The crickets are chirping. The last of the stage lights is flickering. And nobody knows how far down in the abyss we may go. — If I could personify the altcoin market today, I’d describe it as a washed-up fifty-year-old stripper getting thrown quarters for tips while dancing through the buffet day shift. It’s like the Las Vegas casino floor at 5:30 am, long after the late-night partiers have called it a night, and only…

Meanwhile, Nvidia is up a staggering 185% year-to-date, and Meta is up 142% since the new year began.

After getting repeatedly kicked in the nuts by DeFi gone wrong, I’m planting my flag on this project for the next bull run. — Three years ago, I was driving home from Las Vegas and played with the idea of investing $50,000 in Cardano.

Then it’s time for you to get orange-canned and get your BitBoost! — I used to be just like you. I was reading Medium articles and dreaming of traveling the world, quitting my job, buying a large mansion, and being a carefree playboy with the sexiest celebs like Amanda Bynes, Kathie Griffin, and Kathie Bates. “Confidence? What’s that?” said the old me. …

What I planned as a night for building camaraderie, long-lasting friendships, and some old-fashioned fun ended as a pity party for one that I hosted and attended. — I always prided myself on throwing and hosting great parties.

After 12 months and 25,000 miles of driving, here’s a 1-year update on my Hyundai Ioniq 5 — I didn’t buy a Tesla. Where I live, every other car is a white Tesla.

I didn’t want to fall into the conformity trap and…
