with the imminent advent of bitcoin staking via @babylon_chain, what restaking yield farming opportunities does it unlock?
is yield bearing $btc really risk free or too good to be true?
join me, together w/ @pendle_fi & @Bedrock_DeFi, on @interchainfm in 7 hrs to find out 👇
This Thurs: @lexavellino will come on to cover what @thestrangeclan is up to, bringing blockchain gaming to @cosmos. It's one of the first P2E, or "quest-to-earn", games landing in the meta-cosmoverse 🗡️👾

Roger Ver was just arrested for not having paid enough taxes.
Facts:
1. He renounced > 10 years ago (any statute of limitations would've been over by now)
2. When he renounced, he got a full audit of everything he owned, then paid 50%
3. The IRS targeted him recently, even while not being a US citizen
4. He was arrested in Spain
5. He's getting extradited to the US
When the govt is poor but you're rich, it will steal from you. And nowhere in the world is safe apparently.

.@unstoppableweb is throwing its weight to bully the little guys, starting w/ @HNS TLD owners. It's not unthinkable to extrapolate that once they've knocked down .wallet, that they'll go after every valuable domain name not just in $HNS but @ensdomains as well.
IBC is the killer app of Cosmos. 2 years ago today, the 1st ever IBC TX was made.
On April 3rd, I’ll be hosting a livestream on @cosmos to celebrate the anniversary of this historic day 👨🚀👩🚀
The best minds in DeFi are thinking about how to give users better UX and returns than any other financial vehicles that exist
The best minds in tradfi are thinking about out how to extract more value from an already debased userbase
We're not the same.
How is @SeiNetwork offering state of the art performance & high TPS in the @cosmos BFT consensus paradigm? Through parallelization & Narwhal's DAG-based mempool, similar to Sui. If this isn't English, get the laymen's download in my interview w/ Jay Jog.

Superfluid Staking is landing on @osmosis. Tmr, @sunnya97 joins me to cover that + more Interchain DeFi money legos being built on the appchain. It's alpha you won't want to miss!

He’s right. If you remove the human from the creation equation in favor of speed and convenience, then you may as well remove meaning from life itself.
In the spirit of dogfooding our own Interchain tech, I'm launching limited edition (out of 777) @interchainfm POAPs on @SecretNetwork to commemorate our upcoming cosmos q&a livestream w/ @ThatKevinSmith. Any engagement w/this 🧵 will get a chance to mint🍃link.medium.com/0Gu531PPcrb
.@ericinjective is discussing tmr how @InjectiveLabs is launching a @cosmossdk based derivatives DEX ⛓️
You'll learn how Injective will soon enable you to do on-chain perpetual swaps & how it changes the game for market makers ⤵️

Having @ericinjective back on the podcast for a post-mainnet update 🗞️ Innovating in the decentralized derivatives mkt is a blue ocean in the Interchain ecosystem & @InjectiveLabs

True breakthroughs in decentralized tech happen once only every couple of years. In between those years, such breakthroughs spur Cambrian explosions of applications borrowing from such innovations.
Today, such a breakthrough was revealed. 🧵
Unpopular opinion: Tron was a plagiarism of ethereumj. And let's be real - nobody actually uses #LiquidNetwork - so to the first guy who ever adopts it, the sellers will throw out their principles and pander to a paying customer.
Exhibit A:
It's been an epic saga being a part of @tendermint_team. Today marks the close of that saga. I'm transitioning to being an advisor in order to work on products that more directly address DeFi and dWeb demands. It's been a pleasure to serve you, Cosmonauts

Today, I was touched on the shoulder by @ilblackdragon.
His tweet was touched by @musalbas whose shoulder was touched by John McAfee, therefore I was touched by McAfee.
WSB is Occupy Wall St 2.0. And now it's come to crypto, leveraging the power of DAOs @WSBDapp
I talked to absolute legend @wallstreetbets for his insights at the epicenter of the whole movement

We solved this first in 2014, so we were ahead of the curve by 7 years. @cosmos was among the first chains built on Tendermint BFT, and today Tendermint powers many of the world's top blockchains. @tendermint_team@Tendermint_Core @cosmos_alliance @allinbitsinc
Join me & @sergey_nog in ~12 hrs to learn about how @axelarcore is building the long-anticipated #Bitcoin (and $BTC-like chains) bridge to PoS ecosystems like @cosmos 👩🚀 This will be one of the most 🗝️ pieces of core infrastructure for the Interchain⛓️

