The first Avalanche Summit I’ve attended is finally over. Not gonna lie — I’m wiped out, but one thing’s for sure: I’ll be at the next one. Big shoutout to the team for such a dope event — it was an awesome time from start to finish. Super happy I finally got to meet some amazing humans like @Dyslexsickk, @Browncappp, @xrpant , @ulaireattea13 , @DrGryzzly, @mrmocket, @cocktail3306, @Bayo0x, @Ol_DirtyKamtar, @0xNasta, @piweb_ , @0xWichita ,@CryptoMad89… and probably a few more I’m forgetting. By the next summit, I’ll make sure my English is way more on point 😅 Oh, and I also realized I might need to change my username… not the easiest one to pronounce in English 😭 See you soon 🫶

Maybe instead of always chasing new buyers, we should focus on giving current holders a reason not to sell.

Pitch done. It’s time to conquer @avax fully. If you want @TheGrottoL1 to win, wear your fuckin Bobs.

Strategy bought an eye-watering $3.38B of BTC over the past two weeks ($1.25B + $2.13B). Plenty of takes on these moves, but I want to provide some color on what they're doing to the capital structure, which I find to be especially notable. Firstly, STRC is obviously having its moment in the sun. $119M two weeks ago, $294M this past week—all while STRC stays pinned within 1% of face value. This $STRC issuance has been in tandem with a large amount of $MSTR ATM . What does this mean, and is this accretive for shareholders? Most MSTR was sold between 1.0x-1.10x mNAV. This is accretive in net asset terms, however with market cap below the value of BTC holdings, in isolation, it would be negative to BTC/share. However, Saylor is intelligently pairing the MSTR ATM with the STRC ATM. STRC was ~14% the size of MSTR issuance over this period. In BTC per fully-diluted share terms, despite selling of common with BTC below market cap value (while indeed above 1.0x in enterprise value terms), BTC per fully diluted common shares increased over the past two weeks —up 0.4% on the year. So, indeed accretive, but in my view, the bigger story is the focus on deleveraging the convertible bonds to focus on attaining "amplification" through prefs instead. If we assume constant 92K BTC for consistency, from the start of the year to today: Converts (less USD) as % of BTC: 9.67% → 9.18% Prefs (less USD) as % of BTC: 9.19% → 9.36% Strategy has flipped its outstanding convertible debt with notional prefs, which of course never come due in principal. In just one year. Why is this being done? Strategy's team has made clear they see the perpetual pref (dubbed "digital credit") as the big idea. The fact that prefs can IPO, with ATMs attached, with no maturity cliff speaks for itself. But I believe there's an additional motivation potentially: minimizing the gamma effect convertible debt has on the credit spreads of the prefs. If you correctly view the convertible bonds as debt + an equity call option, at $400 MSTR the weighted delta on the converts was approximately 73%. The market effectively viewed Strategy as having ~$2.18B of effective debt with ~$6.06B that would become equity. This is rough back-of-napkin math, but you can use Black-Scholes to input the convertible bond strikes and first put dates, you can approximate a delta for each bond. In aggregate, you get a weighted average delta. So yes, while technically $8.2B of debt has been outstanding for almost a year, the market doesn't treat this as 100% debt—it probabilistically moves with MSTR stock price. When BTC fell sharply in November and MSTR (as well as all other BTC proxies) followed, the stock price falling essentially partially 'de-equitized' the converts. A move from $400 to $150 is sort of like ~$2.5B more debt becoming senior to the prefs. The delta of the converts—their sensitivity to MSTR price—changed. This change in delta is called gamma. The point here is that it wasn't necessarily just BTC NAV itself contracting that changed the profile of the prefs in the eyes of some credit investors. It was BTC price moving MSTR price, which impacted the likelihood of conversion of the converts, which impacted the assumed senior liabilities above the prefs. With the massive purchases in recent weeks, it's clear that Strategy is diligently deleveraging the converts off the balance sheet (relatively), which means the convert gamma will have minimal—and eventually no impact on pref credit spreads. Having no convertible bonds senior to the prefs should not only improve absolute credit spreads but should diminish credit spread volatility, as the volatility of the size of the assumed senior liabilities above the prefs goes away entirely. This should make prefs like STRC even less volatile, reinforcing the strength and efficiency of the system further. So to answer the question: yes, this mix of STRC and MSTR issuance is accretive in BTC Yield terms, but I think the bigger story here is the deleveraging of the balance sheet (relatively) of convertible bonds, and it's shifting the focus to pref-style "amplification"—exactly as the MSTR team has stated. The USD reserve is another recent shift worth noting. It looks to have further dampened credit spread volatility in the prefs by quieting market concerns around dividend coverage and immediate capital raising needs. Congrats to the Strategy team on having notional prefs surpass converts in just one year. Wildly impressive.

I don't understand how, but I almost saw nothing of the drama of the last 48 hours on AVAX. Touching grass really has its good points.

Team1 Mini Grant To The Grotto ☠️🔺 We are happy to support @thegrottoL1 with a Team1 ‘Builder Mini Grant’ of $10,000. Before ever launching Team1, one of our plans was to set up a mini grant program to support community members with great ideas. In 2025 we launched a regional pilot for that program and this year we will open it up globally. First, we want to show support to some core projects and builders that are helping push Avalanche forward while bringing opportunity and excitement to the community. We started speaking with The Grotto team about this 3 weeks ago. @Wrathtank_avax, @snapss and team have done an incredible job and we appreciate the time, energy and commitment invested. Through this mini grant, we hope to help The Grotto with some artist, developer and Ava Cloud expenses. Our first mandate was to expand Avalanche's global footprint and build new regional communities through IRL meetups and events. This year we will continue to scale regionally, as well as focus on the core Avalanche community that shows up here everyday. Team1 supports builders and community members that bring opportunity, utility and energy to Avalanche 🔺 Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Is this the AVAX logo ?

@Wrathtank_avax Congrats bro

I am an Avalanche L1 blockchain founder.

We are live on mainnet after many months of development thanks to the esteem customer service of @AvaCloud and the hard work from friends of the community. A special thank you to @snapss, @xrpant (sorry about the wrapper), @ChrisFusillo, and everyone that helped contribute to getting us to this awesome achievement. A double big thank you to @coreapp for the smooth experience in launching our L1. Currently, our bridge will be going live in the next week as we have to tweak some items to make the bridge from $HERESY to native $HERESY on our @avax L1 the best experience it can be due to our low supply tokenomics. When we have our official date, we will host a launch party on @blaze_stream showing off our library of in-house games including Greg's Bad Day by @Wrathtank_avax. Our testnet will be live until the bridge opens and the gamers flood in. Thank you to everyone as we mark this huge milestone in our journey with you. Stay tuned. GGrotto.

Lmao stop shipping Wrath this is too much
