For the first time ever, US-regulated gold and silver futures won’t be closing for the weekend. Or ever. 24/7 trading goes live tonight on Coinbase. With oil, and more, coming soon.

We need to stop taxing EVERYONE until we can show a balanced budget and where every single taxpayer dollar goes and I don’t care if Elon Musk has a trillion dollars of unrealized gains This is pandering
Brad, a 5% tax on Elon's trillion net worth would literally pay for free college and trade school for every American. And with the market's growth, he still would be worth over a trillion dollars! You don't think that's worth it?
Community note
5% of $1.2T is $60b. 8m students in BA/BS programs on average pay over $20k/yr, or ~$160b/yr for BA/BS degrees only. That tax could not cover even half of only US bachelor degree costs for just 1 year, excluding grad, ass., or trade degrees totaling another ~10m students. nces.ed.gov/programs/coe/i… bestcolleges.com/research/colle…

.@jswihart says Zcash's biggest advantage isn't just the technology, it's the history. "You can't recreate that 10 years of history by taking some tech and throwing it on another chain."

Throughout history, people held gold but spent silver. The same pattern is playing out with Bitcoin and Litecoin. @SatoshiLite tells @davidlin_TV why.

Crypto's next phase will not be won by isolated ecosystems. The largest interoperability deployment in Cardano's history is coming. Earlier this year, we announced that all of crypto would be connected to Cardano via LayerZero, creating a path for over 800 tokens to natively expand into the Cardano ecosystem. The complex technical work will roll out in phases, from testnet and mainnet endpoints, to Stargate, to developer tooling that makes it easy for anyone to deploy, to product integrations across the entire LayerZero stack. By the end of this year, any asset will be able to deploy on Cardano. While this work is in flight, we'll be teaming up with the Cardano teams to share more behind the scenes: a detailed roadmap, a deep dive on our partnership, and co-hosted digital and IRL events for the community. We're excited for what this work means for both LayerZero and Cardano, and can't wait to share more in the coming weeks. A connected Cardano. Done right. iog.io/news/cardano-is-conne…

Looks like the options thing is happening already! See also: various people thinking through and building different versions of the idea in the thread: ethresear.ch/t/building-inde… Though I do strongly urge that if any of these get on mainnet quickly, we formally verify it first. I hope @vyperlang and/or github.com/lfglabs-dev/verit… folks ( @Fricoben) can help! (Also, now is a good time to be thinking about robustness-optimized oracles) firefly.social/post/x/206494…

Scammers think crypto gives them a place to hide. It doesn't. We recently concluded a major operation with @Meta, @Microsoft, @Starlink, and @TheJusticeDept to freeze $3M in assets tied to scam networks in Southeast Asia. Another case solved thanks to the transparency of blockchains. coinbase.com/en-gb/blog/figh…

One of the many things I dislike about the style of "make AI go well" discourse from frontier AI companies is how nationalist the whole thing has gotten. In the 2010s, it was: "we're here to benefit all of humanity" In the 2020s, "we're here to benefit all of 4% of humanity" And even the Good People are buying into this frame completely😢 And they expect humanity to go along, because "come on, be a realistic adult, it's either us or Chiiina" or something like that (And on the EU side, you get "[X] with European values", which too often seems to mean "the same stuff they're doing, but with Us instead of Them in charge") Very big-dog-small-dog energy, morally speaking.
NEW: Bernie Sanders proposes the government take 50% of OpenAI & Anthropic to give the public a “direct ownership stake.”
