๐Ÿšจ SPACEX: THE BIGGEST EXIT LIQUIDITY IN HISTORY SpaceX is up 70% from IPO. Everyone is FOMOing hard. But almost nobody is talking about the real reason. Only 4% of shares are available to the public. A normal public company can have over 80% available. When only 4% of supply is available, price becomes easy to push. This is the same setup we see in crypto. Tokens like LAB and RAVE use tiny float and huge locked supply. The team controls almost everything. Only a small amount reaches the market. Then scarcity pumps the chart. SpaceX is doing the same thing on a much bigger scale. And now look at who is forced to buy. $SPCX was added to MSCI indexes very quickly. That means passive funds now have to buy it. Not because they believe in Elon Musk. Because their mandate follows the index. Now connect the dots. โ†’ Massive forced demand โ†’ Only 4% of shares available โ†’ Almost no real liquidity โ†’ Price can pump HARD But the real supply is still locked. And the unlock schedule starts much earlier than people think. โ†’ First 20% after Q2 earnings โ†’ Another 7% after 70 days โ†’ Another 7% after 90 days โ†’ Another 7% after 105 days โ†’ Another 7% after 120 days โ†’ Another 7% after 135 days โ†’ Another 28% after Q3 earnings โ†’ The rest after 180 days That means early investors can start exiting in 1 to 2 months. And who will they sell to? Retail chasing the hype. Passive funds forced into the stock. Keep the float tiny. Force funds to buy. Pump the valuation toward $2 TRILLION. Then open the insider exit door. Crypto does this with low float tokens. Wall Street does it with IPOs. Different market. Same trap. Most people are watching the SpaceX dream. Iโ€™m watching who buys now and who sells later. The last buyer always pays for the dream. Reminder: Iโ€™ve called all the market tops and bottoms for the last 15 years, including the Bitcoin bottom at $16,000 and the top at $126,000. The next call will be even more important. When I exit the markets completely, Iโ€™ll post it here publicly like I always do. Turn notifications on. If youโ€™re not following yet, youโ€™ll understand why that was a mistake later.

ใ€๐Ÿ“ขIGLive: dunknatachai ใ€‘ #dunknatachai #dunkdunk summary about NAVORI ๐ŸŒป- itโ€™s already today the 17th thereโ€™s something iโ€™m really excited about cause iโ€™ve put a lot of effort into it. Right now theyโ€™re already setting up the storeโ€”the kiosk that Dunk designed myself. i just want to tell everyone that weโ€™ll definitely see each other tomorrow. definitely Iitโ€™s the very first day and Dunk donโ€™t want to miss it. even though i have an outing and even though iโ€™m still on that outing right now my heart is already at the Navori pop-up booth. the pop-up booth you knowโ€”the one iโ€™ve been planning and working on. so i think iโ€™ll stop by in the evening around 6:00โ€“6:30pm or so. you can come meet me there. itโ€™s at Central Chidlom on the 2nd floor! itโ€™s located along the walkway between Chidlom and Embassy right in the middle. the area is called Marketplace. we can meet right there along the connecting walkway. you can search for it on google maps. itโ€™s the Navori booth - the booth has a very cute and colorful design and itโ€™s a kiosk that i personally designed and put a lot of care into. so iโ€™d really love for everyone to come and support it tomorrow. weโ€™ll see each other in the evening. and if youโ€™d like to know what new menu items Navori is launching you can stop by as early as the morning. the booth opens from the morning and you can go check it out - reserve items buy them - try them and review them before anyone else. cause tomorrow there will be exclusive menu items available only at Central Chidlom. iโ€™ve added so many of them. i actually bought one today and itโ€™s the Uber Drink. there will be another Uber Drink as well but this one is the latte version. as for the other Uber Drink itโ€™s going to be a secret. youโ€™ll find out tomorrow. iโ€™m honestly super excited about the Uber Drink cause this is the first time Navori has ever made a beverage. normally we have pastries and mooncake-style treats to eat right? but sometimes if you donโ€™t have a drink afterward your throat can get a little dry even though the snacks are delicious. so weโ€™ve added drinks now. i want everyone to enjoy the pastries and when your throat gets just a tiny bit dry you can take a sip of the Uber Latte alongside them. tomorrow iโ€™ll reveal another menu item too. iโ€™ll be announcing one more drink and itโ€™s also part of the Uber line. and as for the pastries i can tell you this muchโ€”there will be new flavors tomorrow. aboutโ€ฆ 8 flavors in total. iโ€™m getting excited already. and there will also be one brand-new special flavor as well. am i giving away too much? Is it not a surprise anymore? letโ€™s leave it at that. there will be lots of brand-new additions tomorrow. things so new that nobody has ever tried them before. of course nobody has tried themโ€”they havenโ€™t even been released yet. anyway i โ€™d love for everyone to come and give them a try

