RIP Scott Adams. I hope this inspiring quote of his lives forever:
“I have poor art skills, mediocre business skills, good but not great writing talent, and an early knowledge of the Internet. And I have a good but not great sense of humor. I’m like one big mediocre soup. None of my skills are world-class, but when my mediocre skills are combined, they become a powerful market force.”
@MmisterNobody When parents are around, life has a safety net you do not even notice. Once they are gone, the world feels quieter, heavier, and more final. You grow up overnight. Joy still exists, but it is different. Achievements feel less complete. Home never feels the same.
BE BORING
- Wake up early
- Go for a walk
- Get sunlight
- Lift weights
- Eat healthy
- Limit alcohol
- Cook at home
- Love your family
Boring is the new cool.
I say:
FED is going to cut by 50 basis points in September sending Risk Assets soaring into final highs.

"Children are happy because:
1) They're not self conscious
2) They lack a sense of time pressure
3) They've no goals.
The bottom line is they are living from moment to moment, and the mind is not there to interfere in their bliss."

The creator of Ethereum wasn’t Vitalik.
It was Gavin Wood who wrote the Yellow Paper, designed the EVM, and created Solidity.
Years later, he founded #Polkadot ( $Dot ) to fix what Ethereum couldn’t scale.
This is the story of the most underrated genius in Web3 🧵👇
Beste @vrtnws en ook @destandaard@hln_be@sporza@nieuwsblad_be e tutti quanti.
Sta me toe in dit draadje enkele gefundeerde bedenkingen te formuleren bij jullie berichtgeving over deze zaak (links naar de artikels achteraan in deze 🧵). 1/16
$DOT history is about to repeat.
10X rally has just started. Don't fade @Polkadot! ✍️
Massive adoption, institutions interest and growth.
Here's why I'm bullish on $DOT:
JAM Upgrade • A Scalability Revolution:
As of July 23, 2025, the JAM (Join-Accumulate Machine) upgrade, set to replace the Relay Chain with a modular, gasless, and hyper-scalable architecture, is a standout reason for optimism. With 38+ development teams actively building and millions in incentives, JAM promises parallel mini-blockchains, no parachain auctions, and native service execution, positioning Polkadot as a Web3 scalability leader by late 2025.
DeFi Ecosystem Surge
Polkadot’s DeFi ecosystem is thriving, with Total Value Locked (TVL) exceeding $300M and attractive APRs (18.63% on $ETH, 18.98% on $BTC). The upcoming vDOT/ETH pool launch on July 24 further enhances liquidity and $DOT demand, signaling robust growth.
Stablecoin Adoption Boost:
A new U.S. stablecoin law, signed by Trump, favors Polkadot’s chain-agnostic rails, driving adoption. Companies like Bastion and Ripio are shifting here, with USDT already live, tapping into a market moving more value than Visa/Mastercard.
Multichain Integration and Institutional Interest:
Polkadot’s integration with Uniswap V4, Arbitrum, and a pending 10-coin ETF approval (despite an SEC stay) highlights its multichain potential and institutional appeal.
Mainstream Adoption and Visibility:
Mainstream traction via FIFA Rivals, Messi’s Polkadot jersey, and Polkadot Cloud’s dApp platform boosts visibility and real-world use cases.
Undervalued & Growing Hype:
Despite being labeled “outdated” by some influencers, Polkadot’s quiet progress and rising community enthusiasm suggest it’s undervalued, with a potential breakout looming
Outlook:
With JAM, DeFi growth, stablecoin momentum, and mainstream adoption, $DOT’s fundamentals are strong for a 2025 rally.
