Twats of Twitch 💭

Since @Twitch is platforming this guy... "Curry Cannons" is @TheStockGuyTV's Indian wife's contact name. Wife: I'm sick so pushing through TSG: Like I was pushing through you last night To chat: "She got D'ed down pretty good last night so she's been real nice this morning."

This is an email I sent earlier today to all employees at Coinbase: Team, Today I’ve made the difficult decision to reduce the size of Coinbase by ~14%. I want to walk you through why we're doing this now, what it means for those affected, and how this positions us for the future. Why now Two forces are converging at the same time. We need to be front footed to respond to both. First, the market. Coinbase is well-capitalized, has diversified revenue streams, and is well-positioned to weather any storm. Crypto is also on the verge of the next wave of adoption, with stablecoins, prediction markets, tokenization, and more taking off. However, our business is still volatile from quarter to quarter. While we've managed through that cyclicality many times before and come out stronger on the other side, we’re currently in a down market and need to adjust our cost structure now so that we emerge from this period leaner, faster, and more efficient for our next phase of growth. Second, AI is changing how we work. Over the past year, I’ve watched engineers use AI to ship in days what used to take a team weeks. Non-technical teams are now shipping production code and many of our workflows are being automated. The pace of what's possible with a small, focused team has changed dramatically, and it's accelerating every day. All of this has led us to an inflection point, not just for Coinbase, but for every company. The biggest risk now is not taking action. We are adjusting early and deliberately to rebuild Coinbase to be lean, fast, and AI-native. We need to return to the speed and focus of our startup founding, with AI at our core. What this means To get there, we are not just reducing headcount and cutting costs, we’re fundamentally changing how we operate: rebuilding Coinbase as an intelligence, with humans around the edge aligning it. What does this mean in practice? - Fewer layers, faster decisions: We are flattening our org structure to 5 layers max below CEO/COO. Layers slow things down and create coordination tax. The future is small, high context teams that can move quickly. Leaders will own much more, with as many as 15+ direct reports. Fewer layers also means a leaner cost structure that is built to perform through all market cycles. - No pure managers: Every leader at Coinbase must also be a strong and active individual contributor. Managers should be like player-coaches, getting their hands dirty alongside their teams. - AI-native pods: We’ll be concentrating around AI-native talent who can manage fleets of agents to drive outsized impact. We’ll also be experimenting with reduced pod sizes, including “one person teams” with engineers, designers, and product managers all in one role. In short: AI is bringing a profound shift in how companies operate, and we’re reshaping Coinbase to lead in this new era. This is a new way of working, and we need to leverage AI across every facet of our jobs. To those who are affected I know there are real people behind these decisions — talented colleagues who have poured themselves into this company and our mission. To those of you who will be leaving: thank you. You’ve helped build Coinbase into what it is today, and I am sincerely grateful for everything you've done. All impacted team members will receive an email to their personal account in the next hour with more information, and an invitation to meet with an HRBP and a senior leader in your organization. Coinbase system access has been removed today. I know this feels sudden and harsh, but it is the only responsible choice given our duty to protect customer information. To those affected, we will be providing a comprehensive package to support you through this transition. US employees will receive a minimum of 16 weeks base pay (plus 2 weeks per year worked), their next equity vest, and 6 months of COBRA. Employees on a work visa will get extra transition support. Those outside of the US will receive similar support, based on local factors and subject to any consultation requirements. Coinbase prides itself on talent density. Our employees are among the most talented people in the world, and I have no doubt that your skills and experience will be highly sought after as you pursue your next chapters. How we move forward To the team that is staying, I know this is a difficult day. We’re saying goodbye to colleagues and friends you've been in the trenches with. But here’s what I want you to know as we move forward together: Over the past 13 years, we have weathered four crypto winters, gone public, and built the most trusted platform in our industry. We’ve made it this far by making hard decisions and by always staying focused on our mission. This time will be no different – nothing has changed about the long term outlook of our company or industry. And most importantly, our mission has never been more important for the world. Increasing economic freedom requires a new financial system, and we’re building it. The Coinbase that emerges from this will be more capable than ever to achieve our mission. Brian

This is why they were killing journalists! They didn't want us to see this!

🇺🇸BREAKING: Someone placed a $920 million crude oil short at 3:40 AM. 70 minutes later Axios reported the US and Iran were close to a deal. Oil dropped 12%. The trade made $125 million in profit. Minutes after that Iran launched the “Persian Gulf Strait Authority” and oil surged 8%. $760 million placed before Trump’s last announcement. $920 million placed before this one. Every major announcement in this war has been front-run by someone who knew it was coming. What kind of war is this? This is more like a trading desk with an army. Never stop connecting the dots.

