Sam Altman returns to OpenAI’s board after review finds firing was unwarranted via @FT
“There was simply a breakdown of trust between the board and Mr. Altman” = the art of saying nothing. Article sheds no insights on what happened! on.ft.com/49Kuiyw

Did you guys hear about SRBs? I'm into options a lot and never saw that, it's like instead of buying an option you're buying right to make money in exact interval if some terms are met? If you have any other sources about this would appreciate sharing
Gonna dive into it deeper and will share more info about that and Blast eco soon, source: blog.devol.network/introduci…
Partially inspired by Arrow Debreu state contingent securities!
Our Automated Market Maker (AMM) innovates with a groundbreaking new financial primitive that can be assembled to price, trade, and settle any customizable financial payoff, including options & futures.
It's a leap forward for crypto options trading, asset pricing, and risk management in #DeFi.
Currently deployed on #solana with a bridge into #polygon, this innovation is the reason DeVol excels at trading multiple legs in a single execution at low cost w/ zero bid-ask spreads. 🤌

This series is comparing nominal rents to real (that is, inflation adjusted) income. The difference in the series is largely because income is inflation adjusted but rent is not.

Decentralization is a spectrum. While true #DeFi may well be unregulatable because there is no one to hold accountable, hybrid approaches can combine the efficiency of DeFi protocols with regulatory safeguards

A decentralized DeFi protocol @DeVolNetwork w/ regulated centralized governance is one hybrid approach. This is Institutional DeFi, and is a winning paradigm when the finance industry tokenizes real world assets jpmorgan.com/onyx/documents/…
The case for tokenization of capital market instruments like US Treasuries, bank deposits, money market funds and repurchase agreements (repos) is higher in a 5% interest rate environment. coinbase.com/institutional/r…
Central banks are one step closer to using AMMs (constant-product) for FX transactions - may usher in large institutions adopting DeFi protocols coindesk.com/policy/2023/09/…
What is the volatility risk premium and how do you evaluate it for crypto options?

When is QE inflationary? Feeling enlightened: brilliant must-read explanation from @LynAldenContact Somewhat painful but necessary balance sheet analysis of 1) the Fed, 2) banks, 3) non banks, 4) treasury. Thank you Lyn!

5 - Treasury deficit spending financed though new Treasuries bought by the Fed increases both base money and broad money
6- Treasury deficit spending financed though new Treasuries bought by banks only increases broad money
Replying to @raphaelechappe @LynAldenContact
3. The Fed buying Treasuries from non-banks increases both base money and broad money
4. Treasury deficit spending financed though new Treasuries bought by non-banks does not increase base money or broad money (!)
Replying to @raphaelechappe @LynAldenContact
As a follow up, here is my summary:
The 1st question: is there an increase in broad money?
Base money = reserves
Broad money = bank deposits.
1. A bank loan only increases broad money (new bank deposits).
2. The Fed buying Treasuries from banks only increases base money
