I find that top performance is a dance of periods of focus, interspersed with periods of inspiration maxxing. Fill your inspiration power bar up- even if it takes some chaos sprinkling- then get the fuck off the grid and lock in. This I’ve known for a long time. What I’ve gotten better at now is recognizing the right time to switch modes. Awareness of when you are slowing and need a kick, and when you are overstimulated and need to just get output out. Do this deliberately and conciously and you’ll unlock a whole new level of yourself.

Gonna get some stylistic public speaking training and rerun this query leaderboard in 12 months. @EvgenyGaevoy you might wanna join me in class 🥲

Thought BTC was just a crappy leveraged Nasdaq: So then why is Orange relentless while tech stocks are hurting this week..? USD debasement narrative is back on the table! Last time 30 year bond bids disappeared? Check the date of my tweet below, and BTC runup afterwards 🤔

For the past 3 years my elite friends that are either working in AI or living in San Francisco have been telling me adamantly we are 1-2 years from AGI/ASI singularity and absolutely everything is about to change. Meanwhile my intuition has been that no we’re not close to anything like humans not needed for intelligence. Like nowhere near I dont even see any whites on the eyes of this digital high IQ terminator, this dude is far on the horizon with the little mountains over there. Stark division of opinions throughout. My intuition Ive learned to train and listen to it, its my most powerful weapon. But I am a humble weaponholder, I recognize the achievements and abilities of these friends, in some cases of the most elite of them, far outweighs what I have achieved. If my opinion clashes so much with people of this caliber I also sit my ass down and listen. Its been enough time now that we’ve gone through their initial timelines. And somehow it feels like we have both been right? Clearly something revolutionary is going on, the digital/software world is being terraformed in front of our eyes and taking huge swaths of the economy with it. But I have been, so far, clearly correct. These things are still closer to a tool rather than replacing the tool holder. I still dont see it on the horizon. I dont know if its what Ilya S says that the data is gonna be the constraint. That feels right to me. There are only so many non linear intelligence vectors to train upon. There are still humans finding new ideas and innovating above and beyond what is available to train on online. I like to believe I am one of them and I dont feel like I am anywhere near saturation or that it will happen anytime in my lifetime. Yan LC has his belief that LLMs are capped which was well articulated, now though combined with world models I don’t know if thats the constraint. Data might be the boundary that will saturate first and the innovation needed for the next stage might be creating useful artificial data, much like for a long time financial model training has involved creating fake training data that has the attributes needed to program alpha. Ultimately this is all a pursuit for more alpha. Its a bit unnerving that even though I have been correct that the timelines on us being replaceable meat boxes arent correct, its impossible for me disprove the notion that its at the next corner we are about to reach. I feel like we will just keep going one block down the street at a time with baited breath because clearly something is getting closer though holding your breath for how long its actually gonna take is gonna asfixiate us. So lets take a breath. Theres a lot of trauma under the surface from the rate of change accelerating. Every single one of us feels it. The fascia are being pulled and we are emotionally masking it under our skin. We know something is under way. But those of us with strong awareness and with the lights switched on aren’t going to stop being needed anytime soon- I don’t care how many Elons, Darios, and Leopolds say otherwise.

The Polish people are one of the few reasons for optimism for Europe. Hard working, diligent, with good morals and more centrist social policies. A real contrast to the old Europe which has been decaying for many years now, collapsing under the lazy weight of its old success.

Ive said it to people around me for months, but the health impact of different types od light is the next thing the world will wake up to. Very underrated right now. Bit of sunlight on body, bunch of red light spectrums, blue in places like mouthguards for microbiome effects, Im reading up on new research on green light, and I stay the hell away from those disgusting bright fluorescents at night in the streets in some cities (Singapore needs to catch up here). Soft yellow light on the street is super underrated, loved seeing it in Switzerland.

I only QT here bc Ive heard completely different from multiple sources and many including me would normally take this Cobie statement at face value. Believe it would be fair to the Hype community to get some clarity on the plan for value accrual of XYZ given how key it is..

Experimenting- anyone around Mayfair in London and free for the next hour?

No - we’re not slamming the books with this block. We use HYPE tokens across many parts of the eco- trading fee staking for our wallets, LP and arbitrage on HyperEVM, HYPE bidding etc I also don’t believe the paradigm and multicoin blocks are being sold. That said- when the timeline is so worried that the (3,3) is being broken, that brings back memories. Natives seem already fully allocated and just on for the ride. My personal opinion is that HYPE is fundamentally fairly valued here. The main upside is if the impressive tradfi volume ever can translate into juicier fees, but theres many unanswered question on that journey. Maybe we need a Steady Lads episode.

A lesson from the $ 80m+ of liquidations on SKHYNIX perps today: Keep @selenagomez on your mind when you go to trade these RWA Perps. Perpetual users aren't in the underlying market, betting in the official "casino". They're the people standing around the blackjack table, betting with each other on what might happen at the table. TradeXYZ and other Perp venues go up to them, and offer to referee PvP bets.. for a fee of course. And as referees they can decide separately from the casino on different rules for the bets, and how to handle all the edge cases. If they want people to keep betting with them, these fee charging referees have to try and handle them gracefully otherwise people will find a different place to bet. So while edge cases get ironed out and Perp specifications of each contract shows itself over time to be Lindy, it is the Wild West and liquidation wicks like today will happen. As with prediction markets, there can be a difference between being right and getting paid. "Did Zelensky wear a suit?" ..."Was the SK Hynix pre-open a real price?" The key part of Perps design is how liquidations are handled. Even if Longs are collateralized 1:1, shorts will always have a liquidation point so there is no way to avoid this part of the puzzle. Over time, refinements happen. Today's SKHYNIX event will make tomorrow's contract better. Long Term, RWA perps are some of the most exciting instruments in Finance, and as they get refined they will eventually have the robustness needed to drive global price discovery. Short term... Whenever you're about to trade a new RWA Perp, remember you aren't Selena Gomez at the blackjack table. You're in the crowd. And if the Perp specifications have only been recently implemented, and the underlying is more exotic than a simple MAG7 stock.. well you are actually standing wayyy the hell back in the crowd.

I have never heard edge explained so clearly in my life to be honest. Had the pleasure of sitting down with @gametheorizing on the @1000xPod to record some top tier content, where he articulated exactly how to identify opportunities in the markets. "Someone always wants to de-risk an asset they hold. They'll give up edge to secure the bag. You're always exchanging risk for expected value. Understand that primitive and you find every trade."

Visa, Mastercard, BlackRock and 140 other firms just launched OUSD to take on Circle and Tether. Haseeb says it’s a signed petition. @gametheorizing says it lives or dies on the yield economics and revenue-share. Meanwhile, ENS proved a DAO is just one guy.

First off: we did indeed buy all the tokens. We love the team and what they're doing, and we believe this space and the technology they're building is really important.

Saylor's 2029 bond repurchase was a (??) in chess terms, but today was a (!!) brilliancy move. Nothing overcomplex - just a balance of MSTR, STRC and BTC that stops the spiral concerns. The pundits were saying he had to lamb sacrifice one of these 3-- but all 3 are up today.
