The story behind how 'Jason from Telegram' tried to explain his investment thesis to @CryptoCobain about his Pixeldick NFTs on @UpOnlyT is easily one of the funniest things I've seen this year😂.
Interestingly enough, I am now reading one of the articles that Jason sent @CryptoCobain about why men draw dicks on everything: vice.com/en/article/53n…
And see, this is the problem of Freudian psychology:
"So, essentially, the people who are drawing penises over and over again are trying to assert that they have the power. That they have the phallus and do not lack."
Overinterpretation. Jeez, can't a man draw dicks for fun?
Now this is gold:
"Michael Yardley, a 33-year-old Florida-based designer and prolific penis portrait artist, told me that he simply just likes drawing them."
"He wrote to me in email, adding that he would never stop drawing dicks unless it would 'cure cancer.' "
The article has a nice ending:
"But maybe the best explanation is that there is no explanation for the spontaneous passion men feel for dick drawing. The very essence of life, after all, is a mystery."
Interesting indeed... Now back to crypto xD.

Ok so I feel like I need to make a quick post on @roguesocietynft.
Rogue Society is not just a simple pfp project, they're going in a similar direction as @pixelvault_ & @punkscomic. SIMILAR, not same.
What do I like about the project?
- The art
- Presale
- The planned utility

THE ART (set of 15'777):
Disclosure: I got into the presale as an early adopter and yes I am currently passionately shilling my bags, thank you for asking.
Look at this special edition piece. Personally, I fkin love the art.
1/9 Watched a video on @staratlas with @at_mwagner and had to share this transcript. I think that this mindset so so infinitely important for a blockchain-gaming project to be able to succeed long term.
Important factors:
- iteration
- openness & vision of decentralization
2/9 I'll post the quotes first and my thoughts thereafter.
3/9 This is a product though that isn't ever intended to be complete. That might sound crazy - where we're starting though is releasing these iterative models. So over time we're just releasing features, we're not making you wait 7 years.
1/12
So I promised to provide additional information on some thoughts I had about the future decentralization of @staratlas and information that I gathered from interviews with @at_mwagner on YouTube.
Sry for the missing '/12's sometimes. Had no space left - hurts my eyes too.
2/12
POLIS will govern decision making and make it possible realized cashflows from ingame economic activity.
Outside of the game, “the POLIS token gives people voting rights externally for the future development decision making of @Staratlas as an entity”.
3/ But in the end, there currently is one company behind this. I assume that with the hype around this project they will be able to pull a good amount of money in with the sale of in-game NFT assets and at the same time hopefully create an amazing experience for players as well.
1/20 @StarAtlas is a play to earn game built on the @Solana blockchain. Scope of this project is around 5 years until the full unreal engine 5 version is released, but there are many steps until we actually reach that point.
Here’s a thread based on the research I conducted. 🧵
2/20
I’m very excited about this game. I’m a sucker for space exploration, crypto & NFTs, so this is 100% down my alley.
Table of contents:
-Presale and early access
-Four elements of the game
-Release phases
-Tokenomics
-In-game collaboration
-Future decentralization
1/3 Quick thought on why CBDCs (central bank digital currencies might be a good thing. Spoiler: wallets get more mindspace.
First of all, I'd assess the quality of CBDCs in whatever country by the following continuums (I hate black or white, there are always different shadings):
2/3 - Privacy VS governmental control
- Does a state want to 'ban cash'?
- Decentralization
- Openness of access to being able to validate transactions with state-independant nodes
- Is the country pro crypto?
Am I missing anything here?
3/3
CBDCs are coming in the next 5-10 years and will make having digital wallets seem even more normal than today. At least semi-bullish for crypto understanding! Will make the transotion to crypto-native stuff so much easier for the 'normies'.
