Paraguay just froze a single bank and locked out 3 million people. that's roughly 60% of every adult in the entire country. salaries, pensions, life savings. gone overnight, and they can’t do anything about it. I know most of us in western countries don't have these problems (yet), but this is the entire reason crypto exists. just trust is a terrible foundation for the one thing you can't afford to lose. I'm so sick and tired of people writing crypto off as "just speculation" instead of finally waking up, after decades, to how unacceptable the traditional financial rails actually are. sadly it always takes a black swan that hits people personally before they finally get it.

haha, so apparently OpenAI are about to start training on your Daybreak Blue sessions, with no way to opt out. Literally stealing people's private work, as they do it, is cartoonishly evil. It also will presumably kill Daybreak usage by security researchers. Or at least, it should. The thing OAI have had to swear they are not doing to math researchers, they are now explicitly about to start doing to security researchers. Yet another reminder of the importance of open models.

ok my research says so far it's around ~$3.5B > the attacker rehearsed the attack about an hour beforehand > In block 26,300,753, 17 blocks before the drain, 0x7c86… sent an EIP-7702 transaction > About 2.1B in USDT and USDC hasn't been swapped yet. Tether and Circle could still freeze it. The attacker is racing to swap it into ETH

User funds are safe! It does look like a hack on Binance. Appreciate the quick freeze from Tether (~$971m) and Circle (~$823m). I don't manage Binance (.com) anymore, but as a shareholder, I expect all user funds will be fully covered.

Earlier this week, I posted about LARP tek and how sophisticated some of these farming operations have become on @RobinhoodApp Today, I fell for one myself. Worse still, I shared it with my friend. Earlier today, I highlighted @univ4market (V4M) as a genuinely promising project. The tech looked good, the narrative was strong, and everything appeared legitimate. (0xbd1a43744409a33d131cfc0c14103d6dcff11c12) After digging deeper, however, I've uncovered some serious red flags that suggest we're looking at a highly sophisticated serial launcher farming the trenches. Here's how I connected the dots. I came across a newly launched token called $POD (Proof of Data) and immediately noticed its artwork looked almost identical in style to V4M. CA: 0xa2a6d216e934b42f412dba6202a2ff69f535dbb7 That caught my attention, so I started digging. First, I checked the X account. Scrolling back to its earliest posts, I noticed a familiar pattern: an introductory article followed by a paid DEX promotion. Interesting. Then I compared the tokenomics. Transaction tax? Same. Bundled supply percentage? Same. Launch and promotional strategy? Almost identical. Dev buys of ~$30 acting as buy backs? Same. At this point, there were too many similarities to ignore. So I started looking at the earliest buyers, tracing wallets and examining previous transactions. That's when things got interesting. I identified what appears to be a recurring sniper wallet connected to multiple launches following the same playbook. You can investigate the wallet activity yourself here: robin.etherscan.io/tokentxns… The projects I've identified so far are: @censoredprivacy @darkhooksv4 @Infrabond @univ4market @usedataproof @usehimitsuAI Several other token X accounts associated with this pattern have since been deleted. I'm not claiming every connection is conclusively proven, but the similarities in artwork, launch structure, tokenomics, promotion and wallet activity are too obvious to ignore. And this is exactly why I'm posting this. I shared V4M earlier because I genuinely believed it was good tek. The concept itself is compelling, and that's what makes these operations so effective. They aren't just launching obvious garbage anymore. They're building convincing narratives, polished branding and seemingly legitimate products that even experienced traders can fall for. I personally lost over $500 today. I'm not going to pretend I called it correctly from the start. I didn't. But when I discover something like this, I'd rather share the evidence than quietly move on. Lets learn from this... Stop assuming good branding, convincing tech and a polished X presence mean a project is legitimate. Where we can, dig into the deployers. Trace the early wallets. Compare previous launches. Question unusually high transaction taxes. The LARP farming meta is becoming increasingly sophisticated, and the trenches need to get smarter. Stay safe out there. Please retweet/comment/like to get maximum exposure to help the degen trenchers out.

“First puppies expected in early 2027.” Are you freaking kidding me? @PalmerLuckey and @benlamm will be looking at lawsuits galore. In rescue I’ve dealt with Malinois and their machines already — it’s a nightmare rehoming them. When these dire wolves get out to the public — and they will — they will kill people. This cannot happen. Where is @IDAUSA @animal_front @AnimalLegalCtr @humaneworldorg ?

Introducing the fastest crosschain swaps on the market. Crosschain transactions on @fomo now land in <1s. A week ago, we rolled out our own internal bridge to a small % of users. Public rollout of fomo bridge begins now.
