This is insane - OpenClaw is becoming the most powerful AI tool for crypto traders. Very soon, you'll be able to automate your ENTIRE trading process with @grvt_io x OpenClaw agents. Use AI to execute trades, manage your portfolio, deploy agent skills autonomously, and way more. If you're not using AI in your trading, you're falling behind fast.

@Usoppu These are inside jobs bro. There is no way defi has been around this long and these companies keep getting hacked and losing everything. Makes zero sense.

The constant wave of exploits we're seeing now is becoming truly exhausting. To be honest, I'm disgusted. My $5000 USDC+ position on reflectmoney is now worth almost nothing because of their exposure to the Drift hack. ​It's a heartbreaking reality for the DeFi space. We're no longer just dealing with simple code bugs - we're seeing highly sophisticated, coordinated attacks that create massive ripple effects. When a foundational protocol gets hit, it wipes out smaller projects and innocent users who didn't even realize they had that secondary exposure. ​I'm fortunate that this won't affect me much at all as this is a very tiny % of my entire DeFi portfolio, but that isn't by accident. I've worked hard to build a specific plan designed to minimize losses in situations exactly like this. By strictly diversifying my entire stable portfolio across dozens of different protocols, I've essentially insured myself against the "house of cards" effect. The yield that I get out of my entire portfolio can cover this back in just few months. ​But most people aren't positioned to manage risk this way, and seeing "stable" assets vanish is exactly what drives both retail and web3 users away for good. It's sad to see the space I love struggle with this level of fragility, and it's a reminder that in DeFi, your risk management plan is just as important as the yield and airdrop you're chasing.

my $5000 worth of stablecoin is now worth basically nothing 🥲

I will publicly shame those responsible for the losses from the Drift hack for as long as I’m here. These guys just hide and wait for everyone to forget, then move on with their millions from team allocations and launch new projects. Not on my watch

@metadev5 This was an inside job. Most (if not all) of these protocols are scams. All vapor ware to steal your money.

Drift's founders haven't tweeted in over a week. $280M gone. > Thousands of users with no answers. > The people who were at every conference calling this "the Hyperliquid of Solana" completely silent. > No apology. No accountability. No plan. So it was team ? Make it make sense. @solana @toly @DriftProtocol @vibhu @davijlu @cindyleowtt

Glad someone with a bigger microphone than me is calling this out. I've been screaming about this for months. Society is cooked. Even at baseline functionality. AI 5 years from now will greatly surpass what we have now. That's why I preach and will continue to preach self reliance and leveraging these tools to generate income to sustain yourself as these things shift. Follow me to see the journey and copy what I'm doing. But don't say I didn't warn you.

🚨RESEARCHERS JUST MATHEMATICALLY PROVED THAT AI LAYOFFS WILL DESTROY THE ECONOMY.. AND EVERY CEO ALREADY KNOWS IT.. BUT NONE OF THEM CAN STOP.. Two researchers from UPenn and Boston University just published a paper called "The AI Layoff Trap".. They proved something terrifying.. Every company replacing workers with AI is also firing its own customers.. Every laid-off employee is someone who used to spend money.. When enough people lose their jobs.. Nobody can afford to buy anything.. And the companies that fired everyone go bankrupt selling products to an economy with no purchasing power.. Every CEO can see this coming.. The math is obvious.. Fire workers.. Lose customers.. Lose revenue.. Collapse.. But here's the trap.. No company can afford to stop.. If you don't automate.. Your competitor will.. They cut costs.. Undercut your prices.. Steal your market share.. And you die anyway.. So every company automates.. Knowing it's collectively suicidal.. Because the alternative is dying alone while everyone else survives.. It's a Prisoner's Dilemma.. And the researchers proved it mathematically.. The numbers are already stacking up.. Block cut nearly half its 10,000 employees this year.. CEO Jack Dorsey said AI made those roles unnecessary and that "within the next year, the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion".. Salesforce replaced 4,000 customer support agents with AI.. Goldman Sachs deployed an AI coder that lets one senior engineer do the work of a five-person team.. Over 100,000 tech workers were laid off in 2025 alone.. AI was cited as the primary driver in more than half the cases.. 80% of US workers hold jobs with tasks susceptible to AI automation.. And here's what should scare policymakers.. The researchers tested every proposed solution.. Universal Basic Income.. Doesn't fix it.. It raises living standards but doesn't change a single company's incentive to automate.. Capital income taxes.. Don't fix it.. They change profit levels but not the per-task decision to replace a human.. Worker equity and profit sharing.. Narrows the gap but can't close it.. Collective bargaining.. Can't fix it.. Because automating is a dominant strategy.. No voluntary agreement between companies is self-enforcing.. Only one thing works.. A Pigouvian automation tax.. A per-task charge that forces every company to pay for the demand it destroys when it fires a worker.. The researchers call it a "Red Queen effect".. Better AI doesn't solve the problem.. It makes it worse.. Because every company sees a bigger market share gain from automating faster than rivals.. But at the end.. Everyone automates equally.. The gains cancel out.. And the only thing left is more destroyed demand.. The paper's conclusion is devastating.. This isn't a transfer from workers to company owners.. Both sides lose.. Workers lose their income.. Companies lose their customers.. It's a deadweight loss that harms everyone.. And no market force can break the cycle.. The AI layoff trap isn't a prediction.. It's already happening.. And the math says it won't stop on its own.