⚡️ WATCH — JUST NOW — 99% white Tennessee House Republicans pass a racist 9-0 map stripping majority Black Memphis of congressional representation

The New York Times shows the damning evidence that ICE is offloading its racial profiling onto local cops, as we predicted. Abhorrent behavior. A conspiracy against our rights.

Kash Patel's testimony is 99% redacted. "The most transparent administration in America's history" my ass.

@TheStockGuyTV @Twitch You're wrong on every. single. thing. I want @Twitch to boost streamers who respect women, not bigots like you. I don't care where you stream. You aren't the victim. Again, you defend nothing and attack to retaliate instead of EVER taking criticism reconsidering your actions.

This @Twitch front page frequenter's response to every criticism: -"i fked your mom/woman" -something something "my dick/balls" something -my one minority friend/partner says it's funny -R slur -pity-farming (childhood, you just wanna hurt me, manipulation, etc)

@TheStockGuyTV @Twitch Twitter blue content-brained clout farmer assumes I do the same. I'm not monetized. I'm sick of bigoted communities online & I'm calling out bad actors being boosted by the system. You're so cooked you forget most of us don't do things for content. Look at yourself bro

@emobandaid @Twitch I just realized you are only doing this to promote yourself... and i fell for it fuck

"Because of women & money." "I don't read books. Let me get a summary from ChatGPT." Watch @Twitch's CEO platform @TheStockGuyTV on #Twitch podcast & front page placement 3rd time in a month, massive support rarely/never given to 99% of #creators. #twatsoftwitch #fintwit

nah bro, you don't like the way my wife and i address eachother. It bothers you so much, that instead of just watching something else, you want me de-platformed. btw, my wife saw your hate thread, and her literal reaction was "Why does he care so much. Sounds like he needs to get laid"

@WinterSociety32 @Madelin91856680 @CalltoActivism Again, you're relying on a megacorp's algorithm to tell you what to think. A "succinct blurb" written by an algo. You want snack-sized answers to every question and think you're going to get facts & whole truths that way? Absolutely weak-minded to trust the top results.

@emobandaid @Madelin91856680 @CalltoActivism same thing we're used to doing, just presented to us much faster and more succinctly.

HOLY SHIT. This is EXACTLY how you cook a misogynist.

@Teratogen7 @Twitch @TheStockGuyTV If you find bigoted nicknames & disrespecting women hilarious, gross flex but okay. Watch him all you want. @Twitch is pushing him to the front page & bumping him in their algo over the thousands of others. Ever see StockJock or MsIzzyTrades get #TTV front page for example?

@emobandaid @Twitch @TheStockGuyTV That's hilarious, stocky has quick wit and a great sense of humor, definitely recommend watching him over other twitch streamers.

@TheStockGuyTV @Twitch Does she then go to work and advertise it permanently online? Does she call you a bigoted nickname publicly? Are you incompetent or just irrationally defensive? You can't defend what you do so you're doing the "I have a marginalized friend" argument like it's your free pass.

@emobandaid @Twitch You should hear the nasty shit she likes me calling her during sex

@TheStockGuyTV @Twitch "Kids, I know I degrade your mom, discuss our sex life publicly using violent language & disrespect her online daily to 2k people but your life is better than mine was, be grateful!" You can't pity-farm your way out of bad conduct. You manipulate when you can't defend. Why?

@emobandaid @Twitch Like how I gave them a better life than I had?

Hegseth running into trouble early in today’s hearing Hegseth: Iran’s nuclear facilities have been obliterated. Smith: You said we had to start this war because the nuclear weapon was an imminent threat. Now you’re saying it was completely obliterated?

ICE detain father—agent laughs, waves goodbye, and blows kisses to son. Agents could not give any reason for traffic stop—except racial profiling. Son: "What's the reason for the stop?" Agent: "Because." Martin Troncoso has lived and worked in the U.S. for the past 26 years. His son is a fitness coach and they both live in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Your Farm Bill literally lets pesticide corporations dump cancer-causing chemicals into our air, water, and food…

Two days ago, Trump said people calling him a "king" led to the most recent assassination attempt: "The reason you have people like that is you have people doing No Kings. I'm not a king."

I don’t think it’s an exaggeration to call this the greatest piece of prediction market content created to date.

Nothing says Make America Healthy Again like appointing a tobacco executive to be a leader at the CDC
