1/ Huge respect for Dragonfly continuing to invest in the bear market.
But I'm morally obliged to call out sketchy projects gaining momentum.
As a community we must preempt large scale implosions like #FTX or #LUNA that set the industry back years
Bitget may be the next FTX 🧵
I'm thrilled to announce @dragonflyvc's investment in @BitgetGlobal.
Bitget is making crypto more accessible with its innovative derivatives products and a user-centric approach, and we're proud to support their mission and growth.

Ethereum is the best chain for the most credibly neutral and truthful oracle system and prediction markets.
Glad to see that Ethereum L1 will have a new strong prediction market contender that is dedicated to decentralization, and being ethical and not corposlop, and to actually trying to do interesting and meaningful things with this class of economic primitive.

The “You can just do things” people are always the same breed that move to Japan and ruin everything.

I think a key barrier to this is that most people don’t have the vocab to properly describe the property they’re seeking.

Didn’t work because the teachers always ended up rigging the election to play something nobody voted for but that they wanted.

Is that base salary or does this include the income from my meth empire as well?

This is hard to explain to people born out of cram schools.
Forcing yourself to grind something you hate will make you B-tier at something you’re not drawn to. They’re only chasing status which peaks very early as a motivator until it’s just emotional baggage.

Lol, that shit ain’t enforceable. Even then, your landlord can’t afford to collect.
I’d be more worried about what this indicates about their future behavior if they’re already this sneaky.

My college roommate used to play FIFA with only Mexican announcers. He was Polish and didn’t understand a word. But understood their soul.

I challenge anyone to draw the Mexican flag by hand and see if they can do better than the Qing Dynasty.

This is more of a Batman vs Kevin from Home Alone type of match up.
Depends entirely on prep time.

As an intern, I once discovered the company’s mobile app was absolutely broken on older androids (huge market share) for a month. Nobody had noticed because everyone only owned new iPhones.
2 staff engineers personally visited me at my desk. Never felt more important.

He’s trying to sell dupes from patents that expired because the holding business failed.
China will dupe a currently successful product. They don’t give a shit about the cease and desist. They’ll just open up a new store the next day.
There’s no alpha here.
