$MAX
I'm betting on Saxon not being hacked.
1) The weird shift from openly hating crypto people (not just today, he's been like this for years) to launching his own coin actually feels autistic enough to be genuine. If this were a hack, I don't see why the hackers would bother maintaining such a weird, ambiguous stance.
2) Elon followed him just two days ago. Feels a bit hard to believe a hacking team could pull off a SIM swap, prepare an AI video and execute the whole thing in just two days.
3) I bought before the video was uploaded, so whether it's real or AI doesn't matter much to my thesis. But since we're on the topic, I honestly doubt AI could replicate that level of autism so convincingly. Even Fable's check puts the AI probability on the lower end.
4) The Streamflow lock is admittedly the weirdest part. I can buy a billionaire's son launching a coin, but locking it for 40 years is a pretty hilarious image.
5) I think people assume it's a hack precisely because the whole thing is so fucking retarded. I'm just betting he's actually that retarded.
KBW 시즌마다 의문인 점
이맘때쯤이면 거의 모든 김치 텔방이
- 도시락 쳐먹는 사진
- "오늘은 노무현님을 만나고 왔습니다" 류의 좆목글
- 애자같은 굿즈 디너 짤방
- 사이드 이벤트 정보 오조오억개
등으로 도배가 되곤 하는데 이때마다 풀리지 않는 의문이 생김
1. 코인 텔방 보고 있는 사람의 목적은 세일, 내러티브, 트렌드, 마인드셋 등등 돈으로 연결될 정보 얻는 것 외엔 없음
2. KBW 티켓 가격은 일단 애미가 뒤졌고, 돈 벌려고 코인 텔방 보고 있는 리테일이라면 KBW는 갈 일도 없고 가서도 안됨
3. 따라서 읽는 사람 입장에서 KBW 좆목 대서사시는 관심도 효능도 재미도 없을 공산이 큼. 쓰는 사람도 솔직히 이걸 알고 있음
4. 한 스텝만 솔직해지면 모두가 동의할 이야기 같은데도 매년 거의 모든 텔방이 KBW 일기장이 됨
5. 코스프레 젖탱이 사진이라도 올려주면 든든한 도움이 될텐데 그것도 아니고 매년 똑같은 이야기의 반복임
6. KBW측에서 광고를 뿌리는 건 아닐 것 같음. 이걸로 문의 받아본 적은 없었음
7. 매번 쓸만한 글 올린다는게 지난한 일인건 알지만 도대체 왜 모두들 이 굴레를 매년 반복 중일까? 외국도 이런가?
※ 저중에 친구들도 꽤 있고 저격 의도 없음. 걍 순수 의문임

Feels like everyone’s possessed by something here.
The dev behind what was supposedly an “academic” coin has already cashed out over $1M and is still sitting on a double-digit % bag.
I do regret not pre betting on the chance that Elon would interact with it without knowing a damn thing about what’s going on, but this still has a very high chance of ending in a full on gangbang. (I’m pretty sure the Doge designer is tweeting right now without having any idea what’s actually happening either.)
Bought around $21K $motion

