A ti yo sola no te dejaré
Me enchulé la primera vez que la vi
Me enamoré cuando con ella bailé
Desde hace rato se quería pegar
Tu suelo espalda contra la pared
Y si yo bajo, ¿sabes qué le haré?
Tú quieres mami
Se le miran los ojos
La mirilla se relambe
Él pinta el labio rojo
Esa cintura se está
Baby, si yo te cojo
Te subo a la altura
Tú dimos este record
Y yo, vamos ajarme dejo.
No se va a sentir cuando el lugar llegue yo.
Yo estaba coronando desde que era menor.
Por voto se ve bien, pero de frente es mejor.
Se dio un par de copas de pan.
El vino tinto me pedió pausa cuando iba por el quinto.
Le di una vuelta por el barrio con la quinto.
Ellos cuando me ven de frente quedan trinco
Sola la hace, sola la apaga
Y dentro la que esto se apaga
Está llamando mi atención para el que quiere que le haga
Tú quieres mami
Se le viran los ojos
La mirilla y se relanve
El pintalabio rojo Esa cintura es el tal, baby si yo te cojo, te subo a la altura, tu dimos te recono, cuando algo está pa' ti es inevitable, bebé tus canas son notables, vamos a hacerlo como si no hubiese ni televisión ni cable, esa mirada es la culpable, me estás mirando, vamos a hacerlo. y
y now La estamos loca con él, solo se toca con él, mirando la yon la voz Big day.
Astor Chain.
That song is... One of the best songs ever made.
This is a big day.
Astor Chain live.
We waited six months.
Little day, you mean?
What's that?
You mean it's a little day.
Little day.
Yeah, big things to come.
Here. You mean it's a little day? Little day. Yeah, big things to come. Here, I got TC Crypto.
They put out a little roadmap on what's to come.
So we got phase one kind of done out the way.
It looks like pretty much a success.
And tomorrow, I'm really looking forward to this.
We have a major partnership announcement.
Who do you suspect it is?
I don't know, bro.
I hope it's Binance's liquidity pool.
We had CZ.
He made two bullish tweets about Aster.
It pumped.
I'm happy to see he's still with us.
I figured he'd be done talking about Aster, to be honest, but he's still with us.
I'm still here for the show.
I was LARPing about a possible NFT launch, just a small little collection.
It's already got too much demand, to be honest, that I'm like,
you know what, I'm going to end up making more people upset than, um, than making happy. You know, not everyone's going to get picked. Someone's
going to buy the top. And I just, I don't know if I want to deal with that, that type of headache
book. So maybe doing something else on, I really want to do something on Aster books. I don't know
what it is. I'm also looking to invest in, in things that are on Aster, especially people around
me. Um, I don't know. What are you
kind of looking forward to when I ask you?
Right now, I'm looking
forward to
market conditions getting a little better.
I'm looking forward
to a March into
April pump.
And then I'm going to be looking forward to selling in May
and going away, Alex.
Well, you got a lot of stuff going on for you in Dubai. So,
I mean, I wouldn't blame you. I mean, everyone has pretty much quit Twitter. Even
Easy Eats made a tweet about this today.
He said, what happened to the app I once loved?
There was a 30-day period
where this app was really good recently.
The algorithm was good.
I saw a post I joined.
Now it's back to dumpster fire,
cesspool of vague posting
so everyone comments, explain.
Or generic three-part posts
with bulleted lines
and attach basic as fuck video
of nothing that relates to it.
Or AI video war or memeing
the war or some other topic trying to fish Nikita or Elon reply.
I don't know, man.
The algorithm I thought had a big shift and I made it very rare and I think it probably
it maybe got me under some fire for making people aware and maybe think it probably it may you know maybe got me under some some fire for for
making people aware and maybe they didn't want to um so it's better just don't even talk about it
leave it alone how do you think do you think it has something to do with the algorithm that there's
not many people left what do you think it has to do with no uh they are it does it does hexagons
to begin with alex when he removed the hexagons,
it was the first really bad thing for the space
and NFTs and all that.
And now the algorithm's definitely fucked well.
They don't want
us to win, G.
What do you mean by us?
Like, they don't want the crypto space to win.
But don't they know that this app is built on crypto?
Are they trying to, like, pretend it's not?
This app is built on crypto and finance.
I don't know.
I don't think they like that part of crypto, and they don't want it to be that way.
Again, it's like what him and his friends want.
It's not about what we want.
And that's what really sucks but hey i've accepted it at this point what's it going to take to bring people back onto crypto twitter
i don't know now we took advantage of it so bad, a lot of people from crypto Twitter did scam up.
What do you think, though?
Like, do you think they'll ever have people come back here?
I don't know, man.
I hope so.
I mean, it would take, like, the app, like, fully, like, falling apart.
And then them having to bring it back.
But I don't know if that's never happened before.
I don't know if it's going to happen.
So CZ actually put out a really good tweet today, Books,
outside of the Astor ones.
He was talking about the daily active users on Binance.
Now, let me go look for it real quick.
I thought this was really, or maybe just replied.
Ah, yeah, he replied to CryptoZeno.
I'm going to pin this to the top real quick.
Binance has, okay, what you're seeing here is not growth, it's positioning.
Binance, at 300 million users registered, is no longer competing inside Crypto Vertical.
It's stepping into the same arena of attention like Reddit and X.
The shift, that shift changes everything.
First exchanges used to fight for liquidity.
Now they fight for time and attention.
Platforms like TikTok or YouTube dominate because it's clearly moving in that direction with the ecosystem expansion. Second, 300 million users is still structurally different
from MAU or WAU metrics.
I don't know what that means.
Social platform reports active engagement
while buying supports registered users.
Gap matters.
Converting passive accounts into active daily users
is real battlefield if it wants to true rival Web2.
Third, the next phase
user growth in the loop finance can turn trading earning content and community into a close
attention economy it stops being an exchange and become the platform layer of the internet
the real question is not whether binance can reach 500 million users. It's whether it can become a place where users spend hours and not minutes.
CZ just replied with eyeballs emojis to that tweet.
he's paying attention.
He's like,
I imagine he sees he's got all these users on Binance,
they just don't use the Binance app.
But I'm looking at CT crypto Twitter
everyday books and I'm like man maybe I just pull on pivot to talking on Binance you know they don't
like us talking here on crypto Twitter might as well just might as well just start working over
there at um at Binance both but the problem is we need to be home.
What do you mean?
Like, we need to be home
for Binance. You can't be walking around
anywhere. You can't be going
nowhere for that.
Yeah, you can. What do you mean?
We need to be home on the laptop, like, to do both?
You're saying to do Twitter
and Binance?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Our biggest mistake
was not doing multiple platforms from the beginning for spaces.
So like OBS?
I feel like I've tried.
I put in a good effort on Kik and as well as YouTube,
and it just crypto content doesn't spread or get shared around like it does on Twitter.
There's no one...
It doesn't know what you're doing on YouTube.
Who on YouTube that you know that wasn't like a fucking 15 years ago YouTuber?
They all started earlier, I think, y'all.
Like, ran.
Yeah, it's like all these people that were, we didn't know about before Twitter was Twitter.
Before CT was CT, they had YouTubers.
Then we transitioned to CT.
But the people that had like a foothold
on YouTube kept it. But if you weren't there, you couldn't build one. You can't build one right now.
You can't build a foothold in YouTube. Good luck. Even with a massive CT following,
you can't, it can't be done. I don't care what anyone tells me. I feel like I really put a good
effort into it, books. And I even like was doing all the algorithm manipulation at the time when I was trying to do it. I had like TikTok Zoomer fucking content on YouTube.
And it wasn't even always about crypto.
It was about like trending topics.
But because we would put crypto in the mix of things, it would just shadow ban.
All of our crypto content just got shadow banned.
And when we would not do crypto content,
it would do like 10X, 20X the amount of views.
They really don't like crypto on any app books.
The problem is Twitter doesn't understand this.
They're like, hey guys, you guys don't understand.
Twitter was built or crypto, yeah, crypto built Twitter.
The act of Twitter is all crypto.
Has nothing to do with anything else.
Maybe a little bit of politics. Maybe.
But not really. I don't think so, Books.
I mean, maybe a little bit.
I think it's all
rooted in crypto.
And they're trying to deroot that.
I agree with you a lot. I don't think so.
They're derooting that?
They're derooting that? They're derooting that crypto
foundation
right now, it feels like? And we're just
watching the app.
Yeah, we're just watching the app kind of
fall apart in front of our faces.
It's like, wow. And they have
no intentions in my mind to bring people back.
I think they really want to turn this
into kind of like
a doom scrolling app where you're just
scrolling through mindless content. You get lost on the app and you don't even know you use the
app for seven to eight hours. You're like watching video or I don't know. I don't use TikTok and
YouTube or Instagram or any of the other. This is the only app I use. So I don't know how they
keep people on TikTok. Is it just like you're just watching a video
and you just keep swiping up and you never stop?
And then before you know it, you've been on there for eight hours?
You get lost in it?
Is that how it happens?
I think so, yeah.
Is TikTok addicting?
And you just...
Yeah, yeah.
It flies by.
It's like the casino.
