Jack Mallers, famous for filming videos in front of a giant empty walk-in closet, is spotted at BTC Prague wearing $1900 Dior ankle boots. What happened to “Closet empty, sats stacked…”? I’m blaming this on his fiance h/t @ddobservations for finding the exact boot

No, you don't get it. He does not have $1 trillion sitting in cash, it is 99% stock in his companies. To make that wealth liquid would mean selling all that stock which would swiftly destroy *both* the companies (Tesla, SpaceX, others) and the wealth. If he sold it all, he'd end up with maybe $100b max, several hundred thousand people would be out of work, the companies ruined and many of their suppliers also ruined. Okay, but now Elon has $100b in cash, and can "solve the world's problems". $100b divided by the world's 8 billion people is $12 If you were in charge, several of the most innovative industrial companies in the world would be destroyed, hundreds of thousands out of work, and space would again close to human civilization for another generation. But everyone on earth could have one nice meal and you could revel in your altruism.

I have no dry powder left. Thought about taking out a loan, but I hate leverage. That’s how people lose their Bitcoin. Now I’m staring at my $10K emergency fund wondering if a 50% drawdown is actually an emergency. Part of me says protect the cash. Part of me says Bitcoin at $60K is the emergency. Be honest… Are you touching your emergency fund to buy Bitcoin here, or am I completely out of line?

Bought a little $BTC today. This bottom will take 4-6 months to form imo, and I’ll continue to scale in for the next move up, but it’s good practice to buy when there’s so much blood in the water. Bottom prediction: $49k

The happiest Bitcoin people I know own between 2 and 6 BTC. Enough to feel part of something. Not enough to destroy their personality. Everyone above 10 BTC turns into a different person. Everyone above 100 becomes unrecognizable (unbearable?) There's a wealth threshold where money stops improving life and starts consuming it.

ZCASH finished. I always know what will happen, even if I seem early…you know how? I’m not the smartest guy, I just follow the patterns, and base it off values, greed and sin. Sorry ZEC
Peter B@realpeteyb123

The biggest rugpull will be on ZEC and km saying this as someone that owns it. I’ve lost respect for many of the influencers who I respected that have taken part in this inflated and coordinated pump. Everyone it seems is a slave to getting richer. Disheartening,

HERE IS SOMETHING MOST HAVE MISSED! Ad agencies stopped negotiating with individual publishers and most still haven’t noticed. It used to be a quarterly partnership call. Now it is one call a year with one network to lock in the annual budget. If you are not at that table, you are invisible to the big spenders. The name of the game is distribution. That’s it. The reason is simple math. An agency would rather do one deal with a billion-user network than 100 deals with 100 publishers at 5M users each. So the network commands $15-30+ CPM and the standalone publisher gets commodity rates of $2-5. Same quality content, same engaged audience, and the price is 6x apart. That gap has nothing to do with your journalism and everything to do with your scale. The publishers who understand this are joining forces now, while they still have leverage to set their own terms. The window to consolidate on your terms instead of someone else's is closing fast, and AI is going to 10x the speed of this trajectory.

I talked to a CTO last week who wanted to build a personalization engine for his readers. Smart guy, good idea. Instead, he spent the entire quarter managing vendor integrations and internal opinions. Here is why: His company runs WordPress plus 17 separate vendors. Ad server, yield, paywall, analytics, community, CDN, payments. 17 logins, 17 APIs, 17 support queues. Somewhere north of $2M a year just to keep it stitched together. His best engineer became a vendor manager. Every hour he spends reconciling two systems that were never built to talk is an hour he is not spending on the product. The companies pulling ahead in media right now freed their engineers to build. All on a single platform and database. This is the hidden tax on premium publishers. Nobody puts it on the P&L, yet it quietly eats the business.

6/ The media CEOs who figures this out first wins the next decade. The ones who stay fragmented will be margin-squeezed out of existence.

5/ The pattern repeats every 3-4 years: 1990s: Digital publishing → Rivals.com 2000s: Subscriptions → Scout.com 2010s: Streaming → Maven/Arena (NYSE) 2020s: DeFi + AI → ? New tech arrives. Platform wins. Publishers consolidate. Market moves.
