🧵 1/ As of 22 Nov 2024, Swift has now updated it's global messaging standard ISO 20022 to enable digital asset integration. @chainlink's CCIP is now formally integrated, enabling secure oracle bridging between blockchain & real-world data, but what does this all mean?

You get rich by betting on things other people are wrong about. Because most "good" investments have their "goodness" priced into them, making them "mediocre" or "bad" investments in reality. The key is to find something that looks bad but is actually good. Which means you gotta be willing to have people tell you why you're dumb (then wait). Then get called lucky. Then do it a few more times. Then have people say you're finally good. But by the time they say you're good it already stopped mattering to you what they thought because why would you respect someone's judgment who was so repeatedly bad? They now only say you're good because everyone else does and not because they could ever make up their minds on their own.

“The distance between deciding and doing is the single most reliable predictor of whether your life will be extraordinary or ordinary.” These three paragraphs will change your life:

This chart won’t leave my mind. If this trend continues... We’re heading into the biggest altseason in crypto history.

The 4 year cycle is perhaps the single most widely held belief in crypto. If they're wrong, hooo boy that's a setup for a lot of people to be offside. Add in rate cuts, stimmies, QT ending (*possible* QE starting), new Fed chair, etc and the setup is quite juicy.

As promised here's a deep dive into the @Chainlink Runtime Environment!

1/ Most onchain lending systems liquidate you instantly the moment your collateral dips below a price. One sharp candle and your entire position is gone. No time to react. No time to adjust. Llamalend works differently. news.curve.finance/liquidati…

My view has not changed since 2019. In 2019 btc market cap was $100B ($5k btc). This chart said btc mcap would grow to $1T ($50k btc) in 2020-2024 halving period (blue arrow). It did. The same chart shows $10T mcap / $500k btc for 2028 (red arrow). That is still my view.

You can tickle the belly of the universe to roll over and give you what you want if you only learn one thing: to never settle until you get what you want. Every ounce of it. And nothing less. The world rewards the psychopaths who never settle, never give in, and never give up.

Chainlink just solved privacy...for the entire industry. Every public chain with no privacy is now a privacy-enabled chain via Chainlink's new Confidential Compute, built on top of Chainlink Runtime Environment. Let me repeat it because it sounds insane: Every public chain is now a privacy chain when you build your workflows on top of Chainlink Runtime Enviroment.

Tom clearly has a huge bag of $LINK

"Ripple is a goofy business. For more than a decade now, the company has held vast quantities of magic beans known as XRP, which it dumps onto the market at regular intervals. It’s not clear why anyone needs these magic beans, but people buy them anyway, and that has made Ripple very rich—so rich that this week it casually spent $1 billion to buy a treasury management company called GTreasury. The question is how much longer Ripple can keep its magic bean factory humming." aol.com/finance/ripple-branc…

Ain't this guy got work to do? Who TF got this much spare time?

SBF is under going a coordinated and paid image to try and get a pardon and rewrite history. Let’s be clear on a few things: 1) Yes, FTX *was* insolvent. It could not meet creditor deposits because it had taken peoples money and without them knowing, illegally invested it into private startups. The value of that paper equity is irrelevant. When you cannot meet depositor obligations, you are insolvent. 2) Even if you WEREN’T insolvent, it was still a crime. If someone stole your wallet with $10, bet the money in it on lotto tickets, and then paid you back $10 they still stole. It does not negate the crime. FTX’s own ToS said deposits were at all times the property of depositors and no rights were assigned elsewhere. Investing those funds elsewhere was theft. Lying about it was fraud. Banks get to invest deposits because it’s part of the agreements they have and why they have regulated oversight and standards. FTX did not have that, and stole user funds to invest - something SBF has no remorse about. It does not matter that some of those investments got lucky and resulted in money being paid back. It does not negate the theft. So yes - you were insolvent and lawyers getting you to sign bankruptcy papers was the right choice. Yes, the bankruptcy lawyers charged a lot out of the estate for such a complex case and that sucks for creditors - but it does NOT in anyway make SBF innocent. The fact that he wants to rewrite history shows how he thinks he did no wrong. He has no remorse. He thinks he was right. He would do it again. He belongs behind bars.

For regulatory reasons, SERGEY NAZAROV is not allowed to mention price action, not even once. "Should be fun" is his way of indirectly saying we're about to GOD CANDLE into SMARTCON. When SERGEY says get ready you better GET READY. $LINK
