An interesting (and bullish) lens to look at the #Bitcoin halving through- At the halving, there is 1.3mm BTC (6.25%) left to mine between now and the very long tail of ~2140. Of that 1.3mm left, half of that (656k), will be mined in the next four years. 656k BTC is $42.4bn at…
The TikTok ban is a tough call. On one hand, America’s greatest threat (well, besides ourselves, which is a far greater threat than China) has undoubtedly weaponized the social media platform and is executing a sophisticated propaganda strategy that appears to be highly…

That’s interesting. One more step in a series of many more steps to come when the US govt runs your compliance department. Wonder what’s to come next? **BINANCE TRANSFERS 100% OF SAFU FUND ASSETS INTO USDC
This seems to have struck a chord. With a “lack of pretense…” comes a commensurate lack of conviction. All of a sudden your bags are really uncomfy.

Quick thought. NFA. The thing that makes right now so interesting, is that BTC is prob fine and heading higher. And the market is kinda trained at this point to equate that to Alts moving higher too. But very few market participants have any real conviction in hardly any Alts.…
What happens to all the vaporware ponzi cryptos (that no one has even the slightest degree of confidence in) if the Fed doesn't cut at all this year?

No new Post-its for the Boomers
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that a disruptive technology with a ton of potential was just a shitcoin casino.
New ATH for Bitcoin in March for the first time since November 2021. If history is any guide, the coming quarters are gonna be nuts.
Good read about a really tough situation. trib.al/LSdftLx
Remorseless. Incapable of it. Barbara Fried and Joe Bankman look what you’ve done.
Sit with it.
The cross currents on the ETH ETF right now are wild. Tons of factors and domain experts diametrically opposed to one another.
Chilling. Decentralization can undoubtedly help here, but I sincerely fear we will fail to help at all because we’re too busy punting on n-word memecoins. You’d be foolish to look at the current state of crypto and disagree.
