Wrote a thing on sports crowdfunding and earnings securitisations (Dinwiddie contract, @FANtiumOfficial)

So there was a company (fantex) in 2012 that bought a share of athlete's (NFL, MLB) all-time earnings and IPOd them. Didn't work, failed in 2017.

Built a little personal site using chatgpt.. man that was easy.. I remember using Dreamweaver to build my first site 15 years ago.. probably a 100x improvement

will use it as a sort of a journal for my master's thesis research (link in bio if anyone is interested)

[AG @verto0912]

there's really not much academic research on alternative methods of financing that athletes pursue.. maybe a bit on crowdfunding, some on social media monetisation.. but not much on the more unique and idiosyncratic strategies..

[AG @verto0912]

@FANtiumOfficial yes, would love to incorporate what you guys do into the thesis in some way or maybe do a side case study or smth exclusively on FANtium.

can't dm you though (don't have premium).. would you mind shooting me a dm to connect?

[AG @verto0912]

for my master's thesis, decided to explore how athletes' business skills and financial literacy influence their career earnings and post-retirement opportunities.. will research related area as well, like the evolution of athletic monetisation (@FANtiumOfficial, etc)

Of course you think the ETH ETF flows will be low. You're a first cycle BTC maximalist. You just finished some Bloomberg pundit, probably Seyffart.

You're gunna be convinced of that til next month when you get to kamikaz_FIAT, then you’ll be on about Grayscale unlock and how it’s gunna nuke it, you got that from his Twitter, November 23rd 11:23pm?

That's gunna last until the launch, you'll be here regurgitating Jack Mallers, talkin' about, you know, the Pre-shitcoin ETF era utopia before big banks decided to profiteer the industry, and how this is an attack on Bitcoin. Then you're gunna get to Balchunas, talking about Sister Hazel and small potatoes.

[Well, as a matter of fact I won't, because...]

Because he said it's gunna be hard to break into the 60/40 boomer world without a 5 second 30 IQ narrative, and Ethereum is too complicated? And how he estimated flows based on a garbage futures ETF that launched while ETHE traded at a 40% discount to NAV? You got that from Hal Press. Yeah I read that too. Were you gonna plagiarize the whole thing for us-- you have any thoughts of--of your own on this matter? Or do--is that your thing, you come onto CT, you read some obscure tweets and then you pretend, you pawn it off as your own-- your own idea just to impress some miladies, and embarrass ETH maxis?

[stunned]

See the sad thing about a guy like you is in about 50 years you're gonna start doing some thinking on your own and you're gonna come up with the fact that there are two certainties in life. One, TradFi KOLs believe in the flippening. And two, you fumbled all that PnL you coulda got if you just watched Larry Fink's TV appearances.

[Yeah, but I will have USDC, and you'll be schizoposting on CT]

Yeah, maybe. But at least I won't be Retardio.

Why is this cycle cooked? Why is everyone miserable?

We can distill all of our problems down to the fact that retail can no longer make real money in the current market structure

[Gwart @GwartyGwart]

The guy who spent time in prison for securities fraud and jacking up the price of insulin 50x has entered our industry and is publicly calling out scams and being a voice of reason which makes me think maybe we’ve underestimated how much of a cesspool this place really is tbh

@blockgraze they need to learn cause sizing, risk and leverage are all personal preferences, unless you are professionally running money and are constrained by investment guidelines.
