I gave a stranger a ride at night. 15 minutes in, he said: “Oga, you shouldn’t have picked me. Not tonight. 🧵🪡

X Monetization: An Escape Route From Gambling Addiction? Let’s be honest, a lot of people in Nigeria aren’t addicted to gambling because they love it, they’re addicted because they’re desperate. Because every day feels like survival, and betting starts to look like the only “fast” way out. But here’s a wild thought: What if X monetization is the new escape route? Instead of staking 2k on odds you didn’t research, you can invest that same energy into writing, building an audience, and getting paid for your brain. No lie, gambling gives you hope. But X monetization gives you skills. Gambling gives you adrenaline. But monetization gives you income. Gambling gives you “maybe.” Monetization gives you “eventually.” And the most painful part? Most people who bet daily already have what it takes to win on X: Consistency Obsession Daily routine Community Risk-taking mindset They’re just applying it in the wrong direction. If you can check odds every morning, you can post every morning. If you can spend 5k on stake weekly, you can spend that on data and learning. If you can wait 90 minutes for a match result, you can wait 90 days for growth. The real question is this: Will people choose slow money that builds them or fast money that destroys them? Because in the end, gambling doesn’t reward discipline. It rewards luck. But X monetization? It rewards effort. What do you think: Is X monetization a realistic escape route for gamblers or just another “false hope”? 👀🔥

The real question isn’t the hours it’s what happens to price discovery and liquidity when you spread activity across 24/7. Crypto already proved thin-hour trading = wider spreads and more manipulation. Tokenization solves access, but it doesn’t automatically solve liquidity fragmentation.

The sound is too nostalgic

This is exactly why we need leaders like Brian who aren’t afraid to call out what’s really happening. Banks have been gatekeeping long enough. @brian_armstrong 💪🏽

Gold is Red!

We’re so not back Ethan

Bitcoin trading at $87,766 today, down 30% from its October peak of $110K. Markets in a consolidation phase as over half of BTC investors are now underwater. Key support holding at $87K (100-week MA), but bearish pressure building with $1.3B in ETF outflows this week. Meanwhile, gold & silver hitting records their combined gains in a single day matched BTC’s entire market cap.

Interesting thesis, but a few things to consider: Volume ≠ value capture. Backpack’s $400B cumulative volume sounds impressive until you realize that’s spread across its entire history while HYPE does $4-5B daily. The velocity and consistency matter more than the aggregate number. The FDV comparison also misses token economics entirely. What’s the emission schedule? Vesting? Actual circulating supply at launch? A 700M FDV could still mean brutal sell pressure if unlocks are aggressive. You’re also comparing a multi-product suite (which sounds bullish) to a focused perps platform that executes one thing exceptionally well. Jack of all trades isn’t always the winner in crypto - often it’s the master of one. That said, if they nail US/EU expansion and the token economics aren’t predatory, sub-1B FDV could be interesting. But calling it ‘the most obvious bid of the year’ when we don’t even have tokenomics yet? That’s a lot of hopium. Let’s see the actual launch details first.

Daily PoR should be the industry standard, not a competitive advantage. Transparency isn’t optional when you’re custodying people’s assets. This is what rebuilding trust looks like. Gm y’all 🎒

The infrastructure potential is massive, but curious about the regulatory pathway for bringing those 4B unbanked adults onchain. What’s the timeline looking like for cross-border compliance frameworks that would actually enable this at scale? The efficiency gains are clear for institutions already, but retail access seems like the longer unlock. @brian_armstrong

Base is INEVITABLE

gm Yeah we’re back!

Celebrity life e no easy.😌

This is the part that drives me crazy. Banks lobbying against yield on stablecoins while China’s rolling out competitive products… and we’re surprised when other countries don’t pick our rails? Come on.
