“i didn’t sell, i merely increased my USD reserves”

@dom_kwok @Wharton @blackstone @GoldmanSachs Love it... 👌

market cap does not apply to crypto. in fact, i'd go as far as to say it's completely irrelevant. i spent my undergrad @wharton studying valuation and later on wall street at @blackstone and @goldmansachs. i've valued hundreds of assets across every major industry. understandably, many of you have asked for my thoughts on why "market cap" does not matter. so here's why: 1. stock vs crypto market caps (an apples to oranges comparison). the most common mistake people make is comparing the market cap of a stock to that of a token. many people claim that X token can't reach Y market cap because it would be worth more than Apple or Nvidia - quelle horreur! to understand why this is incorrect, it's important to note how market cap is measured differently for stocks vs crypto. stock market cap = share price x no. shares outstanding crypto market cap = token price x circulating supply as you can see, you're measuring two entirely different things: - stocks generate revenue, cash flow and represent ownership in an underlying company. a stock price is (typically) derived by discounting the company's future cash flows to find a present value. - crypto (much like commodities) is valued by its utility, supply / demand, and how much it's being used on a particular blockchain network. utility tokens are not designed to be bought and held. they're designed to be used to pay gas fees for conducting transactions on a blockchain network. therefore, comparing stock and crypto market caps inevitably yields non-sensical results. it's like arguing whether lionel messi or michael jordan are better athletes. it's also why comparing the market cap of bitcoin to that of a company (ie walmart) makes no sense; bitcoin generates no revenue and has no physical value, yet its market cap greater than walmart's. 2. crypto market cap reflects the total monetary value of a digital network (ie blockchain). unlike a company, tokens can't be valued by discounting future cash flows (most do not generate meaningful revenues). instead, their value (much like gold) comes from the market deciding what they're worth and their usage. so as demand increases, price increases (often regardless of traditional fundamentals like revenue, EBITDA etc). 3. fixed supply vs non-fixed supply fundamentals aside, crypto market dynamics (which more closely resemble those of commodity markets vs stocks) also make "market cap" is a misleading metric. given the absence of strict fundamentals, price is largely determined by supply and demand. most importantly, but not limited to, two main reasons: - crypto (much like commodities) has a (mostly) fixed supply. this means that following any sudden increase in demand, price will increase suddenly due to the fixed supply (also known as a supply shock). - stocks, on the other hand, have a non-fixed supply. big run-ups in price are typically met with "secondary offerings", whereby companies issue more stock at the higher price to capitalise on the increased demand and raise money at better terms. this is an important but subtle difference that means crypto market caps can balloon far beyond what would be considered realistic. anyone remember tulipmania, where one tulip became worth as much as a mansion in amsterdam? 4. market cap multiplier perhaps the most nuanced point of all, and contrary to popular belief, reaching a market cap of $1 trillion does not actually require people to invest $1 trillion. in reality, the amount of fiat invested into the token is only a fraction of its market cap. thanks to the multiplier effect, $1 of new capital invested could increase the market cap of the token by multiples of that number. so while it might sound smart to bring up "market cap", it's a misnomer when it comes to crypto (or pretty much any new technology - see $SPCX and other AI companies!).

@patrickjwitt Keep pushing, Almost there.. 🙏

Critical week for Clarity, which also happens to be the one-year anniversary of GENIUS. A reminder of the incredible amount of hard work that has gone into this bill, but also of the time we’ve already lost. We cannot afford to delay any longer.

@SenLummis Let's get it done. Good luck.. 🙏

The Clarity Act is the closest Congress has ever come to real digital asset market structure. Momentum like this will not come around again this decade.

@dom_kwok Oh yeah!!!

we are so close to being back. don’t give up!

@el_crypto_prof Send it... 🚀🚀

#Altcoins 2016/2017 vs. 2020/2021 vs. 2026/2027 It's almost time, folks.

@barkmeta Oh yeah...

99% of people quit Crypto. Even the media gave up covering it. That silence means it’s about to reverse. Everyone still holding is about to literally retire their bloodline.

