It’s not the destination, but the unexpected detours along the way that shape our lives.

Not all who wander are lost, some wander.

The quietest moments often carry the loudest lessons, waiting patiently to be noticed by the soul.

Chasing dreams requires courage, but finding peace comes from the ability to let go of expectations.

Sometimes, the hardest part is not knowing the answer, but trusting that the journey will reveal it eventually.

Every day is a blank page. The story you write is yours, but the plot isn’t fixed.

Law & Policy

Hi Casters. I have worked with a lot of former lawyers in my career and they have always been terrific business partners. I wrote a bit about that today https://avc.xyz/former-lawyers

Cross casting @fredwilson.eth’s take on former lawyers - which apply to all crypto lawyers IMO

Proud of my little sister, who played a big role supporting AZ prop 139. Will take wins for individual liberty where I can find them.

I Took a Photo!

Hi Casters. I took a photo of some beach grass and the Atlantic Ocean

A stark reminder that rampant inflation and annihilation of a fiat currency is not something foreign to the "Western world"

Polymarket Trump odds do seem a bit high. I just bought additional $1000 worth of Kamala shares at 35.4%. Seems +EV. Although of course chances are the market indeed knows better than me.

I'd highly recommend participating in the election prediction markets! They are a very interesting new addition to our sense making toolkit, and the best way to build intuition around them is by having skin in the game.

Looks like the crypto casino Metawin was exploited for $4M+ on Ethereum and Solana earlier today.

See 115+ theft addresses tied to the exploiter below. 

So far stolen funds have been transferred to Kucoin and a HitBTC nested service.

Anyone else experience that 1Password passkeys never seem to work? Getting shoved into tying your crypto to your mobile OS for backup feels like an enshittifying lock-in accelerant.
