it’s a small tragedy that james dale davidson doesn’t post on twitter

edge compounds: better infra/model and more capital → higher win rate and risk tolerance → tighter quotes, more flow, and more market share (very winner-take-all) → more capital to reinvest in infra/model leaders pull away until microstructure changes or new products appear

I am a long-time admirer of @davidasinclair’s longevity research also found it morbidly funny that D.A. Sinclair in @InvincibleHQ is a mad biochem scientist who believes humans are flawed and need fixing

praising sbf’s investment acumen is a category error. managing capital within a mandate and risk parameters is completely different from punting with customer deposits like a shakespearean monkey.

👀 Just some solid APR on $APR LP positions across @PancakeSwap and @CapricornDEX on Monad

wish it were true, but local models pale against frontier models in quality, and i don’t understand how people can live with ~10 tks/s

i don’t respect trolls who only come out of the bushes to pile on when someone’s down

i interned at sig 6 yrs ago when the sports trading desk had been around for 3 it was also early in covid when we talked about how a market on deaths could converge to truth about its severity (morbidly but quickly) as a public good fitting to see sig on kalshi's $1B bracket

used obsidian early on, then stopped for no real reason. coming back into it now with AI integration and it’s been pure joy.

Season 1 of APR Boost has concluded. We are distributing allocations to all eligible participants across direct interactions and ecosystem partner waves. Looking forward to the next phase.

aprMON is now a Cross-Chain Token (CCT), powered exclusively by Chainlink CCIP. @aPriori also integrated Price Feeds to secure its APR & aprMON markets.

We’re excited to roll out APR Boost. A few things to note and add: ⌘ "65% goes to users who interact directly with aPriori’s products, using a fixed public formula." Most incentive programs keep their scoring rules vague for good reasons, but we decided to open source ours completely. We are unfazed even if people want to gamify or farm the system. We built APR Boost expecting users to optimize, but in all honesty, genuine activities alone should get you a long way. Since $APR is already a liquid token instead of a points system, users can immediately get a sense of the value they are earning with their actions. We want to stay fully transparent while still growing the business in a healthy way. Have fun: apriori-docs.gitbook.io/apriori-docs/a… ⌘ "The daily-updating dashboard goes live later this week." The team is pushing hard to make sure the data is accurate and easy to follow. ⌘ We’ve assembled an amazing group of partners who will be sharing more about how $APR fits into their protocols. I’m genuinely grateful for their support. ⌘ Mainnet airdrop claim opens in 3 days, and you can check your status now. We originally planned for instant claims on day one, but launching on a brand new L1 takes more time to get everything fully ready. This includes infrastructure, trading venues, and especially liquidity. The team will be working around the clock to make sure $APR pairs have enough liquidity across different venues through both incentives and a direct provision on the bid side with MON and USDC. Once claim opens, the entire amount will be claimable instantly. Our short term goal: when users claim, they should be able to trade or use a meaningful size of $APR directly on Monad without needing to bridge out. Our long term goal: $APR becomes the most liquid asset on Monad. ⌘ When checking your airdrop status, make sure you connect your social, Discord, and EVM wallet so you do not miss out. ⌘ Looking forward to sharing more as we keep building. Thank you to everyone in the community who has been with us from the start.

1/ Introducing APR Boost: The largest protocol-run liquid incentive program on Monad, transparently rewarding users in $APR across our products and ecosystem partners. Season 1 distributes 10,000,000 APR based on usage over 2 months. P.S. Mainnet airdrop checker is live. 👇

@aPriori Results over rhetoric: any big talk or empty promises before a live product on mainnet are just fluff. So, I’ll save everyone some time and let execution do the talking. See you Monday on Mainnet.

aPriori is aware of reports regarding possible Sybil activity targeting the $APR launch. We found no evidence that anyone on the contributing team or from the foundation has claimed the airdrop. We are excited to announce that more $APR will be airdropped to the Monad community on Mainnet Day 1 with no cliffs or lockups, primarily based on social contribution. Any existing holders will be able to bridge their $APR to Monad Mainnet on Day 1. To support genuine users, aPriori has significantly lowered the requirements to unlock airdrop allocations on Monad Mainnet, making it easier for real participants who waited to access their tokens on Monad. apriori-docs.gitbook.io/apriori-docs/a… Both liquid staking and dex aggregator products will be live on Day 1, with broad integration across ecosystem and strategic partners. Stay tuned for more announcements.
