Just bought a new Mac mini to set up clawd and now you want to use it for other stuff like setting up a remote coding environment? Here's a gist of what I typically do when setting up new headless machines

NEW 🚨
Massive drama going down on Hyperliquid involving $JELLY 👇
1.A trader opened a massive $6M short position on JellyJelly (a small coin, ~$20M mcap at the time).
2.This trader deliberately self-liquidated by pumping JellyJelly’s price on-chain. Essentially forcing himself out of the trade.
3.Hyperliquid was left holding the toxic short position, currently at a massive loss (-$10M+ PnL).
4.JellyJelly pumped from ~$10M market cap to $50M+ in under an hour due to the forced squeeze.
5.Hyperliquid could face full liquidation if JellyJelly reaches $150M mcap (currently ~3x away).
Market is watching closely, genuinely wild scenario unfolding live

A trader just pulled off the most galaxy brain DeFi play of 2024, forcing Hyperliquid to choose between a $12M loss or revealing their centralized controls.
The outcome? Pure chaos.
Here's how this 200 IQ move went down 🧵

Is anyone safe using DeFi?
A user on @Uniswap v3 was just sandwiched attacked out of $216k while simply trying to swap $221k USDC to USDT.
Mind you, this was a pool that had over $35m of USDC and USDT it.
This is insane.
How did it happen?
An MEV bot front-ran the tx by swapping all the USDC liquidity out.
After the transaction executed, they put back the liquidity.
The attacker tipped a block builder (bobTheBuilder) $200k and profited $8k from this transaction.
-----
A few ways to try to avoid this:
1. Reduce slippage tolerance on transactions
2. Don't use Uniswap. Use cowswap or another aggregator - which can provide better execution + prevent this malicious MEV
3. Use a custom RPC that doesn't expose your transactions publicly
-----
What is Uniswap's responsibility here?
We can't live in a world where a user executes a simple swap of $221k in a liquid stablecoin pool and gets rugged.

P.S. data team @the_defi_report is cooking. Going deep on MEV to share the economics of various chains from the ground up.
Might not be pretty.

I have never seen fast growing, revenue generating protocol valued as cheaply as what we see in the market now.
If your time horizon is longer than 3 months, many DeFi protocols are extremely undervalued relative to their listed peers now.

This is insane, VC funding is dipping below 2017-2018 levels even with so much support directly from the government on legitimizing crypto.
This is such a sad look for our industry

The cosmos defi opportunity comes from its horrendous inefficiency. Big L1 chains with 5 figs of active liquidity because it’s all out of place so you can make 3 figures apr just farming arbitrage bots

Perpetual futures are the vast majority of global crypto trading - but there has been no path to launch them in the US...until now. That’s about to change.

It's not failure that will destroy you in crypto but the unearned wealth that comes at you quick. To stay in the game long term, you really need a 'why' that is more than money or even 'success'.

Talked to a trader last night who recently pulled all funds from ByBit over security concerns.
