Changpeng Zhao, ( CZ) as the Turkish crypto community, we want to ask you an open and honest question and we expect a sincere answer.
Today, more than 90% of altcoin investors around the world are in loss. But something strange happened yesterday, Even though no one sold, almost all altcoins suddenly lost up to 90% of their value.
Some even spiked down to zero for a few seconds.
How is that possible?
How can prices crash without any real selling?
Is this truly a “natural market movement,” or is there an invisible mechanism operating in the background?
What’s even more interesting is that this didn’t happen to tokens that are not listed on any exchange.
For example, the last token I purchased, @AlfTokenETH , didn’t face such a crash simply because it’s not listed on any exchange (this is just an example).
Is this just a coincidence, or are we looking at a systemic issue within exchanges?
As the Turkish crypto community, we genuinely want to know the truth.
When people’s hard earned savings and years of effort can vanish in seconds, we believe that every altcoin investor has the right to hear an honest explanation directly from you.

HRG is a new month-long residency for indie hackers this november at a beautiful villa in vietnam...
**why** are we doing this?
tl;dr this type of thing absolutely _needs_ to exist, we thought it'd be a fun experiment, and i'm stoked to get to work alongside and learn from 10 world-class indie hackers for a month 💪
more details:
• first & foremost, this sounded like a really fun experiment w/ friends :)
• we were all excited to lock in w/ zero distractions to build & learn from each other. inviting other world-class founders to join us just takes things to the next level 💯
• there absolutely needs to be more pieter levels and tony dinhs in the world, and i'm really stoked to see if our lil residency experiment can help make this a reality
• there are sooooo many resources for venture-oriented startups but way fewer legit resources for indie hackers, and i strongly believe the world would be a better place w/ more of a balance¹
there's some overlap for sure, but they're just fundamentally different playbooks, communities, and mindsets
• this residency is heavily inspired by my experience going through @hf0 in SF. @davefontenot & co have been doing this for ~6 years now, have learned a ton about what makes a world-class residency
hf0 was a seriously life changing experience for me. both the community, the vibes, working & living alongside 10 other ambitious, experienced founders for 3 months in a mansion in sf, was like nothing else i've ever experienced. and the community even post-residency has been incredibly valuable
so i talked w/ the hf0 peeps about taking everything they've learned from hf0 and doing a diff type of residency in SE asia targeted at a diff type of founder, and they've been super supportive w/ our mission. no biz model cause this is just an experiment, but if it goes well, there's obv a lot of potential options to make this type of thing more sustainable in the future
• the more indie hackers i interview from around the world for this residency, the more fucking stoked i am about how big of an opportunity this is and how hungry indie devs are for this type of community.
indie hacking can be very lonely. there's so much we can learn from each other, and no matter how successful you are in your journey, we'll always be stronger as a community than as individuals

¹ i've raised venture several times w/ 1 venture exit and 1 bootstrapped exit, and over the years i've developed strong opinions on venture vs bootstrapping.
i LOVE that there's more resources than ever before for building venture-scale startups, but esp w/ the rise in AI and how much solo founders can get done now, it's a better time than ever to consider the bootstrapping and/or indie hacking path.
i also just personally know so many talented founders who've raised venture and ended up burnt out, and imho the incentives are generally very misaligned in vc.
**the venture biz model doesn't incentivize what's best for founders**; it generally lincentivizes what's best for their LPs, and 99% of vcs focus on 10000x exits at the expense of otherwise very profitable, useful businesses.
i understand why that's the case, but imho most _founders_ would be better off thoroughly understanding the tradeoffs involved in jumping on the venture hype train versus other paths to building startups in 2025 & beyond as opposed to defaulting to putting venture on a pedastal and viewing that as the only path to success

Look at this.
Palantir, $PLTR, dropped 10% today on news of CEO Karp's plan for new $1.2 billion sale and Pentagon 8% budget cut.
Did someone know? Maybe.
Today in early AM, there was heavy activity in $PLTR put options, with traders pouring over $600,000 into the $120P contracts within a 5 minute window.
The trader's position climbed from an entry of $4 to as high as $13.6, yielding in a potential 200%+ return.
Unusual.

@DonnieDarkened @IsraelAnderson Im not arguing for any position here, but I think if I had access to the Old Testament, I could have likely written the New Testament. It could be the truth, but it could also be fan fiction.

Your interpretation that Yahweh is actually Satan is exactly what is taught in Gnostic texts.
But it all falls apart when you realize that Jesus is prophesied in the Old Testament so many times.
Christ is a fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies and He Himself acknowledges His Father is the God of the Old Testament.

I found this to be quite fascinating.
In Genesis 3:15, God prophesies that the seed of the woman, referring to Jesus, will crush the head of the serpent, while the serpent will strike his heel.
This prophecy symbolizes the ongoing battle between Jesus (representing the seed of the woman) and the seed or followers of the serpent (such as occult, new age, Luciferian, gnostic groups, etc).
However, it is possible for this prophecy to be misinterpreted, particularly by those who are still awaiting their messiah, like the religious Jewish community who view their messiah as a future political king who will bring peace to all nations and be a champion for Jerusalem.
They might interpret the reference to the serpent striking the heel as physical marks or bruises on their messiah's heels, which Donald Trump has according to his birth certificate and other sources, including himself.
Interestingly, within the "Great Awakening" movement, specifically in esoteric circles, there are suggestions that Donald Trump is somehow connected to the bloodline of Jesus Christ, interestingly enough.
Rabbi Yosef Berger, overseer of the Tomb of King David has announced that he is attempting to link Trump's genealogy to King David, which is interesting as Jesus Christ is referred to as the son of David in the New Testament.
I believe it’s very likely that the Antichrist, the counterfeit Christ, would also be seen as a descendant of the Davidic line.
The mention of Trump being compared to King David is intriguing, as many people refer to him as the modern-day King David.
It is also worth noting that Trump himself has recently made a few remarks about the importance of bloodlines, which could be hinting towards this connection.
It’s also noteworthy that Trump’s birthmarks on his heels, which are believed to be a result of bone spurs that he was born with.
This, by itself may not seem like much, but in light of the dozens of other interesting connections only gives more reason to watch this situation very closely as time progresses.

Trying to get a passport renewed in Canada is absolutely kafkaesque. Like I’ve now driven 3h to random service offices and waited hours and hours for appointment. In the end the system is down and “it’s not their fault” and no we can’t help you. Now have to restart the entire thing and do it again.
Canadians really need to demand better from gov services. All of this work to bump one column in one database and issue a new piece of paper. Let’s digitize these processes like everyone else.