It's like the casino mentality almost. It's addicting the lights and Yeah. Yeah. It flies by. It's like the casino. It's like the casino mentality almost.
It's addicting the lights and the things changing, different things, a lot of brain raw.
Hell yeah, it's addicting.
You know, two hours, three hours pass, you don't even notice it.
Yeah, and I think they're trying to turn that into, I think they're trying to kind of turn Twitter into that.
I think they're trying to turn Twitter into that.
Almost every post I see now books,
it has a picture or a small video of some sort.
It's no longer just text-based.
I really like the text-based style variant of Twitter.
Now it's all just video.
Video with just a caption.
That's what the best content does now is a captioned video not not just it used to be just text based it was really cool it felt
like you know you had to read but now you can just post videos and that's the
best content on this app it wasn't that that way. It's becoming that way.
Also have all, obviously we have the algorithm, the Clippers.
They've mastered the Twitter algorithm.
They can break through anyone's algorithm, whether you're crypto, whether you're sports.
And like they're kicking the politics.
They can tap into all the algorithms.
I'm like, man, they've really mastered this game.
Not because it's the best content.
It's because it's the best algorithm.
But Aster goes live.
You know, CZ makes two tweets.
We go from 75 cents to 76 cents.
And then we got a major brand partnership tomorrow. i don't know who that's going to be that's the next big um catalyst for aster i didn't really see i was i was going i
went in the discord i was trying to see like what is anyone built because i imagine there were people
building on testnet and i was trying to look to see i couldn't really find anyone books did you find a new one nah bro it's fucking
there's zero excitement alex there's zero anything going on with this right now
well you gotta bring the excitement books i'm down to bring the excitement
i mean i don't they have the ambassadors those guys can bring oh don't do this to me book
that's what i'm that's what i was saying no, that's what I was thinking. No, no, that's what I was thinking. You know, you know what I mean?
Let's check out Astrodex.
What are they saying?
So their last tweet was.
What are the, what are the ambassadors saying?
Are those...
Do we have a list of...
I'm just going to ask Rock.
What are the lists of ambassadors?
We'll get one up here.
Give me a list of Astro ambassadors.
Give me a list of Astro ambassadors.
ambassador ambassadors
The term aster ambassador most commonly official so we've got
Okay, asterjack doesn't publish a single public list on their main
site-based available info, but several individuals have publicly
announced their appointments of X with an official MasterDeck ambassador in their bio
to post. Here's a list of confirmed slash recently ones from public. We got RAM, DC
Crypt, Blue Chip OG, Moeeth Whale. Others men suggest more exist exist I don't know if I'm like um I'm gonna
ask this court is there a list for aster ambassador because I do have some questions about after
there a list or aster How are things in Dubai?
Clear skies.
Nice weather.
Nice weather. Nice weather.
Is that Gizan?
Is that Gizan?
No, I don't think that was Gizan.
It sounded like him.
I could put someone on that you don't want to hear if you'd like.
that you don't want to hear if you'd like.
Put Cozy on.
Put Cozy on.
The first thing I do when I get back to Dubai,
I'm putting Cozy in a headlock.
He's talked so much shit on the internet.
Not a peep, IRL, right?
Okay. Oh, man.
Hold on, hold on.
I'm putting him up oh my god
he walks like you alex but on the street folks he's scared to speed up him cozy i got something
on the phone that wants to hear you talk who is it what up? How are we doing over here? Yo! Yo! What's up, Legend?
What up, man?
I'm trying to get the official list for the Aster Ambassadors.
You're trying to get this?
What's that?
I say put me on.
Alex, are you an Aster ambassador?
Who's that? I'm not. Why not?
I thought that was your friend. I want to be.
I want to have a deal.
Yo, I sat there, Alex, with the guy.
Like, you're sitting in front of someone
he doesn't know you want to strangle him,
but you want to strangle him and you're sitting there
thinking whether you should do it or not.
That's how it felt, Alex.
Y'all sitting there
just thinking about strangling him.
Who, Cozy?
No, no, the other guy.
I don't want to say.
Did you see?
They did Mission Impossible.
They literally laid a zero after 20 minutes.
Is it still a zero?
How do you even do that?
How did you do that?
What's it at right now?
Bro, they straight up scammed, bro.
They scammed the ass machine. Can we not do this? It doesn that doesn't make sense why do you have to take
it to that level books probably because this is the problem it's like everyone on this app thinks
that they're good at marketing and they do marketing and then they can't get a like on a tweet
like how did they i don't wonder we did their job for them but we made them look like
and what they did was
they were slick
they hit up every single one of us
right away
like they saw what was happening
they knew that they were not marketers
they knew that they were scammers
and they gave us that 35% commission thing
you understand
so that they can claim us
so they can say
oh these are RKOLs
that's what they fucking did, Alex. How
could I not be mad about that? Well, no, they got
two-legged. I take that back.
Yep, it's up to two after four hours.
Great marketers, let me tell you. great marketers.
Let me tell you.
Oh my God.
the thing I'm looking forward to tomorrow is,
like I said, pinned to the top.
So today was the chain launch.
Tomorrow, we have our big partnership announcement.
The next day is the public staking.
And then the next day, we have ecosystem expansion.
And then the last thing on the roadmap is the brand and UI upgrade.
I'm just ready to start trading on there, to be honest, Books. I want to test it out.
Completely privacy chain. I want to give it a go. It's going to be interesting. We're going to be trading stuff
and we don't know how much or where. I don't know how that's going to work. I really don't
understand how that's going to work. I want to see it in action. I want to see something traded
on chain. But if it's all private, it's like you buy... The way I look at it is like you're buying
a private NFT on chain. You won't even know how much you paid for it,
how many NFTs. I don't understand
how it's going to work, so I want to see it
in action. I don't even know
if they care about NFTs and meme coins.
Maybe they don't.
But that drives
in a bunch of actual
The meme coin stuff.
You guys can't...
If it's real privacy, it'll be
like Coinbase. Like, Coinbase has the
best privacy when it comes to pre-sales.
Like, when the Monad sale happened,
it was private, right?
Nobody could see it.
But Coinbase, you know?
So maybe like that, or no one
could see it, but Aster can't.
Just give me a second.
I'm trying to get the Aster ambassador list, the official one.
Because I saw a lot of people put one out,
and I wasn't sure if those were official or not.
They're super responsive in the discord
this person says
you know why I don't like joining the discord
because it's such
it's just like this hive minded mentality
this person says right here,
I think we should remove all the people who are so worried about the price
because they are bringing bad energy here,
and I feel like they will sell anyway soon.
That's what they said.
On the Discord stuff, it's...
You got to have a really good group, in my opinion, in the Discord.
You got to go in the Discord, and it's just nothing but good vibes to have a good Discord.
Anything other than that, you better just shut down the Discord.
Because one person can really do a lot of damage in the Discord.
I've seen it play out firsthand. A lot of people that couldn't pump a chart, put a dollar, couldn't onboard a user,
can still just off-board because how off-putting they are to others.
Even if there's a holder, those know, like those people that do that
in the Discord, they need removed
in my opinion.
Because that's where everyone's landing.
You know, however they got there,
like let's say they get through this space
or they get through, you know, there through like a
If they land there and then they're complaining
or they don't like the way things are going,
like you got to remove that.
Now, there's a difference between complaining and actual feedback.
You got to differentiate between the two.
That's where the moderators have to step in.
But a well-oiled Discord, I mean, those things are invaluable.
So they're doing a good job in the Discord.
I'm still trying to get this.
Okay, let me see. Best thing I can do books to bring more people into Acer is just launch something on chain
deploy something on chain or build an app that brings users to the chain it's not about what
the chain can do for me books it's about what I can do for the chain if we had that
yeah we got to do some different shit, Alex.
Something. I don't know what it is.
completely different, bro.
I mean, at this...
At this point,
if you can think of it, it's been built
in crypto, in my opinion. Especially
with the use of AI. You know, you can just say,
hey, give me some ideas.
And it'll just spit out ideas for you.
And then it'll just build it for you.
What's most important now, more than ever, it's not about the tech.
No one's about the tech.
Not about the app.
It's all about the users.
Do the users find the experience good?
It doesn't matter what someone thinks.
The users use it. That's
what all that matters. That's
all that matters now. AI has
neutralized everything. Your
tech is like no one cares.
Like no one cares. That's what it comes
... ... you what about a token gated nft launch
see i think tokens i think like whether it's meme meme coins and nfts have a really good
i've been really good at getting users to convert to a new chain
but like if you did a this is just an idea and you're the expert on NFTs, not me. I don't even know if this is possible, but if you hold 100 Aster Spot tokens, you're eligible in the next 24 hours for an NFT mint.
It's possible.
Well, from my experience with NFTs and meme coins, I watched all of the on-chain traders convert from Ethereum to Solana.
Now, how do we get all those users from go to Solana to Aster?
And it's done...
A fire collection.
Well, collection, meme coins, they have to outperform Solana.
That's what they have to do.
And I believe, books, what do you think?
Do you think Solana early days was supporting their meme coins,
the foundation themselves?
We'll repeat the question.
Solana, you broke up.
Whenever we were trading...
Solana, meme coins, don't you think?
