- Really need to make an emergency trip to Berlin, Seattle, NY or Palo Alto and breathe some high IQ air again
Lost at least 40 IQ points at Token2049... sadly all I had were 80
- OH:"having relations with a dev is not the same as devrel"
- Congratulations to the faithful church of Bitcointology members worldwide on their sacred halvening festival. Please be thoughtful about indulging in occult rituals like fight nights on this historic day
- That 25th March NVDA pico top is exactly where the AI guy touched a crypto bro
- The order of listing or speakers in a crypto conference website or announcement is a reflection of the prevailing social hierarchy
Adjusting for sponsorships, the higher the current or expected token price/FDV at launch, the further up any founder appears on these announcements
- Just invested in a business that has a product, users and paying customers
I will never financially recover from this 😭
- I am still signing checks into very gud tech projets but my coins are down bad
Ganna have to cut cost and move to rural nepal at this rate
- Marc Andreessen is not happy w Vitalik
That's how many times bigger the AI opportunity is compared to crypto
- Anyone can live their entire life for the sole purpose of attending crypto conferences
The true test of commitment to decentralisation is whether you are willing to risk life and limb to attend a crypto conference 🤌
- Guys don't take random risks going around the city for networking today - maybe take metro.
This is crypto lol. The same 694 people speak about the same stuff at every conf and the same 69420 of us attend every conf
I will still be there at the next big conf, and you too
- crypto people have the gall to complain about drainage in a DESERT after shipping 2 trillion dollars of shit that barely works and hardly anyone uses
You guys want to complain? Complain about yo mama
- The word KOL stands for someone who fills before they shill and shills before they sell
KOLs can be allocated tokens as advisors or in any round pre launch
All angels, VCs and folks w CT following are KOLs but ppl who KOL while they can't sell are comparatively much more legit
- Be kind to the "KOLs" doing KOL rounds. Not everyone has the resources to run a podcast or newsletter, or be a member of the social layer
- The only alignment we need
- Sage Vatsyayana was a lifetime celibate but he observed people in the act with detachment, and wrote a memorable treatise "Kamasutra"
After all these years on CT, I could be a Vatsyayana of scams at this point
- gm professional KOLs! Rise and shine and dump on us respectfully
- In my days enterprise blockchains were coinless and kept us wretched poor
In 2024, enterprise protocols like Sui and Ondo have innovations like sumptuous token unlocks, market makers, exchange listing, KOLs and TVL incentives
The world is healing
- Some of the zk folks I invested in be like 'we don't have enough content' meanwhile beras be like 'ooga booga'.
Study beras
- Trading is not for me. I suck at it
Gonna stick to gud founder service a16jit gg
- The probability of a good tech founder who's not a good crypto founder becoming both is 5%
The probability of a good crypto founder whos not a good tech founder becoming both is 0.1%
Basically if you don't have to ship, why would you find the level of focus and energy it takes?
- fwiw, the life of a professional KOL is fraught with slowly growing jail risk in an increasing number or countries and twitter doesn't forget anything
Its much better to be an angel or VC and KOL your own investments than to shill rando bags in exchange for free tokens
- Only in crypto we say things like because funds invested at valuation $ 1B, $ 10B FDV is inevitable at launch
In trad VC theres some similarity but no one knows really
Study crypto VCs right to profit, enshrined in the constitution of the bullmarket network state
- Burgers sliding in my dms this morning
- Balaji's network state should immediately intervene and force both Iran and Israel to make peace
- This is why frens, its never a bull market. It's a cow market. You gotta milk her regularly while she's still got some to give
- In crypto, surviving is much harder than making money - financially, physically, emotionally, spiritually
- The power of financial freedom
- Token 2049 plans:
1. Chasing side events: 0
2. Planned IRL Meetings: 0
3. Chasing deals: 0
4. Networking: 0
5. Hangin w frens: 69420
Just vibing
- Just before everything crashed I invested in the seed round of a memecoin with utility
- Its easier to partner with a crypto projet wen their token market cap is lower than yours
- Eigenlayer launched their mainnet without launching a token
Next day, the market tanked
This is the power of vision 👊🏾
- Have you aligned someone today?
- ****In crypto, the US of A produces by far the biggest scams but most of those ship with a little code and a lot of supporting legal paperwork
- You shill coins you want to sell
I buy coins I want to shill
We are not the same
- cryptographic security looks 30% stronger than cryptoeconomic security today
- The best crypto founders have a Chinese person named Tina on their team
- OJ Simpson died of shock that Eigenlayer still hasn't implemented slashing 30 years after he did </very bad joke>
- I am not a founder yet mainly because being a real (non skem) founder sucks:
1. not enough capital: get it
2. market bad: find a better one
3. luck is bad: maybe try being more lucky
4. timing is bad: do smth else, keep going, do later or fail maybe
5. life sucks - lol yeah 🤷🏽♂️
- In an industry that loves new shiny coin
If you let this bula pass you by
Next bula ya gonna be one page further down in of Coingecko
Study history
- EXECUTION EXEFUCKINCUTION EXECUTION
- I prefer a world where ethereum has credible competition. Competition makes L2s and ethereum make better product prioritisation decisions, ship harder, focus more, get our asses off any navel gazing contests and prevents corruption of the social layer
Vitalik bhai plays 6d chess
- Ten stages of life of *all* great crypto founders:
1. Have fun
2. Hype their thing
3. Raise money
4. Align people
5. Build their online tribe
6. Get good legal advice
7. Launch token
8. Choose rich
9. Survive cycles
10. Become VC
- Crypto is a journey from social layer to social lawyer
- I mean sex is great but have you ever got two tickets to @lens/ethcc on your first attempt?
- It's critically important that we make a distinction between good scams eg self driving cars, moving all of finance to ethereum, peer to peer electronic cash and Elon taking us to Mars...
...and bad scams eg people doing pre-sales on crypto twitter.
Invest in good scams
- AI engineers ex Google should charge crypto companies 1-5% of FDV for the sheer pump potential of their joining announcement
- Hire marketers from cosmetics, not tech. Chanel is hope in a bottle. Most tokens are hope in code
- AI engineers ex Google should charge crypto companies 1-5% of FDV for the sheer pump potential of their joining announcement
- Crypto law twitter stats today:
Legal arguments in favor of Uniswap: 0
Thoughts and prayers tweets saying Hayden bro, pls gimme your biz later, oke?: 69420
Hard to do without seeing a complaint but still...
- Well adjusted founder = lifestyle biz
Mentally disturbed founder = venture biz
