Fast, lift, sprint, stretch, and meditate.
Build, sell, write, create, invest, and own.
Read, reflect, love, seek truth, and ignore society.
Make these habits. Say no to everything else.
Avoid debt, jail, addiction, disgrace, shortcuts, and media.
Relax. Victory is assured.

$ETH
Almost 50% of all USD in existence have been printed since COVID.
Your paycheck? Worth 50% less.
Your bank account balance? Worth 50% less.
It won’t be reflected in the price of consumer goods for a bit, but it eventually will.
Escape the system.
$ETH
Stop building the same shit over and over.
Build some crazy shit. Some new shit. Some shit that might not work and everyone might hate, but some shit that just might change everything.
At the beginning of the bull run I was super excited and gave out a bunch of $ETH
I feel like a fun conclusion to the saga would be to do the same at the top..
If I somehow have 10k followers when $ETH hits $10k, I’ll randomly distribute 10 ETH to people who follow & RT this ;)
It's March 15th, 2021.
$ETH is back over $2000.
Gas prices are consistently below 100 gwei thanks to
@VitalikButerin
's new proposal.
Over 3M ETH is locked in the beacon chain.
L2's are gaining traction.
EIP 1559 is in sight.
Life is good.
Is
@arbitrum
supposed to be this fast? This is insane…
Highly recommend bridging over and trying it if you haven’t yet….
L2 is here. And better than any
#ethereum
killer I’ve seen yet.
old boomer bitcoiners out here STILL arguing about pow vs pos while 20000 nerds understood the answer to that question years ago and are busy w their heads down building the future in denver
the flippening is inevitable
$eth
These moments - savor them.
The depression phase.
The depths of winter. The sinking feeling that maybe you were wrong. Forgotten, mistaken, all-for-naught...
"You're still doing that crypto thing?" they'll say.
This is where legends are born.
This is what makes the highs
BREAKING: $ETH to be accepted as the native currency of the metaverse and to be used as the economic bandwidth which secures the trust infrastructure of the planet.
Last year, I truly thought 10k $ETH was a meme. I figured it might get there eventually, but not for a long time.
Now $10k seems low.
Moving the goalposts to $50k-$100k. We’ve never before seen an asset like this.
It's officially been a year since I've had a full-time job.
First time in my life I wasn't subscribed to anyone else's agenda.
Wanted to see where my heart and the universe would take me if I made some space.
Aaaaaand I'm still here doing crypto stuff 16 hours a day.
$ETH
Remember the depths of crypto winter when we were all down like 95%, kept our heads down, held, and kept building?
I ‘member.
Cherish these moments.
$ETH
Tomorrow I will be waking up at 5:30 am to drive 3 hours so that I can SIGN A PIECE OF PAPER in front of a LIVE HUMAN so they can attest to the fact that my authentic self signed the document.
Widespread Web3 adoption cannot come fast enough.
$ETH
BREAKING NEWS - SOURCES CONFIRM $ETH IS A TRIPLE POINT ASSET & ULTRA SOUND MONEY, EIP-1559 & THE MERGE ARE IMMINENT, L2S ARE GAINING UNBELIEVABLE TRACTION, INSTITUTIONS ARE PILING IN, AND A GENERATIONAL TRANSFER OF WEALTH IS ABOUT TO TAKE PLACE.
The hate for Metamask & Infura infuriates me. The ecosystem has gotten to where it is largely because of these two products.
While 99% of the ecosystem is out here launching tokens to get rich quick, they work thanklessly behind the scenes to help build the decentralized future.
We have literally no desire to store more data than we need to. We just happen to have the most assertively transparent privacy policy in web3, and we're more self critical about how our current web infrastructure works than others are admitting.
Wanna know why $ETH is still so undervalued?
Talk to anyone outside of our little echo chamber.
99.9% of the world still barely understands
#Bitcoin
, let alone
#Ethereum
.
We are still so, so, so early.
SEC crackdown. Binance US funds frozen. Alt coins nuke double digit %’s in hours. Not much hope on the horizon.
1 validator in the exit queue.
96108 validators in the deposit queue.
Do you see it yet, anon?
$ETH
Ultra sound money is not priced in, just like $BTC halvings are never priced in before the event.
A ‘halving’ event is coming to $ETH that is magnitudes greater than any $BTC halving. We’ve never seen anything like this.
You have 2 months to prepare.
This is your warning.
Please retweet and signal your support for EIP 1559 if you’re in favor of it.
I haven’t personally met a single person who isn’t excited for / overwhelmingly supportive of it, and I’m worried a very loud minority (miners) are going to slow things down / try to block it.
As much as I want to see 1559 live on mainnet, I won’t push for it if other client teams don’t think it’s a good idea. I will make a case for why it matters, the benefits, potential risks, etc. but at the end of the day, consensus among clients >>> any single EIP.
After nearly a decade of using
@coinbase
with no issue, my account was just randomly 'blocked'.
Not your keys, not your coins. Not even if it's Coinbase.
Attempting to estimate the future value of $ETH right now is like attempting to value oil before there were cars.
All price estimates currently being made are relatively conservative.
Wait, people are mad about this?
You were literally buying things you knew were absolutely valueless ponzis in an attempt to dump on people who were doing the same.
This was a transfer of wealth from degenerate gamblers to actual builders.
Sorry you didn't get your lambo.
Stop propagating the addiction.
Stop launching things that require people to monitor Discord / Twitter 24/7.
This is not healthy.
Addicting people to continually toggling between different platforms/chats all day every day =/= "fair".
It creates a vicious, unhealthy loop.
This tech is so god damn disruptive that people are willing to pay $100k+ for a jpg of a rock, and you still aren’t convinced it’s something worth learning about?

