🎬 Lights, Camera, Arrested:

  • While on house arrest in Palo Alto, SBF has been meeting with Michael Lewis.

  • That's not his lawyer... That's a critically acclaimed Hollywood writer.

  • Lewis is known for his movies like The Big Short & Moneyball.

  • Apparently they've been collaborating for 6 months, well before FTX collapsed.

  • We're reserving front row seats when this movie comes out 🍿.

🌿 Penguins Flying

📝 Low-Risk, High-Reward

There are plenty of opportunities to make low-risk, high-reward investments in Web3, if you know where to look.

DAOs are one of them. Take those ten minutes on your toilet to interact with a DAO. It could lead you to a job offer down the line.

First, WTF is a DAO?

  1. "DAOs" are just communities of people who share a common interest.

  2. Communities need leaders in order to function. But DAOs don't have a board, a president, or a CEO.

  3. Instead, they are governed by smart contracts coded on the blockchain.

  4. A.K.A., it's a new way to organize people without any human authority- just computer code.

Yes, it's that simple.

Another way to think of a DAO is like a club.

Web3 is full of these "clubs" because everyone WANTS to be there, and they're seeking like-minded individuals.

But in typical web3 fashion, we can't just have ordinary clubs.

For too long, corporations and organizations have been making decisions without employee, member, or shareholder input. DAOs have reimagined what we know is possible when it comes to a more democratic model of decision making.

Here's a video that explains DAOs beautifully, if you need a little more sugar:

Ok.. I get what they are. But what's the point?

The point of a DAO is to harness the power of group coordination to accomplish a goal, make a purchase, or gain access to something.

DAOs are generally used for:

  • Crowdfunding

  • NFT purchases

  • Virtual world governance

  • Managing protocols & apps

  • Raising venture capital

  • and so much more.

Right now, Uniswap takes the throne for the largest and most well known DAO. If you've been an active Uniswap member, you can apply for DAO membership which gives you access to their world of governance.

YOU can use a DAO for:

  • NETWORKING,

  • Getting involved in community, culture, music, & art,

  • Virtual world-building,

  • Fighting climate change,

  • And gaining membership to IRL experiences.

The Investment Opportunity is YOU.

Did you know 80% of jobs are found through networking?

If you've wanted to get involved in Web3 but have no idea where to start, joining a DAO is a great opportunity. You'll learn new skills just by way of interacting in the DAO, while also meeting new people, and having access to information that will make you a smarter investor.

Different Types of DAOs

  • Social DAOs: used for networking, gathering people with similar interests. Ex: Friends With Benefits, LinksDAO.

  • Protocol DAOs: tokens are used as voting metrics to make protocol layer changes. Ex: MakerDAO.

  • Collector DAOs: used to fund NFT artists and projects. Ex: Fudrick, PleasrDAO.

DAOs are something we expect to see more of. They don't require a ton of financial contributions, so the risk to reward ratio is high.

Find something that interests you, find its DAO, and start learning and building.

How to Make Money on the DeGods Announcement

While crypto news is entertaining to follow, most people don't know how to use it to their advantage.

For instance, this weekend Frank DeGods announced that his two projects, DeGods and y00ts, will be leaving the Solana chain. DeGods will migrate to ETH, while y00ts will be moving to MATIC.

Just 24 hours after the announcement:

A Bearish Inversion? While DeGods FP pumped- y00ts dumped. Y00ts holders felt slighted that DeGods got big daddy ETH, while they got a side chain. On Twitter, the general sentiment about MATIC was bearish. Even though MATIC has Starbucks, Disney, and Trump Cards under their belt, they are not considered a desired chain in the NFT community, yet.

But we're not here to chit-chat on the politics of it.

The Real Alpha: while everyone is talking about DeGods, hating on Frank's decision, and arguing which chain is better.... our eyes are on the prize. We've invested in this one token as a result of the DeGods announcement.

Right now, crypto Twitter is buzzing with different opinions and takes.

Aren't you tired of the constant noise in crypto? Do you want research & information handed to you? Do you wish someone would break down concepts so you can make smart financial decisions?
