Here’s your quick reminder that
- the people you follow don’t always have a real clue on the markets (watch as they flip biases weekly/daily)
- they tell you what to buy/sell but manage a smaller portfolio then you do (don’t follow them exactly, you have different risk appetites)
- OG DeFi founders don’t always invest in legit projects (most spray and pray)
- Tier 1 funds aren’t always right, they make bad bets too, as do we all. sometimes it’s bad, sometimes it’s too early to the narrative.
we're all making it up as we go, fearing the worst, hoping for the best.
Believe in something.
Read. Learn. Educate yourself.
Build your own conviction.
Not gonna ask you to “study” that’s an overused meme 😂

Interesting Blogpost From 6 years ago (2018)
I was just watching my portfolio and noticed that the amount of blood has increased quite a lot since yesterday around the same time. So I said to myself "I keep bleeding". That's when a 10 year-old earworm came back to me and started to play in my head.
That's right, it's Leona Lewis' hit song "Bleeding Love"! In the context of the crypto bloodbath, this is a little too deep and ironic.
Backpack Exchange
Unsettled. Unmoisturized. Not in their Lane. Primed. Flourishing.
The team behind Backpack/MadLads are relentlessly building and working. They've built out one of the fasting growing exchanges in the space, navigating through multiple rough patches, and recently hit 1B volume under 24 hours. They're constantly giving back value to MadLads holders and have built one of the dopest communities in the space.
Not only that, they're working on
1) an all-in-one multichain wallet
2) xNFTs (another innovation)
3) Building out the wallet extension
4) Constantly innovating and adding features to the exchange
If you aren't already on Backpack, give it a try and sign up
➡️ https://backpack.exchange/refer/kirbycrypto
Lads on top. Fock it.
Full disclosure, I'm an angel investor in Backpack, and 100% glad to support the team.

Kirby Crypto Gives Back 🍽
One of my foundational core beliefs is giving to those in need.
Having this channel helps with a somewhat wider reach to those that might be struggling.
If you have a legitimate need for resources or donations to support your family/community, please fill out the form below.
This giveaway will be up to a total of 500 USDT, which will be given to 1-3 individuals selected at my discretion from the form submissions.
It's not much, but it's something that hopefully helps!
Submit your request here: https://forms.gle/TKGT18rDmiCskxEU8
P.S. If you made losses over-leveraging, trading, or gambling, that's not considered a need 😅
P.P.S Please don't bot the form, genuine entries pls. Don't want to shift through 1000s of bot submissions to find one genuine entry.
Thank you! 😶

AO Computer Economics Update
Key points:
* Fair launch: similar to Bitcoin, everyone gets a chance to earn AO.
* Rewards for holding AR: if you held AR before June 13, you've earned some AO. You'll keep getting more every 5 minutes.
* Earn AO by bringing other cryptos (like stETH) to AO (starting June 18). This helps AO grow.
* AO can't be traded yet, but you can earn it now.
More details:
* AO tokens are limited (like Bitcoin) and will be released slowly over time.
* You can't buy AO yet, but you can check if you've earned any based on your AR holdings.
* You can bring stETH (a type of Ethereum) to AO to earn AO tokens. Your stETH stays safe on the Ethereum network.
* AO wants to be a fair system that benefits everyone involved.
Essentially:
* Hold AR to earn AO.
* Bring stETH to AO starting June 18 to earn AO.
Check out the AO article: https://mirror.xyz/0x1EE4bE8670E8Bd7E9E2E366F530467030BE4C840/-UWra0q0KWecSpgg2-c37dbZ0lnOMEScEEkabVm9qaQ
