WSB is *finally* allowing crypto discussion on its subreddit. I have legit been waiting for this moment for years. This makes me so hugely bullish you have no idea.

People who say Ethereum is hard to use. Have you ever used a state gov website to setup an LLC or pay withholdings taxes? I can register an Ethereum DAO in a few simple transactions. But gov registry websites look like they haven't been updated since 2001...barely usable.

🏦 NYSE: 2800 trading pairs in 228 years 🦄 Uniswap v2: 36000 trading pairs in 1 year but hey they made some NFTs 🚀

NYSE 🏛 @NYSE

1/6: It’s a major milestone when a company lists on the NYSE and begins trading for the first time. Today, we’re celebrating that moment by launching NYSE First Trade NFTs. https://t.co/jyZjzESP7P Why are we doing this? 🧵👇

"All of this has happened before and all of this will happen again." Make your peace (or even invest) with the fact that #Ethereum Killers will pump in the part of the cycle where apps outspeed infrastructure. As long as infra progress is made on $ETH, you know the future.
