I respect the Hindu community in the UK

This is biblical.

A woman in her eighties. Ten years into Alzheimer's. Hadn't spoken a full sentence in five years.

Takes one, 5 gram dose of psilocybin.

She slept 19 hours and woke up and spoke for hours about her life, recognized family and held real conversations. She regained bladder control after five years, walked on her own. and dressed herself. Gains held for weeks.

⚡️Bitcoin is the strongest monetary property-rights technology humanity has produced so far.

That is the part people either see or refuse to see.

Gold gave physical scarcity.

Fiat gave state liquidity.

Bitcoin gives verifiable digital scarcity with global settlement and no discretionary issuer.

That combination is why it keeps surviving.

That combination is why institutions are being pulled in.

That combination is why governments eventually have to treat it as strategic infrastructure rather than internet money.

The deepest read:

Bitcoin is not the best technology for every use case.

It is the best technology for one specific civilizational use case:

Holding monetary value outside the corruption radius of human discretion.

Andrew Kang says Peter Thiel and Chamath might have made more money if they had just held their Facebook stock

“If you look at some of the best-known investors, like Peter Thiel or Chamath, they sold all their Facebook stock at the IPO. They’ve made a lot of great investments, but they might have outperformed if they had just held their Facebook stock instead of doing 100 other things.”

“Humans have the itch to find the next best thing and to take profit when something goes up a lot. But we underappreciate the fact that the universe is almost infinite, and so is the TAM for some of these really great companies.”

“It’s the longer-term stuff that outperforms. Probably 90% of people would tell you they wish they had just held Bitcoin from 2019 or 2020 and done nothing else. Or just held Apple, Google, Nvidia, or Amazon.”

It. Is. Done!

No caste bill in New York that would have singled out & targeted Hindu, Indian & South Asian New Yorkers!

Legislators in 6 states have tried to institutionalize discrimination against our communities—all of these attempts have failed.

Why?

Because the US Constitution is clear: equal protection for all.

[Robert Scoble @Scobleizer]

Belief.

This morning a former friend called me, angry that I was continuing to support @elonmusk and @Tesla.

“How could you support a Nazi?”

Then went on and said that a ton of Silicon Valley leaders also were Nazis and are building camps, preparing for rounding up Jews.

Been thinking about that all day and have thought about it many times before.

While I don’t know what actually is going on in people’s minds I look at actual things I have visited and seen with my own eyes.

I have visited factories all over the world and the Tesla factory in Fremont at the heart of Silicon Valley is the most diverse factory in the world.

By far.

I studied it in depth. Often go there and watch workers get out of it. And often talk to them.

Have met blacks, Jews, gays, and immigrants from around the world.

You can not name a factory with more cultures and more diversity at it.

It is almost like Elon has a secret DEI program underway.

And every neighborhood in Silicon Valley is the same. My sons’ public high school has something like 60 different languages spoken by kids there.

And when I go to meetings in San Francisco and Silicon Valley I see the same. Meet people from all over the world. From all sorts of different religious and cultural backgrounds.

So if Elon is a Nazi he sure doesn’t hire that way.

And I am a proud supporter of both them, and the guy who hired them.

They make the best products.

And that is my belief from the fast lane as my eight-year-old Tesla drives me to San Francisco to have dinner with a group of entrepreneurs who moved here from India.

[Brian Armstrong @brian_armstrong]

People still think (or feel) because Bitcoin is down crypto is down.

Derivatives/perps, stablecoins, prediction markets, etc are all up in crypto.

Crypto touches every area of finance, and is much broader than Bitcoin now. It will take some time for this to sink in.

(And yes - Bitcoin is going to do great and is as important as ever - one of many cycles we've all been through.)

[The Husky @Mr_Husky1]

She ate lunch alone for 730 days straight. What this 16-year-old built from that pain now protects millions of kids worldwide.

Seventh grade. Natalie Hampton carried her tray through a packed cafeteria and felt it — that specific, suffocating dread of not knowing where to go.

She'd already learned what happened when you approached the wrong table. The silence. The turned backs. The whispered laughter that followed you all the way to the empty table by the wall.

The one everyone could see.

The one that said: nobody wants her.

For two full years — 730 consecutive lunches — that table was hers. Alone.

