We buyin Tax Liens on chain while our native token is up 4-5x. It’s base season and $LFI is the strongest in terms of fundamentals and price strength. $100m please.
I aped this shitcoin at around $7m mc. Look, if they are going to start minting tokenized assets, I like the ROI of a Hail Mary to $100m MC. $Lienfi higher, please. If this was Oct 2024, this probably went to $200m by end of November.

Most people don't realize tax liens are senior to mortgages. If a homeowner defaults on their mortgage and property taxes, the mortgage lender has to clear the tax lien first to foreclose. First claim on the property. Statutory yields. ~99% redemption rate. This is the asset class we're bringing onchain.

$LFI is the first coin that's ever been interesting to my 60 year old investor friends. It literally made some of them buy crypto for the first time this week.

Was just given early access to LienFi @lienfiapp and purchased certificate #227 tied to a property in Chattahoochee, Florida. Paid roughly $270 for the lien, carrying a 6% interest rate, with an estimated additional $1,118 payout in the event of foreclosure. The entire process was seamless and secure, and the underlying property image even appears directly on the NFT in my wallet. This is actually the first tax lien I’ve ever personally purchased, and it’s easy to see how quickly this can scale. @Mleejr and the @lienfiapp team really created something special. LienFi is going to be massive. $LFI

This is freaking genius. No wonder $LFI is mooning rn. Well done @MLeeJr 🫡
Today, the first purchase of a tokenized U.S. property tax lien was completed on LienFi. A small step for the platform, but an important step toward modernizing how tax lien markets can operate onchain. Early access invites will begin rolling out in phases tomorrow.

In the past, if retail investors wanted to participate in tax lien investing, they often faced huge barriers. The emergence of LienFi has exactly opened that door. With the implementation of the Clarity Act, a large amount of capital will flow in, and LienFi precisely provides an entry point for capital that wants to participate in tax lien investing To learn more, you can view my previous tweets:x.com/cfm_sol/status/2051639… x.com/cfm_sol/status/2050633…

$LFI 5.37m dyor CA:0x3722264ab15a1dfce5a5af89e6547f7949a8aba3 okx wallet:web3.okx.com/ul/kgtE4RC?ref=… Token Narrative:This is a typical RWA project that tokenizes U.S. property tax liens and brings them on-chain for trading. A simple explanation of property tax liens: if a U.S. homeowner fails to pay property taxes for an extended period, the government sells the “right to collect the unpaid taxes” to investors. After purchasing it, investors can earn relatively high fixed interest. If the homeowner continues not to repay, the investor may eventually acquire the property through a foreclosure auction. So LienFi essentially takes what was traditionally a game for institutions and large capital, and lowers the barrier through tokenization and blockchain, allowing ordinary users to participate using stablecoins on-chain. Background: Based on posts from LienFi’s official X account, the team has experience operating U.S. property tax lien hedge funds at a relatively large scale. The developer, mleejr, is the founder and CEO of Gondola Capital, an alternative asset investment firm focused on private equity, venture capital, and U.S. property tax lien hedge funds, with a certain level of recognition in the U.S. tax lien space. According to the project’s website, the current real-time portfolio value is about $120,105, with accumulated interest of $2,305, and 2 liens already redeemed. The holdings are distributed across U.S. counties such as Miami-Dade, Mercer, and Cooke. The above reflects only my personal understanding and analysis. It does not express a bullish stance on any project and does not constitute investment advice. If you have other perspectives, feel free to discuss them in the comments.

Lien markets are in the multi trillions and never have been accessible in a decentralized (and legal) way. As someone who diamond handed Keeta from zero to literally low level financial freedom. This. Is. Obvious. Thread soon, Japan first!
Today, LienFi officially minted the first tokenized U.S. property tax lien on @base. This marks an important milestone for LienFi and the broader real-world asset ecosystem. We are proud of the work our team has done to bring one of America’s oldest yield markets onchain.

Most people sleeping on $LFI have no idea what market it’s sitting in. National property tax delinquency hit 5.1% in 2025. Up from 4.5% in 2024. 4.3 million properties in some stage of tax distress right now. ~$22B in property taxes go unpaid annually. Lien auction volume hit $5.02B in 2024, up 32% since 2021. And delinquency is accelerating. @lienfiapp launched in Florida first. Why? Florida runs bi-weekly auctions across all 67 counties. 500 to 2,000 properties per session. 18% statutory rate. Fully online. The most liquid and accessible lien market in the country. Bills in Jacksonville, Tampa, and Miami are up 48-60% since 2020. The legislature just failed to pass a budget because the property tax cut debate got gridlocked. Voters are furious. DeSantis is pushing a ballot measure. Texas is next and the picture is identical. Levies went from $73.5B in 2021 to $89.4B in 2025. Foreclosure auction volume in Q4 2025 rose 48% year over year, the highest level since 2020. Florida led the country at 176%. Texas was up 92%. Here’s what most people get wrong about this space: 98% of property owners redeem their liens before foreclosure. The investor gets paid statutory interest. The county gets its tax revenue. The homeowner keeps their property. And when foreclosures do occur, auctions generated $57,000 in average surplus funds returned to homeowners in 2025. 77% of those properties were resold to owner occupants. The capital fills a gap that local governments depend on. What LienFi is doing is opening that system to people who’ve never had access. It’s been locked behind institutional minimums, accredited investor requirements, and operational complexity that kept ordinary people out. The team building it is led by @MLeeJr co-founder of Gondola Partners, one of the only dedicated property tax lien investment firms in the country with institutional distribution. Gondola’s Tax Lien Fund is available through Schwab, Fidelity, Goldman Sachs, and Pershing. He’s now bringing that same operation onchain. Starting with Florida. Texas is next. Yesterday LienFi minted the first tokenized US property tax lien on Base. @jessepollak echoed the sentiment “bring every financial instrument onchain.” $5M market cap. We’re so early.

