Today I'm releasing a new project: @canonpunks. New Punk collectors are looking for specific traits and combinations, not just any Punk. But over 6,000 Punks sit in wallets that haven't used the marketplace in 12 months. These Punks are effectively invisible to collectors because public listing doesn't reflect the nuances of how owners actually think about selling. Canon Punks adds private listings and open-to-offers, letting owners signal availability without committing to a public price. For collectors, this means a wider pool and better odds of finding a Punk they love. Loved Punks are more likely to be held long-term. Built on the Node API. A portion of fees will go to the Node Foundation. 🙏

Why do Dubai people always have to promote Dubai? I’m asking flat and honest.

G20 IS COMING TO MIAMI! The greatest city in the world is ready to welcome the world’s leaders. Thank you, President Trump, for choosing Miami as the stage for peace through strength.

Following today's White House announcement:

on it and I will do what you tell me

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Congressman Dusty Johnson says blockchain technology will transform every industry in the same way the internet has over the last 30 years.

He claims that he gave Iran a 60-day deadline to reach a deal, but they refused, and “on the 61st, you saw what happened.” Here’s my perspective: Trump has been preventing Israel from attacking Iran, giving them a chance to resolve the issue diplomatically without resorting to direct war. Iran rejected Trump’s offer to abandon its nuclear program, so Trump stepped aside for Netanyahu. Now, Trump asserts that Iran wants to make a deal. Trump has demonstrated to Iran that he is not bluffing and that he follows through on his threats. He has essentially shown Iran that their survival depends on Trump’s protection. Trump’s actions have been akin to a mafia boss’s tactics. I don’t necessarily agree with Trump’s approach, but that’s my interpretation of the situation. Furthermore, I don’t believe Trump has any intention of directly dragging the US into this conflict. He has no desire for a prolonged war involving US troops. His primary goal is for Iran to submit, abandon its nuclear program, and reach an economic agreement. If Iran chooses to make a deal, Trump will step back and allow Netanyahu to proceed.
