, illegal deals, etc. Yet you stoop this low while abusing justice departments you settle billions to yourself in your own slush funds with bc you believe the remaining base that crawls to your feet cant & wont be free enough to open their eyes bc they are slaves to propagandists & mouthpieces of a system that despises them

Federal officials have served subpoenas to Marxist political influencer Hasan Piker and CodePink cofounder Susan Medea Benjamin as part of a wider investigation into whether U.S. organizations and leaders violated U.S. laws and sanctions in supporting Cuba's communist regime, Fox News Digital has learned. foxnews.com/politics/feds-…

@StevenCheung47 It’s 9:30 PM on a Saturday night and your neck is still working hard holding up your fatass forehead

It’s 9:30 PM on a Saturday night and President Trump is still in the Oval Office working hard for the American people. He’s simply one of one.

@1Exit_Liquidity Im sorry for your loss brother ❤️

Landed in Chicago and found out my mother passed away. She had a hard life and wasnt there for me much. Really wish things were different. Rip mom.

Yea, it's something that has become more apparent to many, especially in terms of leadership failures. Ive been in the space since 2016, & I've supported cardano from a decentralization focus ideology for what I believe was important for the industry That said, if they cant deliver & want to burn the treasury & participants to the ground, theres no reason anyone should feel like they cant be critical & vocal of those failures/actions/attitudes

@VivalaCoinBTC I'm happy for you ser. Honestly feel bad for all the folks that bought into Cardanzo's mediocre solution desperately seeking a problem. I lost more than I'd like to admit thinking Cardanzo would be something. Remember the African school IDs? Super bullish

The good news is, regardless of the arm-twisting & begging, IOG literally has to deliver across the board over the span of this funding or else the next ask for the remaining 90% of the treasury has zero chance of being coerced It's put up or shut up time 🤝

