I’ve spent the last few years doing my best to draw fun art, to keep learning, and I’m grateful for every step it’s taken me.
I don’t know what 2026 will bring, but I will splash a lot of color on it 🎨🧪

If you have apes not on a hardware wallet, reach out to us.

If it’s the anxiety of moving them over, we’ll sit on a call with you and explain step by step how to move them over. Free.

If you don’t have a hardware wallet, we’ll find a way to get you one.

I think Dung Eater likely lived and died in this earlier era (when Marika still has both braids and the RoD isn’t sealed yet), and is later revived as a Tarnished.

So rather than him “staying behind” during exile, it fits better that:
- He existed before or around the early Golden Order
- His body/corpse belongs to that time (the hanging scene). His essence/curse persists. And he is brought back later alongside the Tarnished.

I think it makes sense especially because tarnished aren’t limited by when they died… they’re recalled by Grace across time. And Dung Eater’s whole theme is defilement that transcends death and eras.

So the timeline could be:
Early Golden Order (Marika with two braids) - Omen curse already emerging (horned child) - Dung Eater lives and dies (defiled corpse)
Then later: Tarnished return, and he’s among them again.

That keeps everything consistent without needing to rewrite how exile works, just leaning into how Elden Ring treats time as something… less linear.

George R.R. Martin has shared his thoughts on the Elden Ring movie, and he's keeping it simple: "A24 is a kickass studio, and Alex Garland is a first rate director."

Martin helped build the lore of Elden Ring alongside FromSoftware, so his backing carries weight. The film has a budget well over $100 million, making it A24's most expensive project ever.

Over the past few years, I’ve woken up to random @CoinDesk articles shitting on our industry, and specifically NFTs.

That alone wouldn't bother me. Criticism is healthy. The press should hold this space accountable.

But while Coindesk takes $ 300k+ to write glowing “research” around companies in crypto, they also write ragebait headlines that shit on the same industry.

Pretty annoying to see.

It’s bad journalism to ask for $ 300k+ for an article, and if we don’t pay, you write negatively about us.

There are so many other news outlets actually trying to make it by covering bright stories in our industry.

There are so many other twitter spaces and communities that show up daily to move the space forward.

But what Coindesk is doing can’t be a sustainable model.

So a few weeks ago I opened up a short position on Coindesk’s parent company, Bullish.

This isn’t about money, it’s about principle.

The principle: you can’t hurt our community for your corporate gain.

Why can a business shit on an industry it participates in and still aim to profit within it?

Well, it can’t.

That was my bet anyway.

I’ve now closed the short up $5,387.46.

To be clear: the position is closed. Nothing I write here profits me from a trading standpoint. The trade is over. What's left is the principle.

I will use the money to take Bored Apes out to dinners, or Laker Games, or whatever the fuck I want - and every time I do, I will post an entire article about how I got the money (shorting Coindesk) and why I think Coindesk’s current approach is bad for our industry.

Congrats Coindesk, you’re now at war with a fucking psycho.

I will relentlessly bearpost this behavior until a representative reaches out to me and assures me that they’re going to knock this shit off.

@mfigge @0xPretzels @CoinDesk Absolute legend. Couldn’t agree more!!

[Line | The Valkyrie @LineTheValkyrie]

I'M SO EXCITED! If you know me, you know I've spent an unhealthy amount of hours playing the game and watching lore videos....
OK so if the film is confirmed post-Shattering of the Elden Ring, that already narrows the potential of different stories we could see, in an interesting way.

Because that means we’re not seeing the inciting events directly:
the Night of the Black Knives is already history (Godwyn’s soulless corpse spreading Deathroot under the Lands Between),
Queen Marika the Eternal has already shattered the Ring in defiance of the Greater Will,
and Radagon has already failed to reforge it, despite literally being the same being.

So we’re stepping into a world where:
the demigods have Great Runes but can’t assert dominance,
the war between Radahn and Malenia has already reduced Caelid to a Scarlet Rot biome,
the stars are held in stasis,
Leyndell is still standing ONLY because Morgott refuses to let it fall despite being spurned by the Order he defends.

Like… super thematically dense. Very Elden Ring, as I love!

But that’s EXACTLY why I’m leaning toward and hoping for Roundtable Knight Vyke as the protagonist.

Because if you actually follow the item descriptions and environmental storytelling, Vyke isn’t just “a Tarnished who failed”....he’s the benchmark.

A Dragon Cult knight.
Closest to becoming Elden Lord.
Invited into the inner circle of the Roundtable Hold when it actually meant something.

Which means narratively we could see:
Grace still functioning (barely),
the Two Fingers still attempting to impose order,
and a version of the world that hasn’t fully collapsed into the entropy we explore as players.

And then the turning point, Vyke reaching the Mountaintops, encountering the Three Fingers, and making a conscious rejection of the Golden Order.

Not out of madness at first, but as a philosophical endpoint:
he’s seen the stagnation, the half-death of Godwyn, the rot, the endless war with no victor…

and decides that annihilation (Frenzied Flame) is more honest than repair.

A multi-POV structure could also go insanely hard;

Vyke’s journey and glimpses of:
Rykard willingly being devoured in blasphemy,
Radahn holding back the stars even in madness,
Malenia blooming again and again,
Morgott guarding a throne he’ll never be allowed to claim.

I don’t know… the fact that it’s post-Shattering means we’re dealing with a world that’s already spiritually dead but physically lingering.

And Vyke is literally the closest thing that world had to a second chance.

If they lean into that tragedy instead of a generic hero arc… this could be so unreal holy shittt.
