Growing up in the United States, NYSE was synonymous with the story of American capitalism. I vividly remember learning about the Buttonwood agreement in 9th grade history class. 24 stockbrokers met under a tree on Wall Street and formed the beginning of what would become the world's financial center. From pits to computers to now onchain markets, America has always led the way in innovating markets to improve price discovery and capital formation. Today the next chapter begins with ICE, trade[XYZ], and Hyperliquid.
ICE started as an electricity-trading platform in 2000, growing to acquire NYSE itself in only 13 years. It is a key infrastructure provider of America’s energy, bond, and mortgage markets. ICE is a rare story of exponential growth of a financial giant over decades, continually embracing innovation and technology.
trade[XYZ] was the first HIP-3 deployer and responsible for spearheading the flourishing global RWA perpetual market today. Only a year ago, trade[XYZ] launched its first RWA perpetual markets. They took a bet on HIP-3, which had just launched after months of tireless development. Having followed their journey from day 1, I cannot overstate how much Shoku and the team have poured into growing these markets to a genuine source of price discovery for the most important assets in the world.
Over the past three years, Hyperliquid has pioneered onchain infrastructure to house all of finance. Hyperliquid is nothing without its world-class builders. I am honored that trade[XYZ] and ICE have chosen to build on Hyperliquid to bring perpetual contracts to America.
When I first spoke to Jeff Sprecher around a year ago, he asked what success looks like to me. I thought for some time and joked that it would be seeing ICE building on Hyperliquid's technology. I could never have predicted the progress that we've made as a community in a single year to make this come true. Excited to see what we can build together next.
Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) and trade[XYZ] have announced their plan to use Hyperliquid as the infrastructure layer to deploy perpetual futures markets for US traders across crypto, equities, commodities, foreign exchange, and other real-world assets, subject to regulatory approvals. ICE operates NYSE and some of the largest exchanges and clearing houses globally.
In this structure:
+ Hyperliquid serves as the underlying technology infrastructure via HIP-3*
+ trade[XYZ] designs and implements the markets
+ ICE operates the regulated market and clearing structure
Existing trade[XYZ] HIP-3 markets will remain unchanged.
Hyperliquid is a neutral infrastructure layer with the goal of supporting large parts of the financial system. As with HIP-3, HIP-3* deployers are independent operators who use Hyperliquid as the onchain infrastructure layer for their own markets, while retaining control and responsibility over their deployment.

Introducing Intel Trade.
Hyperliquid established a new paradigm:
All Finance on-chain, with full transparency.
Intel turns that data into Intelligence, giving traders the tools to make better decisions.
After a gated F&F phase, Intel is now opening access to more traders.👇

And the most important thing is that once Trump finally cuts off even the sale of weapons paid for with European money, all intelligence sharing, and access to Starlink (and I think he will go all the way, because he's gone too far in his hysterical terror of the coming electoral defeat and has completely lost his head over promises of corrupt deals with the Kremlin) -- Putin will no longer have any use for him.
Trump will have done everything he can possibly do to hurt Ukraine, forced it to find at least partial replacements for everything American, completely and irreversibly destroyed the last remaining shreds of the Western world's trust in the United States and America's role in the free world, and then he'll be tossed onto the garbage heap by Putin without getting anything substantial in return.
I don't think Putin and his mafia consigliere will even have to keep dangling the carrot in front of Trump and his cronies after that.
Trump will stubbornly keep shooting himself in the foot over Ukraine until the bitter end, keep salivating over promises of "$12 trillion deals," and never, ever admit to his own greatest mistake.

Ascend is the launchpad for Elysium’s next generation of projects.
Our responsibility extends beyond launch day.
We think the protocol token model is broken
Platform revenue can grow while the projects generating it lose liquidity and momentum. Constant rotation keeps the business earning without requiring individual projects to succeed.
A protocol token adds more liquidity fragmentation. Buying it back directs revenue toward the platform’s token rather than directly supporting the projects generating those fees.
We are rebuilding the launchpad model around continued investment in builders and the ecosystem.
Our revenue model funds creator payouts, buybacks and liquidity support for qualifying projects, and $HYPE and kinetiq:native buybacks. The activity projects generate on Ascend create the resources to support their continued growth.
Those who support us early and consistently won't go unnoticed. Hyperliquid community, this is the part of Ascend we’ve been waiting to show you.
Our upcoming NFT collection introduces that part of Ascend.
Free mint. 500 Ascend NFTs. Three tiers.
The collection is being designed around enhanced participation in Ascend. Those who hold these will receive upside in the success of our protocol, in the form of ███████████████.
We will set aside WL for KNTQ & HYPE holders, early Ascend supporters, Hypurr NFT's, Hyperliquid communities, partners, and builders.

We're watching those who follow our journey. 👁️

After 9 years in crypto I realised my edge is being able to sleep soundly with nearly my entire net worth in made up internet money.
The normie mind could never understand, it’s unfathomable to them, and that’s why I keep on doing well.
I watch my friends squirm about $200 going up and down and they can’t take it.
We have developed such strong mental fortitude (mental illness) after witnessing traumatic event after traumatic event in crypto.
It’s such a massive edge that only comes through time and pain.
Your success in markets directly corresponds with how much uncertainty you can continually tolerate.
You are paid to take risk.
Cultivating conviction in crypto has been the greatest opportunity of my life so far.