Like, that's all I heard.
Do you think the foundation, the Solana meme coins, don't you think? Like, that's all I heard. Do you think the foundation, the Solana Foundation,
supported some meme coins to drive people away from Ethereum to Solana?
What was it that really got people to convert from Ethereum to Solana?
Bonk was the main one.
Bonk first, yeah.
Bonk was the main one. Bonk first, yeah. Bonk was the main one.
Alex, do you remember when we were scanning
our cards at that place
and they gave us the cards with our PFPs on them?
In Taiwan at
Solana Hacker House?
That was them onboarding
people to Bonk right there. Then the
phone and then Whiff
and everything else.
So they need to go out and do that themselves,
right? That's what Aster's, that's what
set up, if they care about the on-chain
traders, like if they want to capture them.
I don't know if that's what they're after, Books.
We need to get a good AMA and ask
these questions.
A lot of the... I thought we were getting an AMA every week
but CZ is not the one to ask these questions
too is he?
no we're going to ask Leonard or someone from the team
what if he just walks away
in the middle of the question
we gotta ask Dust
is dust still
can you can you look real quick
can you check if dust is still posting about it
is he still around
I haven't heard from him in a minute
what's his handle
dust zero okay
dust z zero
wow he hasn't made a tweet since November books Oh, DustZero. Okay. DustZero.
Wow, he hasn't made a tweet since November, books.
He didn't even tweet about the launch today.
How about replies?
Last reply was about Machimo replying to Jamesames winn in november is that okay really
what the hell take a photo of that take a photo of that cozy or prime take a figure
take a picture of this a good one what damn did week girl yo that's an absolute
got it g already got it yeah what's that sound what is that
is that sdo or What's that? Yeah, some bullshit, Alex.
Uh, STM says, ask her, okay, stop.
It says, um, believe in some time, why are you shit?
Uh, I'm actually just right, turn around. living in the future uh that's right
that combination That combination will
in the race. My mind is weird for trading, but when it comes to buying and holding,
it's Aster and Hype. What Jeff and Hyperliquid team have built speaks for itself. Strong
product, strong execution, strongest community in space. And CZ and Leonard behind Aster,
the ability to plug Aster into the Binance flywheel makes the opportunity massive.
This is not the end of the move.
This is the beginning. Aster coded.
That was SDM.
Brainlet says, yes, bro.
Hold both. Tribalism gets no one
Yeah, from what I can see
from the early
soul holders,
it was Bonk.
Predominantly Bonk.
Then it was like Miro.
It was also their marketing.
You know what else pisses me off, Alex?
Oh, boy. What pisses me off, Alex? Oh, boy.
What pisses you off?
They went and paid every influencer but us.
Like the same influencers that were saying we got paid in November and September and October got paid now.
Can't make this shit up, G.
You talking about soul?
No, I'm talking about ass oh gotcha
like there's a lot of guys in my family chat um they had no idea about memes but they were buying
bonk they were buying soul they were buying all the main listed on the main page of Coinbase.
They were really good at marketing and keeping it up top on the main page.
Are you going to quit and give up when he shows the new PerpTex?
Or you're just trying to make me crash out books?
Yo, you're going to crash out if it happens, bro.
I hope it doesn't.
I mean, I won't have it in me to push for another thing.
I'll be like, ah, I'm going to take a step away.
I'm going to let this roadmap play out, though.
I want to see it play out.
I think right now, right now, sentiment, I don't know if it's just sentiment is low
or there's just not a lot of people around.
I think it has more to do with there's not a lot of people
I mean, when we were at $2...
The new one is coming.
I have a feeling, Alex. I really
do, bro. I don't think so.
That's like... To make something
up like that is like super far-fetched,
up like that is like super far-fetched,
What is books' basis
for this? For your theory
books? No, no, no.
I can't say that. I can't say that.
Well, you did.
You just did.
I can't say
Do you have a short open right now, Books?
No, I don't.
But I want to.
I want to.
I want to.
I would never.
I would never.
I would never.
I would just not touch it. The I would never. I would never. I'm thinking about it.
I would just not touch it.
The thing is that the whole market pumps.
There's no way it's going to dump.
Yeah, I would never.
The opportunity to just turn on the fuck you switch is always there.
There for after.
I would never.
I would never.
I would just be sidelined before I would try to short it.
I'm like, I'm just going to sideline myself and wait for an entry just not i'm not with short
not too much it's got way too much upside and very limited downside especially these prices
books i mean it's not like a bill or something two bill not even two bill downside on this is i
mean we've had main coins pump higher than this market cap that we're at. You know, Peanut was double this market cap at its all-time high.
So I'm like, yeah, I would never want to put myself in that position.
But I don't mind shorting hype.
That's one is like, you've got...
Let me ask you a question.
Is Peanut supply $10 billion with $3 billion circulating?
Wasn't it on a pump fund?
Yeah, peanut was a yeah.
It was our best pump fund, guys.
Peanut was pump fund, yeah.
And it was
it was the one of the last
Binance won at the list.
It reached the highest
market cap for any
pump fund meme coin, but now it's down 98%
literally.
But I don't think...
If you're new to crypto,
you would probably call that a scam.
Do you not have a
$400 million
KOL round? Here we go.
Private round, seed round.
No, I'm just asking.
These are good questions alex well i'm gonna try it i'm gonna try to do something i don't know what i'm gonna do
uh little lambo says long aster it's going to it's going it's going to go on a hype-esque
run says little lambo and he is a he was like a hardcore meme coin shiller you guys know him
little moon lambo anyone anyone thanks uh i've heard of him but i don't agree with that statement
i i think hype has a 3x 3 to 4x in it i think aster has a 7 to 10x in it he said a hype like run
a 10x in it he said a hype like run you know i mean but he also said long i don't agree with
buying they're you're forcing them to wick people in and out and they make money doing that yesterday
aster made 500k doing that wicking out the shorts just buy spot let them do their thing
unless you're gonna kind of dangerous unless you're gonna perpetrate other
things on their platform like eth bitcoin i wouldn't touch a perpetrate on a coin that
i want to move up that's just my opinion
how are the uh pump fund meme coins trading today link pretty good really yeah i mean
not from today like i said you've got to be selective so like when i sent punch in your chat
it was that 5.9 mil it broke 21 mil today. One of my friends
that... How about
White Whale?
I mean, my White Whale entry is 1.9
mil, so it's fantastic still.
You're crazy, bro.
You should have been fucking hard and laid.
I sold a lot at
between 160 and 190.
It was main character
for a couple.
I wouldn't
fade guys that.
Link, think about that one, Link.
It was main character for a couple days.
What else? I mean, I'm in
the private TG, so I see what they're doing.
I'll tell you
something else. James Wynn had a harder
pump on his first coin than White Whale,
I'm pretty sure. You're talking about
that pig coin that
went to 100 mil?
there was one that went really hard. I forget the name of it.
If you're in the chat.
But everyone launches a coin
on their main character, and then
when that main character dies out game. Oh
I didn't even know why will was a person for a while
Yeah, I've been following him another guy named no limit gains for quite a bit
quite a bit.
No Limit Gains is more well-known in the TradFi space as well
and geopolitical area, but he does fuck with memes sometimes.
Yeah, I don't know about memes, but I'm killing it in Flanko right now.
Flanko? Flanko?
Yeah, there's a few that, Alex, that pump.
So a good entry last week was Punch.
Another good entry last week was Testicle.
It had a good run-up today.
Those moonshot notifications are actually, I don't know if it was Pump or Moonshot,
but I got the Punch one on my phone, and then I check my DM maybe half a day later,
hours later, and Link sends me to 15 million to 21 million.
Hear me out. Hear me out. Hear me out.
We get Arthur Hayes to launch a coin and we call it Black Whale.
There's already a Black Whale? Someone launched it right away, right after it.
A lot bigger than Arthur Hates.
We get Machi to launch a token and call it China Whale.
Machi's doing some serious work behind the scenes right now.
What's he doing, Link?
Just a lot of big names that he's inviting into his chat.
And they seem to be backing him.
All right, Link.
Link, what you think are big things, we've learned our lessons with.
You understand?
Am I wrong, Alex?
Don't listen to him, Link.
Keep the optimism.
Books is upset for whatever reason.
I'm not upset, bro. He's top golf was closed today that's what it is he didn't go golf I didn't get my hopes I
didn't get my hopes up bro who was that somebody is random people get down get
down somebody is random people get down get down get down
yo you're upset too, Alex.
I'm not upset.
I said on Spaces multiple times, though,
to have an app ready day one for the launch for people to do things.
And don't rely on the community to do this.
I said this multiple times.
No, they got the ambassadors.
No, I don't think you can rely on the community to...
I wouldn't rely on the community at all.
I would have, like...
What about the ambassadors, though?
You are upset about the ambassador stuff, not me.
I've had a deal with...
Well, I'm up to principal, bro.
They should have reached out. I've had to deal with... The principal, bro, they should have reached out.
I've had... And you know it.
I had to deal with the SUI ambassadors.
It's more so
just to show
recognition to people within the community.
Bro, they don't...
We already get so much clout and attention, they don't, we don't, you know, we already get so much
clout and attention, we don't need any more.
