Kids These Days. The child below launched a memecoin called $QUANT on a livestream last night. What happened next would kill a pilgrim. This young master of the attention economy saw the price start rising, and proceeded to sell his whole position — while still livestreaming — profiting nearly $30K.

However, hell hath no fury like a memecoin trader scorned. In the six hours that followed, the token’s price pumped 900% as traders revenge-bought $QUANT en masse. They also doxxed him and his family. A teachable moment? Idk. Apparently he’s ‘rugged’ two more times since then. At this rate he’ll be appointed chair of the SEC by the end of the week.

Laser Eyes. Bitcoin has hit another all-time high today as spot ETF options went live on Nasdaq. Not a lot of euphoria on the timeline tbh, which I fear is a reflection of our dopamine drained times. Meanwhile, ETH.

Quick Hits.

• Man does a bit on the Jaguar rebrand. Then, bit goes too far.

• Kim Kardashian commits to a different kind of bit.

• Who among us has the bone structure to compete in the Vitalik lookalike contest?
