Future thread… any insight or additional names appreciated

This charade can’t go on forever. We’re definitely getting near the end of this nonsense.

People are waking up.

People are fed up.

So hang - on not much further to go 💪

Hodl #bitcoin

Yes. It's ran by myself and #[4]. Recent UI changes by #[5] and #[6].

There's more to come.

What’s your short term buy target AJ?

I will very rarely ask this, but -

Price targets?

My barber emailed me the NYT best mullet competition. He thought we could win

What a story: A guy who worked at #Twitter had access blocked from his computer, and HR never responded to his numerous attempts to contact them to see if he was fired. He tweeted out and asked Musk directly, and a spat ensued where he was asked in public by Musk to basically justify his value to the company. Then was told he couldn’t be fired because he didn’t do any actual work. Then #Elon proceeded to tweet at others about this employees personal medical history. To which the guy responded he was wheelchair bound and has progressing muscular dystrophy, which wasn’t a problem because he was a manager. Then Elon proceeded to suggest he was lazy and using his disability to not work, which another CEO chimed in saying he was one of the hardest working programmers he had worked with. During this HR did finally call him and tell him he was fired.

But that’s not the kicker, turns out this guy wasn’t some low level rando manager, and wasn’t looking for his severance. This guy had sold his company to Twitter years back with the contractual condition of employment, and if he was ever let go the rest of his $100M payout was due. Not to mention this guy now has a hell of a reason to sue for being fired on top of that.

Elon then asked the guy to stay on…

Here is something I posted on an internal channel in June that we can discuss (I cant seem to post a screenshoot in Nostr, sorry):

Banks may be in more trouble than the rest of the markets think.

Most banks have been holding MBS on their balance sheets to generate yield. These securities probably yielding 2-3.5% (the more senior tranches) and have 7 year expected WALs. In rising rate environments, people don't re-fi nor move as much. This extends life of MBS. Also rates are at 6% + now. So these holdings have decreased in price- about 10%. If banks sell these holdings, they are at losses.

Many regional banks have also taken up venture lending, given the higher rates these lines of credit can command. I've seen 9-12% - imagine if you will a blockchain startup taking a loan and buying say, Avax or ETH heavily on their balance sheets because they are in that ecosystem. Not too crazy to imagine someone doing that. I just spoke to an entrepreneur in the NFT space that raised $1mm, and spent $700k on JPEGs just to get in the clubs. I imagine some of those venture loans might be in trouble.
