The moment the new daily coronavirus numbers are smaller than the previous days for 3-7 days is the moment I'll just buy everything, stocks crypto, you name it, it's fair game. Until then I'll preserve capital as good as I can.

This now happening in crypto is how true liquidations look like. That's all one needs to understand. And it is 100% driven by coronavirus.

Brazilian stocks now down 12%, on course for their biggest fall since Oct. 1998 ... Russia, LTCM, looming real crisis and all that.

Bitcoin had a stale block this morning at height 619,970: * 4 second time gap * First stale block since 2020-02-27 * No double spends - The stale block contained 10 txns excluded from the competing block, which all made it into the next block (619,971) forkmonitor.info/nodes/btc

“I find it ironic that the first world talks about how bitcoin is freedom to the unbanked, but the unbanked have no way to get bitcoin” Great article by @La__Cuen! A timely reality check on the whole "banking the unbanked" narrative... coindesk.com/global-protest…

The "banking the unbanked" narrative assumes the "unbanked" needs/wants/would benefit from "getting banked". This is a wild assumption. For decades, Argentinians have avoided "getting banked" wholeheartedly.

So far, 90% of the teams I met who are building Defi for the unbanked never met a single unbanked in their entire life My favorite question for them is “describe the life of any unbanked ppl you know, as detailed as possible” 🤭🤭🤭

When I got into Bitcoin in 2012, the narrative was banking the unbanked, foreign remittances, cheaper payments than credit cards...all of those flopped; none of those became the killer app we imagined. The first real killer app of Bitcoin was...capital formation.

1/N. Short thread on T-Mlobile/Sprint merger. There were 2 theories: (A) It's a 4-to-3 merger that will lower competition and increase markups. (B) The new merged entity will be able to take on the industry leaders ATT and Verizon. (A) and (B) make clear predictions.

The open will be volatile. SGX opens 8PM EST, Shanghai 830PM EST. So while most of Europe sleeps and most of North america watches the Superbowl, the Chinese will be flipping financial assets at top speed.

Chinese stock and futures markets were closed all of last week for Chinese New Year. Should expect markets to open today about 7% lower, which is how much SGX China stock futures (Sing based) dropped last week.

#China markets to re-open tonight. "Yuan talks " reminder...Expecting not only short selling bans but also big liquidity injections, likely paired with #interest rate and RRR cuts and #PBOC #CNY interventions not be ruled out. #Coroanvirus x.com/YuanTalks/stat…

8/ Within the report, we also provide some metrics to quantify the significance of this trend and how it developed over time. The tables below show the average returns based on entries when OI was above 1 billion, along with how often price declined after those entries.
