Look, no matter how much money you invest in crypto, your portfolio should be something like this:
➬ 40% BTC
➬ 20% ETH
➬ 10% quality alts
➬ 5% high potential "shitcoins"
➬ 15% working (trading/opportunities) capital
➬ 20% USDT (to buy dips)
Don't forget to rotate profits to increase position size or reduce risk in USDT
● Rug Pulls by AI Agents
By 2025, don't be surprised if AI agents execute their first rug pulls.
Imagine autonomous systems launching tokens, generating hype, building communities, and then vanishing with the funds—it's only a matter of time.

This rings very true. @cameron and I grew up playing classical piano and entering recitals where you'd be judged on your performance of pieces by Chopin, Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, Schubert, etc. When we'd check-in at each recital, they'd think we were lost because we were pretty much the only white, non-first generation Americans there. Almost all the other participants were sons and daughters of APAC immigrants.
I've heard before that SONY, a Japanese company, made the play length of a CD 74 minutes, so it could fit Beethoven’s 9th symphony (74min) on one CD, instead of two. In America we talk about 10,000 hours as the time it takes to master your craft. In Japan that's a rookie. They talk about 30,000 hours. All of this is culture. It is what a culture values and what it rewards.
No culture fosters more creativity, innovation, and better risk-taking than American culture. That is why we have the best builders and produce the best companies in the world. If we placed as much emphasis on STEM, chess, classical music, and other highly technical and intellectual pursuits for kids early on and rewarded and praised the kids who excelled in these areas as much as we do those who excel in sports, celebrity, and influencing, I think our culture would be much stronger and totally unbeatable. This our choice as a country and a culture to make.
An excellent argument against taxing unrealized gains...
Seriously, imagine the shitshow the IRS could do by falsely accusing people of being Satoshi and seizing their assets on that basis. Madness.
This looks bad.
I am all kinds of torn up this morning about this thread.
Did @Aerodromefi take a GPL3 licensed platform (Solidly) by @AndreCronjeTech and try to turn it into a BUSL platform requiring a paid license to use in production?
I've been so impressed with everything @AerodromeFi has been doing on @base and the philosophy that I heard from @wagmiAlexander at Basecamp.
From an execution perspective, they have been 🔥, but this is a really bad look for the project and team if true.
I have not verified the veracity of these claims by @AndreCronjeTech by looking at the code, but have no reason to doubt his integrity in making this charge.
Not only is this an ethical issue, but it could become a legal issue if Andre decides to sue them.
This gets more interesting though, because Andre and Sonic have put a BUSL license on their Sonic-DB (Carmen) tech. It's different, because they are not copying anyone else's code, but even though the tech is open source to experiment with, it is not free to use and requires a paid license to use in production.
Now, the Sonic-DB tech is far superior to anything that exists in blockchain, so I understand the motivation of protecting their competitive advantage, but at the same time, everything in this space has been about free to use open source and this flies in the face of that.
The core issue to address though, is Aerodrome trying to take free code and turn it into proprietary. We need an answer as to their thinking behind this, because it is wrong if true.
