By the way, I also think we're (almost) through the bear phase. Maybe a bit more bumps in december but … I like where Trump is going with the announcement of the new Fed chairman. This aligns with my ideas over the last few weeks and months. The mega catalyst is Trump appointing a puppet Fed chairman and pushing it to the limit. Regardless of whether that happens, the market will anticipate news and updates on that matter. We recently saw that, and I think it's also the reason for the mini rally to $92k. Yesterday, I saw a video where Trump hinted at the new Fed chairman for the first time. I don't personally know the guy, but afterwards, I saw headlines about "worried bond investors." Worried bond investors mean lower interest rates and possibly more economic stimulus. That's exactly what we want to see. It's not great for the economy or the world overall, but it's great for risk assets.

Shared some thoughts about SOLO if you are interested: https://x.com/cryptostreamhub/status/1996484007437971676?s=46&t=FcAqf5jAZB9UOKPTe-O_Aw

SOLO is doing pretty well :)

How is it going?

Good morning, friends! I hope you are well. I haven't been very active in the chat recently as I've been working on a side project (some coding stuff, nothing fancy). I'm still following the market, though, and I'll let you know if anything interesting happens. For now, though, I think it's just a slow grind downwards or sideways until the FOMC meeting.

Got 1m TVL while being 100% stealth - people found it via defillama. 20% yield fully sustainable bc it’s generated with a basis trade (short future, buy spot -> collect funding) Yield will increase further because they will use part of the raise money to farm yield and use yield to give to other farmers -> higher/highest APY -> hyper grow tvl. Retail might be interested in basis trade yield might not be but it’s a game changer for the MetaDAO ecosystem. All these projects have millions of locked treasury just lying around -> imagine getting 20% yield on top of that. That could cover a lot of costs. As mentioned it was running stealth for over a year this includes the 10/10 crash where the protocol wasn’t affected in any way and was robust enough to withstand the stresstest.

has solomon done anything to justify the hype? launching on metadao is not a signal for the project being good. 20% yield on stables is questionable, and only $1.4m tvl atm. what am i missing?

Head of engineering at OpenAI is Soloman Founders brother btw

Bought some.

Solomon ICO looks good

I'm tired boss.

I love the story of the Variational founders: > Met in college > Founded their own hedge fund > Acquired by DCG > Become VP Engineering & Trading > One of the largest desks in crypto > Hundreds of billions in volume > Left to start their own trading firm > Variational is founded > Profitably run strategies for a few years > Not happy with the infrastructure > Develop the Variational Protocol > Solve pain points they experienced Random highlights about the founders: - Harvard Innovation Challenge Winner - Studied Mathematics; top <1% of class - $10m seed raise (Coinbase Dragonfly)

TLDR: Sorry for the shameless shill but I’m very bullish on the airdrop, and the platform is actually incredibly good.

I've been using Variational as one of my main perpetual exchanges for a while now. At first, I only wanted to farm the airdrop. But the more I used it, the more I realised how good it actually is: • Low / No Fee model • Every pair you need • Loss-refund mechanics The team is seriously building, and the airdrop still feels massively underfarmed. I genuinely think Variational has the potential to become a top-3 perp exchange — right behind Hyperliquid and Lighter. And yes, this post also includes a shill for my referral code, which boosts your airdrop farming ability and also mine: Referral Code: OMNISTREAM Site: https://omni.variational.io/ Using it gets you: - A higher starting tier - A higher chance of receiving loss refunds - Higher rewards for your own referrals But regardless of the code shill -I honestly believe Variational is one of the best exchanges I’ve used so far.

Reminder about this chart. Will it continue to hold true?

I’ve been working from home for myself for almost two years now, and I think something’s missing. Don’t get me wrong—I’m not lonely. I have an amazing relationship, a great family, and awesome friends. But professionally, I feel like I’m missing out. It almost feels like I’ve already retired at 27, and that’s way too early. I want to grow, learn new skills, and meet new people, but that’s hard to do when you’re working from home and get little professional input. I know it might sound crazy if you’re still working a traditional job and dreaming of quitting. But maybe someone can relate. What do you think?

Market conditions are better than yesterday, but prices are lower. Interesting spot? Either I'm wrong or early.
