@MetamateDaz @grok what % of taxes are paid by the top 5% vs the bottom half of the country?

Billionaires should not exist. Anything over $1 Billion should be taxed at 100% and go towards funding public services. There is no reason for a single person to have that much money or power.

@KyleSamani There should be a propAMM meetup

Crypto friends, who is in Miami for Accelerate/Consensus and wants to catch up?

@Austin_Federa @toly Canada seems to be doing fine haha But I think it’s just US culture that is the main problem. You can go to other countries where opiates are OTC for example but it’s only US that has big drug problems even when they are rx only

@toly Imo the current status quo in the US is the worst of all decriminalization outcomes.

The disastrous results of weed legalization has made me rethink a number of libertarian positions — specifically around the intersection of personal responsibility and addictive substances.

@OfficialJoelF Good luck trying to leave your home around rush hour I guess

Anantara Miami Resort & Residences announced for 3601 Biscayne Blvd in Edgewater. This space was previously occupied by a Shell gas station. The tower will be 50 stories (650 ft) tall with 100 private branded residences, 120 resort residences and 50 hotel suites. It's expected to open in 2030 The brand’s resorts in Thailand were featured in White Lotus season 3. This is their first US property.

@0xSoju "But above all else, im curious to see if peptides can leverage long-tail capital formation on @MeteoraAG"

Well this tweet blew up. I'm bullish peptides because I have a variety of health problems: Anxiety, Rashes (urticaria), breathing difficulties, sleep is bad, so extremely curious about what can help. Mega-bullish the trend of wellness and people taking their own health into their own hands -> especially as AI allows us to leverage it more. But above all else, im curious to see if peptides can leverage long-tail capital formation on @MeteoraAG

@alessandrod @kiran1 Yeah I can name a couple things it can't solve. Once you get extremely deep into niche financial or onchain territory there are gaps

@kiran1 1000 SOL I can give you something codex can’t solve?

I don’t think I have a seen a single issue the latest Codex/Claude models can’t eat through. Software is actually solved The luddites will say “oh it’s just auto complete”. What do you think your brain is doing

@signalapp @404mediaco We need this for ios 18 though

We are very happy that today Apple issued a patch and a security advisory. This comes following @404mediaco reporting that the FBI accessed Signal message notification content via iOS despite the app being deleted. Apple’s advisory confirmed that the bugs that allowed this to happen have been fixed in the latest iOS release. You can read more here: support.apple.com/en-us/127002 Note that no action is needed for this fix to protect Signal users on iOS. Once you install the patch, all inadvertently-preserved notifications will be deleted and no forthcoming notifications will be preserved for deleted applications. We’re grateful to Apple for the quick action here, and for understanding and acting on the stakes of this kind of issue. It takes an ecosystem to preserve the fundamental human right to private communication.

@guneysol any discount for helius pro users?

@Austin_Federa @Jeffreyw5000 SBF stole from users, then lawyers tried to steal what was left behind whilst being paid to protect the users generational skem

@Jeffreyw5000 The bankruptcy proceedings and insider dealing was almost as big a fraud as FTX itself.

Who was the first investor in Cursor? The GOAT investor SBF of course. Alameda Research invested $200k to take half of the company’s $400k pre-seed in 2022. Its stake was sold off in FTX bankruptcy proceedings in 2023 for………$200k.

@unusual_whales can you still make fun of the US and other religions though?

The United States will ban individuals accused of promoting antisemitism from attending the 2026 FIFA World Cup, U.S. antisemitism envoy Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun has announced.