We need more clout
and attention books?
principal.
Principal.
Again, would I rather say, you know what,
I'll donate my salary to giggles academy
cz or aster and that's that that's how i would have looked at it
all right we're gonna get one of these ambassadors.
I'm waiting to get this list, and we're going to get them on his face.
Hear from the ambassadors.
What does that roll even do?
What's everyone else looking at the market also um i'm asking the audience what do you think of the aster chain launch i'm going to pin that to the top i want to see what everyone else thinks
uh right now roman says first time i'm reading about aster chain launch uh yump says up only
aster farmer says impressed only the beginning for Aster.
Peter said, excited for the future.
So everyone's excited, books.
Big things, they delivered.
They delivered.
They delivered.
Like they said, they would Q1.
Before the end of Q1, they delivered.
Now they got more stuff on the roadmap for us to look forward to.
Now they got more stuff on the roadmap for us to look forward to.
What I'm most disappointed in books are the people, not the team, the people.
We had so many people at $2.50.
And now when you should have a lot of people at $0.70, there's no people.
I'm disappointed in the people books.
We should have had this morning, because we
started a space this morning.
We should have had 700 people
ready to hear about Astor Layer
1. We had 100 people.
What happened to the people book?
There's going to be another
Astor space. It's going to be one of the ambassadors hosting it that farmed us.
And they'll answer all the questions there, Alex.
Just get ready for it, bro.
Where are some of the ambassadors, people that were in your space?
I don't know.
You just can't make Books happy.
He'll just become...
Was there like an application?
Did you guys fill out or something?
I don't know.
I'm sure if we reached out to them,
they would have put us on the list.
I got to imagine or guess who one of them is.
Didn't you get...
But Books, didn't you get invited to private
dinners, private meetups with the team
that no one else got included in?
I'm pretty sure
that you got one in New York and in
Dubai. No one else
These guys, these KOLs,
hard to work with.
Once they go famous in Dubai, forget about it.
Impossible to work with.
Yo, can you hear me?
I just dropped five Planko balls at one time because I was feeling myself.
All five went into the fucking void hole.
I'm like doing insane at the same time.
Okay, Astor's or Ambassador's sign-up will open this week.
Will be posted soon is what I just got.
Astor's sign-up will open this week.
So, Books, I think they're going to have people signing up for the Astor.
I think it's people that probably reached out to the team asking to be ambassadors.
And they're like, yeah, you can be an ambassador.
So, are you going to sign up, Books?
All right.
Then you got nothing to stand on them, Books.
I'll put his name in the hat.
I know he wants it handed to him.
The only thing I want to do is build a good product.
Not a meme coin, not an NFT.
Some good, good product.
That's what I care about right now.
What is it?
I'm telling you right now, it can't be a terminal.
Can't be a meme coin
launchpad.
It's just going to have to be something new.
Can't be a prediction market.
There's a lot of new possibilities.
Like a lot of new stuff being built recently on another chain because of the recent AI stuff.
There's tons of options now.
Yeah, I mean, you can just build everything now.
You can literally build anything and everything you can think of with these apps now for the AI.
They can integrate into the blockchain.
They can do everything.
It just comes down to you and your imagination at this point.
Whatever you can imagine can come alive.
We're going to see so many apps spring up
and we're going to see so little user base with it.
Does the privacy aspect give like more options, I guess?
Are there like privacy specific type apps on other chains or anything like that?
That's what I was thinking like, okay, well, we have this privacy aspect to Aster.
How can we leverage that?
Because then you can't replicate that on any other chain
and it'll be proprietary.
So that's what I've been thinking.
Like, how can we make a privacy leveraged app?
And that's all I've been thinking about really today.
I'm not like,
I don't really think it's the first to market
that really wins especially right now
you got to
well I definitely think there is something to say about first to market but right now
it's anyone's
game to build the app that brings people
on to Acer
and if you build that
you're going to be the next
billionaire
crypto founder.
That's just the way it works.
I bet you Alon, the founder of PumpFun,
makes more Solana than the founder of Solana.
What do you think?
What do you think?
CFTC issues clarity for non-custodial crypto wallets providers to facilitate trades.
Today, the commission issued an interpretation that clarifies the application of federal security laws to crypto assets.
This is a major step to provide greater clarity regarding commissions treatment of crypto assets.
SEC clarifies the application of federal security laws of crypto assets.
So they went into a press release on this.
Anyone read this yet?
I'm about to read this press release out loud.
Yeah, read it on. I haven't read it.
Okay. SEC clarifies the application of federal security laws to crypto. SEC today issued
interpretation clarifying how the federal security laws apply to certain crypto assets
and transactions involving crypto assets. This is a major step.
Okay. After more than a decade of uncertainty, the interpretation will provide market participants a more clear understanding of how commissions treat crypto assets under federal security laws.
This is what regulatory agencies are supposed to do, draw clear lines.
Oh my gosh, it's not even telling me anything.
For far too long, no.
The commission's interpretation
provides... Wait.
Didn't even say anything.
This, what is
press release?
I'm not reading the actual
press release. I know it's got to be somewhere else.
The SEC interpretation actually benefits crypto investors
by delivering long thought clarity after years of uncertainty.
It states most crypto assets aren't securities.
Investment contracts can end freeing tokens and provide taxonomy,
distinguishing commodity stablecoins.
It clarifies jurisdiction and reduces enforcement risk, paving the way for innovation and growth
without over-regulation. So, I mean, it just looks like we're getting more deregulation
from what I'm reading, which I think crypto needs fully deregulation. Why do we need regulation on
crypto? Wasn't it supposed to be like an anti-regulation thing to begin with
but then you guys want to add regulation it's like if you guys want to trade regulation just
go trade stock market it's there why come to crypto is my question you are the one in the
problem trying to change what doesn't need change we got sdm on the panel. SDM, you see Aster launch through layer one?
I like that rollout.
That was good.
Fan of it.
I'm a big fan of the rollout.
I'm a big fan of just, I mean, in general.
I just like that people are having the confidence to launch in a bear market.
I don't know, man.
I think the people that jump on board now start building, you know,
finding real use applications for a privacy chain.
You know, they're going to benefit during the bull run.
We'll see, man.
I think like right now, like out of all the projects that are kind of going around to have kind of like a clear you know drop date with you know a schedule to
look forward ahead and how to position your trades around i think it's uh yeah it's just
bullish it has like an actual schedule i mean there's so many times so many companies we're
sitting back waiting for you know the pump fun pump fund, airdrop, things of that nature.
You know, this thing is going to continue to scale with or without, you know, support.
And yeah, they already have the money.
And I think, you know, jumping on an ambassador program, I think that would be cool if you're into it.
cool if you're into it. You know, I've been just pushing it grassroots just because I feel like
it's one of those products that, you know, 10 billion, 20 billion, $30 billion market cap is
just going to creep up on its own. But we need something like an Aster chain. I think we need
privacy chains that, you know, are very user-friendly and builder-friendly. And, uh, yeah,
I think that's where you're going to have billion dollar, you know, projects being built off of it.
And, uh, you know, I, I just think it's really interesting because it's making people
that I guess have launched things and built things in the space realize like, okay, like I'm going
to actually have to get a team together, whether it's an AI agent, you know, a trading bot,
things to assist, you know, the PerpDex aspect of it, or, you know, something completely different.
And that's what I like. It's making people think as builders and as traders. And I think that's
what we need more of in this space, right? That's how you make money in the space. You build a great
product or you trade. And, you know, the Astro Chain's forcing people make money in the space you build a great product or you trade and uh you know
the aster chain's forcing people to think in that manner so yeah really bullish um kicking myself on
a few of the trades but i really like what link said you know i try to not trade aster unless i'm
longing it you know i'll long aster and then reinvest in aster when it dips um but outside
of that man i've seen these ingredients before
and I've seen them scale out over two, three years.
We're just six, seven months, eight months into this.
You know, things didn't pan out for certain people
regarding Aster early on.
One thing that I'm really frustrated is, you know,
they did, you know, they gave somebody like a cooker you know a ton of a
ton of opportunity and you know that guy obviously has like a loyal to loyalty to hyper liquid which
is kind of frustrating because you know there was obviously you know bad actors supporting
aster early on and i like it consolidating sideways because you you know, the longer it consolidates sideways,
you know, the longer it'll kind of show like,
hey, who's here to support a project?
Who believes in Leonard and CZ?
And whoever that is, they're going to benefit long-term.
And I think the more Dexes that pop out,
the more competitive, like the thing is,
is I have never seen a Perp Dex scale out the way Aster has with or without a supportive market.
It's going to move upwards and build with or without a bull market.
And I think that's incredibly bullish.
So, you know, I think a lot of perp Dexes are going to be playing catch up to Aster.
And then the market price will show for itself in a few months.
We'll be talking about wishing we bought it at 70.
I'm just grokking right now what grok thinks, how we can leverage a privacy chain.
What would be beneficial?
It mentions private perpetual derivatives trading.
So, I mean, Astro already has that.
Privacy preserving DeFi, private lending, borrowing, shield your positions, collateral, debt, or yields to prevent surveillance or targeted attacks.
