Whose Threads Are a Must-Read?
Now that your rate limit has been topped up, let’s get to this week’s “useful info” bit.
Crab markets are the time when you accumulate knowledge that you monetize for cold hard computer coins in bull markets. No better way of doing that than by following creators that provide you with analysis of markets you can’t follow yourself.
Wisdom of the Week
Have doomers ever considering taking in the wisdom from someone that’s been around for long enough:
You don’t want to be underexposed to this scenario. Let that sink in.
Who Is Arguing In Way Too Public A Place?
Time for some drama baby!
Crypto Twitter needs to eat, crab market market or not. And with prices crabbing around $30K, the market isn’t really giving much juice to squeeze.
But you know who can always be squeezed?
An influenza’s followers!
Yes, a wolf needs to eat. Sometimes even his own followers:
That shocking plot twist took Crypto Twitter by surprise and not everyone liked it:
But unlike other influenza, Hsaka was cut some slack in the community for this out-of-character move:
The sudden push of Gainzy into a supporting cast role was unexpected but well worth the laughs:

Edward Snowden doesn’t like this at all:
Dylan LeClair thinks there is more to it than Elon admits:
ZachXBT clearly has to touch some grass and stop scrolling the feed:
The Elon parody account thinks this is a brilliant idea to counter the “loneliness epidemic:”
That’s all we could scroll before the rate limit ran out! Luckily, Elon already raised it to 1K and 10K for blue ticks, so we may be back at business as usual by the next round-up.
Steady lads, former Twitter CEO deploying more shitposts:
Talk of the Town
And yes, in between all of that gossiping and cockfighting, crypto happened as well. Kinda.
Then there was talks about a stablecoin not fully backed and losing its fiat rails:
On the Coinbase vs SEC front, more good news for Coinbase. The SEC’s case is getting flimsier by the week. Remember bulltrapper’s wisdom of the week? You do not want to be underexposed:
- Azuki, a “blue chip" NFT collection, revealed a new collection called “Elementals.”
- The Azuki executives did not go to great creative lengths to distinguish the new batch from the old.
- The result: both batches look virtually identical and the genesis collection are now worth somewhat less.
A community call was frantically called to minimize the damage and make sure the golden goose isn’t prematurely slaughtered. The results:
A more serious item on the list was almost all institutions re-filing the spot ETF applications last Friday after the SEC demanded some clarifications. Not the mighty BlackRock though:
And while some on Crypto Twitter been busy with shilling ref links, others have turned to real-world assets in the last 12 months. A progress report:
Memes
The memes this week did not disappoint.
Re-staking the rest of out rate limit for next week. See you then!