If you self funded a perps dex team maybe using percolator or some OSS as the base, and did a non dilutive airdrop like HL there could be a decent chance If software is a constant, then the variables to succeed would be no insider allocations/airdrop/fair launch/buybacks bootstrap liquidity with pAMMs

@RyanWatkins_ @AustinBarack Your stance is literally short other people shipping software. In the age of AI

*Why your favorite TradFi firm launching perps won’t kill Hyperliquid* Let’s establish this upfront. Perps are not just a simple payoff formula. They require a fundamental redesign of the exchange. The magic is in vertically integrating matching, margin, liquidation, and settlement into one continuous risk engine. This provides the foundation for shared collateral pools, tight liquidation loops, 24/7 funding mechanisms, and 20-50x leverage. The resulting UX and capital efficiency is why perps decisively beat out dated futures and options products within crypto. You can’t just “list perps” as if it were any other derivative. You have to reproduce the architecture. Coinbase has already demonstrated this empirically with their lackluster CFTC-regulated “perps” product despite plenty of talent and dollars thrown at it. As currently designed, they’re long-dated futures with 5-year expiries, 3-10x leverage depending on the contract, and funding that only settles twice daily. Compare that to unregulated offshore venues like Binance or blockchains like Hyperliquid and it’s obvious why the product has underwhelmed. If Coinbase can’t figure it out, why should Kalshi or Polymarket, which have worse distribution for this product? If Coinbase as the most crypto-native regulated U.S. venue can’t deliver a compelling product, why should CME or ICE? The reality is that U.S. regulated incumbents have been sidelined from truly competing. Dodd-Frank and the Commodities Exchange Act mandate centralized clearing, and separation between the different layers of the trading stack. This fragmentation structurally prevents the vertical integration necessary for real perps to work. And even if they didn’t, incumbents would still likely have regulatory limits on the amount of leverage they can offer to retail. Fixing all this requires a full regulatory overhaul and infrastructure rebuild. HOOD and IBKR pumping out whatever subpar product their underlying exchange lists wouldn’t change the problem. But regulation can change right? At a conference in March, CFTC Chairman Michael Selig suggested that the agency would allow perps for crypto soon. While CME and ICE may not have the right infrastructure in place to flip on perps anytime soon, Coinbase, Kalshi, and Polymarket could in theory offer real perps on crypto within weeks of formal guidance dropping. In fact, it is my full expectation that both Kalshi and Polymarket's upcoming perps products will be real perps with no expiry, unlike what Coinbase offers. What then would be the advantage of decentralized venues like Hyperliquid if everyone was now on a more level playing field? Well for one U.S. guidance would likely only be for crypto perps, not the equity or commodity perps which are the fastest growing segment of the market. They also might not remove limits on retail leverage. But let’s just ignore these qualifications for now and assume that there’s simultaneously 1) no regulatory advantage for offshore venues anymore and 2) decentralized venues still cannot legally offer perps to U.S. retail users (despite the CFTC also working towards creating a pathway for this). There’s a handful of long-term advantages decentralized venues like Hyperliquid have. 1) DEXs are structurally cheaper as they do not maintain fiat banking rails, large compliance teams, regional subsidiaries, customer support, or extensive custody and treasury operations 2) DEXs are permissionless, which provides significant scaling advantages over incumbents as anyone can launch and distribute new markets, creating a virtuous utility-and-distribution flywheel 3) DEXs are intrinsically global, enabling them to reach anyone on Earth so long as they have an internet connection 4) DEXs offer users substantially lower counterparty risk as they are real-time auditable and enable users to self custody their funds And none of this is to mention the bigger picture concept that Hyperliquid isn’t just a perps venue anymore. Rather it’s a full-fledged platform where traders soon be able to cross-margin perps, options, predictions, and tokenized equities in a unified experience. Incorporating all of this into a single risk engine takes years of iteration and refinement, and a baseline level of liquidity across all markets. x.com/RyanWatkins_/s… With all this in mind, who do you think is best positioned to execute on this product? Is it really the regulatorily constrained, technologically disadvantaged, incumbents that have zero experience building this product? Or is it the pioneering team with breakneck product velocity and years of experience both trading and building these products? It’s not wrong to worry about competition. I do expect TradFi firms will offer decent products over the coming quarters and help grow the market. But eventually decentralized venues will be made legal in the U.S. too and their superiority will be proven over time. So the big question in my mind is not whether TradFi will win, it’s whether another blockchain like Solana, Lighter, or Base builds a better product, or if Hyperliquid will stay the king. Time will tell.