Ancient Cosmos garbage chain + literally can’t even chart it anywhere outside the official web + UX that feels like it was designed for my grandma.
But pretty much every team in the ecosystem, including the INJ CEO is united in shilling it(CEO owns 56% of the supply.)
The “cat runner for each chain” play is so tired it makes me yawn but when the entire ecosystem is pushing the same thing, I think it’s actually a pretty playable setup. and It’s not like INJ has never had a high cap meme before.
Ironically the dogshit accessibility I mentioned above might even be a feature here.
Looks like the only bridge that actually works is https://t.co/avUCmSQPF3. The traditional bridges only support tiny amounts if you want to avoid getting nuked by slippage.
Personally I just installed Keplr, withdrew INJ directly from a CEX and bought it that way.
@ericinjective If your team is watching $Cashcat and $Basecat and wants a nice exit for the rest of your INJ bags, swap every last INJ you’ve been keeping for ecosystem support into $MOTION.
I personally don’t really understand the Pump vs Fomo debate (The whole argument over which platform is better for an unknown trader to build an identity, get famous and become some kind of trench hero feels backwards to me.)
If you’re actually trading in the trenches, instead of debating that, you should probably ask yourself what you actually want to become: an influencer or a trader.
If what you want is to be an influencer — the kind of retard KOL with zero long term track record, no real skill besides farming engagement by attacking people and surviving off paid promos — then sure. Use whatever gets you famous the fastest. Attention is the product.
But If what you want is to be a trader, I think you should almost be optimizing for the opposite. Stay unfamous.
To me, fame for a trader isn’t glory. It’s poison.
Once a trader becomes a hero, a community forms around him. And because you’re human, at some point you start wanting to live up to their expectations. That desire is exactly what stops you from pressing the sell button when you’re supposed to. And what do you get in return? A roundtrip, negative PnL and the same people who worshipped you yesterday mocking and insulting you today. Think about the amount of money @theunipcs and @CrashiusClay69 could have locked in during their prime. They could have sold but they didn’t. They ended up crushed under a Tower of Babel built from the eyes and expectations of their own followers, and gave back most of their unrealized PnL. (I respect them for it, genuinely.)
But if you’re a trader, not an influencer, you need to be able to sell when it’s time to sell without giving a fuck what anyone thinks. The people flaming you on Twitter are not going to take responsibility for your life.
There’s basically one meaningful upside to becoming well known as a trader: you might get invited into high quality grinding groups with some of the best people in the space. And you don’t even need 100 followers for that.
The people who are worth knowing already recognize each other onchain.
said the V2 launch would mark the top but turns out the V2 announcement was the top. Half right I guess.
Money is money and I’ll always play these setups, but personally I still don’t see the point of launchpad tokens, no matter how convincingly people try to dress them up. Especially in a liquidity starved market like this, they’re basically just choking their own ecosystem.
Thoughts on $PONS
First off the $PONS trade itself — betting on the next launchpad after Noxa nuked — was basically an IQ test. Just the same obvious launchpad hype trade we’ve seen a hundred times. Missing it was inexcusable. I’m holding my dick and reflecting.
But that’s all it is: the usual “new hyped launchpad” play. Structurally there’s nothing different here. It doesn’t even have a convincing catchphrase like Launchcoin’s “Internet Capital Markets.” It’s just looting the vacuum Noxa left behind.
This also isn’t some rediscovery setup like $GP trading under $20M while $Useless was already at $230M and proving there was a runner in the category. People flexing the current revenue and spamming “do the math” just looks like a short term spike from farming Noxa’s empty lane.
A launchpad token pumps first, then people force random runners into existence beneath it — strip away the bias and look at it objectively so this is basically the Robinhood ver EtherVista.
Pons team isn’t running a charity. They need to make money, and I don’t think they can ship an update powerful enough to break through the current upside ceiling — because doing so would essentially require them to give up the revenue they’re making.
My guess is that the V2 launch marks the top for $PONS, just like $KTA topped on the day its testnet officially launched.
I hope I’m wrong.

Brian’s unbelievably braindead behavior just handed Vlad the perfect opportunity to put a “DEAD CHAIN” collar on Base and drop it off at a stray dog shelter.
At this point, Vlad only needs to do one thing that lights the fuse—a tweet, a PFP change, a listing, literally anything—and reopen Hood szn 2 for even 3 to 7 days. That alone could be enough for Robinhood to steal all the mindshare and volume Base spent the last 3 years building.
Of course there’s always a chance nothing happens. But it’s hard to believe that someone who already put his massive ego aside, started saying the chain works well for memes and followed memecoin accs would just let an opportunity like this pass.
As far as I’m concerned, this is the bottom for HOOD.
