🎗️ Yield for a cause 🎗️

Wanted to take some time to talk about an upcoming mint happening on @blastr_xyz today from @pasteltonesss you can find out more information about her story from her page.

If you're new to Blast and refundable NFTs. Here’s a quick summary on an upcoming charity drop, how yield works, and how you can get involved.

1. 🎗️Minting the NFT: Mint an NFT by depositing funds into a smart contract. The mint price is 0.028.

2. 🎗️Funds Locked in Contract: Your funds are locked, adding to the total value locked (TVL) on Blast.

3. 🎗️Generating Yield: While locked, your funds generate yield.

4. 🎗️Supporting LLS: The yield goes to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, supporting cancer research and patient care.

5. 🎗️Refundability: You can withdraw your initial deposit anytime, making it a safe, refundable investment.

This means you’re investing in the ecosystem and supporting a great cause without risking your initial funds.

What is Blast?

Blast is a Layer 2 blockchain designed native yield.

How to Mint a Refundable NFT

Here’s a quick guide to get you started:

1. Set Up a Wallet: Use MetaMask, Rabby, or another compatible wallet.

2. Bridge eth over to blast: I bridge through @Orbiter_Finance

3. Connect Your Wallet: Visit @blastr_xyz and connect your wallet.

4. Mint Your NFT

- Go to the NFT minting page for the charity project.

- Ensure you have enough BLAST for the mint price (0.028).

- Follow the steps to mint your NFT. Your funds will be locked, and you’ll get your NFT.

- Withdraw your initial deposit anytime if needed.

Blast has huge potential, and I’m excited to see what else we can dream up. Jump in, mint an NFT, and help support a great cause while earning yield.

@OliLondonTV used to go 15 years ago and camp, some of the funnest weekends i’ve had. way better than hotels or renting a house

@Marsbars1488 @JustElleRude @MmisterNobody the peter the dolphin thing was real and it was messed up, no argument. but pointing at one bad 1960s experiment to write off science is like pointing at one corrupt cop to abolish roads. science is why your life isn’t complete shit, fridge, AC, toilets, the phone you have etc

[wick.eth @j_wickwick]

@JustElleRude @MmisterNobody there’s no gotcha line, just hoping people can educate themselves. the less people believe in science the worse our world will be.

[wick.eth @j_wickwick]

@sawyeurism brain cells seem to be missing from a lot of people these days. have no idea how people can deny any of those things.

@EarthIsGrowing @LucasGageX yeah, that’s how film works. as processing technology advances the quality of the old photos goes up.

美国当年登月的时候，就怕你们不相信，安装了三台激光反射器在了月球表面，但凡有点实力的天文台，往那个坐标打一束激光脉冲，就能收到返回光信号，年年打年年收到，56年了没断过。全世界航天局都承认美国登月是真的，都2026年了，还有一群民科在造谣阿波罗登月是假的。

@JustElleRude @MmisterNobody it’s not trolling, i can recommend some good scientific books if you would like. if you don’t believe in science then i don’t really know what to tell you though.

[wick.eth @j_wickwick]

@miztergray @Kramersfarm @offgriddesigner I gave two analogies, neither was about jumping out of a car. Pick the one you think is wrong and explain why.

Velocity is shared by default. You only lose it if something takes it away.

[wick.eth @j_wickwick]

@JustElleRude @MmisterNobody no pretty much everyone who’s studied science at all believes what science can achieve and has achieved. the tik tok generation and the brainless karens are the ones who don’t believe it.

[wick.eth @j_wickwick]

@Kramersfarm @offgriddesigner if car is driving 100 miles an hour how is it still on earth if earth is orbiting at 66,000 mph?

if you jump for 2 seconds how come the earth doesn’t move 36.6 miles away from you?

@TBC_on_X this is like comparing a shitty soap opera to a 200m tv show

[wick.eth @j_wickwick]

@NACHOS2D_ hm maybe $50 quality lol. this is ass

Sam Altman was fired by his own board.

His co-founder Ilya left.

His top researchers left to start Anthropic.

His head of alignment quit.

He dissolved the safety team and its replacement.

He converted a nonprofit into an $850B for-profit.

He removed 'safely' from the mission statement.

His employees begged him to stand with Anthropic.

He said he would.

That night he took the deal they refused.

Then announced it on X like a victory lap.

And you still think this man is building AI for humanity?

[wick.eth @j_wickwick]

@sama it’s too late Sam

[wick.eth @j_wickwick]

@sama too late, claude pro for me now after paying for gpt for 4-5 years and using daily.

Anthropic responds to Hegseth.

Tonight, we reached an agreement with the Department of War to deploy our models in their classified network.

In all of our interactions, the DoW displayed a deep respect for safety and a desire to partner to achieve the best possible outcome.

AI safety and wide distribution of benefits are the core of our mission. Two of our most important safety principles are prohibitions on domestic mass surveillance and human responsibility for the use of force, including for autonomous weapon systems. The DoW agrees with these principles, reflects them in law and policy, and we put them into our agreement.

We also will build technical safeguards to ensure our models behave as they should, which the DoW also wanted. We will deploy FDEs to help with our models and to ensure their safety, we will deploy on cloud networks only.

We are asking the DoW to offer these same terms to all AI companies, which in our opinion we think everyone should be willing to accept. We have expressed our strong desire to see things de-escalate away from legal and governmental actions and towards reasonable agreements.

We remain committed to serve all of humanity as best we can. The world is a complicated, messy, and sometimes dangerous place.

@jack @blocks fuck off

Dear @AGPamBondi: You did the one thing your king ordered you not to do: you made Trump look guilty.

You also lied under oath.

And you surveilled the search history of Congress Members.

We are impeaching you when we flip the House. Unless you resign first.

Good evening.
