If I am understanding this correctly Sam Bankman Fried who’s out on a bail for fraud charges created a meme coin called “BALD” on Coinbase’s own chain because the CEO of coinbase is bald and then proceeded to pull the rug and pocket $16M+? And this is a real industry?

One of my good friends from college passed away yesterday. The last time he was in NYC I didn’t get dinner with him because I was “busy”. You’re never too busy for your friends, and you never know if it’s the last time you’ll get to see them. Cherish every moment, life is short.

@BobEUnlimited I agree with your overall sentiment as the former banks guy at the mothership, even with large HTM systemwide losses, many of the players managed their books this time a lot better than SIVB (No way BofA with a $100B HTM loss doesn't have offsetting IRS gains somewhere else).

The SEC has proposed a new “predictive data analytics” (PDA) rule that would severely curb financial services firms from using technology to serve customers. @RobinhoodApp has voiced opposition, and I strongly stand behind it. This would have a major impact on investors. (1/7)
