@KyleSamani is less interested in EMH theory but suggests the halvening is “objectively bullish” due to 1) issuance cut in half; 2) increasing ease of big capital to enter; 3) lack of price sensitivity of big capitalhttps://twitter.com/KyleSamani/status/1213548776700416000 …Show this thread -
15/ Jumping back to Iran and bitcoin in the macro context, one question some have had is “how useful is bitcoin as

@bquittem is back with a very cool project cataloguing all of the prominent folks from across industries and domains who are quietly (or not so quietly) bit coinershttps://twitter.com/bquittem/status/1213883601286238208 …Show this thread -
18/ Third, this thread last night from
@BrookeRStoddard snuck in just as I was prepping LRS. Titled “Why I Invest In Bitcoin,” this is a great primer that one could use when chatting with their interested (or skeptical) friends and famhttps://twitter.com/brookerstoddard/status/1216174098897952771 …Show this thread -
19/ Let’s shift over to the Ethereum world for just a minute, where there were a couple of really interesting conversations. First, check out the responses to
@CamiRusso’s questions about a DeFi passive income experimenthttps://twitter.com/CamiRusso/status/1214208967368417280 …Show this thread -

21/ I loved this discussion kicked off by
@sassal0x about “actual ETH bear theses.” It reminds me of a similar thread from@lrettig last year. I think this sort of community self-analysis is really valuable.https://twitter.com/sassal0x/status/1213981886873161728 …Show this thread -
22/ Finally, a fascinating discussion kicked up by

24/ After having to fight like hell,
@SDinwiddie_25 has pushed through the tokenization of his NBA contract.@arjunblj argues that it is the continuation of a larger trend of people affiliating with players over teams.https://twitter.com/arjunblj/status/1215790975282368512 …Show this thread -
25/ Between
@SDinwiddie_25 and@RussellOkung, it’s increasingly looking like many folks in the mainstream are going to have their first exposure to bitcoin and crypto via a sports hero, rather than some ICO or other. This is a very good thing.Show this thread -

Loading seems to be taking a while.
Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup. Try again or visit Twitter Status for more information.
Thinking of an experiment:
1) Putting a small and equal amount of $$ in different DeFi projects enabling passive income
2) Record the process
3) Track and publish returns on a periodic (ej weekly) basis
4) Higher returns by yearend wins :)
Which 5-10 projects would you do?