Marvin Minsky, the MIT scientist who founded AI: "Citadel pays PhDs $500K to find the perfect equation. The market doesn't have one. It's beaten by a swarm of dumb agents, the exact design Marvin Minsky said your brain runs on." the thread above is about swarm intelligence, letting a crowd of simple agents search the ugly, shifting landscape of a market that no clean equation can solve. minsky's entire life's work says that isn't a hack. it is how intelligence itself is built. he proved you don't need a smart central solver. you need many mindless specialists, each doing one tiny job, none understanding the whole. connect enough of them and something intelligent emerges from parts that are individually dumb. a market is exactly that: millions of simple agents, no one in charge, collectively solving a problem none of them can see. that is why the swarm beats the elegant math. a single closed-form equation assumes a clean, stable world. the market is nonlinear, non-stationary, full of traps. a swarm doesn't need to understand the landscape, it explores it from a thousand angles at once and can't get permanently stuck where one clever model would. minsky saw this in the mind decades before quants borrowed it for markets. he taught it at MIT, for free, in this lecture. same story i keep telling: the "new" AI idea running the funds is an old idea in a new wrapper. here is what the thread underplays, and minsky knew it. a swarm is only as good as how its agents are wired and rewarded. connect them wrong and a thousand dumb agents don't become a genius, they become expensive noise that overfits and blows up. the swarm is free. the architecture, knowing how to connect and constrain the agents, is the entire edge.

Some really thought-provoking insights on the Chinese and US economy here by Louis-Vincent Gave, the CEO of Gavekal. For instance he explains why the stock market is really not that important in China, especially when compared with the US. This is because the Chinese economy is really not that financialized and only a tiny proportion of the Chinese, 10%, hold stocks as opposed to 70% of Americans: "So if tomorrow the US stock market goes down two-thirds, 70% of people feel very poor. In China, if the stock market goes down two-thirds, 90% of people don't care." He also pinpoints a fascinating paradox, which is that there is much more competition between firms in the Chinese market, and many more bankruptcies than in the US: "I can name you 10 Chinese bankruptcies over the past three or four years of automakers, solar panel manufacturers, real estate developers, etc. Here we are in the Western world, whether in France, in the UK, in the US, and we pat ourselves on the back about how capitalist we are, about how we're red-blooded capitalists, etc. Yet when was the last big bankruptcy? Are we capitalist if nobody ever goes bust? How does that work? How does capitalism work without bankruptcy?" As he explains, the way the Chinese economy works is that there is stronger management of the market by the government but this paradoxically leads to a situation where the market works more dynamically in creating new companies, as well as destroying companies that don't work anymore. Whereas in the US, where it is arguably the reverse situation with capital having more control of the government, monopolies are being created in most sectors and companies are bailed out by the government in myriads of ways to avoid bankruptcy. So interestingly we're arriving at a situation where "communist China" might be today the best example of free-market 'creative destruction,' whilst the "capitalist U.S." seems to be calcifying into a form of corporate protectionism where big corporations are increasingly insulated from failure. This really raises fascinating questions on the role of government with regards to the economy... It sort of makes sense when you think about it that when you effectively let capital regulate itself, they'd want to move towards a situation where they can't lose and establish monopolies. And that you paradoxically need a strong referee above capital in order to foster a truly dynamic economic system.

