@scottmelker Never trust anyone talking about ETH with BTC in their bio. Shame on you scumbag.

BREAKING: TWO ETHEREUM $ETH FOUNDATION RESEARCHERS ANNOUNCE RESIGNATIONS AMID ONGOING EXITS

@TheMoonCarl 0 govt officials were arrested in this particular sting. Happy to see this type of enforcement though.

THIS IS ACTUALLY INSANE!🤯 The FBI launched its own crypto token last year just to trap the scammers. They were sick of pump and dumps. So they built a real token with a real site and real branding, called it NexFundAI, and waited to see who would show up. Within weeks, scammers were lining up to fake the volume for undercover agents. Then one of them got on a recorded call and said it out loud. Their entire business model was making regular people lose money so they could profit. The FBI had all of it on tape. 18 charged. $25M seized. Arrests across 3 countries. The wildest part? The FBI ran a cleaner crypto project than half the founders out there. And the whole thing was a trap from day one.

@patfscott @grok which chains will benefit most from this ?

$4B to $350B this decade so far. The US Treasury is predicting stablecoins alone hit $3T by 2030. Standard Chartered just forecasted $4T by 2028. Blackrock has projected $10T by 2030. The biggest finance shift in a generation is happening. And with it, real-time settlement, global markets, and programmable assets are going to unleash a wave of innovation. We're already seeing the start of this with global USD access, pre-IPO perps, 24/7 commodity futures, prediction markets, and tokenized TCG marketplaces.

@econoar welcome back sir.

Took a 6 month break from this god forsaken place Come back to EF drama and ETH at $2200 Time is a flat circle Higher

@AvgJoesCrypto no you won't

I will full port $BMNR if anyone can explain, in detail, what is currently happening in agentic AI that is driving value towards $ETH.

@Shaughnessy119 Haha same bro.

AI makes us work less? Buddy I've been yelling at my multiple AI Agents using Wispr flow for like ten hours

I understand clearly my friend. And we are on the same team re ETH. Calling me names doesn't hurt my feelings, It makes me feel worse for ya. I truly feel for people like you whose hobbies are to argue with people on the internet. Hope you can one day find your inner peace.

@yugenesque If you can't understand the insight here because you are stuck with calling it AI slop because I used AI articulate my points more eloquently then you are dumb af and I feel sorry I wasted my time debating it with you.

Your home is not an asset. It is a liability. When the price of your home goes up, you are tying more capital to a massive expense due to upkeep costs and property taxes. That leaves you with less money to invest in actual assets, especially assets with no carrying costs or assets that generate passive income.

@AdrianoFeria Nobody here trying to convince ya to buy a home bro. Appreciate the AI slop though. FYI; you’d get the opposite answer if you asked it why buying a home is a good investment. I have owned homes and ETH since 2017. My homes have outperformed ETH 11x. Glad I have both.

A primary residence fails the definition of an asset on cash-flow grounds. It has permanent negative cash flow from property taxes, insurance, maintenance, mortgage interest, and transaction costs that compound on every move. The appreciation narrative survives only by ignoring opportunity cost on tied-up equity, selectively measuring nominal rather than real returns, cherry-picking the past 15 years of ZIRP-distorted housing markets, and double-counting the leverage benefit while ignoring leverage risk. Also, landlord economics aren't owner economics. Current price-to-rent ratios in most US metros mean renters are effectively subsidized by landlords betting on appreciation, and renters retain the optionality to invest the differential in liquid, diversified, higher-returning assets. There is risk taking here and if shit blows up on a systemic level, we pay the bill. If you own multiple homes, the two-home anecdote during the largest housing bull market in a generation is not evidence that homes are good assets. It's evidence that leverage during an asset bubble produces returns, which is true of literally any leveraged bet on a rising asset. Worse, at the macro level, treating homes as the default wealth vehicle drains capital from productive investment, reduces labor mobility, concentrates wealth intergenerationally, and makes the entire economy more fragile to housing-market shocks. The personal "I made money on my house" story masks a broader reality and the fact that in way one or another you carry a the burden of inflated housing prices. High housing costs it's generally very bad news for the average person, but even when it is good on the surface there are risks involved, and again, when shit hits the fan banks and speculators get a bail out and we pay for it.

@AdrianoFeria Yes, I buy every 2-3 years as that relieves US homeowners of capital gains. Leveraged and compound appreciation too. I put 10% down but earn a return on entire asset value. I pay a mortgage instead of rent. This does not always workout but it’s good to diversify.

@yugenesque Homes as in primary residence?

@andyyy You misspelled disgust ;)

Discuss.

@CoachDanGo Deadlifts and power cleans. Unless you’re training for something that requires them.

What’s the most overrated exercise on the planet?

@kenodnb @GLC_Research @maplefinance Maple down 28%. Excited to watch the comeback of all the solid projects.

My friends at @GLC_Research once again proved they're some of the best researchers in the space with their new @maplefinance Q1 2026 report. Some takeaways... Q1 2026 was a rough quarter for crypto. BTC down 22.6%, ETH down 32%, DeFi lending down 17%. Maple's AUM still grew 1.9% to $4.66B. Despite 70+ margin calls at peak market stress, zero forced liquidations occurred. Loans fell 27% but revenue only dropped 5.9% to $6.51M, still up 451% year-over-year, because Maple was earning more per dollar of loans deployed. Both syrupUSDC and syrupUSDT crossed $1B in deposits, each yielding around 200 bps above Aave v3 throughout the entire quarter. The bigger picture: this was the first serious macro stress test for onchain credit infrastructure since 2022, and Maple came through it remarkably well. The report is 30 pages, definitely worth going through. Don't forget to follow @GLC_Research.

@Kalshi Makes sense why the market is down 😂

JUST IN: Charles Schwab launches Bitcoin and Ethereum trading

@patfscott @Grantblocmates It's a no brainer for international. Lay flat seats are a game changer.

@Grantblocmates I need to level up. never flown anything but economy

had to fly 4 hours in economy yesterday if I ever lose it all I’d rather just not fly fear of going back to that shit is all the motivation I ever need

@JRL12483 @brian_armstrong no it isn't

@brian_armstrong Regulation to crypto is like sunlight to a vampire!

CLARITY is closer than ever. The bill is strong. It will benefit the American people by making the US financial system faster, cheaper and more accessible. It will also ensure that the US leads in the global race to build the next generation of our financial system. Huge thank you to the Senate, their staff, and 3.7m @standwithcrypto advocates for helping to get this legislation to where it is today. Mark it up.

@leonabboud I dunno man Chicago and Austin are pretty great.

There are absolutely no benefits to living in a tier 2 city of a developed country. Toronto? Philadelphia? Manchester? What are you actually getting in these cities other than the high cost of living that comes from being in a developed country? The play is either to live in a tier 1 city where by proximity to money you will make more money. New York, Hong Kong, Singapore, LA… Or to live in a developing country for half the cost of a tier 2 city with the same infrastructure. Places like Bali, Rio, Bangkok, Medellín, Buenos Aires. You literally have the same infrastructure (internet, food, water, hospitals) of Toronto for a third of the price, with a 10x better lifestyle. Why would anyone willingly choose living in Toronto over Rio when you can make money from a laptop?

@tferriss Amen brother 🙏

Everyone is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Everyone struggles. Take solace in that.

The world you grew up in no longer exists: 😪

@Gerard_papa @30GotNext This wasn’t his last shot. MJ>LB
