This is the year future millionaires are made.
Real wealth is built in bear markets, and we're living through one right now.
I'm literally shaking right now...
Three consecutive weeks of Bitcoin ETF outflows.
$1 billion the week prior. $1.26 billion the week after. Over a billion this week.
Somewhere in there, 65,000 traders got liquidated in a single day.
Spot Bitcoin. Self-custody. Not complicated.
$1.6 BILLION LIQUIDATED
$1.61 Billion notional value was liquidated from the crypto market in the past 24 hours. 85% of liquidations were long positions.
Stay safe traders.
That's a massive milestone - 1,000 breaches processed in @haveibeenpwned - and it got me wondering why the service is still needed? But you don't have to look far to see why: https://t.co/4NBrmga6u9
On this day in history 15 years ago, cypherpunk Hal Finney argued Bitcoin can never be replaced because,
“Any successful replacement of the Bitcoin block chain will forever undermine the credibility of any successor. How is an investor to know that it won’t happen again?”
What if the biggest risks to Bitcoin aren’t what you think? 🤔
I am super proud of this episode, and it was one I initially shied away from.
I sat down with Bitcoin expert @jimmysong to dig into Bitcoin Core, Knots, and ProductionReady, and what this emerging split in node software could mean for Bitcoin’s future.
We get into the trade-offs, the tensions, and why just running Bitcoin is becoming a more loaded statement than most people realise.
This conversation genuinely changed how I think about the network.

PICARD: Data, shields up
DATA: Brilliant! Shields can reduce damage we sustain. Not immunity. Not hubris. Just prudence. It's not precaution—it's strategy.

WORF: HULL BREACHES ON NINE DECKS
DATA: Here's what happened: you told me to raise shields, and I didn't
🚨 THE COMPANY THAT COULD BREAK THE MEMORY CARTEL IS ABOUT TO IPO.
Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron control 70% of global DRAM.
Goldman calls it RAMageddon.
Today the threat just got real.
🇨🇳 CXMT, China's national memory champion, just got Shanghai's green light for a $4.2 BILLION IPO.
The biggest listing since SMIC.
Corsair, one of the biggest American memory brands, already got caught putting Chinese chips inside their DDR5 kits.
The supplier? CXMT.
Their numbers are insane:
• Revenue just grew 8x in a single quarter.
• Profit grew 17x. Next quarter?
• They're targeting 25x.
• They will double production this year.
Now China is loaded with $4.2 BILLION in fresh capital, ready to undercut everything.
I found 110 ETH ($239,000) abandoned in dead Ethereum contracts & sent all of it back to the owners.
Stuck for years, recoverable through public functions nobody ever called.
Total gas to return a quarter million dollars: $0.87

The issue with crypto is that it used to be a way to make outsized returns by taking outsized risk. Last cycle, the only people that really made money were memecoin scammers.

People aren’t just complaining about Google's AI search overhaul, they’re leaving.
