Click here for our Fear & Greed Index]( DOGECOIN TURNS 10 YEARS OLD!ð [First things first](⦠ðµGo go go go go go ⦠go shorty, itâs your birthday. We gonâ party like itâs your birthday. We gon' sip Whole Milk like it's your birthdayðµ What a classic. Anywaysâ¦Â 10 years ago, two crypto nerds (Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer) had a dream and a meme. - The dream: make crypto fun. - The meme: [this]( famous âdogeâ meme of a Shiba Inu. On December 6th, 2013 they combined the two and launched cryptoâs first âmemecoinâ⦠[Dogecoin](. This is what the first version of it looked like:
[Source: @BillyM2K]( Simple interface. Less than 10 buttons. Comic Sans text. Big ass logo, randomly placed⦠itâs beautiful :â) Within 2 weeks, Dogecoinâs price was up 300% and had more transactions per day than [Bitcoin](. Within a month, Dogecoin.com had 1M+ unique website visitors. And at one point, it had more trading volume than all other cryptocurrencies⦠combined. Fast forward to today, Dogecoin⦠- Has a $13.8B market cap. - Is the 9th largest cryptocurrency. - Can be used for tipping on social media platforms (i.e Twitch, Reddit), buying tickets (i.e. AMC Theaters, Dallas Mavericks games), and purchasing items at retail stores (i.e. Gamestop, etc.). Incredible. The lesson: all you need is a meme and a dream. [WHATâS THE MOST CAPITAL EFFICIENT WAY TO LP?]( Liquidity is what keeps the world of DeFi running. It allows protocols to function efficiently, and brings providers sweet rewards. But all liquidity provided is not created equal. And [one name]( is starting to gain some serious traction. [Dopexâs]( recent launch of The Concentrated Liquidity Automated Market Maker (CLAMM) brings a unique approach to the world of liquidity provision. Trading venues are not created equal either. Traders are flocking to Dopex to access deep liquidity and some of the cheapest option premiums on the market. In less than a month since launch theyâve seen: - $30M of trading volume - $2.5 M in TVL from liquidity providers - The top trader made ~$27K in realized profit over the last 3 weeks - Cheapest option premiums on BTC/ARB/ETH options When you add in the ability to exercise your options at any time (American-style), the ability to capitalize on short term opportunities canât be missed. [Try it out while APRs are still in the triple digits!]( USE CASE OF THE DAY: JACK HARLOW AND ON-CHAIN TICKETS ðï¸ Jack Harlow is one of the hottest rappers in the game. Milky Fact of the Day: Heâs had a #1 Billboard hit, three years in a row. (Drake and Taylor Swift are the only other ones to do that). Well, turns out that Jack is also a big fan of the blockchain. - Harlow partnered with MITH (a creator platform) and tokenproof (a web3 infrastructure company) to launch on-chain tickets for his mini-tour in Kentucky. - Fans scan their tickets via a QR code and, in return, get a âproof of attendanceâ at the shows they attend. - In the future, this can be used for fan interactions and rewards (i.e. merch, collectibles, etc.). Hereâs what it looks like in actionâ¦
[Source: @OnlywithMITH]( Btw, this is the oleâ crypto mullet strategy: - Normal in the front - interface is something people are used to (i.e. tickets, QR codes, etc.). - Funky in the back - put all the complex web3 technical stuff in the back, far away from the user. Smart. Weâll be keeping a close eye on this to see how well it performs. JAMIE DIMON CALLS OUT CRYPTO (AGAIN) ð£ï¸ Jamie Dimon isâ¦Â - A billionaire. - The CEO of JPMorgan. - A (long time) crypto hater. Heâs what we call, an American Gangster Bankster. And Jamie testified at a Senate Banking Committee hearing yesterday to talk about his favorite subject⦠crypto. Hereâs what [he had to say](:
[Source: @YahooFinance]( Hmm. Wait a minuteâ¦money laundering, drug trafficking, aiding criminals, violating banking regulationsâ¦*checks notes*... These are all things JPMorgan has been accused of doing! - Drug trafficking: Back in 2019, a ship owned by JPMorgan was seized after U.S. authorities found ~40,000 pounds of cocaine (worth $1.3B) on it. - Violating regulations: JPMorgan was hit with $200M in fines for letting employees use WhatsApp to evade regulators. - Fraud: JPMorgan paid a $920M settlement fee in connection with schemes to defraud precious metals and U.S. Treasuries markets. Since 2000, JPMorgan has paid ~$39.3B in penalties. I repeat, 39 BILLION U.S. DOLLARS. Talk about the irony. Jamie needs to check himself before he rekts himself.
