Seems the trump token event is completely hidden, no real live leaderboard of rankings of top 297. Just buy and hope? Anyone know where to check the ranking s?

Getting married and having children is the hardest thing most men will ever do. Having children forces you to restructure your life because you now have the responsibility to protect, provide for, and guide another human and you would be a piece of garbage if didn't. Marriage with children forces you to work as a team with someone who will likely disagree with you at least 50% of the time, and somehow work through that while sleep deprived, cranky, and figuring out how to keep a brand-new person alive. If a man does even the bare minimum to be a decent dad and husband, it'll most likely be the hardest thing he ever does. But it pays dividends in character growth, nobility, virtue, patience, etc. Again, it's not easy. I've been to urgent care twice this week because of flus and ear infections. I've missed meetings the past two weeks because of surprise Christmas concerts and dance recitals. I cleaned a puke an hour ago. So, when dads seem weathered, trustworthy, good-humored, and noble than childless men, it's because they've killed their previous self in order to rebuild into a person who can survive all of their new responsibilities. You have to remember men are not admired for lavish lifestyles, how traveled they are, or their fashion. Men are admired for the nobility of their character. Their trustworthiness. Their work ethic. Their reliability. Etc. And I'm certainly no saint, but I've improved in every meaningful way with each subsequent child, and Lord knows it's only because I couldn't survive as a decent father or passable husband had I not. Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward.  Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth.  Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.

Not having kids is a life hack. I spend my summers in Europe, take cross-country road trips, and disappear off-grid on weekends. The money I’d spend on kids goes to investing, experiences, and freedom. Different priorities. Different definition of rich.

@0itsali0 @Cypher_HQ_ is my go-to for everyday use (food, shopping, bills, etc..). The team is responsive, quick to resolve issues and in it for the long haul. Also, they're backed by YC Way easier to enjoy my crypto gains. The incentive/ cashback is really just the cherry on top.