@eigenlayer
: actually tries to innovate while remaining compliant, offers people an additional ~100% APY on their staked $ETH

🧵
You finally decide to take the plunge. You buy your first crypto. Your friend told you to buy $ETH, and now you’re in it to win it.
But you’re smart! You’re smarter than him, of course - that friend has always been kind of weird.
🧵
I don’t think many people understand what’s about to happen.
At our current pace, in probably 1-3 years, the experience of
#defi
is going to be better than
#tradfi
in every imaginable way.
What do you think happens next?
$ETH
One of the best things about
#ethereum
is its token distribution - everyone in the world has had years to accumulate at reasonable prices, and so the $ETH supply is distributed amongst an incredible group of futurists and technologists - not just venture capitalists.
If 100% of $ETH were to be staked, there could only ever be ~3,125,000 validators.
Let's conservatively assume 30% of $ETH will be staked post-merge.
Less than 1M validators will ever exist.
There are 7.5B+ people in the world.
Secure a validator & become one of the top .01%.
Slowly, then all at once.
In the next 1-2 years, you are going to see crypto realize its potential.
The builders are building.
The devs are devving.
The foundation has been laid, and now it’s time to change the world.

EIP-1559 accepted.
Uni V3 en route.
Optimism & other L2s coming online.
Insane innovation happening across the board.
Institutional investors on the verge of piling in.
Does it get any better?
$ETH
Right now, a spike in gas price just means you’re missing out on some big thing happening on-chain.
With EIP-1559, it means every single person holding $ETH is making money.
Do you understand the current pace of innovation happening in our space?
If you really step back and take a look, it’s absolutely mind blowing...
This shit is so exciting.
Who in their right mind would bet against it?
$ETH
We are programmed to think linearly.
Our brains can't comprehend exponential growth.
The composability of
#Ethereum
allows financial technology to evolve exponentially.
We can't possibly comprehend what the future will look like in 5-10 years.
But it's looking bright.

If you are considering suicide - I don’t care WHO YOU ARE - if you’re reading this and considering it, PLEASE JUST TALK TO ME. PLEASE. WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE?!?
I AM HERE FOR YOU. THERE IS SO MUCH TO LIVE FOR. Please just reach out - to me, or to someone. Please. I love you.
Alright, running validators post-merge with MEV boost is addicting…
Every validator is like a little continuous lotto ticket now…
This is way more fun than I expected…
Addicted to securing the network.
$ETH
During the next bull run, can we please stick true to our values?
Can this please be the bull run where the only way to be *cool* is to actually be "in it for the tech"?
This technology is revolutionary, and it is being plagued by people who keep score in terms of money.
