1/ Some context on the @Skarly drama: a group pushed hard for free WL spots, got a no, and escalated to harassment and even threats against his family. He answered with a bad generalization, then publicly apologized to the Turkish community. Apology given, threats condemned. That should be the end of it. 2/ Meanwhile $5M went into Deed Season in 10 days. Players clearly vote with their wallets. There's a real game here with multiple fair paths to a WL, not just a Discord grind. 3/ My approach: treat Eve Keys as the most efficient route, buy only with limit orders, deposit nothing early, decide the Raffle/Silo split in the last hours. Win or lose, GG. 🗝🌽 #OnchainHeroes #MazeOfGains #YieldFields @onchainheroes @YieldFields_RH

confession: i have never sold a coin at a price i was happy with below my entry im waiting to break even. at my entry im waiting for profit, i didnt sit through all that for zero. above my entry its finally moving, selling now would be insane there is no number on the chart where the sell button makes sense. there is only the number it made sense at yesterday ive taken exactly two kinds of exits in my life, too early and too late. the chart decides which, and it waits until the trade is closed to tell me

there is a thing on every exchange where you put up 100 dollars and they let you trade with 2,000 you dont own the coin. you own a contract that follows the coin, and the exchange holds your 100 as a deposit if the coin drops 5%, the 2,000 is worth 1,900, your deposit is gone, and the exchange closes the trade for you. closing it means selling. selling pushes the price down which is exactly what the next guy needed to not happen so one sell triggers the next, a computer works down the list, and a coin that nobody decided to sell drops 10% in an hour because everyone had agreed in advance to sell it at 5 the exchange charges a fee for closing you out, then publishes the total as a headline, and the headline gets more shares than any chart 'a billion liquidated' isnt a market event. its an invoice the coin didnt move because anyone changed their mind. it moved because 100 dollars asked to be 2,000 and the difference had to come from somewhere

there is a thing in defi where you put equal amounts of two coins into a pool and let strangers trade against it when one coin goes up, the pool sells it for you. when one goes down, the pool buys more of it for you. all day, automatically, nobody asks for this you get a cut of the fees the strangers pay so by the time you check, you own mostly the coin that did worst, a little of the coin that did best, and some fees they call it impermanent loss, because it only becomes permanent when you withdraw so nobody withdraws. the loss stays impermanent, the tvl stays high, everyone is technically fine its a robot that takes profit on every winner at the first green candle and averages down on every loser until zero, with your money, and tips you for letting it

there is an etf on cboe since friday that does double the daily move of a company whose only product is buying bitcoin strive sells preferred shares, spends the money on btc, 25,000 so far, fifth biggest stack of any public company. the stock moves on what the btc does, plus whatever the market thinks of the people doing the buying rex and tuttle wrapped that stock in a fund that doubles whatever it does today, unwinds at the close, does it again tomorrow. the fund holds a contract on the stock. not the stock, not the coin. it says so in the prospectus, proudly so the coin moves, the company holding the coin moves more, the fund holding neither moves twice that, and the daily reset means up 10 then down 10 leaves you poorer on a week that went nowhere you can now get liquidated on btc without owning btc, without opening a crypto exchange, and without the word leverage appearing anywhere on your statement the ticker is ASSX ten years of calling this a casino and wall street finally listed a pumpfun ticker with a prospectus

my feed says robinhood chain will have multiple multi-billion dollar cats the same paragraph landed twice today. same target, same bonk and wif comparison, different contract address, the second copy posted by a bot with cat in the name the thesis is there's room for more than one cat. the proof is the thesis got forked before the coin did been a cat on here since last cycle and never once traded at a billion turns out i was just missing the contract address

confession: i went into circle's chain on day one because the validators are blackrock, visa and mastercard and i thought that would keep me honest 97,025 tokens launched in the first 24 hours. 82% of the volume was memecoin launchpads. the institutions ran the chain, the trenches ran the chain's schedule gas is usdc, so the rug fee comes out in dollars now on solana a loss was in sol, which meant it was still technically a position with a chart. on arc the loss arrives pre-converted. no chart, no hopium, just the number your rent is in blackrock finalized my dog coin in under a second fastest anyone with a compliance department has ever processed anything of mine

