Someone said to me yesterday that the era of easy money in crypto is over.

If that's true (I don't know if it is), then there's a good chance that most of you are wasting your time here.

The reason is that almost everyone you see today who has achieved some level of success started their journey during one of these easy-money cycles.

Whether it was buying BTC in 2012, getting into DeFi early, trading NFTs in 2021, memecoins in 2024, or InfoFi in 2025, the pattern is the same.

You can't go from zero to one without an easy-money cycle.

So if you're at zero now, there is a chance that you will stay there

Benzinga asked me about quantum computing and Bitcoin.

The answer… Bitcoin is more secure than the dollars sitting in your bank account.

Quantum will crack the banks long before it touches the blockchain.

Everyone's panicking about quantum breaking Bitcoin's encryption while banks are running on legacy infrastructure that makes Bitcoin look like Fort Knox.

Even if something happened to the blockchain, the full node operators can roll back to the last secure block. The network survives.

The dollar and banks don't have that option.

At some point, Bitcoin eclipses the dollar entirely as retailers begin to accept bitcoin, and then they decide they only want to accept bitcoin.

Read the full Benzinga interview to see what else we covered.

Letting AI trade crypto for you sounds wild and honestly a little scary… but also kinda inevitable? If the guardrails are solid, this could change everything.

#DeFi Who's actually gonna trust this first?

I've been building DeFi for almost a decade and we went from zero to here:

- Over 300b stablecoins issued onchain
- Protocols that actually make revenue, all verifiable onchain
- Billions in stablecoins yielding interest directly onchain
- More safer ways to trade or lend (no ftx custody risk)
- Embedded wallets that bring more users and are easy to integrate (i.e. Privy)
- Fintechs and e-commerce platforms issuing stablecoins (PyUSD, SoFi, Western Union, Moneygram)
- Big fintech involvement (Stripe with Tempo)
- Fintechs integrating defi (i.e. Whop integrating Aave)
- Almost all relevant major banks and asset managers have digital asset teams and also working on tokenization, stablecoins and defi (Fidelity, BlackRock etc)
- Genious act regulating stable coins and removing uncertainty to enable fintechs and TradFi to participate
- Clarity act coming, creating more certainty for crypto and defi
- AI tools for defi security hardening and improved overall development process since early days
- EU has MiCA certainty and UK following up
- Banks banking crypto (Erebor etc) and better onramping

The industry progress has been real, and will take of course years to come to see full adoption. We are closer now than ever before, yet moving 8 billion people onchain will take time.

I think that we are in front of a moment where underlying tech is starting out-phases the crypto-native assets. It make sense for stablecoins to have bigger market caps that Bitcoin and Ethereum as world is moving onchain over time. Same thing will happen with trading and lending as more assets are tokenized and will grow directly onchain. This is net good for the ecosystem.

It seems that fintech and tradfi is doubling down on blockchain like never before.

The best way to progress is by building, and we have some of the smartest builders in the space, true believers that build with a real mission are still here.

At some point crypto, defi, stablecoins, rwas are doing to be just called finance. No tribalism, no drama just boring tech that works and scales.

Tom Lee is getting absolutely laughed at for his bet on Ethereum.

Good.

Thinking 10 years ahead isn’t always appreciated.

History is full of business titans who were laughed at for seeing the future too early:

Elon Musk: “Electric cars are weak & lame."

Jeff Bezos: “Selling books… online? Stocks down 99%”

Jensen Huang: “GPUs are just for video games.”

Steve Jobs: “Touchscreen? App marketplace? Smart?”

Jack Dorsey: “A 140-character social network? Who would use it?”

These visionaries weren't crazy.

They were just early.

Ethereum is a nascent industry exploding with growth.

Don’t be so quick to bet against technology.

Don't be so quick to count crypto out.

portfolio's red, I'm wide awake at 3am questioning every decision I've ever made. portfolio's green, somehow still can't sleep. might be cooked but honestly? still not selling.

[jet @borax_crystal]

Been thinking about this all day tbh.

[jet @borax_crystal]

been reading about game theory all afternoon and now i can't stop seeing every market move as some giant chess match lol. my brain is cooked. crypto doesn't help either, it's just game theory on chaos mode fr

[jet @borax_crystal]

UK banks blocking crypto transfers is measurable censorship of legal assets. Organized complaints create paper trails regulators can't ignore. This is how policy actually shifts. #StandWithCrypto

Watching closely — are you filing complaints?

[jet @borax_crystal]

Wanted to add — still early days.

[jet @borax_crystal]

3am city streets hit different when your mind is quiet and your portfolio is green. something about streetlights and solitude makes you realize none of it really matters… and somehow that makes it matter more.
