When someone threatens the base layer, the response is never polite. In DeFi: bribes, forks, vampire attacks. In geopolitics: sanctions, coups, invasions. Force is just governance without a UI.

This is why @ConvexFinance matters. Convex doesn’t produce yield. It controls where yield goes. Oil doesn’t create power. Pricing oil in USD does.

Sell oil outside the dollar → regime change. Drain liquidity from the core → hostile takeover

Venezuela wasn’t “attacking the system.” They were routing liquidity away from the dominant pool! And dominant pools don’t tolerate outflows.

Venezuela broke the rules by FORKING THE PROTOCOL They sold oil in yuan, built payment rails outside SWIFT, flirted with BRICS. 4/n

In TradFi, that base layer is oil priced in dollars. In DeFi, it’s liquidity that controls emissions. Fees different but is the same game. 1974: the petrodollar deal. Oil must be sold in USD → global demand for dollars → US prints, world works. 3/n

US on Venezuela isn’t about drugs, terrorism, or “democracy.” It’s the same reason whales fight over $cvx. Which is to control the base layer and flow. 2/n

curve captures 44% of all ethereum dex fees. not stablecoin dex fees. all dex fees. protocol revenue hit 2022 levels when crv traded $3-6 but the token sits at $0.40. votemarket distributes $808k weekly across 79 campaigns fighting for curve liquidity. egorov's leverage unwind

For those thinking the “delusional” bull run is over. Look at the comments. Far from it. And while you may think it’s funny. Its validation that the animal spirits is very much alive. It just gets born and appears in different dimension and manner.
The beauty of $ZEC is that the higher the price goes, the better the product becomes. Is it worth 7B or 70B? Why not 700B FDV? $ZEC has no revenue metrics like DeFi tokens or perp DEXs like $HYPE, or L1s like $SOL, or $ETH. It trades like a memecoin but it isn't one because of

NFTWorlds & Topia already taught us, the less we and @hytopia screams ‘crypto’, the better. Stop talking $HYBUX every 5 mins. Just let gamers game.

I was invested @hytopia when it was called NFTWorlds, was a free mint LOL. Then we got rugged by Microsoft, @iamarkdev pivoted many times to try new iterations. Impt to note that these gaming participatory rates are really that big a deal. Excited for what comes ahead!
Is @hytopia approaching liftoff 🤔 This is with no incentives, no P2E, no notifications and no re-engagements yet.. Nothing but just VERY early games.. Everything has so much improvement and growth ahead too it's wild. Very excited for the future.

Half of these coins have the governance layer held by $cvx, benefiting $cvx holders when gauge votes are bribed, controlling emissions to drive liquidity. Yield are accrued to $cvx holders thru these activities. Acting like an index for governing the money pipes of defi. IYKYK

Read this and get your good nights rest.
I can see all of Fintwit back to hurling insults at each other again, so I figured I’d share my view and try to be a voice of reason, even if I end up being wrong. It’s my job to stick my neck out. I’ve been doing it for years, and I’m still here. For what it’s worth, I think

Gold is 30T. Btc is 2T. Eth is 0.5T. And you are dumping the premier frontier asset for physical gold? ???
