Huge if true, $700B euros is massive, matches the annual US military spend. I have to imagine a ton there will be huge efforts to divest from American arms.

Reminds me of this article from Bret Devereaux: https://acoup.blog/2024/07/05/collections-the-philosophy-of-liberty-on-liberalism/ "When the time came to fight, the liberals fought"

Might be because it's relatively new to me, but been having a lot of fun playing around with rust/alloy lately

Week 7 of 5k until $5K

Was going to wait until tomorrow to run, but felt motivated by @gfam’s cast.

Week 8 of 5K until $ETH hits $5K

The end of my week is starting to look pretty busy, so I wanted to get this out of the way early. 

Shaved more than a minute off of Saturday’s time! 🏃🏻💨

We’re making a few changes to Warpcast Rewards this week: 

1. If you earn > $600 and live in the US, you’ll have to fill out a 1099 to collect further rewards.  

2. If we don’t know which country you’re in, we won’t be able to send you any rewards.

I really hope the new administration removes (or at least "massively increases") this retarded threshold of $600.

A business should be able to pay people at the very least $10K without having to issue 1099s...

I really don't like this outsourced financial surveillance. Not only is it financial surveillance, but the costs associated with it are put on businesses 🤬

I’ll admit it I would like to write some angel checks 

I’m not very capitalized off chain though. 

Have a couple grand everything else is earning better yield

Dickbutt

“Folks, I have to tell you—I’ve seen a lot of coins, a lot of them, some good, some terrible. But Dickbutt? It’s tremendous. Absolutely tremendous. Some people—very smart people, the best people—are saying it’s the greatest memecoin of all time. And you know what? They might be right!

They tried to stop it, folks. The fake news, the haters, the losers—they said it couldn’t be done. But $Dickbutt just keeps winning. Huge gains. And the name? It’s strong. It’s powerful. It’s funny—some say the funniest, and we love that.

And let me tell you, when we talk about memecoins, the market—it’s incredible. People are making a fortune. I know some very, very wealthy people—people who love America, by the way—who are all in on Dickbutt. Some say it’s even bigger than Bitcoin!

So, to all the Dickbutt holders out there—keep holding. Keep winning. And remember, the best is yet to come. Believe me!”

Sadly our time is almost up in the Bahamas .  So sublimely beautiful here, like a wonderland, but we need to start moving east in this disturbance in the trade winds next week. 

Hiked up to this ‘blue’ hole today.  Had an amazing green hue.

Accurate, not enough liquidity for everything 😅

love to hear the same truism in different ways

The joy and rhythm of dancing in the community spread among neighbors, enhancing their understanding, friendship and sense of belonging.

The journey of a ballet dancer is filled with countless sacrifices, both personal and professional, but the end result is a display of true artistry that leaves audiences in awe.

The intricate Odissi dance of India, one of the oldest classical dance forms, explores themes of devotion, philosophy, and human emotion.

a minimal, farcaster branded wallet goes kinda hard ngl

Was preparing for a long grind to implement frames V2 for Empire Builder - literally took me 30 mins to set up.

here are the top 5 swapped tokens from Warpcast Wallet so far:
1. $degen
2. $usdc
3. $higher
4. $gdupi
5. $moxie
