THE TWO SIDES FIGHTING OVER BLOCKCHAIN'S FUTURE

The year is 1992 and Andrew Tanenbaum, a computer scientist, has declared that
Linux is dead.   If you’re not familiar with Linux, it’s an operating system
(OS) popular among more hardcore computer users.  The reason Tanenbaum
pronounced Linux dead is because of the kernel it uses. A kernel is lik...

BITCOIN’S LAST HOPE FOR 2023

Down three runs, bottom of the 9th, with bases loaded and a full count. As the
pitcher begins his windup, the batter’s eyes widen.  He’s studied the pitcher’s
release and knows exactly what’s coming next.  The fat pitch he’s been waiting
for, a juicy fastball straight down the middle that he can ...

HOW TO NAVIGATE A WORLD OF HIGHER RATES

In finance, it’s very easy to get caught up in the smaller details and miss the
forest for the trees when it comes to diagnosing the health of the economy.  But
I would argue the opposite is equally dangerous.  Last week, JPow and the
Federal Reserve decided to leave rates unchanged at a target ra...

JAPAN PREPARES TO TOSS THE CURVE

One of the most frustrating feelings is the feeling of being disenfranchised.  
The sense of futility of one’s effort, and the inability to take control to
change an outcome, can be infuriating and defeating.  Perhaps this is why so
many people are feeling anxious about the future of the world in ...

WHAT THESE PROJECTS CAN LEARN FROM ETHEREUM

Crypto’s taken some hard hits over the past year. But if you look beyond price
and dig deeper into fundamentals, one project’s looking better than ever. 
Twelve months after the Merge, Ethereum (ETH) is living up to its promise. 
According to ultrasound.money, since Ethereum officially switched to...

CHANGING OUR APPROACH

I’ve decided it’s time to write about crypto more.  An epiphany. Similar in
scope to making coffee at home instead of going to the local coffeehouse.  Not
only do I save nearly $5 each day (I drink two or three cups of coffee a day,
and this is nearly two decades ago – inflation, am I right?), but...

HOW ARBITRUM CAN TURN ITS TOKEN AROUND

Single Origin: ARB Needs to Take Some Cues From ETH Back in March, I said the
following:  The last nail in Arbitrum’s deathbed will be driven in on March 23.
Will ARB be laying in it by the end of the year? Arbitrum, if you’re unaware, is
a layer-2 protocol designed to help scale Ethereum. And th...

GET READY FOR THE RESET

If you’re like me, you’re probably dying of thirst for some Hopium-Ade right
now.  Bitcoin and Ethereum showed some life yesterday, which probably can be
partially attributed to Deutsche Bank announcing it will offer custody of
certain cryptos. But they have still stubbornly stayed range-bound.  M...

MAKER’S FUTURE BELONGS ON COSMOS, NOT SOLANA

You know the bear is bad when even Vitalik seems to have given up and started
selling. The Ethereum (ETH) cofounder sold about $580,000 of his holdings last
week.  But there’s more to the story. For one thing, he didn’t sell ETH, mind
you, but MKR, the governance token of MakerDAO.  The reason? ...

WE HAVE REACHED MAXIMUM BOREDOM

Bobbing up and down in the water, you’re about to fall asleep on your
surfboard...when all of a sudden… You feel a small force begin to lift you up.
The sound of churning water grows louder. Your body is being rushed toward the
shore.  Finally.  A wave is here.  You spring into action, crouching...

THE BITCOIN MILKSHAKE IS BACK ON THE MENU

Why Bitcoin’s Pumps Are So Parabolic As the voices drift closer, you hear the
door open. You close your eyes, grip the armrest of your couch a little tighter,
and take a deep breath.  Every parent dreads this moment. Your three kids just
got home from school, and you have to give them the news. I...

THE DEBT DOLLAR MELT-UP

You’ve probably never heard of George Warren before.  He was an agricultural
economist who had a couple notable accomplishments in his life: He wrote a book
on dairy farming, devised a way to get chickens to lay more eggs, and later,
altered the entire course of monetary history.  You see, Warren ...

GENSLER TAKES ANOTHER “L”

Crypto this summer has been unusually quiet. But this week, you didn’t have to
strain to hear the rejoicing that rose up across the market. On Tuesday, a court
overruled the SEC’s decision to block asset manager Grayscale from converting
its Bitcoin trust into an exchange-traded fund (ETF). The bat...

THE NEXT CRISIS IS ALREADY SOLVED

The Blend: The Biggest Takeaways From Jackson Hole MMT’ers have an uphill
battle. That’s my takeaway from my meander through the dozen or so articles,
handouts, and even some essays in relevant publications that came out of the big
event last week. The event is the Jackson Hole Symposium, a meeti...

THE SOLUTION TO COSMOS’ WOES IS HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before.  So, THORchain (RUNE) is a lending
protocol that allows users to swap assets across blockchain networks. And it
just launched a new lending primitive.  Here’s how it’s described by THORChain:
Opening new loans creates a deflationary effect on the $RUNE ass...
