It's giving self-custody
Miami Invite, SBF DMs & Shipping News.
gm,
If you’re going to Miami for Art Basel, you must come hang.
Listen to the new pod with friends from a16z crypto, talking about their Crypto Startup School.
With love,
The Boys
SBF goes rogue. SBF bared all in a Vox reporter’s DMs this week, incriminating himself beyond repair and solidifying a jail sentence (we think… hehe). TLDR, baby boy is in denial. He regrets filing for Chapter 11. He wants to fuck regulators. He has no ethics. Effective altruism was all for PR. He thinks he can reverse the atomic bomb he deployed himself. He’s a liar. Read the full article here, and then go touch grass because you’re going to need it. JFC.
Timeline cleanse. Although pick-me boy SBF is getting all the attention, the builders are still building. The latest shipping news includes a new lending protocol named papr, a group coordination tool called Party Protocol, Uniswap fixing token approvals (I see you $3 million bug bounty), and Opensea landing some protocol improvements. What did you get done this week?
It’s giving self-custody. As the CeFi world implodes, crypto users are running into the arms of the ones they trust (i.e. themselves) to take control over their own bags. This week, Ledger saw all time high sales, signaling that people are finally understanding the importance of protecting thyself. Even Champagne Papi is choosing code. This has also been a huge week for DeFi; within the last week most DeFi protocols have experienced double-digit percentage growth in users and transactions. This is a massive sign of vitality, the good news we NEED.

Right, I’ve got two Taylor Swift tickets at MetLife that just came across my desk. Bid - Ask 3.275k - 3.4k. Fuck off, this isn’t a Katy Perry concert. This is MetLife, not fucking Citi Field. Okay, Done. Yours at 3.380k.
