Good reminder that no matter how smart the contracts may be, having a trust layer of ppl who have your best interests in mind remains important.

We’ve just finished a whitehat operation on an exploit discovered in Flooring Protocol.

Now safely in the custody of Yuga Labs:

29 bored apes
4 mutant apes
1 bakc
2 cryptopunks
1 azuki
2 elementals
26 captains
1 moonbird
2 doodles

@0xQuit, our VP of Blockchain recovered the NFTs. Will leave the details for him to go over in a separate thread.

There was an exploit earlier this morning on the same protocol which had left some collections already raided. Huge shout to @coffeedev who found that by tweaking the same exploit, there was an even larger risk to other Flooring collections like BAYC and Cryptopunks.

I quietly instructed our GrailsOTC trading desk to front the money and NFTs to rescue the at-risk assets from the protocol.

We will work together with the protocol devs to return these assets once a solution is sorted. Could mean contract relaunches and token reassurances within that protocol - or more.

But thanks to this move we were able to save dozens of assets from impacting the market and flooring protocol tokens from being compromised.

@Release_me555 @BojangleGuy @sergitosergito @MeebitsNFTs Sweet meeb!
This one is for my daughter

@dave_krugman @MeebitsNFTs @sergitosergito 💯

My favorite part of collecting Meebits was finding the one that best represents me.

[economist ❚ ❚ 🤙 @economist]

I was muddled on hyperliquid:native until the $COIN and $CRCL news broke last month, signaling a real shift from chaotic innovation to thoughtful compliance. Folks like a revenue story, and it often outweighs grey areas that arise from innovation (ie $UBER)

In case you missed it, @AdamWeitsman acquired 805 Meebits from a third party collection in a deal brokered by MeebCo.

Here's a behind-the-scenes look at how that went down:

@goodvibesclub @opensea I had so much fun building vibe-o-matic.

The GVC Hackathon has officially concluded. We’re stoked to dig into all the submissions.

Thank you to every builder who created something and added to the world we’re building together.

Everyone who participated will receive an exclusive Vibe-A-Thon badge!

@wizardofsoho Institutional crypto adoption (Ethereum is the biggest institutional playground over the last few years) + monetary premium that further adoption grants it. Less pure monetary value than BTC tho.

@Stupifff Underrated post

The model is down on solana:So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112.

Frankly, it’s because they’re noticeably behind ethereum:native when it comes to institutional crypto adoption, which is where my bull thesis is routed.

[majorblazer 🙃🤙🏽🐰 @majorblaz3r]

@economist So fun bro! 🤙

[economist ❚ ❚ 🤙 @economist]

zcash:native is a beta to $BTC with a privacy narrative, but without the monetary premium BTC commands (ie where its value comes from). Once Zec’s core tenant (privacy) was flagged to be a risk, much of its premium erodes, causing these swings.

exploit news was a sell tripwire, 💯

@mdudas Agree 💯

Celebrating #griday with a random 3x3 from my GVC collection. It's always a good day in vibetown, regardless of what the markets are doing.

[economist ❚ ❚ 🤙 @economist]

@econoar More specifically, the institutional app layer. Tokenization is the future and the community should push for enterprises to keep exploring Ethereum for those needs.

[economist ❚ ❚ 🤙 @economist]

Updated thesis expectations based off the sell-off this morning, and it only leads to wider gap percentages. This is why a regular DCA strategy works best for conviction vs. trading every momentum move.
