Seeking Sigma

THE BLUE PILL

NFTs are getting some REAL utility LFG. I can finally tell my mom the jpegs that are the reason I can't make rent will be delivering me some MAJOR moola 😎. Well at least a few discounts at selected retailers...

AssetDash is a platform that gives various promotions and deals to owners of certain NFT collections such as DeGods, Bored Ape Yacht Club, and Cryptopunks! These perks include Apple gift cards, discounts to Nike, Telegram Premium, and Discord Nitro.

Users just need to paste their wallet address, browse deals through their account, and claim rewards based on the collections they own. Merchants on Shopify and other e-commerce websites can also integrate with AssetDash to list their products and promotions as rewards to holders of certain NFT collections.

Well if I ever manage to get my hands on a $100k monke NFT then at least I'll have Headspace premium for free 🤑

CRYPTOPILLZ

🌐 Here's everything you need to know about the Ethereum Merge that's happening today moving the chain from proof of work to proof of stake.

🦜 If you need any more evidence that birds are going to take over the world, cockatoos have learnt how to open trash bins in Australia.

🤡 Bird app was caught lacking again when a fake Vitalik account managed to get hundreds of thousands of followers with a free Eth scam... smh

THE RED PILL

We recently stumbled across the Value Investors Club which is an exclusive forum for some of the greatest minds in stock picking. In fact Michael Burry, famed investor and profiteer of the 2008 financial crises played by Christian Bale in The Big Short, gained his initial notoriety as a medical student posting on the forum.

Anyone can browse posts but they will be 90 days delayed. If you sign up for the forum you'll get access to 45 days delayed posts LFG. If you want that delicious instant access you'll have to submit an online application that includes a favorite current investment pick.

Many popular investors such as Burry, Mohnish Pabrai, and Joel Greenblatt have posted on the site.

I'm almost certain I'll be permanently banned from the forum after I suggest a leveraged position in the esteemed asset class that is CryptoDickButts 😎
