gm,
Club happenings:
We talked about the viral Boy Room show, scouting for TikTok talent and ~the ban~ with Adam Faze on Too Online.
The CryptoPunks, Sotheby’s Metaverse and Boys Club podcast love triangle. It’s like Challengers but for crypto orgs.
THE NET GALA is today, in support of The Lower Eastside Girl’s Club. If you don’t know, now you do. Kid Super’s “Dream Machine” powered by LUKSO will be there. Our co-chairs will be there. Odalys and Heno will be there. Will you, anon?
Love,
The Boys

Four Months. Binance founder CZ was sentenced to a “light” four months in prison this week for violations of anti-money laundering laws while he was running the world’s largest crypto exchange. Four months? Now That’s What I Call Leverage!

What intel did CZ offer to the government in exchange for such a gentle sentence? Something with “geopolitical significance”, perhaps? Or maybe it was just the 161 letters of support. Who’s to say! Regardless, I’m impressed at the PR jiu jitsu being played with CZ’s reputation overall — men are even sending him heart emojis on X. That said, if we’re in the mood to choose heroes, my vote goes to bearded blue eye baby boi Jack Dorsey, who is getting the good kind of spicy on main. His company Cash App is being investigated by the DOJ for a similar charge, and this is your quarterly reminder to update your brain software on how to think about regulation by enforcement. Speaking of, Eigenlayer’s US-compliant airdrop angered a lot of people. Couldn’t be me! (Not eligible lol)
Quick Hits. Someone sold a car for 300K $BONSAI on Lens. People are betting on arcade games at Dave and Busters. I say let 👏 the 👏 people 👏 bet 👏. In AI beef, YouTube influencer MKBHD aka Marques Brownlee called the Rabbit R1 handheld device “barely reviewable”, which is the tech equivalent of dropping a diss track. To this, the founder and CEO of Rabbit said, ‘let us cook.’ To that *I* say, why didn’t you answer my email about coming on the Boys Club podcast? The ‘Am I The Asshole’ subreddit is getting the academic treatment. Since we’re on the subject, this is one of my favorite all-time AITA posts. In burn-it-all-down news, a second Boeing whistleblower was found dead, which is not our usual beat for this newsletter but feels worth sharing.
