You could confiscate all the “wealth” from the top ten richest people in America and it wouldn’t fund the federal govt for one year. Why are people so against fixing our spending before increasing taxes? How do you see trillions wasted every year and think “oh maybe if we just throw some more in everything will be fine”

Pump dot fun did to memecoins what blur did to NFTs

Top on tradfi is closer than we think

This could’ve been NFTs if 999/1000 weren’t scams

Waiting for one of my employees’ 42 day paid medical leave request for forced hantavirus quarantine

In case you weren’t aware, the s&p added basically 3x cryptos entire market cap in the last 6 weeks maybe we are still early?

Peak bear (really not that long ago)I said fidenza seems like such an easy buy but digital art felt so bleak I thought I’d just be burning more capital Sigh

I think if you look at my history, I 💩on @Memeland quite a lot esp since it’s been 3 years without art. But, honestly, looking at the field of web 3 native companies that stemmed from NFTs @9gagceo actually should be lauded. He just keeps on trying new stuff and adding new dimensions to his ecosystem. Maybe captainz are mostly pointless by now but something tells me if I wait long enough, memeland will make it out the trenches and actually pan out to be a long term success.

Lot of positivity on the crypto timeline a few weeks away from “sell in May and go away” What if 🥲

Maybe not a popular take but I am calling for this guy to be pardoned. Unless the DOJ plans on going after all the crooks in congress currently insider trading, this is simply skewed justice. There is no “justice” when guys like this get the book thrown at him yet members are illegally profiting every day. I don’t agree with what he did and he should be required to disgorge all the profits however, unless the DOJ plans on doing Congress next, this is not justice.

This @worldlibertyfi stuff is so funny. So blatantly criminal. Let the liberals arrest them all at this point tbh

Midtwit will tell you this will fail Not sure there’s a way monetarily benefit but id put money on this doing numbers

Based on my current portfolio value and never having owned hl, this seems accurate

NATO is in far bigger danger than anyone realizes. And the reason has nothing to do with defense budgets. The real danger is psychological. It’s cultural. Europeans didn’t just free-ride on American security for 80 years. They built an entire identity around the idea that they evolved past the Americans protecting them. That identity is now the single biggest obstacle to Western survival. And the darkest irony is: we helped build it. After World War II, Europe wasn’t just economically shattered. Its culture was in ruins. The cities, the universities, the concert halls, the museums. Rubble. The Marshall Plan rebuilt the economy. But culture wasn’t a priority. Not at first. Then the Iron Curtain dropped. And suddenly culture became a weapon. American diplomats, academics, artists & scholars flooded Western Europe. We funded their universities. Supported their orchestras. Rebuilt their museums. Promoted their intellectual life. Not because European culture needed saving for its own sake. Because Eastern Europeans were struggling for Maslow’s mist basic needs. We needed the view from the other side of that Wall to be intoxicating. So America built Western Europe into a showcase of self-actualization. Art. Philosophy. Cafe culture. Long vacations. Universities where people studied literature instead of surviving. We were manufacturing jealousy. And it worked. The Wall came down. But here’s what no one accounted for. When you give a society self-actualization on someone else’s tab long enough, they forget it was a gift. They start believing it was organically theirs. And when they look at the country that funded it all, a country busy building aircraft carriers and semiconductor fabs and shale fields instead of reaching the Maslow’s pinnacle. An overweight American in a ball cap who can’t tell Monet from Pissarro. Who eats fast food. Who drives a truck. Who builds strip malls instead of piazzas. And to a culture trained in aesthetics but stripped of strategic awareness, that American looks uncivilized. So the arrogance takes root. And once a culture decides another is beneath them, they stop listening. Americans say wars are sometimes necessary: crude. Oil is the backbone of prosperity: unsophisticated. Kids build companies in garages that reshape the planet: crass. Wall Street finances the global economy: vulgar. Europe has no world-class technology sector. No military capable of strong defense. No energy independence. No AI capacity. What Europe has is culture. The culture we paid for at the expense of us reaching Maslow’s pinnacle. For decades that was fine. We funded the museums, protected the sea lanes, and tolerated the sneering because the arrangement worked. Then Europeans stopped keeping the contempt private. They started saying it to our faces. In their media. In their parliaments. At every international forum. “Americans are stupid. Americans are violent. Americans are a threat to democracy.” We could have moved the Louvre to NY. We could have built a Venice here. We could have stolen your best artists, designers, philosophers and more… like your conquering armies did for centuries. Instead we funded them. And all we asked for in return was to let us visit. You don’t have the military to defend your borders. You don’t have the technology to compete. You don’t have the energy to heat your homes without begging dictators. What you have is an 80-year superiority complex FUNDED BY AMERICANS, protected by American soldiers, and built on the false belief that self-actualization is civilization. It isn’t. Civilization is the ability to sustain itself. By that measure, Europe isn’t a civilization at all. It’s a dependency with better wine. That’s not a threat. It’s a weather report. Build a Navy. Or don’t. But stop lecturing the people who made you “better than us” Our “crudeness” our “stunted liberal education” our “ugly strip malls” are because we sacrificed our culture to support yours.

Friendly reminder that @blast and @blur_io made billys and bounced and nobody gives a shit

Update: $230M USDC bridged via CCTP from Solana to Ethereum across 100 txns. 6 hours is how long Circle had to freeze stolen funds from the $280M Drift hack. Circle is a centralized stablecoin issuer headquartered in New York and the attack began around 12 pm ET. Why does our industry allow them to stay silent? @jerallaire @circle @usdc

So uh did @Memeland rug

I think I’d vote for @realDonaldTrump for a third term if he fixed these damn robocallers. It’s crazy that in 2026 @ATT @Verizon and @TMobile still haven’t resolved this issue and what the hell is the job of the @FCC if not this??

It’s mexc

NEW: Major investigation dropping February 26 on one of crypto’s most profitable businesses where multiple employees abused internal data to insider trade over a prolonged period of time.