Providing lending protocols like ave forks dark pools
dexes yield bearing stables um you got anonymous payments and wallets everyday private transfers
stealth addresses so i think that's already built by astro i think you get an anonymous
wall they were saying something like your wallet address changes from time to time. Yo, how much did Dogecoin pump?
Elon posted the dogs with the Dogecoins.
A few hours ago.
What is it?
I think it did nothing.
A few hours ago, too.
He posted...
I don't see any post by him.
With dogs?
Four hours ago?
Happy St. Patrick's Day.
Oh, yeah, the Doge is in the middle.
We're saying this is a Dogecoin show?
Not Dogecoin didn't pump.
That's a pretty loose shill, though, books.
We also have private prediction markets.
Now that's,
that's an interesting one,
You can't see how much is bet.
Yes or no.
Right now.
That's interesting.
That's very interesting.
And don't forget they have partnerships being announced this week.
So now I'm not, I'm not going to jump to conclusions, but whoever partners with Aster is going to be able to build something
incredibly, incredibly big. Like I said, Aster is a tool.
You're going to make money by buying and holding Aster because the token
itself is going to grant, you know, staking.
It's going to be used as a token for,
you know, whatever it is, the prediction markets, the way to feed agents. You just buy and hold
that shit, man. That's, you know, this is very interesting the private prediction market
well dude i mean the second the the mainnet launched and they listed the schedule
i'm like oh my god i can't wait for the partnership announcements.
The partnerships is, to me, that's going to be the indicator of where we're going with that chain.
So look at it this way, guys. Whenever you have a prediction market, you have your yes and no.
Let's say, will oil be above $100, right? Yes or no. So right now it's like 80% yes, 20% no. And what that means is I can buy a 20% no for 20 cents on the dollar if it resolves
to no or 80 cents on the dollar if it resolves to yes. But if I don't know and I'm just buying,
I don't know how many shares I bought, it'll incentivize people because they may think that, wow, you know what?
Maybe it's like in a different – they won't be able to tell how much those shares are being sold for.
I don't know if that makes sense, but that's a speculation we've never seen.
You're buying – you're really buying the unknown when it comes to what's the value of this yes and no that I'm
buying right now. Now that's pretty interesting. It might incentivize people to bet more because
they don't see, because sometimes when I'm looking at a bet, I'm like, oh, I'm going to bet 99 cents
to win a dollar. I don't even want to bet, but now you won't know what that is. And the ratios
may be all off, but you can't see it. So that's pretty interesting.
A private prediction market.
Private gaming and NFTs,
hidden ownership,
private in-game economies or shielded asset transfers.
Private NFT marketplace,
games with confidential state,
hidden strategies in on-chain games.
We're going to definitely see some new shit we have never seen before
exactly it's gonna attract builders who actually bring value
like there's gonna be things being built on aster it's gonna attract i think the best builders in
the space and uh oh they might even already have those guys in the house ready to launch something
They might even already have those guys in-house ready to launch something.
So, you know, it's a sit back, relax scenario.
Sit back, relax, buy the dips.
Trade, you know, the volatility in the markets, you know, Ethereum, Bitcoin, trade on those.
And just, you know, buy more.
Like I said, find something to believe in, you know.
Either stay on a boat, jump off the boat said find something to believe in you know either stay on a boat
jump off the boat buy something to believe in and uh oh man i've already sat back and watched
this happen twice um and this thing actually has more upside than both of those ones that i saw
rip up to incredible market cap so we'll see how this goes, man. I'm excited.
I'm excited.
It's just patience.
That's why I have cash flow outside of crypto.
I have things to do.
Stay busy.
And just like I said, believe in something. And I think Aster and CZ and Leonard, they're going to deliver something that the market didn't even know they wanted.
It's not just a perp text.
I'm excited.
Yeah, I think that's what we're most looking forward to is the partnerships
that will be announced tomorrow.
Yes, the partnerships is going to be huge, man.
The partnerships is going to be huge, man.
CZ's also, he made two tweets about it today.
So he's still on board.
Of course he is.
He said he was checking out the Aster, what's it called?
Like Aster scan?
You can see what you can see and he's like i don't
know how to read this it scrolls too fast and then he also just quote tweeted whenever aster said
um their their live moment so really cool to see cz getting in there in the weeds
cz owns 90 of the supply pretty much right right? The same way Leonard and the team
own most of the supply.
And they want to...
These guys are in it. They're in it for the long haul, man.
Like, their life...
I mean, their life legacy
is these products.
So, you know,
the same way Elon has all of his
equity in Tesla.
Same exact thing.
You bet on the big, like the thing is, is I just don't have to worry about these guys like flying a kite once it hits like X billion, like a billion dollar market cap, whatever the market cap is.
I don't have to worry about these guys not delivering.
They're delivering during a bull market or a bear market.
Wait until a bull market what they're going to be able to do.
It's going to be sick.
Man, if you can run against the wind, wait until the wind is behind your back.
You're going to run.
No one wants to run against the wind, though, STM.
They want the wind at their back. Every time i mean that's easy when we were at set when we were
pumping up two dollars plus oh my god we had the wind at our back it was like you know what i mean
we're just we're pumping but now that it's where it's at winds in our face it's starting to fucking
snow and we got we got wet boots and we're still trying to move forward who wants to do that
not many people but those are the ones that win those are the ones that i mean i'm i'm just i like
to be lined up with winners during these type of down times um you know it's like uh have you know
it's like a bunch of your buddies get together and they have their football teams.
Halfway through the season, they jump ship, right?
But, you know, those are, I mean, counting out like a Tom Brady,
a Phil Belichick, they're going to figure it out, right?
And that's just how I look at it, man. Like, the proof is in the pudding.
These guys have won multiple Super Bowls and they still want to win more.
100%. If you have like a negative
I just don't even want to round you.
I'm like, I don't want to be around
negativity, but also look,
I'm willing to critique the
product and I obviously know exactly what
happened. Look, we did a massive
burn like right before the
10-10. 10-10 10 10 happened you know we might
have propped up the wrong kols and rewarded the wrong kols with you know early rounds all of that
that might have had a vested interest elsewhere and there's like a lot of little incremental
things that could piss us off but at the end of the day like we're still here we just went up like if you got astor at 67 68 dollars you're making money in spot
that stuff's gonna you know i'm not gonna run to the hills about the price because i think astor
right now belongs at like three three dollars four dollars during this time frame and i think
it'll consolidate up there.
But dude, the way I look at it is like,
they don't just have to rely on the perp decks
to generate volume and revenue.
They're going to have so many different arms
to generate revenue and fees
that they're able to say,
hey, there's no gas fees on this one
because they're already collecting fees
on the other end, right?
And then on top of that,
they have so many revenue streams that they're just going to be able to like, they're going to
be able to scale out infinitely, man. I mean, you have a think tank and dude, you not think YZI Labs
isn't looking for things to add on to Aster's private chain or like integrate into Aster?
integrate into Aster.
You know, they don't just want to build competitors.
You know, they don't just want to build competitors.
The VC, right?
It's a fund that's supposed to build out the ecosystem.
They're building.
Yeah, like you said, it's gas-free transactions.
We've never seen that before.
We've never seen 100,000 plus transactions.
We've never seen privacy,000 plus transactions. We've never seen privacy,
like trading on privates. I haven't seen it. I know it exists. I know this exists,
but I've never seen it. So this would be my first time. I don't think the masses have ever traded with privacy like this. I don't think there's many people trading with Monero or Zcash on chain.
Maybe you're buying them. So this is going to be-
Monero, Zcash, they're one-trick ponies.
So yeah, it's like
we got a lot of opportunity.
I've been saying crypto needs
a new trading game
that we haven't mastered
and we need to figure out
how it all works.
We've mastered meme coins,
You can't really master
prediction markets.
They've been trying to pitch that
as the next trading game.
That already
Web2 at a bigger scale.
Props, betting, it already exists.
Right. I mean, they could
gamify the interface of trading.
They could gamify it.
I don't know what that
looks like, but they could gamify it. And, you know, I don't know what that looks like, but they could
gamify trading. They can gamify the space as a whole. You know, like I said, the gamification
of education is around the corner. We're looking at companies like Khan Academy, you know,
they're educating kids through gamification. I mean, Elon Musk said,
if we can gamify the education system,
if they can release tutorials on how to trade,
all this stuff, I think it's just going to,
like I said, it's a one-stop ecosystem
that people can spend time, build, and make money.
Have you guys overlaid,
I know there's some doubt about how the launch went,
but I think the launch went how it was supposed to. Have you guys overlaid i know there's some doubt about how the launch went but i think the launch went
how it was supposed to have you guys overlaid the hype launch and also the solana launch with
astor's launch yeah it was it was doing better than both of them yeah and the thing is is like
in a shorter period like they didn't have to deal with a bear market, a 10-10. And, you know, within a seven-month time frame, we're still sitting pretty.
I mean, they're...
So, Seoul went up to about 90 cents, retraced down to 40, went sideways.