The bullying went further than whispers. She was shoved into lockers. Four physical attacks in two weeks. She came home with scratches and bruises. When she finally reported it, school administrators sent her to counseling — to find out what she was doing wrong.

The isolation grew so heavy she was hospitalized for anxiety.

Then ninth grade came. A new school. And almost overnight — everything changed. Students welcomed her. She made friends within weeks. She finally knew what safe felt like.

But she couldn't stop thinking about the kids still sitting at the wall table. Right now. Today.

She remembered what she'd needed most during all those lunches. Not a teacher. Not a pamphlet. Just one person saying: "You can sit with us."

So at 16 — with zero coding experience and "a lot of enthusiasm," as she put it — Natalie built exactly that.

She called it Sit With Us.

The idea was simple and genius: students sign up as "ambassadors," keeping their table open. Other kids privately browse available tables on their phones before ever walking into the cafeteria — and show up knowing they're already welcome.

No public rejection. No moment of judgment. Just a guaranteed seat.

Within 7 days of launching: 10,000 downloads.

Then the world found her. NPR. The Washington Post. CBS News. Messages from Morocco, Australia, the Philippines, France — kids who'd been eating alone for years, finally finding a place to belong.

Sit With Us now operates in 30 countries.

"Even if it helps one person," Natalie said quietly, "it was worth building."

She turned 730 lunches of loneliness into a lifeline for millions.

That's not just survival. That's transformation.

[Stop Hindudvesha @IHindudvesha]

BAPS should have been the moment a lot of Hindus woke up.

Think about it. For years we were told this temple was proof of trafficking, forced labor, exploitation, everything. Federal raids. International headlines. Activists treating the case like it was already solved before the investigation had even finished.
Then the DOJ closed the case without finding evidence of trafficking or forced labor. That should have ended the story. Instead, it simply changed to continious media vilification.
And honestly, if you've been paying attention, you've seen this movie before. @Cisco case was supposed to prove caste was thriving inside Silicon Valley. Prosecution found no proof.
Anti-caste campaigns were supposed to prove Hindu professionals carried oppression wherever they went. Again, NO PROOF!
Funny how the target keeps changing but the conclusion never does.
A Hindu engineer. A Hindu temple. A Hindu organization. Doesn't matter.

The intentional plotted weaponization of Wikipedia against India and Hindus to spread lies and hate is being uncovered and should never have been allowed!🇮🇳🇺🇸

[Sidharth @Cloudwatch199]

HOLY SHIT.

The Wikipedia expose on HAF just confirmed what many Hindus have been saying for YEARS.

A tiny network of leftie activist editors hijacked pages related to Hindus, Hindutva, caste, and India and turned Wikipedia into a propaganda machine.

They have smeared Hindu organizations as “extremist,” “nationalist,” and “fascist adjacent” while sanitizing and protecting activist groups openly hostile to Hindus.

And the scariest part?

This garbage doesn’t stay on Wikipedia.

It gets fed into Google searches, media narratives, academia, AI systems, and public perception worldwide.

A handful of anonymous editors can effectively shape how BILLIONS of people understand Hindus and India.

People mocked Hindus for warning about coordinated information warfare.

Turns out they were right.

[Richard Hanania @RichardHanania]

India has sent 96 people to America who started billion dollar companies. No one else is even close.

There's only about 5 million Indians in America. Almost one in 50,000 of them is a unicorn founder!

What a holy, special, beautiful people.

I will always fight for them.

today is a big day.

@coinbase is now live in india with direct INR rails.

what this means:
- direct INR deposits + withdrawals, no deposit fees
- local INR orderbooks; which means deeper and real domestic liquidity, not thin global prices
- spot, perps + futures with upto 50x leverage
- APIs, websocket streaming, institutional grade execution
- FIU-registered, fully compliant

you lay infrastructure this deep for a market you’re already all in on.

india was always the bet to make. 🇮🇳

1- the corp drinking lifestyle is real and bad

2- both sexes do this. men also do the same thing and blow up their marriages and families.

3- trust me, no amount of alcohol, “prestige”, or casual sex will be worth it when you live like this

Scenes from Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Kurnool, and elsewhere during the alleged celebrations following RCB's IPL triumph.

A private club owned by private businesses wins a domestic trophy, and you resort to vandalism, violence, and public disorder.

Why are we always so eager to adopt the West's worst habits and so reluctant to emulate its best practices?
