This is still so far off from something Steve Jobs did Steve. Shapp said he wants to put 1000 songs in your pocket that was solving the problem. People want to take their music places there still needs to be massive demand VR that isn’t there yet but maybe one day it’ll get to the point where people have to have it. People will need to take VR with them
@HellDellthebull@ReddCinema Bro, you don’t think when Fall Out Boy tours in San Diego they damn well check in with blink-182 get that permission slip signed
@TKingg_88@_EagleTimes Fuck no he don’t give af. He had a good nil deal grew up rich . He has too much money for cte. lol I thought he’d be better . Hope he finds redemption on the titans
@BitcoinTeacher_ Dude, you’ll be so rich. Just don’t even pay the credit card in about seven years. It’ll fall off just keep a couple credit cards. Good let a couple fall off while your money multiplies.
Best-case scenario for the Trump-Xi summit:
A trade truce extended past the November tenth deadline — ideally six months to a year — so tariffs don’t snap back to triple digits. Reciprocal cuts on roughly thirty to fifty billion in non-sensitive goods: US energy, soybeans, medical devices one way, Chinese consumer goods the other.
China actually delivers on the farm side — twenty-five million tons of soybeans a year through twenty twenty-eight — and starts issuing real rare-earth export permits again, since magnet shipments to the US just dropped twenty-one percent in August.
The headline win: a formal AI safety dialogue — a notification channel between the two top AI powers for national-security-level incidents, plus a follow-up meeting scheduled. Not chip liberalization, not tech transfer — just guardrails and transparency, which Bessent’s already pitching as the low-hanging fruit both sides can claim.
Both leaders walk out with a win, markets get their stability signal, and the hard stuff — Taiwan, advanced chips, export controls — stays parked for Shenzhen in November.
The bar isn’t cooperation. It’s just not escalating.
@Mandrik Yes, people always need a new way to make money. It’s hard to tell someone you didn’t need bitcoin yesterday but you will need it today and you for sure need it tomorrow. It’s just a hard sale.
Yes, this cycle we are still heavily in a speculative asset cycle so my bet is a lot of the revenue tokens will survive in the very long-term short term things like Z cash and XRP or Ada things that do not have enough real users or demand for their services will eventually be left behind, but still may be a good investment today and tomorrow the risk is when Will the big money institutional investor finally have metrics to reject block chains tokens, things like that
Thesis: The winners in crypto aren’t the chains — they’re the apps that capture their own revenue.
Hyperliquid proved it. While Aster, Base, and Robinhood chased the same perps market, HYPE captured ninety-nine percent of trading fees into buybacks and burns. The token became the business, not just a bet on it.
Solana is the opposite bet — the ecosystem play. The apps (Jupiter, Pump, Raydium) generate real fees, but SOL itself captures only a thin slice. That’s why JUP and PUMP are the cleaner Solana revenue trades than SOL.
The shift coming: as speculation cools, capital rotates from chain tokens to revenue-generating apps. HYPE is the cleanest version today. JUP is the closest Solana equivalent. PUMP is the purest speculation with a real burn.
Buying Coinbase or Robinhood gives you EVM exposure through equity, not protocol revenue. Different bet, different risk.
The question was never which chain wins. It’s which token owns the fees.
Worth noting: this is a thesis, not a prediction. Agency rules can reverse, unlocks can dilute, and crowded longs flush without warning.