From about now until June, where it went straight up to about $5,
and then it retraced back to one dollar
before it took off right and then hype was i remember like two months in like aster was out
the gate better than all of these out the gate and like it's sitting fine right now i'm not even
worried about it yeah now's the time i think it's good for people to realize like oh all of these you
know these products that are being compared to it they've been around a lot longer and it's
you know you have to kind of like educate people on these things
for sure the interesting thing about the user uh gaining users is going to be how they're going to
go around the regional bands about it i'm interested to see how they do that as much
as we want to say crypto is decentralized there is these there's the central centralization aspect
with each country there is there is yes so i'm interested to see how
they go about um getting users to want to hop on board and
bypass those restrictions
but it looks great right now.
It's one of, I'm glad I came across you guys because it's one that, I mean, if it doesn't go well,
shit happens, but I have more confidence
that it could be something big than not.
Absolutely.
I'm not worried about it.
I don't feel like it's, you know,
like a lot of these products that over-promised and under-delivered.
I mean, if we didn't have a 10-10 scenario,
nobody would be complaining about Astor's price.
And I don't know what kind of like La La Land people live in.
That was the biggest mass extraction event we've seen in the space
and for a new product to sustain itself where the hell is xpl where's plasma the one that all
the other kols were pushing where's that like aster we're still talking about it not because
we're forced to talk about it because i'm like holy holy shit, this thing survived. And not only survived, it's pushing because the thing is,
it has the largest funding out of any product.
It has Binance behind it, YZI Labs, CZ.
This thing is...
Dude, I mean, you don't even have to go out there
and have an incredible price point.
You don't.
90% of your competition isn't going to survive this bear market it's about outlasting right now
so you're saying buying all those dips was a good idea it's oddy absolutely bro yeah yeah do you see that if you were shagging it around like that
if 60 50 60 early 70 range you're sitting pretty i think sub one sub one dollar for a product like
this is a dip oh it's a steal it'll be ten dollars it'll be $10 in a year and a half, two years.
If not more, it could be $30, because 90% of the competition will be dead.
I think only Hyperliquid will be around.
Leiter's already almost non-existent.
All of the VCs, all of the guys that were the main holders started selling on them.
the vcs all of the guys that were the main holders started selling on them
i think we forget like how big it is and how big binance and ccr in asia
you know what i mean asia is not at war right now. Asia is not struggling with, you know, they have more like, dude, the middle class in Asia.
There's more homeowners in the middle class.
That's where the money is going to come from until the boomers believe in Bitcoin in the United States.
So the best thing about that, the privacy thing is it actually takes away from the expert traders,
like the links of the world and the McBobos of the world that can really read a blockchain
and take full advantage of the noobs that can't that's gonna be like i remember what like the
way i look at it is like whenever halo was really taken off um it got to be attracted so many users
right so many people play in halo but but then the level of expertise started climbing
so high and high and high and high.
It got to be a point where it didn't bring on anyone new
because the experts were just dominating so hard.
And then you have like a very even-keeled game come along,
like a Call of Duty or you have to start the edge over.
And then something even-keeled came along was Fortnite.
And that's what brings on more people. When they don't have to be, when over and then something even even keel came along was fortnite and that's what brings on more people when they don't have to be when there's that learning edge you can't
just have that advantage and they're stripping that away by going private no one can go and
be an expert and like oh look at that boom boom boom now all the noobs uh it's been nullified it's
it's really the on chain and out like the more you can noob it down the more users will come and trade on the way the way i look at it's like it's skill-chain and out, like the more you can noob it down, the more users will come and
trade on-chain. The way I look at it, it's like it's skill-based matchmaking, right? Like
if you're looking at a chart with a certain lens, you're looking at it like a predator,
you know exactly what to look at. And Dr. Rolex, very, very good trader. And he was open. He's
like, dude, I love to make my trades public. Then usually like to use the dark pools and like that's that's that's a way for these very skillful traders
to be pushing the volume but like you said i mean the privacy gives people the ability to really
really trade um and hide from being hunted and learn and just like i said it's like skill-based matchmaking i like it that's a good analogy
yeah we need the fortnight we need the fortnight i don't know i don't know if alex is rage baiting
me here but i am not this predatory traitor that you make me out to be i just wait for things and
people to complain enough that something is dead.
And when enough people start saying something is dead, usually a good floor in.
Like you said about Bitcoin, when people stop selling is when we'll start going up.
Just wait for the cell pressure to wear off on anything.
So I don't think you need to track people to kind of see it.
Well, you can't track that.
Hey, Link, you can't track that anymore.
Your advantage of knowing when cell pressure, you can't track it anymore.
Like just forget about tracking any data.
You know this.
You know this because you're an expert trader, Link.
You don't even know you're an expert trader.
But go tell that to someone who's never traded.
You're going to have an advantage over them. They don't know know you're an expert trader, but go tell that to someone who's never traded. You're going to have an advantage over them.
They don't know what you just said,
but now that all those trading advantages
of any type of blockchain analysis,
it's done.
It's going to invite everyone
because now you can literally click a button
and you're at the same advantage
as just about everyone else.
Can you read sentiment?
No longer you have to read the chain.
That's going to invite so many more people, in my opinion.
So let's assume none of these aggregators exist.
So like Photon, GMGN.
So they won't be able to tell you exactly buy-sell token transactions.
They won't tell you anything about that, right?
They'll just have the token, the chart.
You won't see any buys
or sells or you won't have any of the data
at your fingertips
does that mean that it's going to be
narrative only
I don't know how else you're going to
track stuff. If there's nothing
to track on chain
I don't even know how you're going to track it
I'm so curious to see how know how you're going to track it.
I'm so curious to see how a meme coin is going to work
or an NFT is going to work. You won't know
what wallet holds a meme coin.
Are you going to be able to track the market cap
of the meme coin? I have no idea
what to expect.
Do you know what they might do? They might not
allow aggregators
to pull their data, so you may have to trade
on their layer one. might they might because you said the team internally can see that data but public
and traders can't see it what if they keep it all in-house and make all that information on like a
trading um decks or something but you have to use theirs to see any remote info yeah they would
essentially be cutting out uh both five billion dollars
of trading aggregators like gmgm photon um that's actually a killer move axiom they'd be cutting
you're saying leave all the trading on the decks itself exactly not allow aggregators like photon
axiom padre not allow them to participate in the trading of these tokens.
Or if they...
Shit, twin, try and stop me.
Or if they trade, but the info will only be on the Aster
product. Because they only won't
access to it.
Why would you want to stop me
and my 20 wallets on BullX, huh?
What's wrong with me just
bastardizing a chart and farming a 6% moon bag once it hits 180 mil?
What's the problem with that?
Because we want to get rich too.
Oh yeah, I can't think of one, Hazadi.
Listen, I'm a great guy to have in the chart.
I'm max extract at the top.
I'm not denting that motherfucker.
I understand volume.
I have no idea.
The problem is giving all those tokens to people
who put red lines on the chart.
Those are the sons of bitches that need to be fucking like,
when you dent a chart, bro,
you should be like publicly spanked.
You know what I'm saying?
It should be live streamed.
It should be a fucking special 8 p.m.
You know? And I just want to should be live streamed. It should be a fucking special 8pm. You know?
And I just want to see their cheeks turn red.
Did any of you perpetrators
catch that fart coin bottom?
No, we're not.
I don't know if anyone...
What was the bottom for it?
The whole timeline said fart coin is officially dead... What was the bottom for it? The whole timeline said
Fartcoin is officially dead.
That was the bottom.
It's at 215 now.
Well, sorry, no, it got lower.
It got down to...
What the fuck is this? Yeah, it got lower. It got down to... What the fuck is this?
Yeah, 135-ish.
That's wild.
Just another example of how perpetrators move charts i had fart coin on my tool as soon as it was a a loser so you would have caught that if you
would have used it stock chain tweeted like three days ago when fresh wallets put in like 200k into it at the bottom
working like a good short this was just using aster's information from their api stuff this
morning like it was it just flagged it as a big uh as it as a mover in the opposite
direction.
I wanted a short
part coin so bad at a billion,
but it was just like
it was too retarded.
This is such a dumb coin
to be at a billion, and they could just send it to
two billion.
They could just do whatever they want with it what's goat at 20 mil didn't goat launch fart coin how does that even happen how does the gen 2 flip the gen 1.
made no that makes no sense to me at all that you guys value the gen 2 more than the gen 1.
the gen 2 more than the gen 1
I've never seen that in crypto
man there were so many coins
that the truth terminal
there was this gorilla
do you remember the name of it
I forget the gorilla's name
but truth terminal kept hinting that he was, that gorilla was going to be the leader of the chain.
And then one day Truth Terminal tweeted that it had to kill the gorilla and bring it down to the depths with it.
And that's when all these other fucking coins started sending.
I think Truth Terminal terminal was compromised i think it
was a dude crazy crazy time just had coins going from 10 mil to 300 mil in a day are you talking about Ishmael I remember that one but no that
wasn't the let me see if I could find it this is a long time ago now I'm going to go ahead and get the other side. so y'all can tell me if you think this is a good idea like i'm making a bot right now
that'll kind of trade on jupe and then bridge it to aster automatically for you into the native b and b tokens and then
fucking run the trade bot on aster for a while so like kind of like a liquidity from one to the other I like it
yeah I got most of this
finished already
I got the astrocyte done
but there's some sand tech shit I'm fixing
what are we thinking, books?