Remember how back in 2022-2023 there were a lot of crypto influencers who went completely crazy and people tuned in because they wanted to watch the drama/train wreck? Then over time people stopped caring about what they had to say, so in order to become relevant again, they would say increasingly ridiculous things to try and get the spotlight back on themselves? But as time went on, their followers dried up and no one cared anymore about their opinion. The shitcoins they shilled no longer moved on their tweets/videos because people realized they were being gaslit about everything. The same thing will likely happen on a larger scale now. People sit around waiting for the next "TACO trade" as markets normally rally on the news. After concessions are made, markets go back to "normal" as people are confident that the uncertainty is over with. But then a few weeks later, it all comes back again. It gets exhausting for the market. Eventually, this dynamic will change, and no amount of flip-flopping and erratic behavior will get market participants to trust that the markets are a safe place to keep their money. We have not yet reached that inflection point, but it is likely something that is coming. The TACO trade has worked for a while, but it will eventually fail. And when it does, it will be due to market participants having no faith that what they are being told is the truth.

This market is obviously BS. It doesn’t even feel price-driven anymore, just headline-driven chaos. And the way moves happen, it sure looks like some people know what’s coming before everyone else. The rest of us either get lucky, get trapped, or get stopped out in the noise. Insane environment.

$UNH is up 10% after CMS finalized its 2027 Medicare Advantage & Part D payment policies including a 2.5% average rate increase worth more than $13B in added MA payments. CMS also kept 2024 MA risk model while tightening how chart-review diagnoses count toward 2027 risk scores.

Unpopular opinion about passive income. Most people who want it aren't actually building it. They're researching it. There's a difference between knowing how DeFi liquidity pools work and having $5,000 in one. Between understanding dividend ETFs and actually owning shares that pay you monthly. Information is free. Deployment is the hard part. That's the gap most people never close

The biggest mental hurdle in real estate isn't the math—it is the phantom loss. Last week a repair bill wiped out my monthly cash flow. On paper, it looks like a "zero" month. But the tenant still paid the mortgage. I had to remind myself that even when the bank account doesn't grow, the balance sheet does. The tenant is buying the asset for me every 30 days, even when I'm paying for a plumber. It is a weird setup where you can "lose" for a month but still be closer to the finish line than you were 30 days ago. #RealEstate

Most people are trapped in the AI fear loop. Will it take my job? Am I safe? The honest answer is both yes and no. The people who do best from here will be the ones who build skills they can rely on if their role gets disrupted, and learn how to use AI to create leverage for themselves. Getting out of the system is one thing. Knowing how to survive once it stops feeding you is another. I’m building income for the future, in public, as I figure it out. Follow along. #FutureOfWork #IncomeStreams

Oil markets did something strange last week. $580M in contracts traded in under 60 seconds, exactly 15 minutes before the Iran news hit the wires. I mentioned this in the latest issue, but the timing is what stays with me. If you can't win on being the first to know, you have to win on being the one who doesn't have to care. My timeline isn't 60 seconds. It is 10 years. Yield makes the insider games irrelevant because I am not trading the headline. I am stacking the asset. $CL_F $USO #OOTT

Camus@newstart_2024·
Truth is now considered a right-wing conspiracy. That’s the chilling line from Melanie Phillips that stopped me in my tracks. She explains how we’ve reached a point where simply stating observable reality — whether it’s basic biology defining a woman or pushing back against blanket accusations that all white people are inherently bad — gets you branded as evil. Not wrong. Evil. Therefore you must be silenced, cancelled, or erased. No debate. No evidence allowed. She calls it cultural totalitarianism: a Manichean worldview where one ideology claims a monopoly on goodness, progress, and reason itself. Dissent isn’t argued with — it’s treated as a moral threat that has to be removed. The deepest irony? In an era that smugly ditched religion in the name of superior rationality, we’ve ended up rejecting reason, evidence, and open inquiry altogether. We’re so “rational” we’ve dispensed with the very tools of rationality. It doesn’t add up. Her take has me wondering how we got here — and how quickly disagreement turned into moral excommunication. Anyone else seeing this pattern play out in conversations lately? Where have you felt truth itself become off-limits?
