Pokemon scalpers are getting out of hand lately
I get that people want to make money, but it's annoying seeing genuine fans struggle to find products at retail because everything gets bought up just to be resold at a crazy markup
let people enjoy Pokemon without turning every release into a business
Pushback like this usually means something is working. companies don't object to things nobody uses
And the part they'll find hardest to slow down is what happens after the stock is onchain. On base, the Mag7 machines on @makinafi already use tokenized stocks as collateral and run strategies on the borrowed usdc while holders keep the exposure
馃毃 WALL STREET IS PUSHING BACK AGAINST TOKENIZED STOCKS!
Wells Fargo, Arm and other companies are objecting to their shares being tokenized.
Meanwhile, crypto companies are pushing for 24/7 trading and faster settlement.
I think tokenization is inevitable, but it's becoming obvious that not everyone wants to move at the same speed.
$RWA is going to be one interesting sector to watch.
weather really decides what kind of day you're going to have
sunny outside and suddenly everything feels better. rain all day and you start questioning every plan you made
the interesting part is how much of the supply is already off the market
if OCG keeps building and demand picks up, there might not be many birbs available when more people start paying attention
Only 103 birbs listed & 51% of the supply is nested
Things can get real silly quick with what OCG has been cooking lately as the #1 Collectibles company in Web3
Supply shock?
losing weight is pretty simple in theory, but actually sticking to it is the hard part
calories in vs calories out, more daily steps, enough protein and consistency
you don't need a perfect diet or to stop eating the foods you enjoy. you just need a routine you can stick to long enough to see results
some days you feel like you鈥檙e making progress, other days you feel like you鈥檙e starting from zero again
just gotta keep going and trust the process
The yield on google and nvidia part is where i've been spending time
The mag7 machines on @makinafi borrow usdc against the stock on aave and run it through a strategy while you keep the exposure, and the usdc rewards on top won't be around much longer

Another busy week for @base and RWA is still one of the biggest stories.
Base is now #2 among all networks by DeFi TVL, with $6.1B locked. That鈥檚 a serious milestone.
Tokenized stocks keep expanding. Aerodrome added 20 more Coinbase Tokenized Stocks, weekend trading is seeing a median $21M in DEX volume, and new products are bringing lending, options, and yield to stocks like Google and NVIDIA.
There鈥檚 more. Base introduced Earn & Borrow, Veranta passed $700M in gold volume in 24 hours, and open interest hit a new ATH of $100M.
What I find interesting is how these pieces are starting to connect. Stocks, gold, lending, yield, and real-world assets are becoming part of the same onchain ecosystem.
I keep using Base for my ETH transactions, but there鈥檚 more and more to explore beyond that.