🧵Why are Velo and Lightnet quietly building in Indonesia? The answer starts with shrimp 🦐 Here’s why, most people still see @veloprotocol as just another crypto project But the bigger story isn’t crypto. It’s financial infrastructure. For years, @lightnetgroup has quietly built licensed payment rails across ASEAN Velo provides the blockchain settlement layer, enabling faster, cheaper and compliant cross-border payments behind the scenes. Now look at Indonesia. Orbit Plus has launched its first fiat off-ramp beta, allowing users to convert digital assets into Indonesian Rupiah and settle directly to local bank accounts. Indonesia is one of ASEAN’s busiest remittance corridors For PayFi, this isn’t just another market. It’s one of the most important proving grounds. Indonesia is also strengthening its regulatory framework. Moving crypto oversight to the OJK reflects the country’s push to integrate digital assets into its financial system. That trend is becoming increasingly visible BTSE recently launched BTSE Indonesia through a regulated joint venture, expanding licensed IDR fiat rails. This isn’t about BTSE partnering with Velo. It’s about Indonesia rapidly becoming a hub for regulated digital financial infrastructure. But the story doesn’t stop with regulation. It also reaches into banking. Lightnet has built strategic relationships across Southeast Asia’s financial ecosystem, including its partnership with WeLab. WeLab entered Indonesia in 2018 through a joint venture with Astra Financial, acquired Bank Jasa Jakarta in 2022 and transformed it into Bank Saqu in 2023. Bank Saqu is now one of Indonesia’s fastest-growing digital banks. It shows how digital banking and next-generation payment infrastructure are converging across ASEAN. Another key piece is remittances. Velo Labs partnered with Inception to modernize cross-border payment corridors across Southeast Asia. Indonesia sits at the center of one of the region’s busiest remittance networks. For millions of migrant workers, faster settlement means lower costs and quicker access to money. Then there’s the enterprise layer. The CP Group, one of Southeast Asia’s largest conglomerates, has operated across Indonesia for decades. Its businesses span agriculture, food production, logistics and aquaculture. Yes… even shrimp. 🦐 That may sound amusing. But this is exactly where blockchain becomes real economic infrastructure. These industries move enormous value across borders every day. To be clear, there is no public evidence that CP Indonesia currently settles its operations through Lightnet or the Velo Protocol. However, Chatchaval Jiaravanon, co-founder of Lightnet, comes from the family behind @CPGroup_Live. That doesn’t prove adoption. But it illustrates the scale Lightnet was designed to support. Now add Orbit Plus, bringing together consumer wallets, fiat off-ramps, merchant payments and planned virtual debit cards. This is far more than another wallet launch. It looks like another layer of ASEAN’s emerging PayFi stack. Licensed payments. Digital banking. Blockchain settlement. Stablecoins. Fiat rails. Enterprise payments. All moving in the same direction. The question isn’t whether someone pays with Bitcoin. It’s whether blockchain settlement becomes invisible. Customers pay digitally. Merchants receive local fiat. Banks remain part of the system. The blockchain simply becomes infrastructure. Indonesia may be the first major domino. Because when regulated financial infrastructure, banking networks, enterprise ecosystems, remittance corridors and consumer payment applications begin converging in the same market… it’s worth paying attention. This isn’t just Velo. It’s Southeast Asia quietly building the next generation of financial infrastructure. And sometimes… the future of finance doesn’t begin on Wall Street. Sometimes it starts with migrant workers, digital banks, food supply chains… and Shrimps 🦐

. LIST OF COINS FOR 2027 BULLRUN 🐂 Today I’ve spent hours exploring the new tokens I’ll be buying for the next bullrun 🐂, that should start early 2027 This cycle was a disaster, because we didn’t have an altseason, but next year we should be all set for great gains! In my list I already have 9 tokens! 12 max is all I’ll need! Who’s keen to see this list when it’s ready? 👀 .

Get it done. 🇺🇸

The Clarity Act is not a concession. It's a commitment.

ai will accelerate adoption of the xrp ledger. @Ripple knows it. @bgarlinghouse knows it. we know it. i strongly believe that ai agents are one of the keys to unlocking this ecosystem and sending it to the next level. bullish ai and crypto.