Generative AI is a Psy-op to Keep the Poor Dumb The growing mass reliance on Artificial Intelligence (AI) is not accidental. It is a deliberate effort driven by a few wealthy Silicon Valley capitalists to commoditise โ€œintelligenceโ€ and convince people to adopt it in exchange for their real-life problem-solving abilities, critical thinking and cultural authenticity. The ultimate goal as always, is to enrich this already super-wealthy tech elite at the expense of everyone else. Tellingly, while these billionaire tech oligarchs spend billions to convince consumers to adopt and become dependent on โ€œAIโ€ solutions, they are also doubling down on the primacy of human intelligence in their elite bubbles. This was illustrated by luxury car brand Porsche, which recently released an advert whose messaging conspicuously signalled that it used exclusively human-created content. This is a clear sign of a sharp divide between the wealthy and everyday people on the question of AI adoption. While the working classes are heavily influenced to buy into the idea that generative AI platforms like ChatGPT, Suno, and VEO-3 represent the future of work, research, and art, luxury brands meant for the elite are concurrently reassuring their market that human craftsmanship, critical thinking, and genuine creativity remains central to their vision. โ€œAI for thee, not for meโ€ appears to be the message. Across Africa, multiple Western state and NGO actors are pushing for this so-called โ€œAI revolutionโ€ to take a central place in African educational systems. Even in some parts of the continent where basic access to electricity remains a challenge, governments are being feverishly lobbied to adopt โ€œAI strategiesโ€ for their under-resourced educational systems. At the very same time, it has been reported that Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and other Silicon Valley billionaires who are pushing AI adoption, not only enroll their children in Montessori schools but also restrict their exposure and access to the very same technology that their lobbyists are trying to push into African classrooms. The obvious danger in opening African education systems up to the so-called โ€œAI Revolutionโ€ is that the next generation of Africans could end up devoid of the exact reading, writing, critical reasoning and creative skills that Africa needs to fully take its place in the world - instead trained from an early age to be reliant on ChatGPT, Grok, Suno, Nano Banana, and VEO-3 to do their thinking and expression for them. At a time when high-level human thinking is needed more than ever on the continent, it is no accident that Western lobbyists are heavily pushing the normalisation of generative AI as a core pillar of African education. If Africa is to be maintained as a colonial resource plantation and a market for excess overseas production, young Africans must be made to read, write and think less, and consume more. In Africa and elsewhere, the constant global dynamic is that the poor and underprivileged are encouraged to outsource their intellectual processes to AI in order to โ€œstay competitive," while the wealthy quietly protect the disciplines that actually sharpen the mind: reading, writing, artistry, and critical thinking. Africans must see the โ€œAI Revolutionโ€ for what it is. Far from just benign or neutral technological advancement, it is yet another manifestation of power consolidation by Western racial-capitalists. This class of people understands very well that literacy, philosophy, and art produce power, while delegation of thought only produces ignorance and compliance. Despite whatever message they put out, the reality remains that thinking for yourself will in fact, never be โ€œdisrupted.โ€

Peter Thiel literally delivered a full semester of Stanford lectures that explain how to build a business nobody can compete with better than any business school: 1. If you want to build a great company, aim to be the only one who does what you do. Thiel's entire philosophy comes down to one line. "If you're starting a company, you always want to aim for monopoly and you always want to avoid competition. Competition is for losers." Most founders are proud of being in a big competitive market. Thiel says that's backwards. The businesses worth building are the ones where you have no real rivals, because those are the only ones that actually make money over time. 2. Creating value and capturing value are two completely different things. "A valuable company creates X dollars of value for the world, and captures Y percent of X." The mistake people make is assuming these two numbers move together. They don't. You can build something enormously valuable to the world and capture almost none of it. The airline industry moves millions of people and barely makes a profit. Google moves information and keeps a fortune. Being important is not the same as being profitable. 3. Both winners and losers lie about what business they're really in. Thiel says companies distort the truth in opposite directions. A company with no real edge describes its market as tiny and specific to sound special. "We're the only British food restaurant in Palo Alto." Meanwhile a company that dominates does the opposite and pretends it has loads of competition to avoid attention. 4. Google is the perfect example of hiding a dominant position. Google runs the vast majority of internet search. But it never calls itself a search company. "Google describes itself as a technology company." It talks about self-driving cars, phones, and the huge global advertising market where it looks small. By defining its market as broadly as possible, it makes a dominant position look modest and avoids scrutiny. 5. Humans copy each other, and it makes us do insane things. This is the deepest part of the talk. Thiel argues people are naturally imitative, like a herd. We want things mainly because other people want them. "It's not that there's wisdom in crowds. When lots of people are trying to do something, that is often proof of insanity." The fact that everyone is chasing something is not evidence it's a good idea. It's often evidence it's a terrible one. 6. Twenty thousand people move to Los Angeles every year to become film stars. About twenty make it. That's his example of the herd instinct destroying people. Everyone piles into the same brutally competitive game because it looks glamorous, and almost all of them lose. The lesson for founders is to be deeply suspicious of any path where huge numbers of people are all chasing the exact same prize. The crowd is not a signal of opportunity. It's a warning. 