1/ W/o further ado, the @cosmos update for @OurNetwork__ that went missing in this wk's issue bc of technical difficulties 👇
a) a modified DeFi equivalents on Cosmos chart
b) smart contracting alternatives in Cosmos
c) rising $ATOM price impacts aggregate network staking rate
TMR: @fekunze will come to cover everything @EvmosOrg. Join us for the up-to-the-minute scoop about what's in store for Cosmos' EVM appchain 👇

Vitalik proposing an alternative PBFT model to CBC would make ETH2 🌉 Cosmos chains that much more composable. We always knew Ethereum & Cosmos were destined for a happy marriage 💍
A proposed alternative to CBC-ification for long-term hardening+simplification of the consensus mechanism: moving to committee-based single-slot finality. My proposal and some discussion-here:

It's @osmosis mainnet's 1st birthday today 🎊 Here are some photos from #OsmoCon and birthday party. Bear market? More like BUILDER'S market. #CosmosEcosystem
.@CelestiaOrg is a data availability layer that shortens ur time to market to deploy an appchain. Celestia is a Cosmos ecosystem chain slated to launch next yr.

Had the pleasure of chatting w/ @hosseeb & @el33th4xor on @interchainfm@CoinDesk Consensus. Slightly different subj matter than what you’re used to on the regular technical interview lineup but w/ more coverage about the web3 macro situation amidst AI’s hot girl summer.

Next week, I'll be talking to @gregosuri on the next ep of Interchain.FM about the security risks of using centralized infra like the DNS-level vulnerabilities that were exploited on @CreamdotFinance & @PancakeSwap earlier in the month and how @akashnet solves them.
What are @cosmos inscriptions and why is everyone going crazy on Asteroid?
First it was $ROIDS, then it was $RUNE, then even $VEGGS minted out within minutes.
Are we in Inscriptions Summer?
We'll be streaming live on @interchainfm at 6PM UTC here & on YouTube.
If you want to ask questions during the livestream, you know where to go.
That was not a lapse in judgment. 那个 is a filler word in Mandarin, exactly as he explained it. My mother says it 20 times a day in conversation and it has nothing to do with a racial slur.
Excited to have David Tse back on @interchainfm for pt 2 of @babylon_chain now that they're at the eve of mainnet 🚀
What we'll cover:
1) Timestamping testnet (45 cosmos chains & counting)
2) #Bitcoin "staking", testnet launched w/ 100k NFTs minted in 48 hrs for the first 100k stakers
3) @cosmoshub partnership
🗓️ 3/20 @ 11pm UTC
As usual, join us on the livestream as we go live to engage w/ our speakers

Not a comprehensive map or the latest and greatest but I’m confident you’ll get it now.
1. AEZ (interchain secured chains using $ATOM)
2. @cosmos network (uses @cosmossdk, IBC, or Tendermint BFT)
3. Interchain, the internet of blockchains, also known as the end state of web3

TYSM @badkidsart & the Bad Kids community for my guy here. I will rep #9609 as a badge of honor. As a kid, I was eccentric, super hyper, but ultimately too out there for the cool kids. As an adult now part of the bad kids club, my inner child feels whole.
The Cosmos Hub mainnet will roll out in 3 phases:
I: mainnet gains stability
II: transfers enabled
III: IBC enabled
Like the Mercury, Gemini, and the Apollo Missions, landing a human safely onto the 🌚 takes calculated, progressive steps.

To predict the future, u don't need a 🔮. Just look around u & 👀 which experiments pioneers are testing. @ThatKevinSmith is proving that filmmakers can get public funding & IMO (initial movie offering) w/ NFTs to sell movie shares to disrupt Hollywood🤯
piped.video/b5PF-Ff0mlA
The fat protocol thesis is the winning thesis now, but can it maintain its dominance as the crypto sector onboards 1b+ users into the late majority phase?
Initia is building the network of interwoven rollups, betting on vertical scalability on modular stacks becoming the dominant thesis onward.
Will fat protocols become the AOL of web3?
Cosmonauts, we're welcoming @ThatKevinSmith to the ecosystem w/a Cosmos community Q&A on @interchainfm. Indie filmmakers & Hollywood alike are realizing IBC ecosystem's potential to home their movie NFTs.