I used GPT-6 Astra to build a neural copy of 169 winning memecoin traders, then handed it money.
+$2,088 in a week. ×2.2 on capital. Nobody touched it.
82% of its calls went above entry. It posts every one of them to X and Telegram by itself.
Anyone can get the same calls.
139,454 fills. 6,289 tokens. 536 wallets scored. The top one is up $10.8M in 30 days. Still $0 a month in API bills.
Every 20 seconds:
> READS every fill on Robinhood Chain, 20 seconds behind the block
> CHECKS the receipt on each one. 1 in 11 "smart money buys" on this chain is fake, it zeroes them
> SCORES every trader 0 to 100 the way the 169 would, reasoning written out
> FIRES when trusted wallets pile into one coin inside 30 minutes. 66 calls last week, 54 above entry
> TRADES its own bursts. $100 a ticket, 17 tickets, +$2,088 in 5 days
> POSTS every call to Telegram 20 seconds after the fill and to X an hour later
CATGPT ran ×27 after the call.
musebook did ×18 on a $100 ticket and covered all 9 losers of the week.
Jane Street has a desk of humans reading trades like this and the results never leave the building. This one puts them on a public timeline an hour later.
The site, the bot, the X account and the code are all in my profile.
Next the algo goes live on a public wallet, and the flywheel gets its second turn.

The average active trader pays around $28,400 a year in swap fees. That's 0.85% on every trade, on the wallets everyone uses.
Most people never notice. You probably did, which is why you barely touch the swap tab anymore.
Aurus is live. 0.001 SOL per swap, flat, no matter the size.

How I look at training in a nutshell ...
As a cost/benefit, risk/reward proposition.
On special occasions, you might be in a good position to tolerate risk.

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July. I know @realDonaldTrump and family did.
250 years ago we declared independence from a king who ran the colonies as a family business. In just 18 months the Trumps have made King George look like an amateur.
A $620 million Pentagon loan, the largest in the program’s history, to a company Don Jr.’s firm bought into three months before.
An Air Force drone contract to a startup the princelings took public through a golf course company they own a piece of.
The Army’s largest drone motor order ever, to a company where Don Jr. sits on the board and holds millions in stock.
A $24 million Pentagon robotics contract to the company that employs Eric as Chief Strategy Advisor.
A stake in the largest undeveloped tungsten deposit on earth, in Kazakhstan, backed by $1.6 billion in US government support.
Jared’s fund seeded with $2 billion from the Saudi crown prince, now $6.2 billion, 99% of it foreign money from Gulf governments. Over $110 million in fees collected from the Saudis alone. He negotiates American foreign policy with the governments that pay him.
$2.3 billion from crypto ventures their father regulates. More than a million people bought in and lost $2.3 billion. The money didn’t grow. It simply moved from the subjects pockets to the crown’s coffers.
And the next one is already drafted. A proposed ATF rule that will allow guns to be shipped straight to your front door. The government’s own estimate is 3.3 million home gun deliveries a year. Don Jr. sits on the board of the online gun megastore built to cash in. He holds 300,000 shares.
And that’s only the fraction they’ve allowed us to see. Not one subpoena served. Not one search executed. Why hide anything when you own the investigators?
Me? They searched a laptop for six years. Federal prosecutors. Grand juries. Subpoena power. Congressional hearings. They found nothing. I made about $200k a year selling paintings when my Dad was President, and they made my paintings part of an impeachment inquiry.
For six years they’ve asked Where’s Hunter? What about the laptop?
Wrong questions. The right one is 250 years old. Does America belong to a family?
They’ve given their answer. Long live the King.

Flood reveals the exact reason billionaires never die wishing for another billion.
When you go to work, you are trading your one truly finite resource for capital: your time. The ultimate high for the ultra-successful is never the cash or the toys, it is the actual feeling of accomplishment.
To build to that level, you first need a foundational understanding of how money, the dollar, and interest rates work. Only then can you decide what to own, whether that is gold, Bitcoin, equities, or Hyperliquid.
But the reality is that most people should not focus too much on investing.
Instead, you need to form a worldview. If you believe AI is going to take over the world, you might put half your investments there, but your real focus should be on your labor. Get educated.
Spend all your time becoming one of the most knowledgeable people on AI so you can exchange your skills and time for even more capital.

Things the recovery industry will not tell you:
1. The drug worked. That is why people use it. Not weakness. Not moral failure.
A neurological event so complete and persuasive that any honest account of addiction has to start there.
The problem is not that the drug fails. The problem is that what it does is unrepeatable, and you will burn your entire life to the ground trying to get back to a place that no longer exists.
2. Shame is not guilt. Guilt says I did something bad. Shame says I am something bad. Guilt is appropriate. Shame is a cell with no windows. Most people use the words interchangeably. That mistake is lethal.
3. You cannot shame someone who has already named the thing you are holding over them. Say it first. Say it in plain light. The weapon drops.
4. Guilt can coexist with self-respect. Shame cannot. You can hold the damage and the dignity at the same time. I know because I live there.
5. Radical honesty does not give you back who you were. It hands you the clean slate of who you always wanted to be. The mask comes off. The cartoon other people drew of you stays on the page.
6. Nobody gets clean on a winning streak.
7. You have to be almost self-delusional in your forgiveness of yourself. (Go watch Chase Hughes)
8. The greatest sin was not the chaos. It was the absence. Being unavailable to the people who needed you.
9. Sustainable recovery starts with one thing: honesty with yourself. If you love an addict and want to help, that is the only door in.
10. I am only an expert on my recovery. Nobody is an expert on anyone else’s.
