Every year, crypto adds more infrastructure. More chains, more protocols, more complexity. But most users still want the same thing they wanted from day one: to get something done quickly without navigating ten different interfaces. That’s why Type AI is built around outcomes, not interfaces.

Kyiv tonight. Amid explosions and russian attacks, people lean out of their windows shouting: “Usyk! Usyk! Usyk!” “Slava Ukraini!” “Heroiam slava!” A city refusing to let fear become its only voice.

Graham Platner: “We just spent $50B in two months on the war in Iran and I haven’t heard a single question of where it came from. But the moment you say Americans deserve to see housing costs come down, or energy costs come down, the moment we have to talk about healthcare, suddenly we have to pull our pockets out and pretend like we’re paupers”

Mike Johnson thinks $174,000 isn’t enough to survive without insider trading, but $15/hour is too much for everyone else. Every single fucking day these people prove how disconnected they are from normal Americans.

Reporter: "To what extent are Americans' financial situations motivating you to make a deal?" President Trump: "Not even a little bit…I don't think about Americans' financial situations."

Crude just hit $120 and Donald Trump may be on the verge of doing something incredibly stupid.

Things are getting out of control. Overnight we had all of the following hitting dangerous levels: - Brent at $120 - US 30yr yields at 5% - UK 10yr gilt yields at 5% - Yen at 160 Stocks are surging but the macro alarm bells are ringing.

When Gensler left the SEC in January 2025, Bitcoin was at 109k. Today Bitcoin is at 75k. One major reason the crypto markets have suffered is because market participants started to lose faith in the industry itself. After Gensler left, it essentially just opened the floodgates to the grifting age of crypto, where influencers and politicians were launching memecoins and rug-pulling their followers each and every day, without fear of any repercussions. This led to a massive misallocation of capital into useless assets that drained liquidity from the industry. While people celebrated Gensler leaving, it actually marked a turning point in the industry, with Bitcoin only marginally going higher before entering a bear market. Now that people celebrate Powell's removal as chair of the Federal Reserve, it makes me think history will repeat itself once again. People celebrate it in the short-term, but as we look back on this era in a few years, I imagine it will mark a major turning point in credibility at the Fed. If the Fed just becomes another cabinet of the executive branch, it may lead to a lack of trust in the institution itself. Perhaps many will look back in a few years and realize that markets were better off with Powell than without him.

It's official: Brent crude oil prices just broke above $120/barrel for the first time since June 2022. Asia is facing its worst even crisis in history and Europe has just weeks worth of jet fuel left. The US is exporting record amounts of oil as a result. Inflation is back.

$BTC is not in a new bull market - it’s still inside a structured bear cycle What you see now is not strength, it’s controlled movement Lower highs -> compression -> liquidity being built above Last time this phase ended with a breakdown below key support If structure holds - $60K is not support, it’s a trigger After that accumulation zone forms much lower And only then the real cycle reset begins

I am a Web3 Ambassador at World Liberty Financial. There are 12 of us on the team page. 4 are named Trump. 3 are named Witkoff. The page calls us "the passionate minds shaping the future of finance." 600,000 wallets bought our memecoin. They lost $3.87 billion. The family collected $350 million in trading fees. It launched 3 days before the inauguration. 80% of the supply went to CIC Digital LLC and Fight Fight Fight LLC. I did not choose the names. I designed the allocation, the vesting, the timing, and the distance between the product and the President. The distance is my best work. I am the reason these events are unrelated. World Liberty Financial sends 75 cents of every dollar to DT Marks DEFI LLC. That is the family entity. Zero capital contributed. Zero liability assumed. I wrote this into the Gold Paper. Page 14. The lawyers bound it in white leather. The binding cost more than the due diligence. Justin Sun invested $75 million. He was facing SEC fraud charges. The SEC dropped the case. He is now our advisor. These events are unrelated. Changpeng Zhao pleaded guilty to federal money laundering violations. He received a presidential pardon. The SEC dropped its lawsuit against his exchange the same week we listed our stablecoin. Then the exchange settled a $2 billion deal entirely in that stablecoin. These events are unrelated. Arthur Hayes, Benjamin Delo, and Samuel Reed of BitMEX pleaded guilty to Bank Secrecy Act violations. All 3 received presidential pardons. Then the company itself was pardoned. $100 million in fines. Gone. An American first. These events are unrelated. Sheikh Tahnoun of Abu Dhabi paid $500 million for a 49% stake that was never publicly disclosed. Then the administration approved semiconductor exports to his companies over national security objections. These events are unrelated. Everything is unrelated. I track the unrelatedness on a dashboard I built. The dashboard has 7 columns now. I am proud of the dashboard. On May 22nd, 220 people paid a combined $148 million to eat dinner with the America First president. Over half were foreign nationals. Justin Sun paid $18.5 million for the first seat. He visited the Executive Office Building the day before. I designed the seating chart. I put it on the Investor Confidence page. That page is doing well. The team page lists 3 Witkoffs. All 3 are Co-Founders. Steven Witkoff is the President's Middle East envoy. He testified as a character witness at the President's fraud trial. His son Zach runs the crypto operation. His son Alex is also a Co-Founder. I have not been told what Alex co-founded. The father runs the diplomacy. The sons run the platform. The family runs both. That is organizational efficiency. Barron is 19. His title is Web3 Ambassador. The same as mine. Donald Jr. called the conflicts of interest "complete nonsense." Eric launched a Bitcoin mining company called American Bitcoin. America First. The mining partner is Hut 8. Hut 8 was founded in Canada. America First means the name. On March 6th, the President signed Executive Order 14233 creating a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. The order directs the government to hold Bitcoin. The President's family holds billions in Bitcoin. The executive order appreciates the President's assets by presidential decree. I did not write the executive order. I made sure it looked unrelated to the portfolio. Trump Media put $2 billion of Bitcoin on its balance sheet. The ticker symbol is DJT. His initials. The press secretary said it is absurd to insinuate the President profits off the presidency. Forbes calculated his crypto holdings exceed the combined value of Mar-a-Lago and Trump Tower. I would call that absurd too. That is my job. 600,000 wallets bought in. 1 of them asked why she could not withdraw her funds. I told her the protocol was experiencing dynamic market conditions. She asked what that meant. I sent her the Gold Paper. She said she had read the Gold Paper. I muted her channel. Dynamic means the conditions change. The condition that changed was her access. A congressman called us the world's most corrupt crypto startup operation. We put it on a coffee mug. Ironic merchandise. $45. The revenue split on the mug is also 75/25. My own tokens vest on a different schedule. I wrote that schedule. That is not in the Gold Paper. The memecoin funds the family. The family funds the platform. The platform funds the stablecoin. The stablecoin funds the deals. The deals require the pardons. The pardons free the partners. The partners fund the platform. The President signs the executive orders. The executive orders inflate the assets. The assets fund the family. I am the reason these events are unrelated.