Charles, when every critic becomes a villain, the pattern is not everyone else. The pattern is you. You just listed Optim, Iagon, Cardano Whale, Dave, Rick, Adam and others like this is an "inventory." It is not an inventory. It is a list of people in this ecosystem who have questioned you, disagreed with you, did something you didn't like, challenged IOG, challenged a narrative or refused to act like Cardano governance exists only to ratify what you want. And instead of reflecting on why so many serious people keep ending up on the other side of your megaphone, you reach for the same playbook every time - Dismiss the substance. - Attack the person. - Recast yourself as the victim. - Then tell everyone else to "grow up." So let's take the Iagon part of your "inventory," since you brought us into it. You say Iagon "started bullying and harassing" Midnight ambassadors. That is a convenient story, but it is not what happened. I as a dRep asked a governance question, NOT Iagon. A dRep asked whether people with roles connected to Midnight or IOG linked interests, who also held meaningful dRep voting power, should abstain on IOG related treasury proposals. That is governance. That is literally what dReps are supposed to do - ask hard questions, examine conflicts, protect treasury neutrality and represent the $ADA holders who delegated voting power to them. If a person is participating in governance with delegated $ADA while also holding a role connected to a project or organization affected by that vote, asking about conflicts is not an attack. It is accountability. And let's be very clear - ambassadors are not above scrutiny. dReps are not above scrutiny. Iagon is not above scrutiny. IOG is not above scrutiny. Midnight is not above scrutiny. You are not above scrutiny. This is supposed to be decentralized governance, not a court where certain people get protected status because they are useful to Charles Hoskinson. The moment a person participates in public governance with public voting power, the public is allowed to ask public questions. You did not answer the conflict question. You reframed it as "bullying" - ironically this is exactly what you have been doing in this ecosystem. Then you escalated it into an attack on Iagon, my leadership and the holders. You used your platform to tell the market you had "no more time" for the project unless leadership changed. You warned that Iagon could fail and destroy value for token holders. You called into question the ethics and integrity my leadership. You accused us of acting out of spite rather than engaging with the actual governance concern. And then, after the damage was done, you turned around and said people are "playing the victim." That is not leadership. That is deflection. You cannot threaten a Cardano native project, watch real holders suffer, then accuse the people objecting to the threat of being childish. You cannot say you care about token holders while dismissing "your token holders" when those holders happen to be in a project that challenged you. There are no "Iagon holders" over there and "Cardano holders" over here. $IAG holders are $ADA holders. They are stake pool operators. They are voters. They are dReps. They are builders. They are community members. They are families. They are the same ecosystem you claim to defend. When you attack a Cardano project, you are not attacking some foreign body. You are attacking people inside Cardano. That is the part you keep avoiding. You talk about ambassadors being bullied. Fine. I will say this clearly - I do not condone harassment of any ambassador, volunteer, dRep, builder, SPO or community member. Anyone who crosses into personal abuse should stop. But do not use "protecting ambassadors" as a shield to make governance questions untouchable. Do not use volunteers as human armor around treasury proposals. Do not say "decentralized governance" when the rule is really - vote,but do not question my side - ask question but not about my people - participate but only if you accept the consequences of my platform turning on you. That is not governance. That is intimidation. And since we are talking about red lines, where were those red lines when Iagon was being called a scam? Where were those red lines when IOG aligned voices and consultants were smearing Iagon publicly? Where were those red lines when defamatory claims, racial slurs and personal attacks were being thrown at builders who have spent years building on Cardano? Where was the concern for "bullying" then? The standard cannot be: When your side attacks, it is criticism. When others ask questions, it is harassment. When you escalate, it is leadership. When people respond, they are victims. When you use a 1M+ follower account, it is accountability. When a dRep asks about conflicts, it is a mob. That double standard is exactly why people are speaking up. You say people "lash out, get hit hard and then play the victim." No. People ask legitimate questions. You hit hard. Then you call their injuries proof that they were wrong to ask. That is the pattern. A dRep raises a conflict of interest concern. You call it bullying. A project CEO disagrees with IOG proposals. You call it spite. A community member challenges your narrative. You diagnose them, mock them, block them or write them off. Then, when people notice the pattern, you call them children. Charles, the lack of self-reflection here is breathtaking. At some point, when the same story keeps happening with different people, different projects, different dReps, different critics,and different cycles, maybe the common denominator is not that everyone else is irrational. Maybe the common denominator is that you treat disagreement as disloyalty. Maybe the common denominator is that you confuse criticism with attack. Maybe the common denominator is that you cannot separate Cardano from yourself. That is dangerous in a decentralized ecosystem. Because Cardano does not belong to you. It does not belong to IOG. It does not belong to Iagon. It does not belong to Midnight. It does not belong to any ambassador group, any DRep bloc, any founder, any company or any whale. It belongs to the $ADA holders and the people building, maintaining, securing, voting, delegating, questioning and participating in it. And if those people cannot ask whether conflicts exist without being threatened, mocked, financially harmed or publicly targeted, then governance is not free. You said "grow up kids." Here is the adult version: Answer the question. Should dReps with roles, incentives, payments, affiliations or obligations connected to an organization seeking treasury funds disclose those overlaps and consider abstaining? Yes or no? That was the issue. Not your ego. Not my tone. Not Iagon’s existence. Not whether Midnight ambassadors are good people. Not whether Charles feels attacked. Not whether people should be afraid to ask next time. The question was about conflict, disclosure and treasury integrity. If there is no conflict, explain why. If there is a conflict, disclose it. If abstention is not necessary, make the case. If the Constitution already provides the standard, apply it equally. But do not turn a governance question into a loyalty test. Do not demand apologies for asking what every serious governance system must be willing to ask. Do not pretend you are defending decentralization while using centralized influence to punish dissent. And do not tell people to "grow up" while threatening to burn projects down. The Cardano community should be able to disagree without fear. dReps should be able to vote NO without being branded enemies. Builders should be able to compete without being targeted. Token holders should not become collateral damage in personality conflicts. Ambassadors should be respected, yes. But they should not be used to make legitimate governance scrutiny off limits. So yes, let's take inventory. Who asked a governance question? Who answered with escalation? Who raised a possible conflict? Who turned it into a campaign against a project? Who claims to care about token holders? Who publicly attacked leadership of a project whose holders are also Cardano community members? Who says others play the victim? Who keeps casting himself as the victim whenever accountability arrives? That is the pattern people are seeing. And no amount of "grow up kids" changes it. Iagon will continue building. I will continue voting my conscience as a dRep. I will continue asking questions when treasury neutrality, conflicts of interest and governance integrity are at stake. If I am wrong, answer with facts. If you disagree, make the argument. But threats, mockery, blocks and public intimidation are not arguments. They are the behavior of someone who wants decentralized governance only until it decentralizes power away from him. Cardano deserves better than that.

@regretoni Im not a night holder & im focused on btc & others atm while cardano figures Charles' meltdown out lol

@VivalaCoinBTC The good news is there are thousands of other cryptos all you retards holding Cardano can pivot to. Even the $Night privacy scam is down only while other privacy networks moon.

@elcapitankick Im sure, which is also why you and I wouldn't be threatening to burn companies to the ground for questioning ourselves while we close our own businesses and threaten "fund us right now or fail" That is an odd line of pressure points & delivery of asks

@VivalaCoinBTC I’m familiar with your passion and I am not here for Charles as an individual myself. Just triggered by all the judgement being cast when partial information is all that is available. I’d never want to be judged that way.

@roncrypto11 @rc_1137 @UtxoSaint No one wants to make assumptions, but given the current circumstances, "benefit of the doubt" isn't going to cut it when asking for 100mil while closing everything else you own while calling everyone on chain bag holders while begging for funding "or else" x.com/i/status/20582…

@rc_1137 @VivalaCoinBTC @UtxoSaint I don’t like jumping to conclusions or making assumptions I don’t know the ins and outs of businesses and finances to understand what really happened and why

@elcapitankick And in my focus, I am here for Cardano & the community across a decade that contributes to & ideates the chain, not Charles as an individual

@VivalaCoinBTC That makes perfect sense.

This is outrageous. A small town in Michigan did everything right to stop OpenAI & Oracle from building a $16 billion data center in their town. The people of Saline Township flooded their council meeting, put up signs all over town, and convinced their officials to reject it. The officials voted against the data center 4-1, and that should have been the end. But two days later the developers sued, and the town couldn’t afford to fight back in court. We are not a free nation when billion-dollar corporations can take over the land of our communities and towns. We are a captive nation ruled by corporations and billionaires.
