tell me I’m not dreaming still… got a call at 4am my time - not about breaking news, but that I’m included in a Pulitzer finalist!! Such an honor to work with my incredible colleagues at Bloomberg on some of the most fascinating crypto stories last year
Thanks to the Pulitzer judges for naming @business a finalist in National Reporting for a series of stories about the Trump family’s crypto businesses and the conflicts they pose. Grateful to have worked with @ZekeFaux, @zachmider, @maxabelson, @a_cormier_, @MuyaoShen and others.
one of the interesting theories I learned from doing this story is from @econoar who told me that he thinks each major stock will have a one winnter memecoin pairing with it - read more from our latest: Robinhood Stock Tokens Turbocharge a New Era of Meme Trading

A few weeks after @jerallaire said the industry is leaving its wild west history behind, a new platform @papertrade_xyz said it will offer up to 1,000x leverage. @izebel_eth chatted w me briefly on why leverage and speculation still matter bloomberg.com/news/newslette…
CEO of tread @davidyjeong told me that his platform has handled $100 billion volume and about 30% of that was from DeFi exchanges like Hyperliquid. Does this mean tradfi hedge funds are coming to Hyperliquid and DeFi soon?

NEW: The biggest trading firm is so secretive it has no CEO or board of directors. Jane Street’s dominance means its leaders matter across the world, so we spent months trying to figure out who’s who. Here’s a gift link. Please read and share it

as a Brooklynite, I’m shocked to learn that a Life Time club near me already got over 6,000 people on the waitlist (opening in December). I mean what are we, Manhattan?
Happy mid-autumn festival 中秋节 to whoever celebrates!! - far from family today, but same moon, same ❤️ (tho they are probably eating better mooncakes than I am ☹️)
Wow: a Morgan Stanley staffer accidentally leaked an internal document listing IB deals the firm is pitching and monitoring in Asia... bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
headlines coming out of my home are so wild: one day it's crypto billionaire's romance with famous chinese actress (allegedly), another day it's hyrox athlete who would rather soiling herself than taking a bathroom break from the competition. ai couldn't make up stuff like this
From @TheAthletic: It was the viral moment that shocked everyone except the athlete who sparked it.
The winner of a Hyrox race who kept competing after soiling herself became last weekend’s big viral sporting moment, but it is surprisingly common. nyti.ms/4yIMKDQ