Guys…I have a girlfriend. Now I know what you’re thinking…how is it possible that anyone would want to be with me? I understand where you’re coming from. I think the answer is: her puzzle piece fits mine. In my early twenties, I read the biography of the American founding father John Adams. He and his wife Abigail had one of the great partnerships in American history; intellectually matched, emotionally intertwined, and co-architects of something bigger than themselves. I wanted what they had. But it wasn’t within reach. Years before, I’d married in a sort of arranged Mormon marriage. Unsure how else to explain it. We were functional, but we weren’t John and Abigail. We split after thirteen years. At age 34, after selling Braintree Venmo, and emerging from a mismatched marriage and the repression of Mormonism, I set out to rebuild myself and find partnership.  I met a woman in LA who became my first-ever girlfriend. Coming from a sheltered background, I was blind to the obvious warnings. I was dangerously naive. That relationship unraveled and was followed by litigation. The experience was unnerving and left me wondering if I could ever trust again. By the time I was 44, I started reconciling with the possibility of a life without partnership. @_katetolo and I met at my brain interface company Kernel. She’d discovered my work using neurotechnology to improve human well-being and merge human and AI. Even though she’d been dreaming of a career in fashion, she was drawn to what she foresaw as the defining question of our time: how will humans successfully co-evolve with AI. We shared the same obsession. The puzzle piece fit was immediate, as immediate as either of us had ever experienced. Yet we maintained our professional boundaries. When we worked on our first project together, the back and forth was effortless. She could conceptualize and feel what I couldn’t and vice versa. It helped that both Kate and I had a natural disposition towards hard work. Our joy came from creation. Kate was luminescent. When I saw her about the office, butterflies fluttered in my stomach.  Each day she’d show up wearing some unexpected combination of colors, textures, styles and accessories. Always tasteful, playful and interesting. She didn’t chase fancy brands. Most of her clothing was from the thrift store. It wasn’t how she looked but how her mind worked: original, eccentric, entirely her own. She was art. We both worked very hard and valued every second of the day.  One evening around 6:30 pm she dropped by my office and we talked for hours. It had been all business before.  This was the first time we stepped into each other’s personal lives. My heart strings pulled but my brain pushed back. ‘We know we can’t trust again’, my mind firmly stated. Our after-hours meet-ups in my office became a daily ritual. The favorite part of my day. We’d reminisce about work and tiptoe a bit deeper each time into each other’s personal lives. I’d recently started my new anti-aging project and one night Kate suggested to me that I should put the entire thing online to allow others to follow on. We worked together to put up a website and got a v1 out. We pondered what to call it, and decided on ‘Project Blueprint’. We were oddly from entirely different worlds but somehow the same person. Yet neither of us dared take the next step. We didn’t want to imperil our work relationship and we remained deeply skeptical of each other.  The combination of Kate being raised to distrust all things and me still feeling the sting of the previous relationship left us stirring in a pot of anticipatory disaster. Before long, whether we liked it or not, we’d become each other's favorite person. We’d spend every moment we could together. Social events and the weekends were still off-limits as our relationship was professional. We were both secretly wondering, ‘does the other person feel what I’m feeling?’ Unable to withstand any longer, after a year and a half of unspoken affection, one night I softly floated the balloon of inquiry. She confirmed it was reciprocal. Still, with things being so new, neither of us wanted to make our relationship public. We needed time to stabilize, mature and assess whether this was short or long term. I’m a 48 year old American, raised Mormon, with three children. She’s a 30 year old Bosnian-Australian-American. It took time to bridge our worlds. In our years of knowing each other, three of them have been navigating a relationship. All while building a business and movement. There have been many times where we didn’t know if we’d make it. In the last year, we’ve found our flow.  I trust Kate as much as my mother. She knows how to scaffold trust. She anticipates your anticipation and knows your reaction before you react. She’s meticulous in the integrity of our relationship. She’s even been pivotal in helping my father and me reconcile and navigate the contours of our relationship. In the past few years, Blueprint and Don’t Die have become global phenomena. Kate is the unsung hero.  She and I have been stride on stride since inception. She’s proven an exceptional executor and despite her unconventional background, intuitively knows things. Her creativity keeps me forever guessing what she’ll say or come up with next. Our minds have become so intertwined that life feels naked without her. Her story warrants being told as others will be better off emulating her practices and abilities. What I find most impressive about Kate is her prescience and thoughtfulness. She sees forwards, backwards, and side to side. Relative to her, I feel myopic in my awareness of the world. She can see through others, as an x-ray would. She then structures all that information and can package it in simple, understandable terms. In ways that allow for everyone to win. Kate is soft spoken, self-deprecating and understated. These attributes cloak her ferocious ambition, piercing intellect, and delightful creativity. Give her five minutes and she will reframe your world. But most people don’t know to look. They assume she’s my assistant. It’s such a loss because people are looking for what she has to offer. My son Talmage, Kate, and I are family. Nothing makes us happier than being together. Our conversations are fast, dark, and rowdy. Family feeds the soul, and we are nourished. As my son considers possible partners, he wisely models them off of Kate. Deep companionship is a universal human want.  And while there are eight billion of us on this planet, most struggle to achieve it, including those in relationships. It’s the most fulfilling of human experiences and also the most elusive. The joy of being seen, appreciated and loved, and offering the same to another. I wrote dozens of different sentences trying to capture what the want and struggle for deep companionship feels like. I deleted them all as none could holistically capture the emotional architecture of it. Then one day while exercising, I realized what it feels like: what the explorer Ernest Shackleton and his crew must have felt returning to land after being shipwrecked and surviving 497 days adrift in brutal Antarctic. It’s a bit of a dramatic comparison, however, I suspect many of you can relate. Kate feels like land to me after being adrift and searching for 25 years. Life sinks or sails based upon the quality of our most intimate relationships. No amount of professional success can plug the sinking hole of an acrimonious personal relationship. At this point, Kate and I have nearly become one person. We have entire conversations with a single look, sound, gesture or image. We independently come up with the same ideas and insights, suggesting to me that maybe it’s our tandem effort generating them. Our relationship is stable, positive, and calm. I’ve wanted this my entire life and impatiently waited 25 years for it to arrive. It’s better than anything I imagined. Lucky me, I found my Abigail Adams.

Spent the entire bull run thinking BlackRock/IBIT inflows = institutions going long Bitcoin, short dollar, finally seeing the light. I was dead wrong. The top holders of IBIT aren’t bullish on BTC at all. They’re doing the textbook basis trade: • Long the ETF (drives the “institutional buying” narrative) • Short identical size in CME futures • Harvest 8-15% annualized while being completely delta neutral They’re not allocating to Bitcoin. They’re renting our volatility for yield. We’re the NPCs in their spreadsheet. Juicy basis = fake inflows → retail FOMOs Basis dies = fake outflows → retail panic sells, gives them perfect exit liquidity All while they stay flat and collect. Real price discovery still comes down to actual global liquidity, not ETF flow headlines. Mind blown as a retailer, lesson in there...

Institutions aren’t “coming” for Bitcoin the way we thought. The giant ETF flows we cheer for aren’t macro bets against the dollar. They’re hedge funds and prop desks running the oldest arb in the book: Buy spot ETF → short CME future → lock in the basis → stay delta zero → repeat. When the spread pays more than Fed Funds, they pile in → “institutional demand!!” When it doesn’t, they pile out → “they’re selling!!” Both times they never took directional risk for a single second. We’re emotional traders fighting a vending machine that dispenses 10% risk-free. The real driver for btc is still global liquidity, always has been.
