JUST IN: 🇺🇸 SEC commissioner Hester Peirce confirms NFTs with creator royalties are NOT securities
In Dec 2023, I made the decision to trade my pudgy penguin for the bitcoin punk ape pfp I now have.
2 months later Pudgies pumped to 20E while btc punks faded and I thought, “You had 1 job - just to hold.”
Feeling a lot more comfy cozy nowadays.

If history repeats, the real Altseason everybody is waiting for would begin once Bitcoin Dominance rejects from 71% (red)
And right now, 71% is only ~6% away

How to change your entire life in one weekend:
Lock yourself in a room for 2 days with ChatGPT.
You’ll come out with a blueprint that could make you unrecognisable in a year.
Here's exactly how (10 steps):
1. Block out all distractions for 2 days. Cancel all plans.
2. Spend the entire weekend promoting. Feed an LLM your whole life, including:
• Business plans
• Financial situation
• Issues
• Strengths/weaknesses
• Goals
Keep asking it to ask you questions. Answer so many questions you're sick of answering questions.
Keep prompting after each batch: "Ask me 10 more follow up questions based on my answers. We're trying to paint a full picture of my life. Don't answer anything yet."
3. Once the quality of the questions significantly deteriorates/you start getting rephrased repetitive questions, it's a sign you've sent enough info (I'm not kidding, this takes more than a day in many cases - use voice memos to make it easier and more natural).
4. Let's say you used ChatGPT's o3 for this, now ask it to compile the ENTIRE chat history into a PDF.
5. Take that PDF, and send it to Gemini & Perplexity.
6. Get both of these LLMs to ask questions that o3 missed. Spend another few hours doing that using previously mentioned prompt.
7. Then, get them to create 2 additional PDFs with respective summaries, and combine all 3 to create a master PDF.
8. Now, prompt all 3 LLMs with that master PDF.
"This file contains an entire summary of my life. You now know more about me than any human ever has. Based on this file, give me brutally honest, life-altering feedback. Tell me my biggest strengths, my deepest weaknesses, hidden blind spots, and the beliefs holding me back. Then give me a strategic plan to optimize my career, relationships, health, and mindset over the next 12 months. No fluff. Be direct. Be detailed. Change my life.”
9. Based on the one which gives the best response (in my experience Gemini, but o3 is also pretty good), ask a serious of follow up questions to nail the specifics of each facet of your life. Whether it be a business plan, relationship plan, or another aspect important to you.
10. Then, get it to create a document with an exact step-by-step plan to improve your life. A comprehensive blueprint to change your life.
I just did this with my business, and wow. I think over the next few weeks you'll see some big changes to my brand/content, and hopefully the results speak for themselves.
Try it for yourself, and let me know what you think. It won't be easy, it's annoying (for those 2 days), but it could be the most life-changing weekend of your life.
I like open systems. The idea of “build on top” is alluring.
But decentralization has a hidden cost: the belief that the community will just magically figure it out.
App layer utility must be thought of first. Infra second.
If you flip that order, ecosystems stall — no matter how “decentralized” they are.

Twenty One, a new public company, was announced this morning.
It will hold more than 42,000 bitcoin (around $4 billion) on its balance sheet and work to acquire as much bitcoin as possible in the coming years.
The company is backed by Tether, Softbank, and Cantor Fitzgerald. The CEO will be @jackmallers.
Things are going to get crazy as more public entities start to enter the bitcoin world.

This is Peter Thiel.
Co-founder of PayPal and one of the most controversial minds in Silicon Valley.
He just sat down with Joe Lonsdale and revealed mind-blowing facts about the government & AI that 99% of people wouldn't know…
Here are 8 key takeaways:
(No. 6 is fascinating)
My thoughts on "Base is for everyone" as a founder who is building on Base:
There seems to be 3 conversations at play:
1. Base is for who?
2. Base is for what?
3. The Approach
1. Obviously as a chain, the strategy is to be inclusive of diverse roles.
2. But the real Q is what should be onchain. Historically attention has favored where the puck is, as opposed to where it is headed.
If you zoom out, there are many underserved areas of value waiting to be tokenized. Areas waiting to be revealed as the velocity of transformative technology continues, costs are lowered and demand fluctuates.
In the short term, I see tokenized deficits in attention, talent, and intelligence markets. Lots can be done here given the rise of AI. One could create an ecosystem around this, so I've heard.
However, over the long term as blockchain continues to collapse pragmatic boundaries, there will be many more opportunities.
And perhaps this time horizon is what Jesse and the team over at base are targeting. Same board, different innings.
3. But yeah, 2 tokens on the same day, maybe not the best approach given base's current reputation. But hey, maybe this disruption was the point? Not sure.
The last 2 bull cycles, I was an investor. This will be my first as also a founder.
I’m sure in a book somewhere I’m classified as a serial entrepreneur.
But I’m not in love with the term because I tend to picture a person who darts from project to project.
I’m more of a what you’d call - a stacker.
I see the magic in beautiful synergies such as:
Teams
Art
Portfolios
Ecosystems
& Tacos

Art has the ability to reach deeper, unseen depths. Like molecules between the tissues. Make sense. Imagine if we could unite all worlds: nfts + trading + airdrops + speculation. I’m old enough to remember 2021, but not old enough to give up on it.
We’re building a new AI ecosystem that’s:
1. 🥇 First to market
2. 🦄 Difficult replicate
3. ✅ Solves a major pain point
4. 💰 Creates new revenue for traders
Excited to share with the world and work with ambitious partners. 🐳
