as mentioned prior, and confirmed on a call today - I'm officially joining @retake as an advisor just to be transparent about this: I think the monetization mechanics of streaming on CT & on FC are broken, and would like to help Retake team redesign them from the ground up. I'm not interested in working on vaporware or building around a vertical that relies on short term hype to drive revenue > supporting creator growth on the platform. the most pressing problem I see in streaming is that no streamer in our industry has been able to scale a meaningful audience. tackling that as the core goal is challenging enough to be interesting. if creators are not sustaining audiences and routinely producing engaging content, creating internet markets around those streamers will be essentially a wash, a miss, an L. no one will care. making people care, or helping creators find an audience & distribute their content is a product thing, an economic design problem, and a massive opportunity. they're going to pay me something for my time, which is really cool because that hasn't happened since people minted proxy studio newsletter subscriptions. For me its also extremely meaningful that the retake guys believe I have the ability to contribute positively to their company, with full knowledge of my recent & more distant past in brypto. I love to work, I want to work, and I owe a debt of real gratitude to the people who want to work with me. finally, no changes to ongoing development of diyvc (more on next steps there in another post) cheers m8's $retake

The coolest thing about Zohran Mamdani is his hot, aloof wife. I also think his campaign has exposed that the ascendant right in America is vulnerable to a left populism focused on material conditions like cost of living. Vulnerable in the exact same way that Democrats (rip) were vulnerable to Trump's candidacy in 2016 and 2024. talking about communism and Islamic terrorism doesn't hit so hard when you're speaking to someone who just can't afford to live in NYC in spite of working multiple jobs. Watching Elon and Cuomo and Bill Ackman flip out for months, trotting out 2002 jihadi-at-the-gates type shit on their way to a historic L while Zohran mogs them with his aloof wife has been fascinating. How do you win so big and also somehow fail to gauge how much the culture has changed on particular issues (Israel / Palestine, government being a weapon that people are fine seeing used, so long as they perceive it as benefiting them) And like all politicians I'll simply judge the bowdoin grad on what he does in office, and ignore the ranting of an obsolete media class bought and paid for a long time ago. Right and left alike

I stopped giving back my gains when I implemented a simple "this place is boring if ur losing" rule for my main trading accounts. If I lose anything material ($5-10k and higher), I walk away for a sec and have to pull out some $ to my IRA or savings acct mostly this means I trade less frequently, and hold onto my wins with greater frequency I still lose but not as much, and brother that feels like such a win. Don't optimize for 1000 blind trades, 99% of my profit from the past 2 years came from literally two trades, one $clanker buy and one well sized $coin call option move this summer. The rest was a wash. I'm so dumb for trading daily and so are you

easiest way to do this today is to use tokenized indices on platforms like @indexy or @reserve The clanker index I created with @re7 and @luc is up 141% since launch, and provides access to a basket of the top clanker tokens, weighted by marketcap. $450k TVL, it's highly liquid and trades without bad slippage in decent size thanks to re7 and reserve handling liquidity and market making Or you could create an agentic index on glider.fi or something like Brahma (is this project still active?) but this requires more manual user choice What makes this hard is simply the pace of our markets, and the extreme volatility of even our best coins, and best performing coins too. Plus - there just isn't a huge amount of demand structured products in crypto, most people here are looking to amplify risk, not reduce it. That said, I'd love to see a nimble and dynamic 1-click, many coins type strategy that used data from a @quotient or a @checkr to automate a strategy. Would consider aping in size to something like that

Contrarian take in clanker eco these days, and I don't agree with how they pursued the deal re: the public offer, but I fw rainbow Our eco is far too small for there to be a divide between obviously culturally aligned projects like rainbow and clanker. People make mistakes, companies certainly do, them shipping KOTH on clanker was based.
