Jussy broke down the whole thing on his Sunday stream, and honestly, it’s about as simple as a giveaway gets. TrueCurrent is giving away stocks from $META, $TSLA, $NVDA, $SNAP, and $AMC. You sign up with code JUSSY and trade at least $10 on the platform to qualify. Trading there has zero fees, so you don’t need to move big volume to take part. A small first trade is enough to qualify. Winners will be selected after October 23, so there’s still time to get in before then. Not everyone who enters will win, but the barrier to entry is low enough that it’s worth a look. Head to TrueCurrent, use code JUSSY, and make your $10 trade.

Kelly-optimized leverage is the first leverage setup I’ve looked at where the pitch is to hold it and stop watching the chart. Normally leverage means checking your liquidation price at 3am. @2FactorFinance manages the leverage target for you and gets its financing from investors who want steady yield instead of from shorts, which is how it ends up about 75% cheaper than the usual options, with no liquidations. That’s not the same as no risk, the position can still lose value, but it changes what holding it feels like. I joined the Points Program because it’s free and needs no deposit, and I’ve finished the first 2 tasks. Season 1 Marks carry over into Season 2, and the top 10 on the final Season 1 leaderboard split 1 BTC.

Robinhood Chain is getting an interesting upgrade. With @UmbraPrivacy, you can hold supported assets privately without having to swap them into something else, and private trading is available from day one in early access. I think that’s an important step. Making finance accessible is one thing, but giving people more control over how their financial activity is seen makes the experience even better. Privacy shouldn’t feel like an extra feature. It should be part of the system. Early Access is live, powered by @NimbusPrivacy. v2.umbraprivacy.com/robinhoo…

What’s the point of keeping your money private if it just sits there doing nothing? That’s the problem @UmbraPrivacy and SolomonLabs are tackling with uUSDv. It brings private dollar holdings and variable rewards together, giving people a way to keep their dollars in the privacy pool while their ownership grows. Rewards aren’t guaranteed, but the idea of making privacy and capital utility work together makes sense to me. Privacy shouldn’t mean putting your money’s potential on hold.

some old games had graphics that look terrible by today’s standards, yet people still talk about them years later. i think part of it is that the experience wasn’t built entirely around making everything look realistic. the soundtrack, the difficulty, the characters, the levels you spent hours trying to beat. those things stayed with you. modern games can look almost like real life, but visual quality alone doesn’t guarantee a memorable experience. sometimes a simple game with great mechanics gives you more reason to return than a massive game with a hundred things to do. what’s one old game you could still play today without getting bored?

something i’ve been thinking about is how comfortable we’ve become with giving apps access to our lives. location, contacts, photos, browsing habits, microphone permissions. we click “allow” just to get past the setup screen and start using whatever we downloaded. but if a service is free, it’s worth asking how the company makes its money and what information it actually needs from us. not every permission is suspicious, but convenience shouldn’t mean giving away access without thinking. a few seconds reading the permissions can save you from sharing more than you intended.

Not everything onchain should be everyone’s business. That’s why confidential finance on @MidnightNtwrk’s roadmap interests me. Businesses need to transact and prove things without exposing every sensitive detail to the public. Making that possible through programmable privacy could remove a real barrier to onchain adoption. With permissionless smart contract deployment now live on mainnet, I’m curious to see what builders create. Midnight’s roadmap is worth watching: midnight.network/roadmap

hot take: a restaurant can have amazing food and still be a terrible restaurant. if the staff treat customers badly, the place is uncomfortable and you have to beg three times just to get someone’s attention, the experience is already ruined. people don’t remember only what they ate. they remember how they were treated, how long they waited and whether they actually enjoyed being there. good food gets people through the door. the whole experience determines whether they come back.

solana moves fast, and sometimes you discover a coin only after it has already started running. @urgefunX is building a platform that helps you spot coins gaining traction, track buyer activity, and check what creators are actually doing with their tokens. i like the idea of doing some research before jumping into a trade instead of relying on timeline hype alone. come check out URGE and join the community. let’s see what’s cooking in the solana trenches ⏩️explore URGE: urge.fun/?ref=OBDBD3LS ⏩️join the telegram: t.me/urge_official

i’ve always found abandoned places interesting. an empty house, an old cinema, a building that used to be full of people but now has nothing happening inside. you start wondering about the lives that once occupied those spaces. the conversations, the arguments, the celebrations, the ordinary days nobody thought would ever become memories. it’s strange how a place can hold so much history without saying a single word. sometimes i wish abandoned buildings could tell us what they’ve seen.

there’s a weird part of growing up where you realize your parents are also just people trying to figure life out. when you’re a child, you assume adults have everything under control. they know what to do, they have answers, and somehow things always work out. then you get older and realize they were making decisions with the information they had at the time, just like everybody else. it makes you appreciate some things differently. imagine trying to raise another human while you’re still learning how to be one yourself.

Owning your crypto shouldn’t mean the whole internet gets to watch what you do with it. Self-custody gives you control of your assets. Privacy gives you room to use them without turning every transaction into a public announcement. That’s the part of onchain finance we need to take seriously. With @UmbraPrivacy v2, private transfers take under 5 seconds and private swaps around 15 seconds on Solana. Your money, your assets, your business. Privacy shouldn’t be a luxury in crypto. It should be part of ownership. Umbra v2 is live 👇 umbraprivacy.com

Funny thing about earnings nights is everyone pretends they’re calm. I’m not. After talking it through with @Sam_Badawi I stopped caring about the beat, because the market already bought that ticket weeks ago. What I’m actually watching is the CFO’s voice when the guidance question comes up. If it sounds like a company that can’t build HBM fast enough, I’m happy. If anyone says the word “digest” about demand, I’m out the door. Sam thinks Burry gets his win someday and honestly I agree, I just don’t want to be the one shorting a highway while the cars are still pouring on. So I’m leaning bullish into the print, with one eye on the exit. Where are you sitting tonight, bullish or bearish on $MU?

scroll through enough timelines and you’ll notice something strange. different creators, different accounts, different projects, but sometimes everything feels like it came from the same person. the same designs. the same captions. the same perfectly polished visuals. that’s why i appreciate work with a little personality in it. an unusual idea, a rough sketch, a weird colour combination or even a small detail that tells you somebody actually made a choice. not everything needs to be perfect to be memorable. sometimes the thing that makes your work stand out is the part you almost changed because you thought it looked weird.

i want a life where not every good moment has to be an achievement. a random afternoon spent watching football. good food after a long day. laughing with friends over something completely unserious. finding a movie that’s actually worth watching. sometimes we get so focused on building a better future that we forget we’re also living in the present. i still have plenty of things i want to achieve, but i don’t want to postpone enjoying life until everything falls into place. the ordinary days count too.

ai can generate an image in seconds, write paragraphs in seconds and help you finish work that would’ve taken hours. that’s impressive, and pretending otherwise makes no sense. but i think we’re going to reach a point where the human effort behind something becomes part of its value. when everybody can generate something that looks good, the idea, taste, personal experience and thought behind the work matter even more. i don’t think the answer is to reject ai completely. i’d rather see people use it to expand what they can create instead of letting it do all the thinking for them.

sometimes i spend more time looking at an artwork than i planned to. not necessarily because it’s the most beautiful thing i’ve seen, but because there’s something about it i can’t quite explain. the colours, the little details, the way everything comes together. you start wondering what the artist was thinking when they made it. that’s what i appreciate about art. two people can look at the same piece and walk away with completely different feelings. the artist creates it, but everybody brings their own story to it. that’s a different kind of connection.