7. Be suspicious of any business described as two buzzwords crossed together. Thiel mocks the way bad startups pitch themselves. You take a few trendy words, mobile, social, sharing, and mash them into a story. He compares it to a Hollywood pitch that crosses two random movies. "The something of somewhere is really mostly just the nothing of nowhere. Like the Stanford of North Dakota." One of a kind, sure. But it's not Stanford. If a business only sounds unique because it combines categories, it usually isn't. 8. The counterintuitive secret is to start with a tiny market. Everyone thinks you should chase a giant market on day one. Thiel says that's a mistake. "The perfect target market for a startup is a small group of particular people concentrated together and served by few or no competitors." Dominate something tiny first. Own it completely. Then expand outward from a position of strength. 9. PayPal and Facebook both started absurdly small. PayPal didn't try to serve everyone. It started with around 20,000 eBay power sellers and captured a quarter of them within months. Facebook launched to 10,000 Harvard students and took 60% of them in ten days. Amazon started by selling nothing but books. Every one of these companies looked laughably small at the start, which is exactly why it worked. There was no competition in the tiny market they chose. 10. A giant market on day one is a red flag, not a green one. "It's always a red flag when someone talks about getting 1% of a $100 billion market." A huge market means one of two things. Either the category is badly defined, or the competition is so fierce that nobody makes money. Thiel points to the clean energy bubble, where dozens of companies all chased enormous markets and almost all of them went bankrupt. Small and dominant beats big and crowded every single time. He gave this talk in 2014 as part of Stanford's "How to Start a Startup" course. It became the foundation of his bestselling book Zero to One, and it remains the clearest explanation anyone has given of why most startups fail and a rare few become worth billions. Here's the thing though.... Thiel's ideas spread across the world because they were recorded, published, and shared. A single Stanford lecture turned into a book that sold millions and a philosophy that founders still quote a decade later. The ideas were brilliant. The distribution made them legendary. We build massive distribution and grow personal brands on X and beyond without our clients lifting a finger. If you're a founder or VC looking for that kind of exposure, book a call below. We average 1.5M views a week.

$MONG OVERVIEW Intro: $MONG was the first meme community created by anti-crypto US Congressman Brad Sherman in one of the funniest speeches of all time. $MONG represents a meme-centric, pro-crypto movement in direct irony with Bradโ€™s views. History: The MONG community formed in late 2021 after Bradโ€™s hilarious congressional speech. The community grew exponentially and drew tons of attention across the web3 industry. Around this time, an established NFT company called META COLLECT decided to get involved and released MONGS NFT. The NFTs were an instant success, minting out in 16 minutes. Unfortunately, the original token the community rallied around was rugged by an anonymous dev who has since done the same to hundreds of other tokens. Instead of completely disbanding, the community rallied around Meta Collect and the NFTs. Meta Collect continued to work through the crypto bear market in 2022 & 2023 to bring value to holders, with plans to re-launch $MONG, this time supported by a doxed and reputable team. In mid-2023 they launched $MONG, which was an immediate success running up to a $240 million mc, second to only $PEPE in a mini-bull market. Bear market conditions followed market-wide, but the team and community kept working despite the usual fud due to prices decreasing. Over the past few months, significant development has occurred and $MONG is primed for a massive run in the next major bull market. Mongs NFTs(MONGS NFT): The NFTs were released nearly two years ago and have done over 2,300 ETH in volume on OpenSea. The release was a resounding success as they were minted out in 16 minutes in an extremely fair launch. Everyone who wanted to participate could โ€“ no gas wars, no doing backflips for a whitelist spot, and a low mint price. The NFTs pair perfectly with the MONG meme, including; crypto coins, hamsters, cobras, mongress backgrounds, and much more. They are genuinely on-theme and are a collector's dream with numerous, recognizable rare traits. The NFTs are a vital part of the MONG ecosystem and will be incorporated into Kudoe (KDOE) web3 game. There have also been multiple coin claims for NFT holders with plenty more coming. Credit to Jon Trafford for the excellent artwork on these! Mong Ordinals: The team was ahead of the curve on Bitcoin Ordinals and inscribed a collection of 420 Royal Mongs under 100k inscriptions! Check them out here: MONG X Spaces: Run by the best spacehost in web3 Rep. Ryan. Every week multiple official and non-official spaces drive excellent community engagement, especially considering weโ€™re still in somewhat of a bear market. Thereโ€™s a weekly AMA space where all updates are discussed and anyone can ask questions with @toolegitcypto, one of the founders. There are also numerous collab spaces with other exciting projects. Meta Collect: The team behind the entire MONG ecosystem, check them out here: They have an awesome IRL NFT art gallery. MONG Swap โ€“ powered by $COBRA: Safe and easy DEX, especially for those new to web3. Only well-intentioned projects are hard-coded into the swap. No more copying/pasting complicated contract addresses. Check it out here: MONG Pairs: The mong community is filled with talented individuals capable of starting their own projects paired with MONG. They are all easily acquired via Mong Swap. More projects will be added soon; hereโ€™s a brief list of current pairs/partners. $COBRA โ€“ Utility token for Mong Swap $HAMSTR โ€“ Degeneracy, community, NFTs $CONG โ€“ MONG community coin and DAO with a pro-crypto mission $CMON โ€“ Web 3 Casino, poker events. $KDOE โ€“ Web 3 Gaming $MING โ€“ Staking, scaling, NFTs MONG Anthem: Incredible meme anthem created by the talented 1MPROV.

