Every bet on a founder is a bet on an ecosystem. That comes with upside and downside.
Every morning is the same. I crawl into the Dexter-style cold plunge.
Legendary day. Galaxy: Jeets an absurd amount of BTC from an OG whale while Novagratz goes on TV to shill his next failed tattoo. BTC: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The crypto-fication of banks and BTC-treasury hype might have an unknown side effect. Trust minimized solutions never get adopted en masse and hit escape velocity. Good enough is good enough for the average person.
when @arkade_os or @2ndbtc launches, bitcoin will have 2 to 3, trust-minimized L2s with unilateral exit guarantees if you're like me and include @spark and @mercurylayer, then there's 4 to 5 this is genuinely fucking incredible
Vibes rn. Btw if you want to learn Bitcoin Script. Highly highly recommend The Bitcoin Dev Project as a starting place. Shoutout @ChaincodeLabs for sponsoring this initiative.
Watching VC funds blow up. Founders busting their ass and still closing. You realize survival is 80% of the game. Shoutout to the ones who won't die. 🥂
I’m so bullish on off-chain scaling that nothing else really enters my thought process ATM
Playing with BTKN tokens. Funded my wallet with Lightning via my @getAlby node in seconds. 👏 Trying to buy some FlashSparks token but everyone is selling in fat bundles. 👎 Runes 2.0 (for now)😂
Today, we're introducing BTKN. We've spent months perfecting the UX for Bitcoin tokens. BTKN is the culmination of everything we've learned along the way. Details soon.
Bitcoin wasn't always proof-of-work 🤔 In this Github commit, Satoshi changes the bitcoin chain tip algorithm. Previously, the code would check if nHeight was greater than the current chain nBestHeight. This only counted # of blocks which could be gamed with lower difficulty…
We haven't reached the crypto lending volumes we saw in 2021 DeFi mania. Bullish. BTC is the pristine asset. Chart Credit: @galaxyhq
