@robin_j_brooks Wow three dimensional markets chart lookin like a linear algebra vector hahahaha first time ive seen one on fintwit XD

If we go back to the Strait of Hormuz being closed, the resulting supply shock - for reasonable estimates of the price elasticity of demand - could take Brent to $125, which was the peak in March and April. Inventory drawdowns haven't changed that number. robinjbrooks.substack.com/p/how-much-wil…

@dividendology Its more of interest rates trending down since 1981

@cz_binance When will app be available on app store again? We currently cant update the app cause its not on app store here in ph. We are missing out on new features like stocks trading hehe. Also sad to see our government officials extorting money from you with all those regulations

Just back from the Philippines. One of the most exciting digital asset markets in SEA right now, jumping to 4th globally in TRM Labs' Country Crypto Adoption Index. Their regulators get it. Collaborative, forward-thinking, focused on outcomes: consumer protection, innovation, growth. Rare combo. Met great people at the Department of Finance including Secretary Frederick Go, the SEC’s Chairman Francis Lim, and the BlockShoals team. Real conversations about where the industry is heading. Big one: the SEC's PhiliFintech Innovation Office just gave BlockShoals in-principle approval under StratBox. This is what good regulation looks like. Build pathways, not walls. Programs like that signal that the Philippines is serious. Confidence attracts capital. Capital funds innovation. Flywheel starts here. Bullish on the Philippines. And crypto - buying the dip. More soon. 🇵🇭

$SPY ripped 3% today. Most people saw the move. Almost nobody understood why. It was a gamma squeeze — and you could see it coming hours before it happened. Here’s how.

@Diamond_Cruiser Looks delicious af

KFC in China is kinda wild

I just put my money where my mouth is on @Polymarket. Trade against me: polymarket.com/market/yoon-ou…

Crypto OGs remember @NafterApp

I just claimed some AVAIL. Time to unify web3. claim.availproject.org/share/5Gvb4AZT… via @availproject

@Diamond_Cruiser Agree. Tho hyperfinancialization made my experience worse on all these apps tbh. Essence and mission of these apps has been lost. Twitter has become cluttered for farming instead of socializing, and games lost their soul and entertainment players just grind daily tasks for money

Web3 is not decentralization. It is not ownership. It is not transparency. It is the hyperfinancialization of everything. Every action online will be monetized. We will speculate on everything. This is what happens when every single person on earth has a verified-human wallet - and money moves freely for the first time.

💰👀 Farcaster developer Merkle Manufactory is close to completing a funding round valued at approximately $1 billion, led by Paradigm Join warpcast guys. Could be another geat airdrop opportunity 🙂 warpcast.com/~/invite-page/…

@CC2Ventures @danreecer_ All i need in life rn is..

ALRIGHT, DROP THE CHECKER @danreecer_ WE'RE READY TO ENTER THE WORMHOLE

So close, yet so far Either way, it's going to be a big $W

@LeonidasNFT Can a non whitelisted address snipe and front run mints for a project with wl only minting?

WTF is mempool sniping? Here is everything you need to know: This morning Ordinals entered a new era of PvP warfare in the mempool (otherwise known as MEV on Ethereum) when a group of sophisticated botters picked off many of the OrdiBots mints from the people who thought they had minted them. Let's break down what happened and what this means going forward. Ordinals inscriptions are traded using PSBT swaps (partially signed Bitcoin transactions). The way it works is the seller signs an off-chain PSBT that states that anybody can complete the swap as long as X amount of BTC is sent to the seller's address. A marketplace guards this off-chain PSBT until a buyer comes along and signs the other half at which point the transaction is broadcasted to the Bitcoin network. The swap transaction now sits in the mempool waiting for a miner to confirm it but because Bitcoin blocks are mined ~10 minutes apart it will likely sit there for a long time. During this waiting period, anybody can retrieve a PSBT from the mempool, sign it themselves, and submit their version back into the mempool but with a higher fee so that it will be confirmed first. This front-running technique is known as "mempool sniping" and it is how many of the PSBT mints for OrdiBots were picked off this morning. The OrdiBots mint was likely the tip of the iceberg. I expect tooling to come online in the next several weeks that will allow anyone to go to a website and with a few clicks snipe inscription purchases from the mempool. This means that if you purchase an inscription on an Ordinals marketplace or are minting a hot Ordinals drop, you aren't guaranteed to receive it. If somebody snipes your purchase from the mempool you will be refunded the BTC you paid but you also won't receive the inscription. But let's take things a step further. It is also likely that these tools will allow you to front-run the actual inscribing part as well which could be very profitable in first-is-first style metaprotocols. For example, you could front-run someone who is deploying a BRC-20 token by registering the ticker first, or in a first-is-first byte-perfect collection mint you could inscribe the same image as someone else but pay just a 1 sat higher fee in order to be first. Lastly, if you throw into the mix that in certain high-value situations a miner could theoretically kick everyone else's transactions out of the block and insert their own, you could see how things could get messy very quickly. The is called selfish mining. Just as there will be tools for sniping other people's transactions I expect there to be tools for protecting your own transactions as well. Other chains like Ethereum have dealt with MEV/frontrunning for years, but it is a new concept on Bitcoin, so we will need to wake up to this reality and get much more sophisticated very quickly. The best outcome here is that we create easy to use mempool sniping and monitoring tools that everyone has access to in order to prevent a scenario where a select few are able to prey on the masses.

PBoC injecting 107b usd in liquidity last october 16 ignited a rally in crypto. They are about to inject another 130b usd tomorrow. And as per @zerohedge data crypto surges everytime capital/fx outflows from china ramps up. Buy this dip bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

W/ airdrop farming becoming super mainstream, this might be the last cycle where airdrop grinding method remains highly profitable. My top suggestions for follow are @MingoAirdrop @CC2Ventures @OlimpioCrypto @nobrainflip @mztacat They create good guides and alpha for airdrops 🙂

1/ On How Short Life Is A few years ago, I was walking around in a blizzard in SoHo (New York). It was late, midnight, and it was beautiful. Some friends, about 15 blocks away, called: "come over?" It was late, it was cold, was tired, thought "maybe not worth it" but then...

Some Narratives from 2017 • DragonCoin had a "partnership" with Disney • Justin Sun as Jack Ma's protege and an Alibaba partnership was possible. • EOS as the ETH killer. Neo as the ETH of China. • Dentacoin. A blockchain for dentists.. What else do you guys remember?

This is the textbook difference between #Bitcoin Proof of Work, unalterable by stakeholders and Proof of Stake projects, which can be shut down, changed, censored or deleted at anytime by the stakeholders/founders

@Ov3rKoalafied @BasedXeno @luigidemeo @statelayer @MonetSupply @The3D_ @pllexity Revenue sharing will make it classified as a security and would give the founders lots of headache. Dont think rev share will ever happen XD

@BasedXeno @luigidemeo @statelayer @MonetSupply @The3D_ @pllexity Also a lot of investors are looking for revenue sharing without trying to figure out how much revenue these protocols are actually making

The last time $AAVE was worth around $70, the TVL was below 1B and the treasury was worth 0. We are now at 8.5B and 50M in treasury assets.