Steve Jobs explaining the NeXT team about their target customers and product distribution (1991): "For a long time, we had a very hard time figuring out exactly who our customer was. We were oscillating between two identities: were we a more powerful PC, or were we an easier-to-use workstation? Then we had a revelation: the workstation marketplace is actually two markets. There is the traditional half, science and engineering, and a new, emerging half we call the professional market. These are professionals who aren't scientists but want the power of a workstation for things like publishing, medical applications, and database-driven tasks. This professional market is growing at an incredible rate, it is expected to double this year and triple next year. We can dominate this segment. Our customers are coming from two places: 1. PC and Mac owners who realize they need more sophisticated networking and development environments. 2. Mainframe users who want to move their applications to the desktop for better user interfaces and better economics. Currently, Sun Microsystems is our major competitor with an 80% share of this segment. While Sun helps us by spending money to "educate" the market on why they need a workstation, the minute a customer makes that choice, Sun and NeXT are mortal enemies. We have three primary weapons to beat Sun: 1. Custom Applications: Every customer has one "mission-critical" app they need to write. Our development environment, NextStep, is vastly superior; it allows technical people to build these custom applications three times faster than they can on a Sun. 2. Great Productivity Apps: We have a suite of breakthrough productivity applications, like Lotus Improv, that dwarfs what is available on Sun systems. 3. Interpersonal Computing: This is the use of sophisticated networking and multimedia to improve group productivity and collaboration. While we have to educate customers on this now, within 24 months, it will be the number one reason people buy our computers. Our goal is to make it so that everyone considering a Sun system calls us. In the last 90 days, weโ€™ve gone head-to-head with Sun 15 times and weโ€™ve won 15 out of 15. We are going to continue to listen to our customers and refine our position to dominate this new professional workstation market."

PRESS STATEMENT In the last 24 hours, social media has exploded over my interview with Mehdi Hassan, albeit with varied opinions. Let me set the record straight. When I signed on to the privileged job granted to me by Mr. President, I was well aware of its implications. Selling ice cream, looking fine, and seeking the praises of men were never part of it. Some of the fiercest critics of my interview can not even stand local TV anchors. But the task of promoting and defending the President and his administration is what I do with ease and joy. I am prepared to appear before any interviewer, anywhere in the world, any day and at any time, to defend this government and its policies. I have never, and will never, subscribe to ducking or dodging interviews on matters that concern promoting and defending the administration I was appointed to serve. It is the least of what is required of me. Head to Head contacted me requesting an interview, stating that they wanted to challenge our government on security, the economy, and corruption. Nowhere in our almost six months of communication did they mention that they were going to challenge my past. If that had been their plan, ethically and professionally, they were supposed to inform me so I could prepare my response. But thatโ€™s okay, ethically, that is on them, not on me. I refused to swallow the pill of Mehdiโ€™s โ€œopposition research-style journalism,โ€ and even today, if you carefully compare what he read as quotes from organisations and groups, you will see that many were inaccurate and some were outright fake news. But I will leave that for another day. As for what I said about President Tinubu in the past, I am glad those were things I said when I was in the opposition saddle with such zeal. It is all politics. Half of Donald Trumpโ€™s cabinet is made up of people who once spoke against him, and quite a number of people in our own cabinet also spoke against President Tinubu in the past. Those things do not bother him if you care to know. The majority of the naysayers are members of the opposition and their sympathisers. It does not bother me one bit. Their temporary excitement over the interview has not lasted and will not last, because it does not take away their obvious problem of lack of vision, mission in conducting and managing a political party; yet they seek to manage Nigeria. Clearly they have no path to victory and no alternative policies or program for the Nigerian people. And if they say they do, they can as well go to head to head and be interrogated on that; as the saying in Hausa goes โ€œGa fili Ga dokiโ€ I conclude by thanking the many Nigerians and non-Nigerians who sent in their commendations over my brave defence of our government in an interview where the anchor would hardly let you answer a question unless it suited his narrative. I still have admiration and respect for Mehdi Hassan as arguably the best debater on the planet. I look forward to part two of the Head to Head interview, and I am glad that by then questions about my past will no longer be news so that we can focus on our administrationโ€™s policies, programs and what we have achieved so far. Stay tuned. โ€“ D.H Bwala Special Adviser to President on Media and Policy Communication (State House) Saturday March 7, 2026
