Stablecoins have solved moving dollars globally. They haven’t solved the fact that every transaction can be permanently tracked. Privacy will become just as important as yield.

Love to discuss financial privacy, sovereignty. privacy feels more important than ever, yet crypto seems increasingly focused on speculation and institutions. Have we lost sight of crypto’s original purpose of control and privacy over their own money? #Websea #TOKEN2049

@webseaofficial I’d want to discuss financial privacy. In the modern world, privacy feels more important than ever, yet cryptos increasingly focused on speculation and institutions. Have we lost sight of crypto’s original purpose, giving people greater control and privacy over their own assets?

As someone who partially grew up among European elite kids like him, this reminds me just how incredibly hollow some of them are.

For a quick background, I went to one of the poshest high schools in France (Janson de Sailly, for those who know) and, afterwards, to what was at the time - and probably still is - the most expensive undergraduate school in Europe (EHL in Lausanne, Switzerland).

Needless to say, many of my classmates were from unbelievably privileged backgrounds. Just in my classroom in Lausanne I had the son of a (very famous) Russian oligarch, the son of Italy's largest real estate developer and the son of Spain's largest real estate developer (funnily, the latter two were flat mates).

Another classmate of mine came from the richest family in Naples, Italy and - while we were at school - his father (known in Naples under the nickname "Il Sultano") got arrested for having bribed half of Naples's city council - which, if you know Naples, ought to tell you something.

These were the kids I was doing group projects on business ethics with (literally) 😅

Anyhow, my story, and probably my luck, was that - before going to high school in Paris - I was raised in very normal public schools in the South of France where my friends were anything but wealthy. Their parents were farmers and everyday workers.

Which means - and I'd come to realize this was very important in life - that it was easy for me to understand how big a mistake it is to see money as identity and meaning - and to confuse someone's net worth with their actual worth.

What really struck me at the time was the contrast with my "poor" classmates of earlier in my life. They couldn't define themselves by what they had - by definition - and this forced them to reach deeper for their identity: their skills, knowledge, humor, etc.

Rich kids can skip that entire process, and the tragedy is that most of them do: they reach for the readymade identity that money provides. I remember being incredibly frustrated by many of my classmates, like "ok, I get it, your dad is rich and you own a lot of nice things but who are YOU, what else is there?" The answer, more often than not, was nothing.

To be fair, there were exceptions. One of my classmates I was most impressed by came from one of Zurich's wealthiest families (which, if you know Zurich, means insanely wealthy) yet he was almost OCD in not showing he had money: driving the shittiest car imaginable, living in a small studio, etc. He was very intellectual, very contrarian, and clearly at war with the idea that his family's wealth ought to define who he was.

I only discovered who he actually was when I started my first company and he approached me to invest: to discuss the investment I went to one of his family homes, which it turned out was a literal palatial castle on the shores of Geneva lake. The guy had decided to live in a small rundown studio when he literally had a castle sitting empty a 5-min drive away.

THAT I was impressed by: it's easy to see that money isn't meaning when you don't have any. To see it when you have more than almost anyone - when everyone around you is organized around the opposite assumption - is much harder. But to actually live it, to choose the studio when you have the castle keys in your pockets - with no audience to applaud you for that - that shows real depth.

At the end of the day, I think, the real distinction isn't between rich and poor but between people who exist from the inside out and people who exist from the outside in.

Wealth just happens to make it incredibly easy to be the latter, to skip the work of becoming someone and settle for a borrowed identity that glitters from the outside but is hollow all the way through. A Potemkin village identity.

This is actually a real societal issue, and magnified by social media (with idiotic posts like this one 👇): the more "outside in" folks out there, the less people with genuine internal anchors, the more fragile everything becomes.

When you think about it, everything that genuinely matters in a society is built by people who think for themselves: they take the world in, pass it through something genuinely their own, and give back something that didn't exist before: an idea, a conviction, a stand.

Every reform, every invention, every act of moral courage in history came from someone with an internal anchor strong enough to resist the current. Remove those people and all you have left is the current.

This isn't new, by the way. Most ancient traditions warn against exactly this, from the Bible (the golden calf story) to Confucius, who built his entire ethics around the distinction between the exemplary person (the Junzi, 君子) - oriented around internal cultivation and righteousness - and the petty person (Xiaoren, 小人), oriented around profit and gain. The junzi builds himself from the inside, the xiaoren chases what's outside.

So please, do not make the mistake of being impressed by wealthy people flaunting their wealth. Don't focus on the glitter, focus on the hollowness it's trying to hide.

Women do not really care about height, money, or most of the things men assume they care about in isolation.

Female perception gives more weight to social elevation. A man becomes desirable when he is positioned as desirable within the broader status hierarchy.

So if society collectively decides that being with a man who is six feet or taller is high status, many women will naturally gravitate toward that archetype, because it has been socially consecrated as a marker of desirability.

Women often want to feel elevated through the man they are with. They want the relationship to signify something in the eyes of the world. This also reveals how female competition operates. Desire is often socially mediated, performed, and intensified through comparison. Social media and the internet have only amplified this mechanism, because women are now constantly exposed to visible hierarchies of beauty, lifestyle, relationships, and status.

Put the same woman in an environment where short men are collectively regarded as highly attractive, rare, or prestigious, and her preferences may begin to reorganise around that standard.

This shows that a large part of what people call “preference” is often just social conditioning.

I usually avoid trading through binary events or "coin flips". $NVO good example this morning with drug trial results. But there's also earnings numbers. Court rulings. Regulatory outcomes. Hit or miss. Stuff that could go either way...

Two ways I play binary events:

> play the run-up / anticipation...get out before actual event or release of results

> stay sidelined + observe reactions...let the company deliver the results, analyze them, let the dust settle on initial move, then get involved if there's an emotion-fueled mispricing opportunity

Making a directional bet on a coin-flip is not within my risk profile, but the volatility does create opportunity so those are two ways I participate.
