Some recent tweets from the founder and CEO of a prominent cryptocurrency company.


Tweet by Ryan Selkis: "Anyone that votes against Trump at this point can die in a fucking fire. Literal war."
Tweet by Ryan Selkis: "The Civil War for the country started today, and if you are anti-Trump you are against the men who are willing to fight. Good luck."
Tweet by Ryan Selkis: "Bolshevism cannot be cured with votes. We must excise the metastatic cancer and evil of the left, by force if necessary. This is why the second amendment was and is so important. Do not initiate violence, but if it’s brought to your door, finish with violence."
Tweet by Ryan Selkis: "I hate leftists with the fire of 1000 suns. I’m not a Republican. I’m built different. War."
Then there was this exchange. Messari’s Head of Engineering is on an H1-B, by the way.


Tweet exchange between Ryan Selkis and AdrianoFeria.eth: Selkis: "Are you a citizen or just a green card holder?" Feria: "I've been a green card holder for more than a decade and am about to initiate the process of becoming a citizen. What practical difference does that make in the context of this conversation?" Selkis: "I hope we send you back. That’s why I was asking. Sorry."
Tweet exchange between Ryan Selkis and AdrianoFeria.eth: Feria: "Under what premise would you "send me back"? I pay all my taxes, respect the law and, as a permanent resident, I am protected by constitutional rights. You probably didn't know about that last part and it might be a tough pill for you to swallow... here is the irony of you leaning about America from someone you deem to be undeserving of living here. You should take a break from social media and politics, it seems like you've gotten the brain virus too." Selkis: "You are protected by constitutional righ...
Tweet exchange between Ryan Selkis and AdrianoFeria.eth: Feria: "I qualify for citizenship, and your disdain won't stop me from getting it." Selkis: "that's fine, at least you won't have it in time for this election. good luck!"

Tweet by Ryan Selkis: "Just had a terrific 'tough love' session with Messari leadership, and I can't tell you how much I appreciate people who approach me in good faith and help rein me in because they know my vision and where my heart is. I ran too hot this week, and will address that in full soon."
Screenshot showing Selkis' Twitter account was protected
glad to see that selkis has learned from this and will apparently be [checks notes] tweeting at greater length about how leftists can die in a fire

Ryan Selkis has just announced he's "stepping aside" as CEO of Messari.


Ryan Selkis (d/acc) 🇺🇸 @twobitidiot 17m A leader's first responsibility is to his team. This week was the first week in 6.5 years that my politics and rhetoric put the team in harms way. As such, I have decided to step aside as CEO. My friend, colleague, and founding teammate @ericturnr will be taking the helm. Statement: I've decided to step aside from my operating CEO role at Messari and transition to the role of Senior Advisor. This was a decision I did not take lightly and one I was very close to making last month, as I considered the problems I was most passionate about tackling in ...
I guess if a pillow company CEO can pull off the pivot to right-wing talking head maybe a crypto CEO has a shot at it
🧐

highlighted: "failure to tamp down divisive rhetoric"
"can die in a fucking fire."
"Bolshevism cannot be cured with votes. We must excise the metastatic cancer and evil of the left, by force if necessary."

It’s finally time to release my newest project:

This website provides a real-time lens into the cryptocurrency industry’s efforts to influence 2024 elections in the United States. followthecrypto.org
A screenshot of the front page of FollowTheCrypto.org, showing total amounts raised by crypto-currency focused PACs ($203 million) and amounts spent ($38 million). There are also graphs showing expenditures by political party, and expenditures by PAC. There is a list of the top elections influenced by crypto industry money, of the most highly-funded super PACs overall, and of recent expenditures by crypto-focused committees.
I have been working on this for the past two months, after growing more concerned about the influence this industry is trying to exert. Did you know crypto companies have spent more this cycle than the oil or pharmaceutical industries, despite being a fraction of the size? A bar chart showing the amount of election spending by sector. Data: Crypto $203,000,000,All health $193,706,986,Communications $178,671,462,Lawyers & lobbyists $172,810,610,All energy $152,567,769,Labor $120,230,704,Transportation $98,461,871,Construction $85,162,003,Agribusiness $84,400,550,Defense $25,445,961
There is more to come, including a bot that will post real-time updates about contributions or expenditures, which you can follow in advance at @follow__crypto. You can also learn more in my announcement post over at Citation Needed: citationneeded.news/follow-the-cry…

Escaped the courtroom and have my phone during lunch. Some notes from Sam Bankman-Fried's cross-examination this morning, which started around 11:25am 🧵
Bankman-Fried came off as pretty evasive in his replies, often claiming "I don't recall" or saying he didn't remember saying something "with that specific phrasing"
Asked if he directed trades at Alameda after stepping down as CEO, he said no, but he did direct company to hedge. Govt came prepared with Signal chats of him suggesting specific trades of MAPS/OXY

now @lindayaX has reposted the ad, claiming it's to upload a higher-res version, while quietly swapping out the tweets that were critical of elon. compare

Tweet by Linda Yaccarino: a hint of what's to come... (in higher res)

