When you make millions this cycle, anon, a true flex is a 2021 brick.

No roadmap, no utility, no token release, no devs. Just you and 499 other builders owning a piece of flawed and absurd art.

Remember that all government money is counterfeit.

Such money began as discrete quantities of a real commodity: silver or gold. Such money was used and trusted because it was a bearer proxy for this real good; the paper (valueless) a receipt for a quantity of metal (valuable).

And then the metal was stolen by the US Federal Government from all holders of the proxy instrument. The public was rugged, and now all government money is counterfeit, aka fiat.

That the world continued on without rebellion says something about how easily the masses may be deceived so long as a charismatic man with a flag pin stands before them.

When will he next appear before us? What illusion will we next be asked to believe?

The bill for this crime is paid every year by everyone holding fiat, as they see prices rise and struggle with the attendant consequences of being paid in an asset debased in perpetuity. They attribute their suffering to some phenomenon of nature, or to the greed of capitalists, rather than to that specific act of fraud on August 15 1971.

@ErikVoorhees Erik, when can we get Rabby wallet support on Venice app? 400+ wallets supported but not Rabby?

[T2s // X-Ray 🧱 @justT2s]

@ErikVoorhees So I tried this - initially just pasted a youtube link in Venice and it told me it wasn't able to scrape URLs; then I figured I should click on + button and found it. Is it not possible for Venice to automatically identify youtube links and it can in fact summarize it?

[T2s // X-Ray 🧱 @justT2s]

@AskVenice, @ErikVoorhees, is it possible to integrate with @Rabby_io on Venice iOS app?

Bad take

First, only in crypto (DEX's in particular) is there this kind of transparency. *Everyone* can see the action that this account took. Nowhere in tradfi is such a thing possible.

Second, that a whale likely had knowledge of a soon-to-be-public global news event, is not an indictment of crypto. It's an open, permissionless system. Anyone can use it, on the same set of rules.

What you're actually mad about is that someone had this special information and traded on it, and this is inevitable when markets are so bound to regulators and policy makers, who can cause such dramatic changes based on a single tweet.

Perhaps, perhaps, the real issue is that our markets have too much influence from such privileged political positions.

In crypto, everyone plays by the same set of rules, transparently.

In politics, everyone plays by different rules, opaquely.

Don't mistake the symptom (market reaction) for the disease (market coercion).

Not going to lie, never thought I’d say it, but kind of miss the good old crypto days.

Sure the fraud was off the charts, but all boats rose, everyone was having fun.

@R89Capital so... sell all your btc... in 2017

@AskVenice this UI doesn't feel right... why the tiny box?
why 10px fonts? I think I get why the design is minimalistic, but does it really work?

[T2s // X-Ray 🧱 @justT2s]

@AltcoinDailyio Because they can’t just buy one. They need to buy many in order for it to be worth it to them. And they won’t buy many until they or their financial planners feel safe enough about it, which they apparently don’t.

[T2s // X-Ray 🧱 @justT2s]

@ErikVoorhees is there a way to automatically figure this out without the extra click?

[T2s // X-Ray 🧱 @justT2s]

@ErikVoorhees The biggest reason I don’t use Venice is because there isn’t a native app. My daily workflow (and most everyone else’s) depends on the ability to switch between phone/laptop and have continuity of content between the two.
