100K pfp + FID + coin 1. Mint maximizes memetic propagation. Everyone has a customized one. Higher willingness to share. Likelihood to make pfp. 2. FID because you can use Neynar, Pro, social graph to limit bots and sniping. 3. Launch the coin simultaneously. If people want to be on the upside of the meme, by the coin. 4. Someone who doesn’t want to speculate can still participate in the mint. That still helps the coin from meme standpoint.

Abolishing the state’s monopoly on the provision of services There is certainly no need for a central government to decide who should provide various services, and possessing the power to do so is highly undesirable. In fact, although in some cases in the past only governmental bodies endowed with the coercive authority to collect taxes could provide certain services, there is no justification for holding the exclusive right to supply any particular service. It may be that the established provider of certain services is in such a superior position that it can supply them better than any potential private competitor, and thus we face a de facto monopoly; however, there is no social benefit in granting it a legal monopoly over any activity. Clearly, this means that any governmental agency authorized to use taxes to finance such services must be required to refund the taxes collected for that purpose to anyone who prefers to receive those services in some other way. This applies to all services currently in the hands of the state or for which the state seeks to legalize a monopoly of supply, with the exception of maintaining and enforcing the law (including defense against foreign enemies), which requires maintaining an armed force—that is, all governmental service activities from education to transport and communications, including the post, telegraph, telephone, and radio and television broadcasting services, all so‑called “public utilities,” the various forms of “social” insurance, and, most importantly, the issuance of money. It is certainly possible that some of these services are at present in practice supplied as monopolies in a fully efficient manner; but progress and the prevention of abuses require that others [potential competitors] have the opportunity to offer better services of this kind. As with most of the topics briefly touched upon in this concluding chapter, I cannot enter into a detailed discussion of the government’s current service activities; but with respect to some of these services, the question of whether the state should possess an exclusive right is decisive—not only from the standpoint of efficiency but also because of the vital importance this has for preserving a free society. In these cases, opposition to any exclusive governmental powers should take priority, even if such a monopoly promises higher‑quality services. For example, we may discover that a state monopoly over radio and television broadcasting could in practice threaten political freedom as much as the abolition of freedom of the press. The postal system is another example, where the state monopoly that governs it is merely the product of the government’s attempt to control private activities, and its result in most parts of the world has been the continuous deterioration of postal services ... In the course of the research for writing this book, due to the mutual interconnection of political and economic issues, I have come to the firm conviction that without depriving the state of the right to issue money, no system of a free economy can ever function satisfactorily again, and we will never be able to eliminate its most serious defects or prevent the constant growth of the state. It seemed necessary to me to examine this issue in a separate book, yet I fear that all the safeguards against encroachment and abuse of political power proposed in this book for restructuring the state will be of little help unless state control over the supply of money is simultaneously removed. Since I am convinced that it is no longer possible today to enforce strict rules that would ensure money issued by the state both responds to legitimate demands and at the same time preserves its value, it seems to me that the only way to achieve this goal is to replace current national monies with competing monies issued by private enterprises, with people being free to choose whichever money is best for their transactions. To my mind this matter is so important that, in the constitution of a free people, this principle should be entrenched by a special clause such as: “Parliament shall enact no law that restricts anyone’s right to hold, buy, sell or lend, to contract and enforce contracts, to keep and compute their accounts, in the money of their own choice.” Although this is implicit in the fundamental principle that the state may prohibit or mandate actions only on the basis of general, abstract rules that apply equally to everyone, including the state itself, the application of this particular part of that principle is still so unfamiliar that we cannot expect courts to recognize that the state’s traditional special privilege is no longer valid; for this reason, it must be explicitly stated in the constitution.

In my minds eye and opinion: Shallow perceptions = Shallow realities If reality is malleable, there’s no harm in exploring and trying to understand the functions / mechanisms. From a prediction standpoint, the universe seems to favor genuine intent of helping / being helpful without harm / survival as end outcomes. The thing I struggle with is consent the higher you go in consciousness. Like for my dogs, they can’t give consent for a bath and often vigorously refuse the bath / run away when they figure out what’s about to happen lol. So I violate their consent of not wanting to take a bath, because it’s for their greater good. I’m not their owner per se, they chose me and walked on my property out of nowhere. I’m more like their care taker, maybe that’s the original origin of consent /submission as long as I do not violate that original point of their submission? Anywho, if we (humans) keep acting and behaving like dogs, they will keep treating us like dogs… https://youtu.be/k7jsJrvleao?si=PDYOq7eGVgZEIa6T

There’s no need to be fearful when BTC is near $110K. It would only weaken if it breaks below $100K, so there’s no reason to worry from a technical analysis standpoint. The direction remains up

Here’s a super simple view of gold from a long term standpoint. What does the Market Generated Information tell ya? Price keeps accelerating. There’s no guarantee of a correction back to previous trends considering how evidence points to potential acceleration of the trend again. This last weekly candle is indecisive. Potentially an area of consolidation? If so we could easily drift sideways. The distance to the current trend line would make it a potentially long consolidation. Practically, it makes sense to watch for a break of the previous weeks high/low before making a decision about which direction is most likely. There’s no real structure longer term below, not until we are back around 3400-3600.

