Newsletter #243 - Rollercoasters, Wizards & Comedy

Yo Shitcoiners,


Welcome to the latest edition of the Shitcoin.com newsletter! Not many come out of PVP season alive. If you are still with us, congratulations! You might make it through another loop of the euthanasia rollercoaster.



Sorry not sorry for kicking this off with some doom and gloom. Here’s CZ making a pizza.



Back to the doom now! Ledger spent last week in a PR nightmare. This week they are trying to recover any trust they can. Is it going well?



A reminder that NVK is doing the lord’s work.



This latest Ledger drama isn’t the only blemish on their record. You might remember when their customer data was leaked. This doesn’t sound like fun.



Viewing the full image on this next tweet is a key part of the experience.



Over in Miami, shit was getting spicy. Udi dropped some heat.



And McCormack was not a fan.



Make Bitcoin magical again!



Some people just don’t like wizards.


We don’t know about you guys, but those portion sizes (and whatever else they add in there) get our bowels moving whenever we go to the US. If you were at Bitcoin 2023 and found yourself in a similar predicament, this guy had you covered.


Arthur could have recreated his infamous face-off photo with SBF with Luke Dashjr in Miami. What a missed opportunity!



If you missed the conference this year, don’t sweat it. You might have hated it.



Meanwhile whoever is behind the @Bitcoin Twitter account switched to the wrong account. Kek.



The video content from Coinbase isn’t much better than the basketball video. We went from degeneracy to begging regulators for clarity.



And Grandpa Joe is not going to help us.



But there is some hope for the Americans among us.



While the US tries to work out what’s next politically, the co-founder of BTC-e is seeking a way out of the country (and prison).



Exchanges are a tricky business and not all make it. Hotbit is another casualty of this bear market. We can get an F in the chat.



And another F for Cyril, who wrote a whole thread about an exchange wallet.



Kyle is taking a page out of Cyril’s book and posting about things that aren’t real. What could have been…



The ben.eth controversy continues. This time, the $PSYOP head honcho got a bit excited by a Steve Aoki tweet and got his followers rinsed to the tune of $170k.



Tornado Cash did not have a good week. A malicious proposal means someone, somewhere, now has full control.



And if you had any money in there, we hope you have already pulled it out.



However, do not despair, Ameen has another privacy solution for you.



As we are getting closer to the end of the newsletter, it’s time for some comedy. If you thought you got REKT by Do Kwon, imagine being this guy.



We swiftly move to this next tweet. Animal fat all over your face is a thing.



As is buying worn-out shoes like Gabriel’s wife.



He feels unsafe!



Bear markets are a great time for learning. Here are three great books to dig into as your portfolio doesn’t move, or slowly dissipates into nothing.



We finish off with some sad news. It ain’t much, but it’s honest work.



That's all for this week. Follow Andreas on Twitter and stay up to date with us @Shitcoindotcom too. See you next time.
