An open letter to the veterans:
In life there are bad mfers… real bad mfers. The kind that bad men don’t mess with. And then, there are the selfless men and women of action that walk blindly into unimaginable danger in an attempt to, and with every intention of, preserving our good nation and the freedoms that we tend to take for granted. While not all of the actions of our government seem commendable, you have bestowed upon yourselves the responsibility to take a bullet for Americans if the occasion arises. You deserve far more than what you get. While we can’t do much about that, we can extend our hands to help you up and offer, at least, our undying gratitude for that choice. So, humbly, and from the bottom of our Steady hearts, we adore and appreciate you. But, you deserve so much more than this. More than a million thanks goes each and everyone of you. And to your friends that didn’t make it back, to them we are forever indebted. There are no words that can heal those wounds.
But, again, thank you. May your Veteran’s Day be filled with gratitude, free food, & free beer. 🍻
Avalanche holders have been through it. Other chains got the spotlight, hearing it's dead, wondering if anything was ever coming.
Then NYSE's affiliated platform picks Avalanche tech for its clearing and settlement layer. 24/7 trading, clearing, settlement. They tested multiple chains for over a year and this is where they landed. Massive credit to Ava Labs for the years of quiet BD work.
Meanwhile the Foundation is funding 6 research teams from Stanford, Oxford and Imperial on validator economics, fee burning and how value flows back to $AVAX. Institutions coming in while the token gets built to capture it is the combo we've waited for.
To anyone fading $AVAX because of the chart: look at what's under it. Price lags. NFA
We wanted value accrual to $AVAX to match the ETNA upgrades and capture future of value flowing from institutional adoption, so the top qualified people in this field from economists to tech founders and finance professors are making it happen. 🔺
The announcements from Avalanche and Avalanche Foundation this week have captured the moment, narrative, and attention of people everywhere. It caught many off guard who thought building in silence meant nothing was happening, and now they see how far along AL actually is in realizing their vision. Keep shipping 🚢
"Capturing that value sustainably is one of the key questions in our economic research agenda"
Now majin what capturing a fraction of the NYSE tokenized securities platform could do to avalanche-2:native if they pull the right strings 🔺
Just wanna post this here.
Avax has never been "dead" it's been consistently printing on-chain volume and fees for literally 5 years.
After some of the dog shit chains you all shill you should be ashamed to say you are a crypto KOL knowing that.
AND THATS WITH NEVER FOCUSING ON FLASH PAN SOLUTIONS FOR QUICK FAKE NARRATIVES.
opening a NYSE 🤝 Avalanche Video competition for today, tomorrow, and wednesday.. we'll be evaluating the winners on friday.
Make the best NYSE x AVAX 30secs MAX video and win
1st: $150 in credits
2nd: $50 in credits
3rd: $25 in credits
(we'll also have another competition coming this week)
I think this NYSE commitment is a good example of why I chose avax overall.
Years of bd and ethos building to be able to platform themselves to have the conversations, stature, and technical prowess to flirt with nyse.
If they only focused on flash in the pan narratives as so many have asked for, would we have seen something so impactful to the industry and avax? I dont think so.
For those who were surprised (and coping) by the NYSE announcment today, I will let you in on some alpha.
Value accrual to $AVAX WILL happen within this framework adopted by the Avalanche Foundation:
Measure -> Capture -> Distribute
A lot of thought, money, and time has gone into this. No other chain I can think of has overhauled their tokenomics and network security and recovered from it since the Merge on Ethereum. I plan on it making history.