Predicted 60 years ago The Brain Center at Whipple's The Twilight Zone: Season 5, Episode 33
🚨BREAKING: Two researchers from UPenn and Boston University just published a paper that should be uncomfortable reading for every CEO automating their workforce right now. The argument is straightforward. Every company replacing workers with AI is also eliminating its own future customers. Laid off workers stop spending. Enough of them stop spending and nobody can afford to buy anything. The companies that fired everyone end up selling into an economy with no purchasing power left. Every executive can see this. The math is not complicated. But here is why nobody stops. If you do not automate, your competitor does. They cut costs, lower prices, take your market share, and you collapse anyway. So every company automates knowing it is collectively destructive because the alternative is dying alone while everyone else survives. The researchers proved this is a Prisoner's Dilemma playing out in real time. The numbers are already moving. Block cut nearly half its 10,000 employees this year. Jack Dorsey said AI made those roles unnecessary and that within the next year the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion. Salesforce replaced 4,000 customer support agents with AI. Goldman Sachs deployed a coding tool that lets one engineer do the work of five. Over 100,000 tech workers were laid off in 2025 and AI was cited as the primary driver in more than half those cases. 80% of US workers hold jobs with tasks susceptible to AI automation. The researchers tested every proposed solution. Universal basic income does not change a single company's incentive to automate. Capital income taxes adjust profit levels but not the per-task decision to replace a human. Collective bargaining cannot hold because automating is always the dominant strategy. They also identified what they call a Red Queen effect. Better AI does not solve the problem, it accelerates it. Every company chases faster automation to gain market share over rivals but at the end everyone has automated equally, the gains cancel out, and the only thing left is more destroyed demand. The one thing the math says could work is a Pigouvian automation tax. A per-task charge that forces companies to account for the demand they destroy each time they replace a worker. The conclusion is that this is not a transfer of wealth from workers to owners. Both sides lose. Workers lose income. Companies lose customers. It is a deadweight loss with no market mechanism to stop it on its own. (Link in the comment)

Introducing USVC - a single basket of high-growth venture capital, for everyone. No accreditation required, SEC-registered, and a very low $500 minimum. Includes OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, Sierra, Crusoe, Legora, and Vercel. As USVC adds more companies, investors will own a piece of that too. Liquidity typically comes when companies exit, but we’re aiming to let investors redeem up to 5% of the fund every quarter. This isn’t guaranteed, but if we can make it work, you won’t be locked up like in a traditional venture fund. It runs on AngelList, which already supports $125 billion of investor capital. And I’ve joined USVC as the Chairman of its Investment Committee. — Go back to the 1500s, you set sail for the new world to find tons of gold - that was adventure capital. Early-stage technology is the modern version. It says we are going to create something new, and it’s risky. It’s daring. But ordinary people can’t invest until it’s old, until it’s no longer interesting, until everybody has access to it. By the time a stock IPOs, most of the alpha is gone. The adventure is gone. Public market investors are literally last in line. This problem has become farcical in the last decade. Startups are reaching trillion dollar valuations in the private markets while ordinary investors have their noses up to the glass, wondering when they’ll be let in. Investing in private markets isn’t easy. You need feet on the ground. You need judgment built over years. Most people don’t have the patience to wait ten or twenty years for an investment to come to fruition. But there is no more productive, harder-working way to deploy a dollar than in true venture capital. USVC enables you to invest in venture capital in a broad, accessible, professionally-managed way, through a single basket of innovation, focused on high-growth startups, at all stages. It is how you bet on the future of tech: the smartest young people in the world, working insane hours, leveraged to the max, with code, hardware, capital, media, and community. Your dollar doesn’t work harder anywhere. There is an old line - in the future, either you are telling a computer what to do, or a computer is telling you what to do. You don’t want to be on the wrong side of that transaction. USVC lets you buy the future, but you buy it now. Then you wait, and if you are right, you get paid. Get access here: usvc.com

$fair GPs printing even in dry trenches in base. OGs know what kind of printing $fair did few months ago when base was proper hot. Expecting same kind of run soon, which will inevitably lead to the $fair run I expect. Holding tight on the gem!
