LATEST from Seoul, South Korea — Late into the night at Olympic Park and Jamsil polling areas, determined crowds continue chanting ‘Re-election! Invalidate the fraud!’ after shocking ballot shortages disrupted the June 3 local elections. Protesters blocked ballot boxes for over 35 hours, refusing to allow counting amid allegations of electoral manipulation by the pro-China leftist government.

Hundreds to thousands gathered, waving Korean flags and demanding a full restart of the vote.

The National Election Commission (NEC) admitted major failures in ballot preparation — underestimating same-day turnout after heavy early voting, especially hitting conservative strongholds. NEC Chairman Roh Tae-ak resigned in apology, but protesters and opposition voices insist this points to deeper fraud, not just incompetence.

This comes against a backdrop of deep distrust following previous election controversies. Patriots are standing strong, calling for transparency, investigation, and protection of South Korea’s democracy from external influences. Freedom-loving Koreans won’t stay silent!

This is why OpenAI was created

@fsmdxb That’s a much more durable moat than any direct partnership.
Curious: do you think SWIFT and Ripple end up converging, or eventually competing for the same layer?

[Errrrrin Fang @ErrrrrinF]

@fsmdxb @Ripple Good catch. The headline is ‘partnerships’ - but the real shift is who owns the infrastructure layer.
If banks are custodying through Metaco and settling through SWIFT’s interoperability trials, Ripple doesn’t need to be the brand. It just needs to be the rails.

@fsmdxb That’s where the real long-term value lives

[Errrrrin Fang @ErrrrrinF]

@fsmdxb Good framing, but I’d push it one step further:
Scarcity × Utility = Value.
Land and trust hold value not just because they’re scarce; but because they meet real human needs. So the deeper question isn’t what’s limited, it’s what will humans still need that AI can’t replace?

For the past ~15 years I’ve been obsessed with one topic: financial freedom.

Since I was ~16–17, I’ve consistently invested a portion of my income.

Over time that compounds.

My current working framework for financial independence looks roughly like this:

• 70% dividend portfolio (~5% net yield)
• 30% growth portfolio (tech, momentum, innovation)

The idea is simple:

Live off the income, while still participating in growth.

@EmiratesSupport @emirates Why don’t you consider ZRH / Zurich? To my understanding the plane is already at the airport waiting to depart. When will be the first return flight to Dubai? @EmiratesSupport

After losing the civil war in mainland China in 1949, the KMT fled to Taiwan. The 228 purge led to 38 years of martial law, known as the White Terror. Until 1987, over 100,000 people were imprisoned for political reasons, with more than 1,000 executed. Discussion of the 228 Massacre remained strictly forbidden.

🇦🇪 In Dubai, over the Dubai Marina area, the air defense system shot down an Iranian missile.

An evacuation of people from the tallest building in the world, the Burj Khalifa, has begun in Dubai.

American officials believe that Iranian attacks could continue for days, possibly weeks, writes The New York Times.

This is so beautiful. Iranians are literally CELEBRATING. After nearly 50 years under an Islamic dictatorship, they’re finally going to be free.

Don’t let anyone tell you Trump didn’t do the right thing.

Roger Federer broke the internet with one statistic that will change how you see every setback in your life.
1,526 singles matches.
Won almost 80% of them.
20 Grand Slams. 103 titles.

Now answer honestly:
What percentage of total points do you think he won across his entire career?
70%? 65%? 60%?

Try … 54%.
He lost literally almost EVERY SECOND POINT he ever played for 24 years.

And still became one of the greatest of all time.

Watch him explain it himself (2:07 of pure life-changing wisdom):
“In tennis, perfection is impossible… When you lose every second point on average, you teach yourself to say:
‘Okay, I double-faulted — it’s only one point.’
‘Okay I got passed at the net — it’s only one point.’
Even a screaming overhead smash that ends up on SportsCenter Top 10… still just one point.

So when you’re playing your point, it has to be the most important thing in the world.
The moment it’s over — it’s behind you.

That mindset frees you to attack the next point, and the next, and the next with absolute intensity and clarity.”

Then he looked at the crowd and said the line that hit a billion people in the soul:
“The real sign of a champion is not that they win every point.
It’s that they lose again and again and again… and have learned how to deal with it.
Negative energy is wasted energy.
Cry it out if you have to. Then force a smile.
Move on. Be relentless. Adapt. Grow.
Work harder — and work smarter.”

Save this post.

The next time you lose a deal, bomb a presentation, get ghosted, miss a deadline, or just have “one of those days” — come back here and read it again.

You’re not falling behind.
You’re just in the 46%.
And the 46% is exactly where every single legend has spent most of their career.

Keep playing the next point.
