Peak crypto living. No physical possessions but a trusty rug to sleep on (rugged 4 lyf), an @FTX_Official hoodie that doubles as a pillow, a laptop (w/ Rust compiler ofc) and mechanical keyboard (max WPM for CT shitposting). Everything else in NFTs or earning yield on #Solana.

Cool to see Hyperliquid also ship portfolio margin. This was our most requested feature for @bulletxyz_ and something we shipped earlier in the year that took months of careful design and risk modelling. A huge unlock for capital efficiency on basis trade strategies.

Bullet is finally in private mainnet beta. It feels vindicating to roll out to the first few hundred users that turned up to our event tonight after over a year of heads down building. Heard a lot of "holy shit market orders are so fast" which makes the engineer inside me happy

Bullet is the culmination of over 4 years of building derivatives exchange technology in DeFi as practitioners, not theorists. We've experimented with everything from options to perps, AMMs to CLOBs, and finally settled on what we think can be the new benchmark for on-chain

You thought indexing on Solana was a pain? Well now that @bulletxyz_ TPS is cranking, @Firaenix told me our Kafka cluster is ingesting 1M events / minute (order places, cancels, oracle updates etc etc). I might finally have to read the bible now