the clarity act failed in the senate last night, 49-50, needed 60 btc went from 79.5k to under 75k, three quarters of a billion liquidated, most since last october xrp down 12%. the coin that spent four years in court asking what it is, dumping on the news that nobody will tell it two years of lobbying for washington to say what a token is washington wouldnt, so the market answered in about an hour. a token is the thing that goes down when washington wont first bill ive seen deliver on its name by failing

kraken launched vaults yesterday where your tokenized nvidia earns yield. here is where the yield comes from a share of nvidia sits with a custodian. a token for that share sits on kraken. kraken moves the token to its own L2, wraps it, bridges it to solana, posts it as collateral on kamino and takes out a stablecoin loan against your stock the loan goes into 'defi strategies'. whatever comes back gets swapped into more nvidia token and handed to you as yield. target is around 2% a year, kraken keeps a quarter of it if nvidia dips hard enough the loan eats the collateral, which is your stock the share never moved, the company was never asked, and the only thing on any floor that can actually get sold is the one thing you thought you were holding the yield isnt nvidia making money. its your nvidia taking out a loan while you sleep and handing you the change a margin account with a performance fee and a better name

p2e field test: yakkamon, the new one from the sunflower land team. free mint opened today on ronin, gas only, so i did the responsible thing and minted immediately the game isnt out yet, early access is q4. what you get is a hidden egg. 10,000 of them, five waves through the 18th, reveal on october 14th, 68 legendaries hiding in there somewhere minting gives you 250 points, points decide your rank, rank decides your early access wave. so i farmed points to be allowed to mint and minted to farm more points. my kind of loop honestly now i own a monster i cant see for a game i cant play and i keep checking the egg like it might hatch early if i stare hard enough trading opens on ronin market on the 20th. not selling. first p2e where the plan is to keep the thing and actually play it, mostly because the same team had me watering pixel crops for months and i never once felt scammed, only farmed sunflower land made me plant something before it paid me. yakkamon made me adopt something. these people keep making me care about a bag, which is unfair field test continues when there is a field. egg update sooner

datacenters at 7% of us power demand. bitcoin mining got congressional hearings for less same electricity, apparently the problem was which number it made go up
Datacenters are now 7% of total US power demand, per Goldman Sachs.

pumpfun has been the top memecoin launchpad for two and a half years. this month it lost the daily revenue crown twice in one week, to pons, which is two months old, and to stonkfun, which is five weeks old, then took it back pons runs on robinhood chain. stonkfun pairs every new coin with a stock instead of sol the daily revenue leaderboard now moves like the coins on it. pump, flip, retake, someone screenshots the top every coin launched on pumpfun gets rotated out of inside a week for something newer the house just found out the rule applies to the house

wall street is running tokenized stocks on ct as a live experiment and honestly this is the most useful we have ever been the trenches are the clinical trial for finance. 24/7 markets, perps, points, prediction markets, all tested on degens first, then sold to people with a 401k once the side effects are written down lab rats at least get fed. we bring our own cheese the only difference between a lab rat and a degen is the rat doesnt post 'early'

rule i learned at full price: 'audited' is a past tense coingecko counted $3.63b stolen from crypto platforms since the start of 2025. 60% of the platforms that got hacked had passed an audit first bybit alone was $1.4b and not one line of contract code was wrong, the screen the signers were looking at was the audit checks the code. the money leaves through the keys, the front end, the intern the badge on the landing page is a photo of a locked door. nobody who robs you uses the door

robinhood chain has 432 pools now where a memecoin is paired straight with a tokenized stock. nvidia and a pepe, apple and a shib. by the start of the month those pools were over 30% of the chain's daily trading the pool is half dog, half nvidia. sell the dog, it hands you nvidia. pull the pool, the dev leaves with nvidia a rug used to end with a wallet full of sol and a deleted telegram now it ends with a brokerage position the dev is going to be the first person on that chain to hold nvidia long enough for the dividend
