1) so you want to learn to trade options, huh? let me try to make that journey a bit easier 🤝 before we get started, it's important to dispel the myth that options trading is somehow "too complicated" or "too risky" for the average joe... this is complete nonsense! 🤡

I kyannot wait
this is going to be huge. i haven’t talked about it much bc i didn’t want to get ppl too excited while we finished polishing it and the excitement turn to fatigue, but it’s almost at the finish line. Kyan will be a stark contrast from what is seen today in the defi-options space. Portfolio margin isn’t a new feature necessarily, a couple protocols are providing margin in some way in defi-options, but Kyan will be the first to offer multi-leg strategies (upto 6 legs) w/ the ability to hedge w/ perps, all in-house under one unified system, and that’s just the start! One-click trading and a Combo/position builder that many are familiar with but with some new quality of life improvements like a “shopping cart” so u can grab positions while looking over different orderbooks, or check charts and not lose the position(s) you were interested in. There are actually a lot of ways to easily customize your positions, leg in/leg out to change strategies, and manage portfolios across multiple accounts. We put a lot of time into the design/ux of kyan, so although feature rich, it is designed to be extremely easy to navigate and use. isolated margin will be coming shortly after initial launch to provide a fuller experience for both our options and perp users. Doing this all in-house enables us to also be able to then create our own spot markets. So as you can see, Kyan is much different than previous versions of Premia. Kyan is a low latency, high performant derivatives exchange. This new experience has been over a year in the making with pro-traders and institutions in mind. Liquidity will be deep day 1 with multiple mm’s signed and an experience tailored more towards what is found on deribit, but on-chain and w/ a much cleaner ux. All this said, we haven’t forgotten about our users who aren’t looking for a traditional exchange experience and want the more “defi-native” dex experience, so we built @archetype_blue Archetype currently is a cross-chain meta aggregator w/ some pretty cool extra features enabled by Premia (and soon Kyan). We aggregate the top dex aggregators across most evm compatible networks and charge no fees to give users best execution and pricing on swaps. You can also just purchase vanilla options in a more defi-native ui, powered by Premia on the backend. Now, on @arbitrum, users can set up smart accounts to take advantage of a feature we call “price protection”. It allows you to package a call or put option for any of the supported assets with an expiration of your choosing and a strike closest to the spot price of your swap, all in a single txn by bundling the txns. we have other features planned for Archetype such as different types of aggregation and new networks, but with the launch of Kyan, we’ll be able to do cool things like package perps w/ spot swaps in a single txn too! A lot of stuff coming and im super excited for everyone to get to see it all over this next year = )

don’t forget to rename your main branch to master and delete code of conduct from your repos
Replying to @dhh
In retrospect, it's wild how much nonsense the open-source community has tolerated to avoid offending a small group of ultra-sensitive power addicts.

the quiet part is all these aml filters and checks are pushed by cexes. i have no other explanation after several of my pristine addresses got flagged as risky when off-ramping. none of them ever touched anything but airdrops, dexes or defi lending protocols. the rules are completely arbitrary and for sure they discriminate against self custody, even if it’s fully transparent.
This is a solid demonstration of Railgun's privacy pools mechanism ( papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.… ) working in practice, allowing Railgun to avoid serving proceeds of crime without using any snooping / backdoors. How it works: * Anyone can deposit into Railgun. * After you deposit, there is a 1 hour period during which various algorithms detect whether or not the deposit likely came from what the algorithms consider to be criminal activity. * If your deposit passes the filter, then after 1 hour you can use ZKPs to withdraw privately (but ideally wait longer to get a good-enough anonymity set). * If your deposit fails the filter, then you can only withdraw back to your own address. There is no risk that your funds will get frozen/seized, you just can't benefit from the privacy pool. If you disagree with Railgun's filters, anyone is free to fork and make their own pool with their own rules, though if you can't get reasonably wide public support you're going to have a tiny anonymity set. railway.xyz/

L2s can achieve a major UX improvement overnight simply by renaming "bridging" to Depositing. Depositing is such a familiar and routine thing for ppl. You deposit money to the bank. You deposit to Robinhood. You deposit to Coinbase. You deposit to Phantom. You deposit to TG bot #69. You deposit into an app. You deposit into a protocol. You deposit to Base. You deposit to Arbitrum. You deposit to Polygon. You deposit to your favourite L2. Those things are all effectively the same action. "Bridging" is not as familiar. It's indicative of travel which feels time consuming and costly. It communicates a physical barrier to the user, a rift of some kind. Nominative determinism is a thing. We can can begin improving user experience right now, without any functionality changes, by using better naming conventions.

It's hard to not play things more conservatively once you have a wife and kid depending on you But if you're still young and alone with nobody who loves you then you should absolutely be taking on more risk

welcome to the state of the art ai agent framework where in order to decide what is cringe we do very advanced ai computation that involves <checks code> looking at if it's this list of hardcoded words?

🚨 Heads up all—some dudes have a slick, new way of dropping some nasty malware. Feels infostealer-y on the surface but...its not.🫠 It'll really, deeply rekt you. Pls share this w/ your friends, devs, and multisig signers. Everyone needs to be careful + stay skeptical. 🙏

it’s inevitable imo
I still think there is an absolutely massive opportunity for someone to become Ethereum's Saylor-like figure Just relentlessly buying ETH no matter the price and then shilling ETH (and Ethereum!) endlessly to mainstream audiences I wish I had the money to do this myself 😅

Friendly reminder that Ethereum is the *only* chain that has this much client diversity and second place is not even remotely close. Ethereum is the most secure, reliable and resilient chain in existence due to the incredibly hard work of its core developers and researchers.
