BREAKING: Just five minutes before Trump's announcement to halt the attacks on Iran, massive trades reportedly hit the market.

In one move, $1.5 billion in S&P 500 (ES) futures was bought while $192 million in oil (CL) futures was sold.

These orders were 4–6x larger than anything else at the time.

The trader seemingly made huge gains.

Unusual.

A shift from Vesting to liquid $ORX is happening, and it's by design. Whether you're a liquid or vesting holder, on the day of Auryn's launch, we will all be on the same terms again.

- ORX supply obliteration through early claims to gain a share of Auryn

- ORX supply reduction and price increases driving up APR on USDx farming

- USDx TVL balloons as wETH and other deposits flood the protocol with TVL to arb down the APR

- Fee income rockets as an unrestricted collateral (wETH) is added with no debt cap

- ORX supply reduction means more fee income per ORX

- Auryn has a similar launch to $ORX, can we repeat the liquid 10x ORX did on day one?

- Additional ORX supply reduction via locking in the Auryn Buy&Burn

- Portion of ORX burned for participation in Auryn

- Staking incentives for Auryn which are timelocked, incentivising both early claims on Auryn, and supply locking simultaneously

- ETH/TitanX/ORX inputs, all routing to Auryn through ORX

- 4T $TitanX in the ORX BnB

- How many millions of ORX in the Auryn BnB?

- Dual layered BnB making the base token pump (ORX), with the derivative (Auryn) pumping the ratio.

And yet... It's just going to be a stepping stone to the next phase.

You literally had 2 months straight of price stability around 4.9c.

Now it’s 8.2c and the run hasn’t even started yet.

$CHEX is @ChintaiNetwork's Real-World Asset exchange token. Staking begins this month. $SOL bridge coming in a few weeks. #Kucoin listing coming by end of March.

Oh - and Chintai's exchange is expected to have OVER $1B in issuances by EOY 2024, based on signed client deals. 🤯

On December 6th, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon said he would "close down" #Bitcoin & crypto if he were the government.

Yesterday, BlackRock named JPMorgan as an authorized participant for its Spot Bitcoin ETF.

[Raoul Pal @RaoulGMI]

If you care whether the BTC ETF is priced in or not, your time horizon is too short. It is all noise in the grand scheme of what lies ahead.

Don't fuck This Up.

[Brad Garlinghouse @bgarlinghouse]

Today was an even better day.
Ripple: 3
SEC: 0

In all seriousness, Chris and I (in a case involving no claims of fraud or misrepresentations) were targeted by the SEC in a ruthless attempt to personally ruin us and the company so many have worked hard to build for over a decade.

The SEC repeatedly kept its eye off the ball while secretly meeting with the likes of SBF – failing again and again to protect US consumers & businesses. How many millions of taxpayer $ were wasted?!
Feels good to finally be vindicated.

I rang my bank & preordered £25,000 cash for the following day with a time slot

Went to the bank and said to the cashier I’m here to collect my money

The cashier says: that’s a lot of money what do you need it for?

I said it’s all relative and that I’m purchasing a car

He proceeds to repeatedly ask: what kind of car? Did anybody make you withdraw this money? Have you seen the car? Why in cash? Have you seen the advert?

Afterwards he knocked on his manager’s window and said he is not comfortable giving me the money, he’d rather someone sat down with me. So he asked me to take a seat and wait

I sat there and nobody approached me for a while

Eventually I went back to the desk and
in the end the manager told him to hand over my money

The whole ordeal took place in front of all the other customers (who were in disbelief) and took over an hour until they eventually handed over MY money which I PREORDERED

They make you feel criminal for withdrawing your own money

BANKS SUCK

THIS JUST IN: The D.C. Circuit ruled 3-0 in favor of Grayscale and $GBTC. This is a monumental step forward for all who have been advocating for Bitcoin exposure through the added protections of the ETF wrapper. Read the decision: https://t.co/ulAtcsad2G

[John E Deaton @JohnEDeaton1]

This is exactly what the Judge in the @Ripple case was alluding to when she said SEC lawyers were not maintaining a faithful allegiance to the law. You’re supposed to have a good faith basis to being a case, meaning you believe you can win by applying the law. You don’t wait until a judge tell you otherwise. Shameful on @SECEnfDirector and @GaryGensler.

The @SenWarren and @GaryGensler war against crypto is going to alienate an entire generation of would-be Democrats.

Winning the youth vote w/ "get out the vote" is key part of Dem playbook.
Dems believe the youth vote will carry the day.
