In It For The Tech. Let me be clear. If Kanye West Inc. does indeed launch this awful coin, it will be designed for “max extract,” regardless of whether or not it’s actually him behind the wheel. If it does go ahead, it will be - in no uncertain terms - a major liquidity extraction event. Though unrelated, this speculation happening next to a Fyre Festival 2 announcement makes sense to me.

Speaking of, is the whole market max extracted?

God Spoke And Said We Need More Stablecoins. Fresh coins from Kraken, USDG on Solana, Figure, and more all in the past 24 hrs. Meanwhile Circle is getting pinged for regulatory capture, as a new legislation would shut off access to US treasuries for non-US entities. (Not on my watch!!!!) Meanwhile, Worldcoin is quietly dominating in not America. Also, SEC dropped its Uniswap investigation but it’s not enough to nudge the market in this economy.

Quick Hits.

• “The acceleration curve is fucking vertical now.” (But grain of salt always.)

• I can’t stop thinking about Berkshire Hathaway’s $26.8B tax bill.

• X’s favorite rage baiter and ‘most highly paid sex researcher’ Aella, hits the mainstream.

• “Sexy” Grok will “bring down birth rates.” NSFW ofc. Are this many people really trying to sext with the bots?

• The Gen-Z country club is actually just a gym with sauna and cold plunge and I totally get it.
