I just bought my first .@pudgypenguins. Excited to be apart of the huddle.

I’m confident .@LucaNetz is making the Mickey Mouse of Web3🫡

NFTs will make a comeback and most of the market will be offsides. Floor will be $50K+ in the next 3 months.

@ShaanVP Completely disagree with 17. If your brain has the bandwidth to listen faster, you should.

I listen to almost every podcast and audiobook at 3.5X.

Best way to increase the ROI of your passive learning time.

There will be 3 types of people in the future:

The Purists - reject AI and become new-age hippies

The Automatons - outsource every decision and become machines

The New Renaissance Man - maintains humanity and leverages tech to do what used to be impossible

Ever since I was young I knew I wanted to bring tokenized equities to the global south

[DAN KOE @thedankoe]

When calories became cheap, convenient, and abundant, bodies decayed.

Thinking is now cheap.

[vittorio @IterIntellectus]

people don’t realize this, but 2026 appears to be the first year in human history where humanity as a whole is below replacement fertility.

this has never happened before. not during wars. not during pandemics.

for the first time in human history, we are not producing enough children to replace ourselves.

this is the only real existential crisis.

[tree @treeonchain]

read something from atomic habits this week that has been stuck in my mind:

"It doesn't make sense to continue wanting something if you're not willing to do what it takes to get it. If you don't want to live the lifestyle, then release yourself from the desire. To crave the result but not the process is to guarantee disappointment."

[Aylo @alpha_pls]

The coins are now in the hands of the last few people that believed in this asset class.

Everyone else left to go to equities, pivoted to AI, or got carried out in 10/10.

The delusionally optimistic believers with the coins are not selling anytime soon.

[Alpha @alphadawgcrypto]

@chartchud LMAO

[Alpha @alphadawgcrypto]

If someone is shilling you a bag they are already up 4x on, you can disregard their comments about "it's still cheap".

They are now blinded by the return and can't be relied on to analyze the coin rationally.

Me: *Peter Thiel voice* so what is something that’s true that nobody else agrees with you on?
