The California water release drama bs is truly next-level bizarre. Trump orders useless/possible dangerous water release that goes to Central Valley, claiming it’s PNW water that’s somehow going to SoCal? @patwater what’s the story. As unfolding it makes less than zero sense.

1. Superhuman has been a life changer 3. I personally am a fan of rolling 401(k) into Alto IRA and investing in a managed-futures/commodity trend following fund. It’s mark to market so you’re in a tax efficient vehicle, and trend following is well suited for the new era we’re in: geopolitical issues, inflation, rising interest rates, tariffs, etc

My belief in Ethereum has always been led by my belief in @vitalik.eth as the best crypto leader that we have. The way the recent drama has been handled has only strengthened this belief. Great leaders stick to their vision and do not capitulate to competitors taking shortcuts or mob mentality. It's easy to take shortcuts for hype. It's easy to capitulate to the mob. Those easy decisions create short-term Ws that cause a long-term L. Great leaders also adapt on their own time. Onwards!

There’s no better example of gaining legitimacy through authenticity than @vitalik.eth This has been true for a long time now. Nearly a decade ago one of the first and most “prestige” venture funds asked him to be an advisor. He turned it down. Now he could meet with any world leader and maybe he will on his time but there’s no need to force anything for perception.

As Musk and Altman trade barbs on social media, they're actually fighting over who gets to be the new robber barons – and we're left wondering whether anyone has the will or the means to stop them. This isn't progress. It's a heist. https://www.theindex.media/this-isnt-progress-its-a-heist/

I, like many, want a government to function and be boring. However, a casual Nazi salute on national television is enough for me to absolutely be a fucking nightmare for the corporate elitist world for the foreseeable future. Looks like my dance card is officially full, folks.

The Ethereum Foundation making concrete changes and being more vocal about their plans based on community feedback makes me really optimistic! Yes, it's a decentralized ecosystem and we should all be doing what we can but it's undeniable the EF has significant resources and reach so their work can certainly boost everyone else's efforts, especially app builders in the space trying to onboard new users and further use cases in Ethereum What I'm doing personally to support: - been building a company @bountycaster for the past year enabling more people to get paid out in crypto globally for their work (we self funded, I'm not taking a personal salary) - worked on the @ethereumfilm documentary the past 3 years with its mainstream distribution this year (I declined any compensation)

This is Trump's America, where the people cheer their own exclusion and call it victory. In the end, there was only ever going to be one winner. https://www.theindex.media/this-is-trumps-america-theres-only-one-winner-here/

A thing that has mildly surprised me about the warm-up to second Trump admin (overall surprisal is low) is the wholesale proactive corporate capitulation to his presumptive agenda. What is often called anticipatory compliance/anticipatory obedience. I expected 80%, we’re seeing 99%. Not a whisper of an open critical challenge or independent economic thinking, and very little preparation for stealth resistance either. Some of it is due to actual uncritical support but there’s a lot of suspension of dissent (visible and backroom) around obvious points of contention, like tariffs. The level of anticipatory obedience indicates that business imagines Trump will have far more power to punish and reward than he technically should. The business sector likes to metaphorically larp conflict and competition culture from military and sports but push come to shove is rarely a primary fighting force in political economy. It hangs back, avoids conflict, and lines up behind winners. It solves for survival, not truth.
