gm, June 21st is the 3rd anniversary of the Heni Discord, or what I renamed to the "Dots Discord". It's been a really great trip so far and I'm both proud and happy as a hooker with new shoes about it. So how did
gm, I just minted this Prohibition Art NFT on the base network. Prohibition: Open Generative Art NFT Platform | Prohibition.artProhibition is an open, onchain generative art NFT platform built on Art Blocks Engine and deployed on Arbitrum, an Ethereum Layer 2. Explore and create generative art NFTs with us.Prohibition:
Howdy, smh at today's layoffs announcement from Yuga Labs co-founder Greg Solano. Yuga Labs is what Bored Apes Yacht Club (BAYC) became right about the time they took in VC money. Here's a great piece published yesterday about BAYC co-founder Wylie Aronow, forever known as Gordon
gm, I don't have numbers to support the influence that NFTs have had on art. But I know it's real. Because it happened to us. All because of NFTs, we bought art. Which means we're making micro investments in small businesses everywhere. It'
gm, Renee and I are getting turned onto so much art all because of NFTs. We're essentially making micro investments in creators. It's such a buzz. Just recently @traf made based punks. We scored one. They originally sold for $.007. Some who didn't get
Watch Amazing Spider-Man artist and toys impresario Todd MacFarlane explain digital collectibles like none other I've seen. The juice starts at 4:00 in. Todd nails it. Pictures of our experiences, friends, or kids on our phone are the greatest thing since sliced bread. But pictures (NFTs) of
gm, Would NFTs be “dead” if everyone made bank? No, of course not. Peeps would be signing their praises. But most didn’t make bank and now they’re salty — “NFTs are dead, they were a scam”. So for them, it was never about the art or the tech. It
3 March 2024: Crypto industry spokesperson Bennie Brainwashed said this, when asked about the Flour Massacre, "This was an efficiency problem. Had the Palestinians used the blockchain and crypto to get their food, everything would have been cool. Because the blockchain and crypto are all about efficiency, peace, and
gm, After seeing ETH Denver and thinking about the state of things, I'm formally declaring that I'm no longer in crypto for the betterment of the world. ETHDenver 2024 #BUIDLathon + Community Innovation Festival That all I'm here for is the money. Because crypto isn&
gm, I think there's way too much talk on Farcaster about making it the winner. Or it being the winner. It's counter to decentralization. The digerati has to come face to face with the fact that tech has been largely responsible for the dystopia we'
gm, One thing I dig about Farcaster is how easy it is to mint NFTs. This is because of their implementation of frames. Frames aren't new, the first web pages relied on frames. But what Farcaster is doing with frames, is new – in so far as crypto goes.
I first met Ondi Timoner at the Denver Premier of We Live In Public circa 2009. Which IMO is by far and away, the best flick about the early Internet days. Ondi's new film that premiered on Netflix on 1.1.24 is "The New Americans: Gaming
I agree entirely with the author of this piece. There's an old saying in marketing. It goes like this: "You can change someone's behavior, but not their thinking". In other words you can me to buy another brand of toilet paper. But you'
I watched Bitconned. The story the movie tells is still going strong - in crypto and to some degree the art world. Crypto goes down on Twitter and Discord (chat rooms). My guess is that 99% of the NFT projects right now on Twitter and Discord are nothing more than
My TokenFrame (crypto frame) is great. Because my crypto art (NFTs) is on my wall, where I want it. Having crypto art on my phone or computer is okay, I guess. But it's not useful. For me, I want to enjoy my art when I'm kicking
$SOL (Solana token) is all the buzz on crypto twitter right now. It's up 110% in the past 2 months. Right now Ethereum's (ETH) two big problems are throughput and high transaction fees. Solana's big pitch is cheap transaction fees. But Ethereum has a
Many thanks to Heni for making this film available for free. Here's my not-so-hot take on it. I've been a tech entrepreneur since '89. I've been in crypto all day every day since 2.22.20. I've spent way too much
Two weeks ago Heni Discord user Pedro accused me of scamming him and others. He posted slanderous comments about me in the Discord. I asked a Heni moderator ("mod(s)") to step in, they refused to. So I stopped posting there. Pedro lied about me in front of
Living in the past is living in hell. I have so much I need to let go of. Stuff that didn't happen, happened, and what I imagine happened or didn't happen. It's killing me. And I want to live for many more years. When
Back in 2021 my friend J. Harry Edmiston turned me onto Micha Klein's forthcoming NFT project, Crypto-Pills. I had never heard of Micha before so I took a look. The first thing that caught my eye was Micha's hook statement "Virtual medicine for a sick
gm, Back in June '021 I tweeted that crypto Twitter was praising El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele for buying Bitcoin, while ignoring the fact that he's a brutal dictator. @BitcoinMagazine has a new low. Now they're not only ignoring the fact that Nayib
I'm old school about taxes. Meaning, I happily pay them. On time. And I don't cheat. I pay them before I eat. Because I don't want to do anything to change my luck. But it wasn't always this way. I learned the
More notes on the TokenFrame -- The TokenFrame came securely packaged. I didn't make any notes. But I do recall thinking they could have put a little more padding in. But overall, the packaging was good. Their setup interface is a little clunky if you have your NFTs

Howdy! It's tax day. I know, we pay too much taxes. I know, most of the tax monies we pay are wasted. I'm a Gore Vidal Liberal. The only thing I agree with Republicans on is taxes - we should pay less. But that doesn'
Little bit of a misunderstanding yesterday with this. Turns out after DMing Robin Schmidt [https://twitter.com/IamSuperMassive] it was user error - Robin just didn't see the comment. I didn't have to talk him into anything, it's their policy to post disagreement. Robin
What first drew me to crypto was what Satoshi wrote in the now seminal Bitcoin White Paper - Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System. I saw that crypto could change the system. I saw the possibility to create real change for those with the least. Because if we’re going
I've been a tech entrepreneur for 32 years now. I've been in the same business for 32 years. I started my 2nd company in 2002. Knock on wood (my head), we're at the doorstep of another great app. Campfires are a great metaphor for
Gerald ("Gerry") Armstrong is a legendary gadfly. Some say he wrote the book - although Gerry would scoff at the thought. He was also a mentor. Gerry was the former CEO of the Rocky Mountain Fuel Company in Denver. The New York Times first wrote about him [https:
There's an age old saying in marketing that's been true for a hundred years, it'll never not be true. Which is, you can change someone's behavior but you can't change their beliefs.
Bookmark The Defiant Manifesto. It might be the best "who we we are, what we do, what we're gonna do" statement I've ever read.
Really great news from Bitcoin Miami today. Crypto is one the greatest inventions of my lifetime. It'll not only change how we think of money. It's going to be the catalyst that advances renewable energy to the mainstream. Hooray for crypto!

Circa ’97 taxi drivers were handing out stock tips. VC’s were throwing money at worthless companies with apps nobody really needed. These apps didn’t solve a burning problem, they weren’t even a pretty good. Most didn’t have working code.
I wrote a version of this what seems like eons ago, because that’s how fast things move in crypto. I’ve met some good people in this space. But I’ve seen a side of this that’s unsavory - influencers who’re really just paid carnival barkers. Downright deceitful stuff. More on this coming.