Books, you sleeping?
I'm thinking we got royally shafted, G.
Bro, why do you think this?
Bro, it's obvious.
No, it's obvious. No, it's not.
I think we got tons of clout off of it.
Like now we have like the ability to just launch something if we wanted and we'll get a lot of positive feedback.
Are you hung up on the ambassador stuff?
No, hell no.
I just think we got to build something out.
Yeah, I think we build something out.
We're going to get like super,
unfortunately,
and people aren't going to like,
we're going to get super favoritism.
But we got to build something, books.
It's not what the blockchain can do for me.
It's about what can I do for the blockchain.
DM, you on your computer?
No, no, no.
I'm on the test court.
You can check it out on your phone,
but you can't run a bot from your phone.
But if you want to check it out.
Yeah, yeah.
Shoot it over.
I'll check it out, dude.
It's in your DM.
Cool, man. Thank you. Yeah, yeah. Shoot it over. I'll check it out, dude. It's in your DM. Cool, man.
What is Jake Gaines' connection to Esther?
Jake Gaines?
He was showing it early days with us.
What did he put out?
He put out a tweet?
Yeah, I've noticed him getting louder about it the past week.
He was with us early days
showing it. We got some big KOLs
with us showing it. A lot of people
just quit, man.
Shit gets hard.
I thought Spoddy was like
the aster. Not downhill
only. Not wind at your back.
You know, things get hard.
You know, people need to take time off yeah
where's like where's spotty i forgot about spotty dude i forgot i totally forgot about spotty spotty
wi-fi the dj yep what's spotty doing rapper is he huh oh rapper rapper what's spotty up to
i don't know is he even't know. Is he even pushing?
Is he pushing it still?
I haven't seen him in a minute.
Yeah, dude.
I haven't seen him in a minute.
Why would you go down the line on that?
Kozy, what do you think of Aster Dex?
The new L1 that launched.
Bro, I can't give you my honest opinion on it.
Are you paying?
Why can't you give an honest opinion?
My opinion is it didn't live up to what I thought.
That's why I don't want to talk about it.
Yazan, what do you think of the new Aster L1 that launched?
It's just a DEX chain, bro.
Like, you can't do anything on it.
You can't talk about it much.
Brian, what do you think of the new Aster chain that launched?
Unfortunately, it didn't live up to expectations.
Oh, these guys are going to get behind another deck.
This is funny.
This is how this game works.
Stick to the script.
I mean, Alex, I just asked most of the liquidity in the space right now that's left.
most of the liquidity in the space right now that's left.
I think you just guys got to give it more time.
I've got this now recorded.
I'll remember this when we were, I'll remember it.
I got this on recording.
Like if you're not bullish on aster what what is what is on chain right now that you're kind of looking at and you're like well that's bullish i have a feeling we'll find out soon
yeah i mean i mean seriously when it comes to crypto what's more bullish than aster right now
if you guys got a valid case or thesis, I'm all ears.
But I don't think there is anything with better speculation than Acer.
You've got CZ.
He's not shying away from it.
You know, he's like putting his foot on the ground.
Hey, this launched today.
I like it.
You know, he quote tweeted it twice.
Not once, but twice.
He didn't just vanish.
And you got the Binance speculation.
We haven't even let it play out at all.
The only thing I wish they would have done differently
is had an application, right?
Like, I feel like we got the layer one.
It's like, well, there's nothing really to do yet.
So we just got to be more patient.
Tomorrow will be a big day, though, for sure,
with the the partnerships
man when we were going downhill wind at our backs everyone was bullets we didn't
have a chain now we got a chain do you hilarious do you remember it's funny
you remember when soul went to from5 to $0.90?
I was not here for that.
You were there for that?
Yeah, I was here for it.
You should be a bajillionaire.
I'm not a big X guy.
No, obviously I'm not. I fucking full clipped when it hit $12.
What was it?
What was it whenever?
What made it go to $0.90?
The bear market. Okay. What was it? What was it whenever? What made it go to 90 cents?
The bear market.
But again, like these products.
I wish I had sold salon at 90 cents.
I don't know how you find something.
Again, these products need to continually evolve as the years go on to survive.
I think a product like Aster does have the interest.
It has the interest and it's already showing it can evolve with or without the support, right? You know, I think it has like, like I said,
I'm not betting on the United States or KOLs from, you know, the States.
Like my money's in Southeast Asia.
My money's in the Asian markets.
I'm betting on those guys because I think that, like I said,
the middle class out there is very successful.
And I think there's a lot of people that are going to be taking a lot of risk
and investing into, you know,
familiar products adjacent to Binance.
And, you know, a lot of,
I think a lot of FUD in the space
stems from personal reasons, right?
Like it's not about the product itself, right?
Like, and that's why you got to diversify
and like have cashflow outside of the space.
Expecting, and I don't know what it was like
in the NFT days or the meme coin days.
Like, I don't know what it was like to launch something
and how quick that was.
But like, I mean, I put money into a CVS pharmacy portfolio
in 2017, right?
I gave, you know, six figures in it.
You know, they were going to be building out 40
something CVS is across the United States, all legit. And dude, I mean, it took about three
years and now I'm getting a check every, every quarter. And, you know, it's, it's just one of
those things where I'm cool planting the flag, you know, educating people on the product. And I think
a lot of people want number one leverage. And I think number two, a lot of people want, number one, leverage. And I think
number two, a lot of people want, you know, a vested interest. And a lot of people deserve that
because, you know, they've been in this space a long time and all of that. But I'm just saying,
like, either we jump on the same boat or, you know, it's going to be back to kind of like a
more PVP environment. And I think right now, Hyperliquid and Aster are the only two things in this space to be
excited about.
And, you know, if there's, if I'm confident in Aster because it survived a bear market
and liquidity is raised, you know, that's why Aster can survive.
It already has, it already has the survive. It already has the backing.
It already has the cash flow.
You know, it could take hits for an entire year
and it could literally not clear money and still survive.
I mean, will it be reshaped and reconfigured?
Absolutely.
But at the end of the day,
this is something that's designed to weather the storm
and it's going to be around.
And I don't know, man, like the bear market is one of those places where, you know, I
think it's not a time to jump off the boat.
It's more so pick your winners, pick your horses and, you know, continue to be bullish.
And, you know, obviously have, have, don't end up in an echo chamber.
have have don't end up in an echo chamber you know the thing is is i don't feel like i need
to get peppered online in ct about the investment i've sat across from like super super successful
men hold them to buy it these guys were butt chipping in at around 90 70 60 they own they own
sports teams you know and these guys don't even care they threw
they threw a decent amount of chunk of change at it and they're just going to continue to do that
over the next few years and that was my advice and uh i haven't gotten one phone call from them
one phone call um and i think that's what astor. It's one of those things that you can buy, hold and forget about and just let Leonard
and CZ do their thing.
Um, but it is what it is, man, is what it is.
If cash is tight and, you know, you want a quick return, you know, obviously just buy
it when it's low and, you know, pay yourself out when it rips every now and then.
But the thing is, is they just gave you a clear schedule right in front of you about partnerships launches and
essentially they're saying hey this is how you time in and dca in
hold on i'm gonna play another tiebreaker just do another tiebreaker to like 11.
I'm going to play another tiebreaker.
Let's do another tiebreaker to like 11.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you win in tennis?
I mean, I could have a full-blown conversation with you.
Am I beating you right now?
You don't think I'm beating you?
What was the score?
Get over there.
A little shithead.
All right, here we go.
How are you a professional tennis player and losing to people?
No, he's...
It shouldn't even be close.
Here, listen to this.
It shouldn't even be close.
Alex, Alex, Alex, I didn't lose a point.
He's confused because he doesn't know if I'm talking to you or talking to him.
All right, let's play to...
We're going to play to seven right now.
I'm serving.
Okay, here we go
Did you win yeah Yeah, 1-0.
Did you just say FBI?
Yeah, it means first ball in.
It's what you do when you're in the glaring sun.
I never knew that.
Sounds suspicious.
FBI, it's called first ball in and when it's super sunny.
He made that up, guys.
He didn't know he was off mic.
He didn't know he was off mute.
He said, where do you work, FBI?
Bro, this guy is off fed.
This guy is a fed. This guy is a fed.
Means first ball in.
No one has ever said first ball in.
I'm grokking it right now.
Made up terms.
Made up terms.
Likely said by someone who's trying to cover up
as a federal bureaucracy investigator agent.
That's what it just said across.
What did you just call it?
That was crazy.
Alright, here we go. 2-1.
We had four federal agents on stage And three schizos the other night
Alright, 3-1
He scored on you?
I thought you were a professional tennis player
No, he's a professional pro
You can't score a point on professional.
Who are you playing against? Roger Federer?
He's getting recruited to BYU.
He's solid.
He's a professional
We get a Naster sponsorship on him?
Well, I mean, it just seems like
anyone can be
into the trickle-down sport,
and you can become a professional.
You guys got to think about who's playing tennis.
If you're in this heat, don't feed into it, FDM.
He's going to call you a trickle-down player.
He's going to say you're a glorified pickleball with a net player.
