Big movies for tBTC and @MezoNetwork 👏

"Price controls don't fight inflation.

They transform inflation into shortages."

In 2013 I went to a sushi dinner paid for in Bitcoin by a Forbes journalist.

If she had held onto those Bitcoin they would be worth $513,000 😅

"It's too late to buy Bitcoin, it's so expensive"

If you buy #Bitcoin right now, you are earlier than 97% of people on earth.

It's still so early.

After a Twitter back-and-forth, @KonstantinKisin appeared on @saifedean's podcast for a good-faith conversation about Israel/Palestine.

It quickly turned out to be anything but “good-faith”.

Judge for yourself tonight - 7PM UK / 2PM EDT.

Excited to announce @goasymmetric Bitcoin DeFi Fund's latest investment in @satflow's seed round!

We're huge fans of @robertjfclarke and the team!

For those who don't know, Satflow is building the best trading experience in Bitcoin DeFi.

If #Bitcoin is speculative, what do you call a $250k college loan with no guarantee of a job? 🤔

[Dan Held @danheld]

Bitcoin’s dominance this cycle could climb as Bitcoin DeFi continues to grab market share from other chains.

[Udi Wertheimer @udiWertheimer]

in the past when people raised concerns about swan, cory used to say “we make it easy to withdraw, just withdraw!”

note that he’s not telling people to withdraw this time 🤔

all while telling fantastical stories about “revenue up big” as he’s firing more than half his staff

[Dan Held @danheld]

Self custody your Bitcoin.

Not tomorrow.

Now.

(This includes your Bitcoin at Bitcoin-only companies like Swan, River, etc.)

More Europeans die from heat than Americans from guns annually.

An easily solvable problem with A/C.

But they have the audacity to say we’re the ones who are “backwards” 😂

[Dan Held @danheld]

Until prohibited speech moves beyond “racial hatred” and literally incorporates anything the government deems “wrong”

[Matt Luongo ✜ @mhluongo]

So, @MakerDAO is considering delisting WBTC, which makes up ~10% of DAI's backing.

I've been saying for the last 3 years that DeFi was coming to Bitcoin.

Don't sleep on it.

Will be a massive shift in the crypto ecosystem.

[Jameson Lopp @lopp]

"We shouldn't add X functionality to Bitcoin because it could be used to scam people" is incredibly shortsighted.

Any tool can be abused. We don't ban hammers because they can be used as weapons.

Realize that the best form of money will also be the best for scammers.
