This point is intuitive: as real interest rates continue to decline, speculative activity in the cryptocurrency market accelerates, while the long-term demand for leverage increases, driving funding rates up, ultimately boosting Ethena's harvested yield

On farcaster what is called a “cabal” is in reality just some friends who selflessly helped you to build them paying attention to what you built and supporting it. Wholesome beyond belief.

I find bostrom’s simulation trilemma to be a bit self defeating - especially point about 3. then we must be living in a simulation - bit self referential. How do we differentiate between simulated minds and real minds? It feels a bit difficult to falsify and therefore as an argument it doesn’t quite resonate for me because it neither helps nor doesn’t help in a cogent argument about whether we are in a simulation or not Ok July, but what if we are in a simulation. Well, if that’s the case who’s simulating the simulators? How much recursion is there? What is the substrate that the simulator is running on and what’s preventing them from also falling into the same trilemma. But again, this is a philosophical excuse to hypothesize about possibilities, so I’m open to the idea. That being said, I’ve always thought it interesting that the exact amount of computation / energy to run a simulation of the universe, is the universe and its known energy of the universe (dark matter, dark energy aside)

In the third week of November alone, four listed companies added billions of dollars of collective debt to their balance sheets to buy Bitcoin, namely MicroStrategy, MARA Holdings, Semler Scientific and MetaPlanet. In addition, MicroStrategy has sold more than $6 billion in convertible notes to buy Bitcoin this year, and hedge funds have bought them for arbitrage bets.

with @frenpet, @cattown, @stokefire, @farcade, and others really starting to grow, it's essentially 2007 facebook platform era for gaming on @base. only difference is that now builders are on an open platform that *wants* them to go viral and *can't* take it away.

You must pay for conformity. All goes well as long as you run with conformists.
