The Zcash resurrection has been underway for a few years. People are finally discovering it today. Follow the early movers. x.com/i/lists/197393…

@realpeteyb123 Many such cases

Think the time has come for me to walk away from MAGA and the Republican Party. I’ll share more soon. I’m done.

@teo_kai_xiang Karen's Kingdom

Life in Singapore is just navigating an endless series of little authoritarians, who have found that tiny sphere they can claim as a private fiefdom and make life hell for anyone who crosses into their territory because it's what makes them feel big.

@LefterisJP It’s almost as if nothing valuable has been created

"Just get investors" Thats what crypto users say when you try to charge for software they use daily. Meanwhile, last 2 months: companies shutting down, teams slashed, products killed. "They just didn't find PMF" When no one in an entire industry is willing to pay for software it's not the products failing individually. We have a broken culture. A culture eating its own builders alive.

@lindsey_haswell @tempo I don’t get it. It says wallet but there’s nowhere to download a wallet. How can I use it?

Several non-crypto friends have asked me what we launched today at @tempo. It's easy to feel intimidated by the jargon and technical concepts and think it's not for you, esp if you're not in the crypto/AI industries. My answer: just go to wallet.tempo.xyz and try it. If you wonder what payments look like in an AI world, this is it.

Inspiring feat of strength and motor skills!

@PietroVentani Good call

@_TomHoward The Age of Geopolitical Dominance... precisely...

“Many capital allocators will instead be allocating towards useful basic things like food and energy.” I suspect the age of abundant risk on capital is over. The war economy has begun.

@parmita Ok the union will direct proposition a wealth tax on all royalty of 100%

@_TomHoward No voting in the queen

I honestly think that the world would be a rapidly better place if they made me the queen of California. Ask me anything below. I will answer in full detail what my rules would be

@EulerLagrange @lex_node @HesterPeirce @SECPaulSAtkins What happens when you cross 2000 holders of record?

But you don’t actually need new rules. Section 36 already gives the Commission the authority to grant exemptive relief for novel market structures. Someone has to be crazy enough to design a system that satisfies investor protections and argue it fails both prongs of 3b-16 of the 34 act.

This document codifies what the consensus among lawyers has already been for years. Good to write it down, but nothing new here. Where are the EXEMPTIONS we were promised and so desperately need? Current rules HANDCUFF USA capital formation! cc @HesterPeirce @SECPaulSAtkins

@parmita @HostOfMeta So less French Canadians then

@HostOfMeta No, not specifically French Canadians Yes, better immigration in general You’re not cargo you aren’t just imported. idc where ur from. U immigrate faster and on merit

I once heard a pitch for a marketplace serving new mothers in South East Asia. They were really excited about the potential of this huge and underserved market. The founders were 20 something French boys with no experience in SE Asia. Why do the French do this.

@mint0themax Why won’t you join my creepy club

can you just leave us alone thanks

This is precisely the way I envision China gaining control of Taiwan. They always strike deals, not missiles.

@dawninthewild @zkDragon * Zcash miners!

“Replace all US electric water heaters (~huge TWh of demand) with BTC miners → ultimate decentralized mining: waste heat becomes network security. Crack the GTM for tapping household heating worldwide, and the game’s over. 🚀” @zkDragon sharing about encrypted money at a planetary scale @ns

@EulerLagrange @lex_node @HesterPeirce @SECPaulSAtkins But I’m also growing weary of their assurances that rules will be changed “soon”. It’s been a lot of empty promises over the years.

@EulerLagrange @lex_node @HesterPeirce @SECPaulSAtkins I’m certainly not saying they won’t change the rules. I’m saying they *must* change the rules.

@jnconkle Depends on the refinery. They’ll be cranking up local crude.

short asian airlines and refineries.

@EulerLagrange @lex_node @HesterPeirce @SECPaulSAtkins You could start with Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Probably should read the whole act to understand how intermediaries are built into the US securities framework.

I said without intermediaries dawg What rule forces it? My understanding is it doesn’t explicitly require it, it’s just in the only way we know how to satisfy the investor protections + kyc you end up with something that acts like a broker/exchange.

@TheBTCTherapist You are worried that this appears pathetic. Well let me assure you, this is definitely pathetic.

This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to write. I’m completely devastated. Last Friday, I️ was notified that my monetization had been paused. I’ve shown up on this app for 5 years straight every single day to grow my account to what it is now. I️ never once paid for ads, never bought followers, never did anything but grow in an organic way. After appealing once, I️ was told my account was removed due to spam and inauthentic content. This couldn’t be further from the truth. I️ spend 6-12 hours on X daily in addition to my full time job; creating content, interacting and posting. I’ve adapted to new algorithms, posting strategies and even started a newsletter. I️’ve stopped using any other online platforms as I️ truly value the freedom and community X has brought me. Every single holiday, family event, vacation, wedding, birthday, you name it, I’ve been active on X during it. I’ve never once taken for granted the audience I’ve grown on this app and have thoroughly enjoyed the relationships I’ve built because of it. During this last period in which I️ was removed, I️ proposed to my girlfriend of 7 years. During this proposal trip, I️ stayed active online the entire time, which is nothing new. I have given up years of time to create something bigger with no regret. But now, after being denied and repeatedly called a spam account, with no way to plead my case, my last resort is to post here. Having to do this publicly feels so pathetic. It’s been almost a week and 2 appeals later, and I️ can’t get in touch with anyone who’s willing to help. I haven’t been given any clarification of where I️ went wrong or if there is a pathway to resolution. How can I️ dedicate myself so profoundly to something for so many years without being given any chance to make a simple change in my form of content? I’ve never had my account flagged or even been told of any misconduct in a 5 year period. The first I️ hear of an issue is ironically on pay day after spending hours upon hours working online during my vacation. I️ don’t expect everyone to be able to understand the severity of this situation because they will never see the time, sacrifices and work put into growing an account from 0 followers to over 260k. I️ can’t begin to explain the things I’ve sacrificed to get to the point of being a creator and I️ can’t help but feel like the platform has failed me. To you, this may just be a lighthearted meme account you follow. To me, this has altered my life. I️ was committing to go full time on X and even put in notice at my full time job. It is every content creators dream to be able to take this on full time, and to have it taken away from you almost as soon as you got it, feels gut wrenching. Over the last 2 years I’ve told everyone how important it is to get a blue checkmark, pay for premium and begin to monetize their account. I️ couldn’t have been louder about how much I️ love this platform and truly felt it was the only platform worth being on. The freedom I️ was given was amazing up until now. I️ truly never thought something like this would happen. All of this to say, I️ am not a spam account and I️ deserve reconciliation. I️f there is a specific thing I’ve done wrong, I️ will adapt my content to no longer do so. But a permanent suspension with a false reasoning will never be okay with me. I️ would hope that you are also not okay with taking away the livelihood of the creators on a platform that prides itself on free speech. @XCreators @premium @x @elonmusk @nikitabier

@AJA_Cortes Hey bro I think we are going to need some nitrogen soon
