I need 4 US-based startup founders, and I will pay them each $100 in $USDC or any other token they want. You do need a LinkedIn that you need to share with me, as this only works with vetted founders (in other words, you need to be legit). DM me if this is you! First come, first serve.

As someone born and raised in New York, it has been a long time since we have had a moment quite like this. Our City has felt divided. We have disagreed on almost everything. The @nyknicks finally give us something to agree on. When @KarlTowns said the goal was to give New York “hope” and “success,” he captured exactly what this team has done. They have already given us hope. And now an entire city is holding its breath, believing that something special might be possible. For New York fans, this feels like the @Giants’ run to the Super Bowl in 2007. The odds say one thing. The belief says another. @jalenbrunson1 has become the closest thing this generation has to @derekjeter. Not because he plays the same game, but because he carries the same weight. The same poise. The same confidence that no moment is too big for New York; and with a humbleness all true leaders possess. This is a city built on rivalries. @Giants or @nyjets. @Yankees or @Mets. @NYRangers or @NYIslanders. But right now, none of that matters. Right now, New York is one team. Thank you, @nyknicks, for reminding us what that feels like. Thank you for giving this city hope. Thank you for making New Yorkers believe again. You got this! 💪💪💪

Feels like Base had the right idea about tokenizing everything, but a different definition of “everything” on what should be tokenized. They were trying to speed run the race to a billion users, but we ended up with blockchain slop nobody wanted. The efforts would have been more fruitful if the focus was on tokenizing assets that provided tangible yield (small business, real estate, etc) They could still fill that gap by using their footprint by market making and supporting an order book for the above but not sure if they’re thinking about it that way.

Breaking: The Browns are finalizing a trade that will send Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams, sources tell @adamschefter, @rapsheet and @TomPelissero. The Rams are expected to send Pro-Bowl edge Jared Verse, a 2027 first-round pick and other draft-pick compensation still being negotiated to the Browns.

I look forward to the day my digital wallet isn’t full of memecoins, but fractional ownership of various assets which are continuously streaming money.

“Are people who trade in perps lazy degenerates?” I can see this being answered in the affirmative or the negative.

Synthetic tokens are something that sound so wrong and right at the same time. It’s exposure to “something.” Yet, you don’t own “something.”

The irony of utility-based tokens that actually do something ($ETH for gas, $LINK as an oracle, etc.) is that their usefulness means they virtually always have a ceiling. If its price goes up too high, it needs to scale to conduct its function more cost-efficiently, or people will find a more affordable alternative. Either way, it means you need to hold less; price is implicitly capped. $BTC being simple and not being overly programmatic is its superpower.

Is there a way I can make my own token which is essentially an index of other tokens I’ve selected? Last I explored this, it wasn’t something one could do permissionlessly.

Feels like there’s a large disconnect between what CT thinks institutional adoption of crypto will do and how institutions are planning to go about it.

I get the need for security, but I still find it crazy we have stablecoins on L2s but not tokenized gold that is backed 1:1.

After attending Consensus and then Digital Assets week, the theme that keeps coming up is tokenization of real world assets (RWA). This is something I talked quite a bit about on my pod in 2023. Biggest barrier back then was regulation and institutions taking it seriously. Landscape is catching up. Be ready.

2026 is going to be the year everyone and everything gets hacked Whatever you do in the digital world you should always start from the assumption that YOU WILL BE HACKED and the websites and apps you use WILL BE HACKED Use 2FA, hardware wallets, contingencies, and protect for the worst case scenario because that worst case scenario is likely happening Be proactive and take steps now rather than when it’s too late
