They’re still pumping content out, since they repeat what works, and they’re really good at it, and our war rationale makes little sense, but they’ll never hit the thematic quality of that one. https://t.co/62LubJmw1c We likely won't hit them in the meme department as hard as they hit us here. The attrack surface is there, like how their society has only degraded over five decades, and they were a former empire, but we sadly don't likely have the sophistication to make a good video on that.

@VladTheInflator Iran media already cut us in the jugular, Now they’re just playing worse versions of their best hits.

The memes on this are pretty on point. ‘Merica https://t.co/4W7I5GW2j9 And yet, no matter how poor the UK is compared to the US, I will always attribute greater sophistication to someone with a British accent. They get an immediate charisma boost, relative to my poor American linguistics. I can’t help it.

It’s a good argument not to put too much wealth into local real estate, and instead to think more global, more mobile.

The fact that we have a gay chad treasury secretary is pretty funny. Put in place by a Republican. Literally nobody cares about his personal stuff. Lives in a rich pink house. Fights people too often. Finance expert. We’re like, “bro, are you going to get interest rates down?”

Let Jon Stewart know if you want a nuanced bitcoin expert on his show. Like this post, and then comment on your favorite expert. Some commenters say I should go on. Yes, I would be decent. It would be a great conversation. Am I the best? That’s subjective, depends on the context, but probably not. My vote for the broad audience would be the far more charismatic (yet still highly informed): @natbrunell! @natbrunell Can’t go wrong with @gladstein for that audience either. Natalie or Alex!

Ansel is right. People with this view don’t truly understand the open source aspect or the proof of work aspect fully. A strong point about Bitcoin is that it literally doesn’t matter who created it. It can be assessed on its own merits since it’s transparent and decentralized.

RIP Mark Mobius. Legend.

Hopped on the PBD podcast this morning to talk markets, energy, and the economy. https://t.co/AVeUlkPnOS

@unfoldedbeagle @Macronaut_ @MarioNawfal Checking in on this. I’d like to understand more fully how I’m a Jewish scammer. It’s not just random antisemitism aimed at an almost 180-degree wrong target, right? Because that would be silly.

@MarioNawfal He's on tape bragging about grabbing women by the pussy. He's been found liable in court for sexual abuse. He publicly paid off a stripper. Epstein called him his closest friend and currently Trump protects the Epstein files. By no accounts is he a man of faith.

Analysts/podcasters/influencers and so forth that cater to their audience don't actually respect their audience. They respect the algorithm, the money. Feeding the ducks. Those who are willing to *challenge* their audience actually respect their audience. It's a discussion.

This gap was a core topic during my talk with @PeterMcCormack in London a couple weeks back: https://t.co/09XUaT0jqJ

Brutal.

That feeling when the only flight available that day is annoyingly at 6am, so you begrudgingly book it anyway, but then the airline emails you like, “we regret to inform you that your flight tomorrow has been delayed by two hours,” to a far more reasonable 8am. https://t.co/rYCXryOD8Q

Stretch $STRC is now larger than all of Strategy’s other preferred stocks combined. https://t.co/74vDhusuhX Whether one likes the overall levered Strategy model or not is a separate discussion, but objectively STRC is where the preferred demand is lately.

Jeff Booth posted this over on Nostr. What's going on lol. https://t.co/FfSWpLX8Ax Phew. https://t.co/OXFIaqJHJv

@Mayhem4Markets Paying people for generating social media views creates all sorts of sensationalist incentives. They can keep tweaking the algo, but that whole concept is built on sand imo.

They look great. Solid reminder to eat healthy and stay fit!

@prof_yigit_psy And yet, it has enough mindshare with you to bring it up in a thread that's not about bitcoin.

The Fed has been putting out research reports trying to assess how much goods inflation can be attributed to the tariffs. https://t.co/F4ND6acO1f https://t.co/a0LGrXd9pw Takeaway: "We estimate that the tariffs implemented through November of 2025 have raised core goods PCE prices by 3.1 percent through February 2026, explaining the entirety of excess inflation in the core goods category relative to pre-pandemic inflation rates and contributing to a 0.8 percent boost in core PCE prices as a whole."

Only 116 thousand Americans work in oil and gas extraction (out of a 170 million labor force level). Broadening that to all employees that are tangential to oil and gas production raises the total number by several hundreds of thousands more, but it's still well under 1% of US workers by most estimates.

Apparently nothing re-accelerates that train.

Hopping on to talk fiction now:

This pic is a prime example for how fiction, even speculative fiction, is sometimes less crazy than reality. Stay safe out there, to all my friends in the region! https://t.co/DGLBZ0gyuH

@filumvia Yields on the short end are flat-to-down for 3 years now. Total cost goes up because total debt goes up, ie nothing stops that train. https://t.co/N1dvppGwRh

Two topics that get 100x more airtime than they deserve on fintwit: 1) Trillions in Tbills constantly maturing and getting bought again by the same balance sheets that hold them now. 2) The Treasury issuing some on-the-run debt to buy back some of its own off-the-run debt. https://t.co/dsGcreDkLG
