Only in America could a woman get engaged to a VC, have an affair with a mega-billionaire right before her wedding, get divorced, marry said mega-billionaire, have a ketamine-fueled fling with an even richer mega-billionaire (who himself has 11 kids with three women), get divorced again, walk away with a cool billion of her own, and become the running mate of a skinny-tie-wearing third-party presidential candidate who himself is the nephew of an assassinated president from six decades ago and the husband of the actress who played the TV wife of the guy who created Seinfeld, and who might actually be the deciding factor that tilts the election in favor of a billionaire who starred in the Celebrity Apprentice, had a cameo in the sequel to Home Alone, and one time shaved the head of the CEO of WWE on primetime television during WrestleMania 23.

Don’t you dare tell me this isn’t still the greatest country on earth.

20 months ago I made a major pivot in my professional life. My wife and I decided to take most of our life savings and start an autism therapy center for young children. Today we hit a major milestone. This is the story of our journey and the lessons learned along the way:

Count me among the people who think this is a bad idea.

There are no “experts” to adjudicate this issue, and many disparate actors will never agree. Committees and bureaucracy won’t solve anything.

As with many technologies, there are dangers, but we should keep marching forward with progress because the good outweighs the bad. The marketplace of ideas leads to better outcomes than central planning.

Don’t ever let fear stop progress, and be wary of anyone trying to capture control in some central authority.

I worked in bank liquidity and treasury for the better part of the last decade, and there is one very interesting risk factor from the SVB collapse that I do not think we have ever witnessed before in modern finance, a 🧵:

4/ We need to make sure that new technologies are encouraged to grow in the US, and not stifled by lack of clear rules. When it comes to financial services and web3, it's a matter of national security that these capabilities be built out in the U.S.

BREAKING: FTX had a “backdoor” built into its accounting software by SBF, which he used to move billions without triggering alerts to other staff, auditors etc - Reuters

[Will @WClemente]

He knew all along and was trying to get retail to buy FTT with these posts for weeks. Crazy.

centralized crypto-companies are just poorly regulated banks

ETH may not be net deflationary yet, but consider this:

Net issuance since The Merge is 2,200 ETH

If The Merge didn't happen, net issuance would've been 598,000 ETH

This is a ~$1 billion net reduction in issuance - and it's only been 50 days since The Merge

Another thing "I cant stress enough" is that we need blockchain ID and content authentication URGENTLY.

I have tweeted about this a few times recently because it is SO important

When I wrote my thread on Blur, I promised to follow it up with a contract review once the contracts were verified.

Well now they are, and I'm sorry to say that I didn't like what I found.

Happy merge all. This is a big moment for the Ethereum ecosystem. Everyone who helped make the merge happen should feel very proud today.
