in april, CloneX NFTS displayed the image below instead of the original art due to an issue with the cloud hosting platform.

although it was eventually resolved, it was a wake-up call to many that the same thing could happen to any of the NFT collections that they held.

afterwards, there were discussions on the best method to prevent something like that from happening again and some argued that IPFS solves this issue well.

i did further digging into the claim and found that it really doesn't --> https://x.com/0xwilliama/status/1921169799456923899?t=7krf7tscohgjpzem78n_fw&s=19

Wow the new CloneX art upgrade is fire https://t.co/rS9EXaJRLv

So I did a little digging on whether IPFS could have prevented the issue that CloneX had, and I found out that even IPFS doesn't prevent it from happening.

A little on how IPFS functions:

IPFS stands for InterPlanetary File System, and it's a decentralized method for storing https://t.co/iFLKYnW3yY

P.S. I really like the product and highly recommend checking them out.

When I hear the word PMF (product market fit), 2 things come to mind:

- A product that people use because they love it, and it clicks so well with their needs that they choose it over alternatives

- A product that people use because it solves a real problem (even if the UX is https://t.co/ca9MWAjsOB

Idk if it'd just me, but ever since the rebrand, this app’s felt way sleeker and smoother. 

Big props to the team.

in light of the present market conditions, do this:

- take a breath

- step back from the screen

- focus on things like building your skills & touch grass.

the market will bounce back, it always does.

story time guys:

today, I tried moving some funds (ETH) I used on-chain back to my binance account.

after sending the ETH, I noticed I wasn’t getting the usual 'deposit pending' notification in-app, so I got a bit worried and went back to my wallet to double-check the https://t.co/HQFCkmQ6kP

I’m realizing the solution to scarcity is actually to give more, not close off and try to hoard what I have. Scarcity is a feeling and I conquer it by realizing the truth of abundance. I already have more than I need. It’s described in Proverbs 11:24-25:

“One person gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty. A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.”

Scarcity is a fear that there won’t be enough, and the natural response to that is to stockpile what I have. To give in the face of this fear is counterintuitive but it’s actually the solution. It’s the same concept described in 1 Peter 3:9:

“Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God has called you to do, and he will grant you his blessing.”

These concepts have taken me years to understand. The flip side of the coin is the solution. Our natural instinct in the case of

For my /firstdraft, I wrote a thread breaking down Infinex - what it is and its features.

P.S.  after reading this, you just might end up making it your favorite wallet to use.

With Infinex teasing rewards for Kaito users...

Everyone and their favorite influencer is already talking about it.

But what exactly is Infinex, and why should you care about what they're building? 🧵

I don't know if it's too late or not, but I'm sharing anyway.

LensProtocol - [a decentralized social network built on the Polygon blockchain that allows users to own and monetize their content] - will be launching their own L2 @LC, to help with scalability.

Not sure if there's been an algo update or not but I'm liking the casts I now see in my home feed.

I don't know about you, but there have been a couple of times when I beat myself up for taking profit on a token that pumped afterward. 

I wrote a bit about what these experiences have made me realize. 👇

If you ask 10 different people this question: “Why do you make use of AI? ”

Their responses, no matter how different, will boil down to this answer: “Because it’s convenient and saves me a lot of time.”

And why wouldn’t they?