MegaETH’s sequencer rotation seems pretty similar to Fogo’s core value prop. Risk for Fogo Although @fogochain sessions are still cool af from a UX standpoint

making sushi is humbling. it seems so simple, but v complex from an execution standpoint. i only made like 10-12 times and learn so much each time i make again. -how you source and store seafood leading up to meal -how you prepare and slice seafood -what rice you pick, how long to soak, did i add to much water when cooking, did i wash it enough, did i wash it too much? even with rice cooker... -seasoning rice is key, dont mess it up - fresh wasabi- right tool needed to grind wasabi or better off buying green horseradish paste - execution of nigiri or roll - sashimi is easy -avocados need to be ripe but not to soft. -kewpie mayo is goated - sesame seed grinder -decent soy sauce overall atm i find i have no business being creative when making sushi/ japanese raw preparations and find success when i just follow trustworthy /recipes or someone that is preparing a dish as I know is correct.

From both a technical and fundamental standpoint, my projection remains clear: by the end of October, approximately 10 to 11 days from now, the altcoin market should transition into a reasonable recovery zone, with expectations of a 20% to 50% appreciation from current price levels. Historically, post-September retracements have often paved the way for strong recoveries as liquidity cycles rotate back into mid-cap and emerging assets. Fundamentally, renewed market confidence, coupled with capital inflows from Bitcoin stability, will likely serve as a catalyst for this upward momentum. In alignment with current data trends and on-chain movements, the following altcoins are good to look into: $HOLO $MANTA $AIXBT $SAGA $VANA Position strategically, stay patient, and allow the market structure to unfold. The next 2 weeks could mark the beginning of a pivotal recovery phase in the broader altcoin cycle.✍🏻✍🏻✍🏻✍🏻✍🏻

Monad, which counts as a L1 blockchain, has big ideas and has raised a lot of capital. I think its token launch will create a new hype in crypto and could bring a good amount of capital into the crypto market. That aside, it’s considered a solid blockchain technically, but I still believe the QUAI blockchain is stronger from a technical standpoint and is one of the best blockchains in crypto right now in terms of tech. However, the higher hype and bigger fundraising have tipped the scales in Monad’s favor.

I think a lot of those ridiculous designs just don’t make sense from a biological evolution standpoint. Simply enlarging a single body part would actually hinder mobility or throw off balance — how could that possibly be called an evolution?-Pokémon za

The Coin Pyramid Open questions - How does CLARITY Act passing change this? - Do content / creator coins look more like memecoins or project coins? - What current trends change this: RWAs / stock coins, perps, prediction markets? - Do NFTs come back as part of the Coin Pyramid or something different? - Does every category have a clear winner from a UI standpoint? Multiple winners? Super app does them all? - How many more coins can we expect to graduate to the top of the pyramid in the next 1 / 3 / 5 / 10 years?

🚨🇺🇸 TRUMP: IMAGINE A BILL THAT SAYS NO TAX ON TIPS, SOCIAL SECURITY, AND OVERTIME... NOW WE HAVE IT "Now we have better under the great big beautiful bill. Because we have no tax on tips and you have no tax on Social Security and for your workers, you have no tax on overtime. It's really a middle, I would say a middle of the road bill from the standpoint of who it represents, the workers. It's the biggest bill ever passed in the history of Congress, and I'm glad we did because we don't need any more bills." Source: White House

What incentives exist to encourage adopt protective tooling? The incentives for adopting protective tooling are overwhelmingly strong and multi-faceted. Financially, it is the primary defense against the catastrophic loss of staked capital. This self-preservation instinct is the most powerful driver. Secondly, insurance and risk pricing create a direct economic incentive; operators with verified protection will receive lower premiums and higher coverage limits. From a reputational standpoint, using best-practice tools is a signal of professionalism, attracting delegators and integration opportunities. Finally, there is a collective action incentive: widespread adoption of slashing protection reduces the overall systemic risk of the network, making it more resilient and valuable for everyone involved. The costs of adoption (minor setup complexity and resource overhead) are negligible compared to these massive benefits.

Using a cold wallet for airdrop participation is significantly safer from a security standpoint as it keeps private keys offline and immune to remote hacking attempts; however, it is operationally more cumbersome for high-frequency interactions, and from an eligibility perspective, projects do not discriminate between hot and cold wallet addresses.
