Pretty neat but not as significant as 13.3M additional unlocks per month starting April 23rd…

@SSJCurrency Well said. I’m hodling. I expect as Base grows, so will a more sophisticated investor class.

$BNKR as a token is struggling but that's only because investors on Base are slowly becoming pumpfun chasers I interact with a lot of interesting people daily and I can see that people who follow me and talk to me aren't sub 1-min traders These guys are hodlers and want to see projects like @bankrbot succeed Deployer and CO are shipping daily Their aim is to provide a full on product suite for AI agents to launch seamlessly and streamline their operations from A to Z They recently shipped a x402 cloud interface I am personally going to use BANKR when Blocktronics goes live I don't care if the token is at 29M in terms of mc right now, I will keep betting on it simply because I believe in the longevity and success of the project We're all tired of these endless rotations Bring back HODLING Believe in good teams and good products BANKR will rise back up to reclaim 100M and probably go above that

@AvgJoesCrypto Trump could delay again if talks are “going well”. But yeah ceasefire by Tuesday seems unlikely lol

Hmmm

This is Zcash FUD. It describes an incredibly unrealistic scenario that a majority of people will participate in a specific application of crypto that would have unintended consequences. This is exactly what bank lobbyists claim about stablecoins. “Everyone will take money out of community banks! Can you imagine the damage it would do to the economy?” | a majority of people will continue to enjoy FDIC insured deposits over yield chasing or else they would already have everything parked in MMF.

@davidtsocy @iamheci @base Bought a chipotle bowl using USDC with @FlexaHQ

Comment with something cool you saw or did on @base recently

@Cointelegraph They should be getting some competition when Morgan Stanley comes out with its lower fee Bitcoin ETF

🚨 INSIGHT: BlackRock’s IBIT sees $16–18B daily volume, nearing Binance spot activity.

This is cherry picking. They spent $81k per “unsheltered” homeless ($386m / 4.5k “unsheltered” homeless = $81k) which is around 3% of homeless in NYC. The real number per homeless person is closer to $26k per person (total Department of Homeless Services spending $3.7B / 140k homeless = $26k). There is fraud in the system - won’t disagree there. Just not as sensational as this post is claiming.

NYC just accidentally exposed the scam They spent $81,705 per homeless person last year… While the median American household earned just $81,228. That money isn’t going to the homeless, it’s feeding the entire homeless industrial complex, shelters, admins, case managers, NGOs, and endless overhead. It’s a SCAM!

@ArthurMacwaters @elonmusk The true number is actually $26k per homeless person in NYC. The $81k number thrown around is per “unsheltered” homeless. I’m sure there will be no correction to this post though…

Empathy is good But fraudsters and embezzlers have hijacked our empathy $81k/yr per homeless person $52k/yr per capita income This is insanity and is clearly untenable.

DeFi Summer is coming back to Mainnet Ethereum.

@MissusMitch @unusual_whales Sheltered homeless are homeless that are inside the DHS system living in shelters or hotels contracted by NYC. Unsheltered are homeless that are sleeping in subways, encampments, parks, etc.

@ethplantbaseeth @unusual_whales Ok I need help here. What’s a homeless person versus an “unsheltered” homeless person? Isn’t that… the same thing?

New York City spent $81,705 spent per homeless person last year. Meanwhile, the household median income was at $81,228, per Newsweek.

@MHE_BE3ET @unusual_whales Yes there is incredible fraud in this system. They just recently went after some bad actors: news4jax.com/news/national/…

@ethplantbaseeth @unusual_whales It's even worse. 3.7B for homeless? It's giant fraud isn't it?

NYC did not spend $81k per homeless person last year. They spent $81k per “unsheltered” homeless ($386m / 4.5k “unsheltered” homeless = $81k) which is around 3% of homeless in NYC. The real number per homeless person is closer to $26k per person (total Department of Homeless Services spending $3.7B / 140k homeless = $26k). Still may be high but not as sensational as people are claiming it is. Sources: - osc.ny.gov/files/reports/… -council.nyc.gov/budget/wp-cont… -osc.ny.gov/press/releases…

Everybody ready for the “stock market is closed today; crypto is always open” posts tomorrow?

@willahmed Congrats on the round and everything you’ve built. Hitting 300 days tomorrow and don’t plan on stopping. Completely changed my life & health with this product, thank you for keeping going.

You have no experience. You’ve never started a company. You’ve never had a full time job. Nike is going to kill you. You’re a kid. You don’t have technical skills. You shouldn’t build hardware. Apple is going to kill you. You can’t build hardware. You can’t measure heart rate non-invasively. Athletes don’t care about recovery. Under Armour is going to kill you. It won’t be accurate. You don’t listen. You’re an ineffective leader. You can’t recruit great talent. You’re going to have to pay every athlete. You can’t measure sleep non-invasively. It’s too expensive to research. Athletes are a small market. The product costs too much to make. The product costs too much to sell. Your valuation is too high. Consumers aren’t going to want it. Hardware is too hard. You should measure steps. Fitbit is going to kill you. You can’t build a marketing engine. You can’t raise enough money. You need a real CEO. Google is going to kill you. You can’t be a subscription. You can’t build a brand. You can’t do consumer in Boston. Your valuation is too high. You shouldn’t make accessories. You shouldn’t make apparel. Lululemon is going to kill you. You can’t predict Covid. Stay in your niche. You are going to run out of money. You can’t build a health platform. Amazon is going to kill you. You can’t measure blood pressure. You can’t get medical approvals. The market is too small. You don’t understand AI. The market is too competitive. It won’t work internationally. The supply chain is too complicated. You can’t build an AI. You can’t raise enough money. It’s too competitive. Healthcare isn’t going to want it. … Just keep going ✌️

@davidtsocy @base Agree. But what do people miss about the old @base ? Could be lessons in that.

They say they miss the old @base from 2023 The reality is, if we stayed the same, we’d be dead The only way to win is to keep learning and iterating

@etheraider Dw, they will find ways to extract value from the protocol’s users 🤩

"Now tell them we need it for runway"

@XenBH We are going to be able to take loans out against tokenized cattle 🐄. Every asset is coming onchain.

Historically, crypto's collateral model has been fragile because it's been made up of highly correlated, volatile assets (e.g. BTC, ETH) RWAs introduce uncorrelated, less volatile and yield bearing assets. This creates a much stronger foundation for the growth and maturation of new markets.

I bet if those people were all LPs of his fund, they would be pretty happy too lol. Most people do not have that sort of connection, let alone the capital required to be an accredited investor or investor in social capital. However, the public do get access to Chamath’s insights and bets (of those he’s willing to share); some people get burned and some people make a ton of money. That’s kinda the name of the game imo. Most people don’t understand diversification so they get burned on high risk, high reward bets then they blame Chamath when in reality, he’s hedging his bets the entire time and has not said otherwise.

Never understood why people bag on @chamath His funds just keep sending me 💵 Never got a cheque from any of other VC funds I'm an LP of 😭
