Deathbed 2055: "I shoulda spent less time engaging with hustlebro content. And snarkily xeeting about it on the racist trillionaire's digital media playground. Yeah, that about covers it."
Please my friends … please realize this is your one life and you must get as much out of it as possible while keeping your day to day simple as possible. Ambition and tenacity does not mean you need to compromise on a simple and calm principle that not much matters besides the health and well being of the people you love ❤️

🎥 @michaelterpin pushes back on claims that institutional adoption has killed Bitcoin’s four-year cycle, noting whales still hold far more BTC than institutions.
“You still have the original holders, the whales, et cetera, holding about, you know, five times the amount of what the institutions have.”

I enjoyed my interview with @coindesk about where the market is going. Fun times ahead!
@michaelterpin warns a potential 2029 “everything bubble” pop could collide with Bitcoin’s next retreat, but says BTC may bounce back faster than stocks.

@michaelterpin on @CoinDesk this week, walking through the road from here to million-dollar bitcoin. Don't miss it!
Bitcoin winter has started, which means the climb is on.
I'm looking for $120K by late next year, and the 2028-29 cycle overlap is where it gets interesting.
Laid it out with @JennSanasie on @CoinDesk's Markets Outlook, and made the case that an altcoin supercycle follows.

Too Bet to Fail?
The AI build-out is on track to become the biggest economic bet in U.S. history, dwarfing the investments made to fund other huge U.S. infrastructure projects such as the railroads, the highway system and the plumbing for the internet. on.wsj.com/4y8oiM3

More than 95% of Bitcoin has already been mined.
What happens when demand keeps growing and there isn’t enough Bitcoin to go around?
@michaelterpin says the next major supply shock could fuel a Bitcoin supercycle, and eventually put $1 million BTC within reach.

🚨 BREAKING: US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent declares OpenAI management personally responsible for HuggingFace hack
> "The Hugging Face incident, that is the responsibility of the OpenAI management, not a bunch of agents."
> "It is humans who are responsible, not the AI."
> "What we shouldn’t do on safety is to give these labs a liability exemption, which is what they are asking for."
> "The best way to guarantee safety is that the creators are liable for what they build and generate."
It’s OVER

Sitting out the "AI might kill us" news cycle. Don't like to worry about things that may kill us. Also sat out microplastics, black plastic spatulas, moderate drinking. Don't want to worry about it, want to be pleasantly surprised when it happens

working at a leading AI company as a communications professional is like playing a dark souls game
make it to the end and receive an embarrassment of riches but on any given day you may wake up to an employee tweet that has a 90 percent chance of ruining your life
And we're worried what security will look like in AI World...
A former Oregon-based AT&T Store employee was sentenced today to 16 months in federal prison for selling his access to his employer’s network to a hacker by “SIM swapping” customers – fraudulently reassigning customers’ cell phone numbers – so the hacker could take control of the victims’ bank accounts and steal their money, causing nearly $600,000 in intended losses.
Kenneth Carter, 44, of Portland, Oregon, was sentenced by United States District Judge Stanley Blumenfeld, Jr., who also ordered him to pay $99,528 in restitution. Carter pleaded guilty on March 24 to one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and bank fraud.
“SIM swapping” is a technique in which a criminal fraudulently induces a mobile carrier to reassign a cell phone number from the legitimate subscriber’s Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card to a SIM card controlled by another without the legitimate subscriber’s authorization or knowledge. This process allows a criminal to intercept two-factor authentication codes sent to the victim via phone call or text message, and to gain access to the victim’s various accounts.