@lindayaX They even went to the trouble of finding a *different* QT of the same tweet with the video of Bill Maher to swap in for the @eve6 one 😂

shoutout to whichever twitter employee snuck two tweets dunking on twitter and elon into their new ad



roon @tszzl the timeline algo is dying fr it’s becoming mediocre engagement maxxed on low effort repost accounts and dating discourse
Right Wing Cope @RightWingCope Twitter’s value has fallen by at least 50%, and Elon is blaming it all on the Jews. Masterful gambit sir Screenshot of Elon Musk tweet: Interesting. In our case, they would potentially be on the hook for destroying half the value of the company, so roughly $22 billion.
Screenshot of Twitter ad showing the roon tweet scrolling past on a phone
Screenshot of Twitter ad showing the RightWingCope tweet scrolling past on a phone
twitter ad: "✨ you've been here before for news, sports, and culture 💖"

the tweets: "life under late stage capitalism is a hellscape"


Tweet: eve6 @Eve6 "You aren't owed a living for doing a job that creates value and enriches people who don't create anything" is a good way to describe the conceit of capitalism Quoted tweet: Post-Left Watch @PostLeftWatch · Sep 3 Bill Maher wants to acknowledge the "big other side" of the writer's strike, and while he says they're getting "screwed a little bit by the streamers", a lot of their demands are "kooky". "They kinda believe that you're owed a living as a writer, and you're not".
Tweet: Mia Blume @mialoira My entire career has been dependent on men. To promote me. To hire me. To advocate for me to their peer groups. I’ve been slowly changing that, but I look forward to the day where it doesn’t feel true any more.
Tweet: A. H. @a_h_reaume When an HR person asked if I gave permission to share I'd been diagnosed w/ PTSD from discrimination to my boss, I told them I wouldn't give permission until they told me they would protect me from retaliation. In an email to share this, they started by writing out SIGH.
Tweet: Nathan Hare @nathanharenice Me: Can I please have a place to live Every apartment: Join the ranks of a new generation. A bespoke, crafted living space at the intersection of work and play, just steps away from everlasting memories. Welcome to the Manchester™. Rent is 7000
@Eve6 honorable mentions: a (now-deleted?) QT about james cameron writing a trans person into his 1986 film aliens, and this tweet about roman polanski and vincent gallo

Tweet by mary: This is from Aliens! James Cameron wrote that. Quoted tweet by ForceWave @forcewave1139: Trans people have existed in science-fiction as far back as the original Alien lmao
Tweet: ForceWave 💛❤️💙 @forcewave1139 Trans people have existed in science-fiction as far back as the original Alien lmao
Tweet: v.g @insufficentfund paul schrader is a swiftie roman polanski is a pedophile vincent gallo is a nazi accept it, at the end of the day i only care about the movies

remember golden, which was supposed to be web3's project to "fix" wikipedia by adding crypto incentives for editing?

you don't get points for editing it anymore and they've done a full pivot to AI

their website used to say that they created golden because "the world is lacking a decentralized graph of canonical knowledge that is open, free, permissionless and incentivizes agents to enter data into the graph."

(from oct '22: ) web.archive.org/web/2022100412…

A decentralized canonical knowledge graph Get involved ➜ Sign up for updates ➜ / Decentralized / Permissionless / Canonical canonical /kəˈnɒnɪk(ə)l/ accepted as being accurate and authoritative. The world is lacking a decentralized graph of canonical knowledge that is open, free, permissionless and incentivizes agents to enter data into the graph. Our vision is to create a protocol that maps the 10 billion entities that exist and the public knowledge that surrounds them.
Consensus and / graph validated Each agent can submit triples to be validated, and, if accepted, will be rewarded tokens. Validators and predictions from the knowledge graph itself decide if triples are accepted. In essence, the protocol incentivizes the knowledge graph construction while defending against gaming attacks.
i assume they awkwardly tacked on that bit about "incentivizing agents to enter data into the graph", because otherwise they're just describing @wikidata

now they appear to have taken away this incentive model, and have closed down the "community" they once cultivated

Former FTX exec Ryan Salame has pled guilty to two charges in the ongoing FTX trial. Many had been wondering when an indictment would come out against him, particularly as his donations to Republican political causes had already been alleged to have been straw donations.
Salame (pronounced "Salem", not "salami") was mentioned in the prosecutors' motions in limine, which revealed that they had access to some of his personal communications.

4. Ryan Salame’s Messages About Being a Straw Donor Are Not Barred by the Rule Against Hearsay6 The Government seeks to admit statements by Ryan Salame, a co-conspirator in the defendant’s illegal campaign finance scheme and unavailable declarant, about his agreement with the defendant to make political donations in his own name but paid for by the defendant. These statements are excepted from the rule against hearsay as statements against penal interest under Rule 804(b)(3).7 For example, in a private message to a trusted family member in November 2021, Salame explained that the defendant ...
He's been charged with one count of conspiracy to operate an unlicensed money transmitting business and one count of conspiracy to make unlawful political contributions and defraud the Federal Election Commission.
