Friday night music 🎶 question:

What’s an album you literally can’t believe isn’t on everyone’s all time great list?
Examples:

“The Kinks Are The Village Green Preservation Society” The Kinks

“Paris 1919” John Cale

“The Gilded Palace of Sin” Flying Burrito Brothers

“Supreme Clientele” Ghostface Killah

Hatebreed “Satisfaction is the Death of Desire”
Also Saves The Day “ Through Being Cool”
More: “A Grand Don’t Come For Free” OR “Original Pirate Radio” - The Streets
Also FWIW our 12 week old baby girl loves Cardi B more than any artist...followed by Coco songs...followed by original ‘89 Beauty and the Beast
Tagging @AdamSinger because I feel he can change our life’s with the prompt in this post

$100m for VC mining vs. $5k for core development.

A short thread on Grin, incentives, and the state of the crypto commons. /1

👇

2/ Last night, Ignotus Peverell, pseudonymous dev who launched @GrinMW shared his frustration w industry around Grin. "Grin will profit infinitely more from the contributions of a great developer..than from any single additional miner, exchange or fund." grin-forum.org/t/early-disapp…
3/ Specifically in question was the disparity between VC-backed mining, which @wheatpond estimated at $100m+, and the crowd funding campaign for @yeastplume, which stood at ~$5k before the announcement and is a bit over $20k now theblockcrypto.com/tiny/grin-lead…

Quick hits list of crypto M&A

@Felipether rightly points out that there hasn't been much involving tokens...

...but at least some bubbling around the idea of hostile chain takeovers/more activist strategies. Some links below 👇
In this piece from last year, @andy_bromberg wrote a theoretical multistep plan for how a crypto hostile takeover could be executed medium.com/@andy_bromberg…
A couple weeks ago, @danprimack wrote about a plan to put something similar into action around XRP

+raise $$$ to short the price down
+fork
+force capital flight

Moving from theoretical to something with more intention.. axios.com/newsletters/ax…

Long Reads Sunday #31.

You know, at first this week seemed boring. Then tokenized donuts took over a community, Messari went to war, Venezuela’s oppo leader was recognized by the US, and everyone on CT started yelling about "crypto law."

☕☕☕ It's LRS time! 👇
2/ It’s Sunday morning, so let’s talk donuts🍩Long story short, it was an accidental experiment in tokenized online reputation, that ended up showing off DEXes, deploying a Harberger Tax and highlighting some challenges with holdings-based governance
3/ @brian_armstrong even chimed in, so I think we can safely assume $DONUT is coming to @Coinbase.

In all seriousness though, I think Brian connecting the dots between Donuts and a larger shift in attention economies is right on.

#GilletJaunes protesters kicking a riot police officer today in #Paris. Police are firing rubber bullets. Protesters are throwing rocks. Looks messy.
Footage of what is believed to be a police sniper on the roof of the #ChampsElysees in #Paris a few hours ago.
Looks like some pretty big fires were set also.

I love this album so much
Last one from this amazing album. My favorite song ever (the original with Diana). If you are not a product of the 80’s and have never seen Endless Love with Brooke Shields, I’m sorry. That movie...

I wrote this yesterday morning and was stunned and sad to see Cyrille had died. His greatness is assured. He deserves every plaudit. Regis, Cunningham and Batson were game changers. But I've found myself thinking about Clyde Best
Clyde arrived at West Ham in 1968, the same year as Enoch Powell's 'rivers of blood' speech. He was the only - as far as I could see - visible black player in the league until Regis's emergence nine years later
I remember getting his autograph at Lime Street one Friday night in, maybe, 1972? When I met him, he didn't believe me. He laughed at my earnest attempts to convince him.
