@PikaTradez congrats man, love to see you cross the million dollar payout mark. huge milestone.

I figure now is a good time to start sharing my journey... after holding off for well over a year. I just recently crossed $1M in payouts. Future posts will be short, the last thing I want is to turn into some guru selling a course or “algo”. The reality is trading is fucking hard and there are no shortcuts. I’m going to do my best to share my experience with the props I trade. First shoutout goes to @E8Markets and @E8Futures after receiving $90,000 in payouts from them so far. Massively underrated in my opinion. A lot of firms are moving users to live after 1-2 payouts, but E8 has been a nice change from that. Thank you @DylanElchami @E8Andrew @E8Angel and the rest of the team for running a great prop. Hopefully this is the first of many posts on here... stay tuned 🫡

@quantedOptions man love seeing this. the way you map out those paths is very helpful.

@carlomigueldy congrats man great to see your full stack experience

Hi everyone, I’m currently looking for my next long-term, full-time role. I’m a Senior Software Engineer / Web3 Product Engineer with leadership experience. I specialize in full-stack development with TypeScript, React, Next.js, SQL, Nest.js, Foundry/Hardhat, Solidity, Go, and indexers like TheGraph and Envio. I’ve shipped production features across frontend, backend, smart contracts, testing, CI/CD, and Web3 infrastructure. I also use AI-augmented engineering workflows to move faster from requirements to production-ready implementation. Any leads, referrals, reposts, or recommendations are deeply appreciated 🙏

@tony_llorente95 man loved reading this. it’s important to connect past and future generations.

“It is time to reconnect our communities with our ancestral traditional knowledge, it is time to reconnect them with our mother tongue, and it is undoubtedly, time to reconnect us with Mother Earth. The use of technology has played a gigantic role in connecting us to the world, and it is now reconnecting us to our past, to our present, and it will serve us to stay connected to our future generations. Let us keep growing as a family, learning from each other, supporting each other’s dreams, to make a better world, to make CONNECTIONS that LAST”.

@DeadMKT congrats man great to see the protocol handling 160 nodes so smoothly

Just wrapping up running a single pool with 160 independent nodes connected (individual bot traders)... Love this part of the audit report... ### What the data empirically confirms **The protocol comfortably handles 160 nodes in a single pool.** At steady state: - 400 trades/min cluster-wide with zero fatal anomalies - 100% signature validity across 12-node sample of 800-line log tails — no gossip corruption - Chain lag 27–65 blocks throughout the ramp — well under the 500-block failure threshold - Zero `SEQUENCE_NUMBER_TOO_OLD`, zero gas-OOG on settlement path, zero gossip-channel drops - 155/160 unique participants in any 2-minute window — active membership - Per-node settle burn ~0.92 SUPRA/trade; economically tractable with periodic faucet **No hard limit was reached.** We found *degradation signals* (brief RPC transients, per-node throughput variance) but nothing that would have stopped the pool from continuing to grow. ### Does this mean a pool can have **more than** 160 nodes? — Yes, probably substantially. Evidence that 160 is not the ceiling: 1. **Per-node throughput rebounded** once the cluster reached steady state (1.25 → 2.5 trades/min/node in 5 min). The low-throughput snapshot in §6 was a transient during restart-storm boot, not a scale limit. 2. **Chain lag stayed flat** (not trending up) during the whole ramp from 20 → 160 — the indexer never fell behind. 3. **Gossip was healthy at 160**. libp2p gossipsub already scales beyond 1000 peers in published benchmarks; our 160-node mesh with peer1 as a single bootstrap relay is nowhere near gossipsub's limits. 4. **Settle aborts at 160 were all `E_*_INACTIVE`** (from 4 legacy zombie NFTs 2/3/4/5 still gossiping orders), never gas, never gossip-race, never sequence-race. Thanks to @Hetzner_Online for upping our limits to 40 servers... is it too soon to ask for 100? 😃

@MarcosMillaYT man love seeing this. great comparison of nvidia and micron for future potential.

NVIDIA $NVDA was never a secret… It’s crushed the S&P 500 $VOO since it’s IPO in 1999… I believe the same run could happen with Micron $MU

@jakerb_ @calebandbrown congrats man, great to see you enjoyed another successful year at the vegas event.

Another great year of #XRPLV with @calebandbrown My favorite event of the year honestly, one of the only ones where every attendee has skin in the game. #XRP community is strong. Until next time 🫡

@OverdueDaily man love seeing this. great breakdown of the fundamental growth versus current stock price action.

What I’m watching this week: $NVDA $NVDA sitting at ~$198 right now. Wall Street’s average target: $266. Highest target: $380. 57 out of 60 analysts say Strong Buy. Revenue up 73% last year. Earnings up 82% last quarter. Next earnings: May 20th. The stock has traded sideways for 6 months while the fundamentals kept accelerating. AI capex from Google, Amazon, Meta and Microsoft is still growing. The Rubin GPU launches in H2 2026 — analysts say it’s 4x faster than Blackwell. I’m watching closely here. Not financial advice always do your own research 🧐 I’m long $NVDA.

@AmadiegwuO86499 loved reading this. skills truly keep you in the room and grow value.

“Your job title won’t save you—your skills will.” I once worked with someone whose title sounded impressive. On paper, he had everything going for him. But when pressure came, tight deadlines, system breakdowns, urgent decisions it became clear that the title couldn’t solve the problem. Skills had to. That’s the reality many professionals don’t prepare for. Titles can open doors. But skills keep you in the room,and grow your value inside it. In today’s workplace, especially in fast-moving environments like operations, business, and tech: Problems don’t wait for hierarchy Results don’t respect titles And performance is what gets remembered The professionals who stand out are not the ones with the biggest titles, they are the ones who can solve problems, improve systems, and deliver results consistently. Because when things go wrong, and they will no one asks for your title. They ask: “Can you fix it?” So, the real question is not what you’re called at work… it’s what you can do when it matters most. What skill are you building right now that will still be valuable 5 years from today?

@_0xamazing @kamino loved reading this. the breakdown on managing liquidation risk for yield strategies is very practical.

The 'MULTIPLY' function on @kamino is like a leveraged yield strategy. You deposit an asset into sol or other stablecoin strategy, and Kamino borrows more of the same asset to increase your exposure, then reinvests automatically You earn fees on your total leveraged position, not just your deposit You can increase your leverage to get more yield. The max leverage is 2.5x. The higher the leverage, the higher the risk buffer gets thinner. The max net APY as of today is 17.94%. You could go for a lesser APY to reduce risk. I chose the ONyc looping strategy because there hasn't been a liquidation risk for more than 6 months. As always, DYOR...

@Aswin_Aji_Raj @Glam_app man love seeing this. the way you handle cinematic prompts for beauty brands is stellar.

This is what AI thinks luxury beauty looks like 🖤✨ Cinematic. Glamorous. Completely AI-generated. No camera. No studio. No budget. Just a prompt and this. @glam_app DM me "GLAM" and I'll send you the tool that made this 👇

@LanceLogic man love seeing this unique approach to feedback loops inside your fitness app builds.

I built 'Tough Love' into my fitness app's AI, but people said it wasn't tough enough. So I spent 2 hours adding 'Toxic' mode. ATLAS now calls out plateaus as 'attendance problems.'

@_AttendMe_ congrats man, great to see you finally get that ios app live on store.

Officially live on the iOS App Store! Check us out, Playstore coming soon. 🚀

@spotters_inc man love seeing this the part about drive determining impact is great

If you want to improve in life, surround yourself with people who excel beyond you. Their presence can lift you to new heights, but only if you’re driven and ambitious. Without that drive, you’re not just holding yourself back you’re also hindering those around you.

@AuthorBruceMcL cool results man loved how you did those book signings in phuket.

Incredible stay at Grand Mercure Phuket, Patong 🇹🇭 Met amazing people, did a few book signings, and completely fell in love with Thailand. One of those trips you never forget. We’ll be back in 2027.

@Jaminle3011 cool results man. great to see you pulling in so many active users organically.

Organic Traffic is unreal 🤯 I made a website and have not been touching it since January, today I check my Analytics and see a number that I can not imagine. 369 active users this month and 310 (84%) comes from Organic search (Google + Bing). SEO is really something magical.

@etholvants man love seeing this. its great that the html is fetched directly from the blockchain and rendered live

You can view any etholvant in your browser directly from the contract using w3eth url. For example the URL to view the current king: 👉 …b19f5d51c5daab9af682b2a66744.w3eth.io/tokenHTML/10825 The HTML is fetched directly from the blockchain and rendered live!

@PandoraCS @Lamzugear loved reading this. the way you explained the friction and build quality is great.

Here's my review of the Maya by @Lamzugear. Right out of the box, the Lamzu Maya glass mousepad gives off a premium, almost collector-level vibe. The packaging is clean and minimal, and the pad itself immediately stands out with its sleek glass surface and subtle Maya-themed design. The moment you pick it up, you notice: Solid, high-quality glass construction Thin profile (~1.5mm). Smooth, cool-to-the-touch surface. It feels less like a glass pad and more like a desk centerpiece for your wall and desk. Design & Build Visually, this thing is the Maya aesthetic, which is clean without being distracting. Edges are rounded, so no sharp discomfort during long sessions. The base grips your desk well — no sliding even during quick flicks. Size-wise, it’s a solid 490 x 420 mm, giving you plenty of room for both low- and high-sensitivity players. What to expect when using it: an ultra-smooth glide, almost frictionless Feels noticeably faster than cloth Tracking feels consistent and precise. It’s clearly designed with speed in mind, but not uncontrollable speed. It feels more of a balanced speed pad with some stopping control to it.
