Just met a cute girl at the wedding i'm at.
like actually cute. genuinely attractive human being.
we're talking. vibes are good. she's laughing at my jokes.
i'm being charming.
then crypto gets brought up, she says it
"i use solana"
my ears PERKED up
i played it cool. i said "oh nice, what protocols are you on"
she said "i have some SOL on Kraken"
and that's where a normal person would have said "wow that's really cool" and gotten her number
but i am not a normal person
my brain immediately went into autopilot and i said "on Kraken? do you at least self-custody?"
she looked confused
i kept going
"do you have a wallet? do you stake? what's your DeFi allocation. are you actually onchain or are you just sitting on a CEX watching candles"
she said "i bought SOL and i check the price sometimes"
and i said "so you don't actually use solana"
the vibe was GONE
her friend pulled her away. she didn't look back.
i was standing there alone at a wedding holding a drink i wasn't even sipping doing MENTAL MATH on whether someone who's never left a CEX can even call themselves a solana user
my friend walked over and said "bro she was into you what happened"
i said "she holds SOL on a CEX"
he said "so?"
SO???
i would rather DIE alone than let a CEX-only price-checker who's never opened Phantom think we're in the same ecosystem
she had a pretty face but a DISGUSTING onchain history because there IS no onchain history and i simply cannot overlook that
could've had her number
but she knows i'm running DeFi positions across Drift and Kamino at 3am while she's asleep
and honestly that's worth more
solana

Ethereum is really not looking good now
I know it's impolite to gloat and all that, but I think shitcoins like ETH, that are centralized & premined, have PoS instead of PoW, switch supply schedule at will, are harmful and deserve all the mockery they get

Stock-to-flow is really not looking good now. I know it's impolite to gloat and all that, but I think financial models that give people a false sense of certainty and predestination that number-will-go-up are harmful and deserve all the mockery they get.

@coinfessions and you wonder why boomers pay for financial advisors. they skim the fuck off the top with fees but at least they can follow basic instructions for trade execution.

My dad gave me £10K to invest into bitcoin for him, it went down a bit as I am a novice and invested at the wrong time, to about £7K. Then I took out chunks of £2K to trade in meme coins, ended up losing everything! Haven’t told him yet, if it was still invested and I didn’t touch it, it would be about £20K now.

Bybit ETH multisig cold wallet just made a transfer to our warm wallet about 1 hr ago. It appears that this specific transaction was musked, all the signers saw the musked UI which showed the correct address and the URL was from @safe . However the signing message was to change the smart contract logic of our ETH cold wallet. This resulted Hacker took control of the specific ETH cold wallet we signed and transfered all ETH in the cold wallet to this unidentified address. Please rest assured that all other cold wallets are secure.
All withdraws are NORMAL.
I will keep you guys posted as more develops, If any team can help us to track the stolen fund will be appreciated.

None of the grants have ever worked out because you can’t buy PMF. The grant reciever wants deliverables that are concrete but unrelated to PMF, because PMF is f’ing hard.
So converting the deliverables into users is on the grant writer, and it’s just impossible, because PMF is f’ing hard.
Basically everyone under the sun will write a grant $5/retained monthly active user. No one can deliver on it though because if you can really retain users at a $5 cac in crypto, you don’t need a grant. Go launch your own thing.

@rainnen23 @gainzy222 Not all parlays are -EV, but they do increase variance
English

@gainzy222 the reason its stupid is because parlays are -EV and books will take parlay action all day long
the reason its not stupid is because you are a giant nerd if you dont like to gamble on parlays
