My 2025 resolution is to keep becoming even more myself

HIGHER

Who has the best answer to this question?

Why should a cracked developer or designer who could theoretically create their own successful brand plug into Higher?

Higher is like Stripe Press.

You could publish your book anywhere. Great books and writers get attention anywhere.

But when you pick Stripe (and they pick you), it says something important to a specific group of ppl. It’s a strong credible signal of value and values

I’ve bought books from that signal alone

Farcaster

Warpcast is an FC client and a wallet

Coinbase Wallet is (soon gonna be) an FC client and a wallet

Are they the same wallet?? 

Portable social network + portable smart contract wallet would be such an unlock

I’m a Gwern. He liked one of my tweets once, I’ll never forget it 🥺

Been experimenting with prediction markets over the past few weeks after being nerd sniped by @davewhite 

Distribution markets let you bet on ANY value and win within a range of your choice

Try it out:

Cool new take on social prediction markets. Love the dead-simple UX for a somewhat complex underlying idea.

Enough with laptops, who’s building lapbottoms?

Warplet this, warplet that

Warp didn’t need to let you do anything, we’re fucking permissionless

reflection moment: what did you spend attention on this week that you regret?

best part of being in crypto is the workout your bullshit detector gets

Founders

Everybody wanna go zero to one but don’t nobody wanna get to no empty-ass zero first

Feel this fatigue as well

Have to actively remind myself:
- consuming disembodied thought from too many people you don’t know is unhealthy
- you don’t have to pay attention to each controversy — this is how they keep you addicted
- attention is a finite quantity, spend it well

On that note, going to touch grass this wkd ✌️

The market allocates your attention to the most directly “productive” use and does not care how you feel about it

Cabin 🏡

deep /cabin lore: some pirates put a private key into a treasure chest and buried it somewhere outside Austin, TX

the chest has never been found. there's at least 5 Eth inside

cant stop thinking about how this treasure has never been found.

shoutout to @grin who is sort of our project's wise, father figure 

contrary to my clankermon pfp, I'm actually NOT old and wise, I'm young and foolish

great to have the encouragement and support of someone we trust. clankadvisor

one reason i vibe with proxy is that his path is similar to mine. 

no big-name degree, no big tech experience, no SF connections, just finding success through trust, conviction, and hustle. 

thats the rebel alliance way and i always support the rebels
