What am I most excited for, right now?

I tell you, I don't want to sleep. I will make content, because it grows the pie, but what I mostly wanna do is just DLMM with @MeteoraAG

If you aren't learning Meteora, then you a not out hustling the person next to you.
Instead, you are relying on luck, or you are attached to the cabal, or you are a KOL dumping on your minions.

Also big shoutout to @thegoosedao for accepting membership, and for the recent $PUMPAI airdrop, which was all staked.

I am damn excited for the LPing future. My feed it gonna be largely this, and ofc staking your SOL with https://t.co/UD8y1mdZap

So if DLMMing interests you, Ill be doing more interviews with expert DLMMers, like @GeekLad, as we get more content out on developing this skillset

Crypto cycles aren’t as simple as the ‘four-year halving’ myth.

In 2021, many believed endless money printing would fuel a long bull run. But the truth? Macro liquidity drives markets.

Metrics like M2 liquidity and the Fed’s balance sheet tell the real story. Focus on that.

Most people outside of crypto are still unaware of one of the biggest opportunities in the market right now.

If that’s not enough to catch your attention, what is?

Couldn't help but resonate with this 💎 MEMEPad was built with that exact problem in mind, and it's not just pump fun but several other launchpads who lack in DD practices and anti-run protocols.

Here's the concept you're looking for - It's been built https://t.co/mv1FPP8qWO