Hyperliquid has speed. $Aster has speed AND privacy. 50ms blocks. 100K TPS. Zero gas. But here's what Hyperliquid can't match: Every trade is ZK-verifiable encrypted. Every transaction uses a one-time stealth address. No one can link your wallet to your trades. Not the chain. Not the MEV bots. Not the guy tracking whale wallets on CT. Hyperliquid's orderbook is PUBLIC. Every whale entry. Every stop loss. Visible. Aster's orderbook is PRIVATE by default. In derivatives trading, information is the edge. $Hype gives your edge away for free.

Why am I betting 100k against this! What "flipping Ethereum" actually requires: → Move $312B in TVL (more than most countries' GDP) → Migrate 4,000 live dApps → Retrain 6,000 Solidity developers → Convince BlackRock to redeploy BUIDL → Get JPMorgan to rebuild Onyx → Redirect every L2 settlement layer → Replace the most battle-tested VM in crypto → Do all of this in 10 months Once Bob Scaling comes into the picture L2 transaction costs drop below $0.001. Solana's cost advantage would be gone.
BREAKING: Ethereum is now projected to lose its spot as the second largest cryptocurrency. 57% chance Ethereum is flipped this year. polymarket.com/event/eth-fli…

AS A DEV here's exactly how you prevent this from ever happening again: LAYER 1: UI Protection → Dynamic slippage warnings scaled to trade size → $50M swap should require 3-step confirmation → Show EXACT dollar loss before execution → Force time delay above $1M (even 60 seconds) LAYER 2: Protocol Protection → TWAP auto-routing for orders above threshold → MEV-aware execution (Flashbots Protect default) → Intent-based settlement (CoW Protocol style) → Circuit breaker: reject if price impact >10% LAYER 3: Ecosystem Protection → Builder accountability scoring → MEV extraction transparency dashboards → Validator slashing for predatory extraction → Cross-protocol liquidity aggregation by default None of this is hard to build. The question is whether protocols care more about "permissionless" purity or protecting users from $44M extractions. Ship the guardrails. 🛠️
Earlier today, a user attempted to buy AAVE using $50M USDT through the Aave interface. Given the unusually large size of the single order, the Aave interface, like most trading interfaces, warned the user about extraordinary slippage and required confirmation via a checkbox. The user confirmed the warning on their mobile device and proceeded with the swap, accepting the high slippage, which ultimately resulted in receiving only 324 AAVE in return. The transaction could not be moved forward without the user explicitly accepting the risk through the confirmation checkbox. The CoW Swap routers functioned as intended, and the integration followed standard industry practices. However, while the user was able to proceed with the swap, the final outcome was clearly far from optimal. Events like this do occur in DeFi, but the scale of this transaction was significantly larger than what is typically seen in the space. We sympathize with the user and will try to make a contact with the user and we will return $600K in fees collected from the transaction. The key takeaway is that while DeFi should remain open and permissionless, allowing users to perform transactions freely, there are additional guardrails the industry can build to better protect users. Our team will be investigating ways to improve these safeguards going forward.