@Crypto_McKenna What a great last name lol

Recently an IDF soldier desecrated a statue of the crucified Jesus Christ in Lebanon of which there are some of us who do not take kindly to this. I will let Cardinal Pizzaballa and his letter addressing the matter speak for me.

Tried this for a few weeks and it breaks down info pretty thoroughly Highly recommend if you want to learn more about onchain analytics

@mert @Genia_XBT @LanaAI Been using this for the last month it’s really good. Well done When I tell my guys to check out Lana it sounds a bit weird tho 😅

block explorers are dead introducing @LanaAI — an AI that lets you talk to Solana interactively - ask anything about tokens or wallets - trace transactions, flows, and histories - generate reports and CSVs - rebalance your portfolio, place trades, and more now in open beta

@0xkaladin Mostly I think it’s at a psychological level that “it couldn’t happen to me” but now it’s safe to assume it WILL happen to you unless you prioritize security

@usgoose bro i dont understand how these protocols move billions but doesnt have 24/7 contract level security

It's abundantly clear now that security must be the #1 priority for any protocol with sustained usage and $1M+ TVL. With the attack vector so large, simple audits will not be enough, need realtime threat monitoring. Ideally at the contract layer as preventive measures instead of damage control post exploit.

@m_schneider Well done ser. Remember chatting with you when this was in the idea phase 👏

@bryan_johnson I might be crazy but can’t you just workout till failure, eat protein, and have sex to achieve those goals?

Just spent over an hour with my clinical team debating which growth hormone peptide protocol to run. Still torn. Wanted to share the thinking and get your take. The goal: Increase GH and IGF-1 to support anabolism, recovery, and sleep, but also test a specific stacking hypothesis. Tirzepatide (GLP-1/GIP agonist) can elevate resting heart rate, disrupt sleep, and suppress appetite aggressively. CJC-1295 (GHRH analog) can worsen insulin resistance. The bet is that combining them cancels each other's downsides: CJC-1295's slow-wave sleep enhancement offsets tirzepatide's sleep disruption, while tirzepatide's insulin-sensitizing effects counteract CJC-1295's insulin resistance. Best of both worlds — or at least, that's the hypothesis we're testing. The two candidates: CJC-1295 with DAC: the long acting version. One injection per week, stays active for 6–8 days. This is what was used in the actual clinical trials. Raises GH 2–10x and IGF-1 1.5–3x from a single dose. Preserves GH pulsatility even under continuous stimulation. The tradeoff: if you get side effects, you're committed for a week. Harder to titrate. CJC-1295 without DAC + ipamorelin: the short-acting version paired with a selective ghrelin receptor agonist. Daily injections, pre-bed, clears in 30 minutes. Ipamorelin adds a second axis of GH release, pulse frequency via the ghrelin pathway, on top of the amplitude boost from CJC. No cortisol or prolactin elevation. This is what most clinicians prescribe and most of the peptide community uses. The tradeoff: less clinical trial data, daily injections, more anecdotal evidence base. What we're considering: Start with DAC at half dose 2.4 mg, then if well tolerated escalate 4.8 mg, weekly injection. If side effects aren't tolerable, switch to no-DAC + ipamorelin (100 mcg then 200-300 mcg daily, before bedtime). Or, Run both head to head. 2 weeks DAC, 2 weeks no-DAC + ipamorelin and compare. Tracking: GH, IGF-1, Cortisol, CGM, real time core body temperature, RHR, overnight HRV (rMSSD), IGF-1, HOMA-IR, sleep architecture, subjective recovery. The purist in us says stick with DAC; that's where the published data lives. Yet the pragmatist says no-DAC + ipamorelin is what thousands of people actually use, and testing it generates more socially relevant data.

@tushar_jain @MacroMate8 @kamino Isnt kamino swap free?

@MacroMate8 @kamino Give users a 1:1 swap from USDC to USDT without trading fees for some limited time to reduce the friction of moving over.

kamino has $180m in USDC supplied but only $7m in USDT in the main market i think it’s time to let tether whales know that solana lending markets would love more USDT happy to walk through what you can do with it