But he calls paddleball paddleball, finally. He's going to say you're a glorified pickleball with a net player? No. But I don't...
He calls paddleball, paddleball, finally.
The disrespect he had for Paddle to begin with.
You just called him Paddle?
You used to just call him Paddle.
I knew a girl...
I only said it because of the Europeans that taught me how to play.
That's how they called it.
Do they really?
It's like saying football and Yeah, it's like saying football
and saying football.
It's like that kind of exaggeration.
You know what I mean?
It was nothing to do.
It was not to disrespect
the paddle ball community.
No, no, no, no.
No, it wasn't.
I think paddle ball is sick.
Oh, no, he doesn't.
No, he doesn't.
I can hear him smirking
as he says that.
I think paddle ball is sick.
He's laughing his ass off right now.
Like you hear these. I like it. says that. I think paddle ball is sick. He's laughing his ass off right now.
I wish we had more paddle courts here.
He is bullshitting. I'm a 5-1, by the way.
What about Ashley?
Dude, I have these guys in my head right now.
All right, 5-2.
He gets all of his points from serving.
He's got a wicked serve. I certain bot i've got yeah i just
i hit serves that's what i do he gets it fast as fuck just yeah big big serve big forehand that's
it i'm not like those guys from south america they'll stand 40 feet behind the baseline and
just grind it's fun it's like it's just different it's like different weight classes and how do you manage
your strengths versus theirs it's fun what was the highest you climbed up the ladder in tennis
uh nationally nationally like 33 in the country internationally under when i was under 18 i got to 283 and then professionally doubles i was like
up to like 420 in the world doubles so you didn't carry no no no i leaned into doubles doubles i
love i fell in love with doubles man after college yeah yeah you couldn't make it on your own you're
like damn i'm gonna lean into this guy exactly exactly i knew that was coming
i love stm
bro can we can we talk about how we just lost the dubai squad to astro
no they're just pissed bro they these guys are pre-Madonna KOLs. You guys got to understand.
If they ain't got the wind behind their back, we're going downhill.
You know, they're getting fed caviar on a silver platter as they're doing all this.
I mean, they're complaining.
They're complaining.
That's all.
They wanted to see this Layer 1 launch and we 2X.
And because we went from $ cents to 79 cents i think we
did that 10 bump then it retraced down to 75 you know or 70 yeah 75 cents yeah i just don't know
what kind of returns we're expecting in a bear market my god any any any sort of movement what
also hurts is beautiful what also hurts is that hype is pumping.
That also stings.
But it's older.
It's older.
Yeah, but it don't matter.
But don't forget,
they have people that made a lot of money
because of that airdrop.
They never dealt with that bear.
This is like my number one thing.
I think they have a bunch of really wealthy hype traders
that, number one,
like don't forget hype.
There's the whale positions on hype to short hype.
Like right when the Aster chain launched,
you know that there's like those hyper whales that are trying to hurt the
It's hilarious.
There's a bunch of hype whales.
They got hype whales and they got CZ haters.
You got Coinbase and hype
trying to fuck it over.
I don't know much about that kid
Cooker, but dude, that kid Cooker
has only extracted.
That guy was at a dinner with CZ or Leonard
once. It's like,
they just chose the wrong guys.
They should have had you,
like Elja,
like those are the guys.
like I think,
I think they were just trying to like focus a little more internationally because you guys were already on it.
Like I get Books's frustration.
I don't know you's on at all.
But, you know, these are guys that just, you know,
they want to see a return on their investment.
But I just don't know what kind of ROI people are used to.
Everybody has a different temperature.
Dude, I'm willing.
I'm giving Aster three years.
I'm giving it three years.
And we'll see where it goes.
Did you say they made an announcement
and categorized the crypto assets
and certain tokens as commodities,
collectibles, and digital tools?
Yeah, I was looking for the literature.
I was looking for the literature on it.
SEC made an announcement.
When I went to it, I couldn't read it.
I could pin it to the top.
Yeah, give us the bullet points.
Who's going to jail and who's free?
Well, it's pretty good.
Digital, you know, NFTs.
All the returns, God.
You know, with Sol, ETH, BTC, and like 14 other assets.
I know, I picked it up because my buddy in here was talking shit in my ear.
I picked up the tempo. Usually I here was talking shit in my ear. I picked it up.
I picked up the tempo.
Usually I can just chill against you.
You don't hear me, G?
He doesn't mute his mic.
No, I'm muting it.
I'm muting it.
No, because he's playing a game right now.
And so I didn't know this because he was good under the age of 18.
Once he crossed that threshold and the competition really picked up, And so I didn't know this because he was good under the age of 18.
Once he crossed that threshold and the competition really picked up,
he started to fall in love with doubles, he said.
And what I heard.
I fell in love with sorority girls.
As a tennis player?
Yeah. So you got to think.
Single tennis players?
I think how trickled down that is.
Now, think.
How am I going to trickle down from singles?
I mean, how many times do I ever see?
You ever heard of a picture at SDM? He's just the type to likele down from singles? Doubles. I mean, how many times do I ever see? You ever heard of him?
I saw a picture at SDM.
He's just the type to like to run his fingers through his hair.
Run his fingers through his hair?
What does that mean?
He's just like a...
He's like the guy who just...
Remember they were beating the first day?
He just likes to run his fingers through his hair with a double tennis tournament.
He likes to sweat in front of other men and shit.
Just so he can like...
Is this Bashing the only optimistic person
left? No, we don't know.
I love SDM. Stop.
has never talked shit to anyone.
We're going to break them.
He did to me. He said
he thought I belong in a coloring book instead
He still remembers.
That one stuck, huh?
Yep, yep. I'll never forget it.
Well, that script I put it for you, man.
This place is so negative.
Even the most optimistic people... I've seen it.
Some of the most optimistic people in the world get their mentals cracked here,
and they just can't take it anymore, and they crash out.'m curious to see like how sdm is going to handle it i don't know i don't know how long you've been doing oh yeah nikki you're not optimistic
you don't got an optimistic bone in your body i'm dead inside i'm neutral i crashed out already
a year ago i'm good it's out of my system digital commodities are not securities crypto assets that
are intrinsic intrinsically linked to it to and derive their value from the programmatic operation
of a crypto system that is functional as well as supply and demand dynamics then you got nfts
not securities digital tools not securities crypto assets that perform a
practical function such as membership ticket credential title instrument and identity badge
not securities that's pretty good you see what that that's an ai agent
yeah stable coins not securities digital securities or tokenized securities financial instruments enumerated in the definition of security that is formatted as a representative by a crypto asset where the record of ownership is maintained in whole or in part on the one or more crypto networks.
Whatever that means.
It's a pretty good update though
what was the update never mind i just read all that
here we're gonna this is this like a tutoring class so pinned it to the top g pinned it to the top
i think they're about to announce this uh clarity act that's
this is like the beginning of the rollout for that oh let's go the markets are pumping i'm about
what are you doing right now sdm are you done with astor are you still leverage trading that
oh i'm all dude i'm for astro i'm gonna wait for just a little dip and jump in because i think this thing's gonna rip to
80 and 90 over the next two weeks i got a feeling it's not if if they release like the clarity act we might not see a dip that's what i'm worried about right it's one of those things where it's
like like i closed out a position yesterday that if i would have left it in i'd be up a tesla model
y you know you just got to kind of manage those things in your head yeah i closed my position out
right where it's at right now earlier but it's better to like i said just like
learn to take profit like that's so important yeah yep yep i agree you know it's better to take profit than round trip.
What are the 14 other assets, though?
I don't see.
I got to find that list.
U.S. SEC says most important crypto assets are not securities. Staking, airdrops, BTC mining.
BTC mining is a big deal.
Stablecoins, NFTs,
digital commodities, collectibles,
tools, and tokenized securities.
Yeah, we're about to fucking cook.
This might
pop the bubble, the bear bubble.
Did you guys watch the interview
and the announcement with Paul Atkins?
He's the one who made these announcements
like a half hour ago
at the Blockchain Summit.
Let me see if I can find it.
I'll pin it to the top. Wait, SVM, you think the Dubai KOLs are now working for it?
Do you know that, Alex?
Binance is in D.C.?
Wait, what'd you say?
What'd you say, Alex?
You think the Dubai boys,
Dubai KOLs are now
working for another Dex?
Because they won't talk about Aster?
Yeah, 100%.
Dude, I love them all.
Everything is fine in Dubai.
Everything is safe.
Dude, I feel like
Boaz is playing 4D chess at all times times i'm trying to figure the guy out but like
genuinely he did he has opportunities in dubai right they're not going to be they're not going
to be pushing something out like they have an opportunity in dubai and i support what
whatever book says i'm doing i'm going to support the shit out of him i just don't want it to be
something that is a competitor if it's a competitor fuck may the best man win kind of thing right
but i think uh i think for somebody to launch another dex i mean a little late yeah good luck
good luck have fun kind of thing being a dude having a text, that's like, it's not a joke.
There's going to be so much incentives besides airdrops.
Like, I'm farming.
I'm farming NATO.
I got the invitation to farm NATO.
That's the crack index.
I'm literally just going to do what the hype guys do.
I'm just going to farm a massive airdrop and sell NATO
and buy more ash here.
