🥢 Our Favorite Resources

What we most enjoyed this week

1/ Infinite Regret - Zeneca

Did you ever…

Decide not to buy something which goes on to moon? (like $PEPE…?)

Decide to buy something which then goes to zero?

Decide to sell something at any price other than the absolute peak?

Decide to buy something at any price other than the absolute dip?

… then you probably need to read this article. It’s the most popular by NFT OG Zeneca - and it’s worth revisiting once in a while.

2/ State of Crypto 2023 - a16z

Sometimes when the market gets bad or boring, it makes sense to zoom out and re-focus on the bigger progress going on in crypto.

This report by a16z - the most prestigious venture capital firm on the planet - is a great place to start.

3/ Digital Nomads: The Next Superpower - Vitalik Buterin & Balaji Srinivasan

Vitalik Buterin is the ultimate (successful) digital nomad.

He famously jumps from country to country with just a 40L backpack (here’s what’s inside!) while building a $200 BILLION+ crypto ecosystem.

He talks with Balaji about all things crypto, network states and digital nomadism. Very much worth checking out.

4/ From Broke and Sleeping On the Floor to a $1 Billion Business

Tom Bilyeu is both a famous Youtuber and a massive Web3 advocate.

This interviews - which covers crypto, business, self-awareness, and a lot more - is one of the best I’ve seen in a while.

5/ Cryptocurrency trading addiction is real

Addiction to day trading - pathological trading - is real and widely documented in stock traders. Yes, there are rehab programs devoted to treating day-trading addiction.

But crypto is much worse. The markets are open 24/7 and the volatile swings are 5-10X of what they are in stocks. This is a great piece of crypto addiction - and a gentle reminder to look inward.

Oh, and here’s Snoop Dogg on AI 😂

🐦 A couple of Tweets we found interesting

The best of the bird

If Tether’s Q2 profits are close to their Q1 profits, that’s over $200 MILLION of buying pressure this quarter alone…

We also talked about getting rich off memecoins yesterday. Here’s a powerful manifesto on the topic written by the one and only Zeneca👇
