I genuinely hope @HunterBiden is smart enough to stay far away from crypto shill offers, memecoins, paid promo traps and every desperate Web3 parasite already trying to convert his sudden attention into liquidity for their garbage.
You like their posts, comment under their fake wisdom, repost their garbage, join their Telegram sewer, buy the coins they shill, defend them when people warn you, and then sit there crying when the same professional scammers empty your…

Over the last week, the entire zcash:native narrative was hit by one issue: a critical bug in Orchard, Zcash’s shielded privacy pool.
For years, crypto told itself it was building an alternative to the corrupt financial system, an escape from captured institutions, banking cartels, lobbyists, political dynasties, insider networks, frozen access, rigged markets, and…
Maybe this market became too bloated, too complacent, too convinced that institutions, ETFs, treasury companies and endless leverage had somehow abolished downside risk.
I did not only warn early about the Trump, CZ and Binance deals, market makers, CEXs and the network of connections around them, back when it was not fashionable to say it and when most of this space still refused to understand what was…

I am seeing more and more tier 1 scammers trying to warn people about scams or expose other scammers.
If someone asked me what the consequences of poor education and centralization look like, I would tell them to spend some time studying CT.
Holding 200k (More likely the money skimmed from followers) on a CEX is proof enough for me that many of these big accounts out there do not take sovereignty and self custody seriously.
Nick, shit, you make me feel like the asshole here because I am the one bringing a negative tone into a story where nobody really wants to be the guy asking uncomfortable questions.
A society that gives a handful of private tech empires control over speech, data, infrastructure and intelligence does not remain free simply because those empires use the word freedom in their marketing.
"Waiting on a Sunday afternoon For what I've read between the lines Your lies Feelin', like a hand in rusted shame So do you laugh or does it cry”

What I find strange is how often faith is used almost like a public badge in spaces that are supposed to be about technology, finance, decentralisation, markets, scams, risk and code.
Ben Armstrong, better known as BitBoy Crypto, was once one of the biggest crypto influencers on YouTube.
Over the last few hours, 2 things have been circulating at the same time, and both honestly made me think and sad.
In simple terms, compute units are the amount of work Solana allows inside a block. More compute units means the chain can process more activity per block.
