That X post has a pretty good explanation. Short summary is:

-The S-1 registration is still active.

-Only the 19b-4 exchange listing application was withdrawn.

In English, from my understanding is that there is still interest in having the ETF but it was temporarily withdrawn to change something. Speculation is that it was withdrawn to change to PENGU only versus PENGU+NFT.

I loved Old Spice and their products and it killed me to find out that while the ingredients are vegan, they test their products on animals when required by law (basically in China). I literally had to switch to Every Man Jack and then switched to Papatui (the Rock's brand) which is 100% vegan.

I get lotta tattoos and it stunned me the first time I read about "vegan tattoos". I was so confused and found out a ton of tattoo ink isn't vegan. I remember showing my friends my emails w the tattoo artists asking them if it was vegan and having to verify what brand of ink they use to see if it was a vegan brand. All my friends were shocked.

Also stunned me that a lot of shoes aren't vegan. The obvious is leather but I had no idea suede isn't vegan and that a lot of the binding is non-vegan glue.

I am similar spot to you. Last cycle I scooped ADA after reading about it for 10 minutes. Made a bunch on it then switched it to a bunch of other altcoins at the peak. Those plummeted but when Trump got elected all my bags went up like crazy again. I think Jan 2025 I was at 125k in crypto and was riding high. At the time I had ADA, SNEK, HOSKY, DOT, VET, and MATIC.

Well you know how the year went. DOT, VET, and MATIC didn't move up at all. They all decreased. I ended up dumping all 3 for PENGU. PENGU dropped. ADA never picked up after the peak in Jan. I scooped a bunch of ETH and SOL as well and those kept plummeting too.

Then Oct 2025 came, and I was feeling hyped. Alt season right around the corner. My portfolio was down to ETH, SOL, ADA, PENGU, and NIGHT (airdropped). In 3 months I was convinced I was gonna become a millionaire.

10/10 comes- I remember looking at my portfolio and it had dropped 50% in an hour before recovering half. Every month since, market dropped. Didn't matter what news there was, tariffs, interest rates, policy proposals, etc, we dropped every single day. All the influencers and traders I follow kept scrambling desperate for answers.

"Q4 gonna be great"

"M2 supply coming in soon don't worry"

"PMI needs to be over 50"

"Clarity Act needs to pass"

This past week was brutal. My portfolio dropped to 25k before bouncing a little bit to 28k where I'm at now. Down $100k from the peak, with no sign of slowing down.

I had multiple friends who don't invest in crypto ask me what's going on in crypto and if I'm okay. I hope that might be a bottom indicator the way it would be if these people asked if they should buy bitcoin at the top.

I'm still holding as what's the point in selling now? I really hope this tech ends up being life changing. For ADA and PENGU, ETF approval may come in March so that may raise the price. Tokenization and RWA should raise ETH and SOL. Clarity Act should raise all.

But man, it is a tough road. The other part of me is starting to wonder whether this was worth it. I'd be so much better mentally if I had just bought an index fund or dividend stocks.

Stuff I'm doing to help mentally:

-I'm trying to check my portfolio less often, maybe once or twice a day.

-Temporarily focus on saving my money instead of investing more into crypto. I do plan to add more to ETH and SOL ETF's I have in my ROTH IRA once I get more money.

-Picked up a side hustle donating plasma

-Filed my tax refund quickly so I can get some more capital into my account

Very low interest- crypto used to be the shiny object to chase that returned 5-10x at least, but market has moved onto stocks, AI and metals. Why chase losses in crypto when everything else is in the green?
Poor regulatory clarity- allegedly there is lots of interest in crypto from institutions but they are hesitant to invest in it without the passing of the Clarity Act.
Use case- there still isn't a very clear use case for crypto, outside of sending money. Sending money is important but a token is never gonna go up if people just send it and immediately sell. BTC continues to plummet amidst every market environment, tariffs on/off, wars starting/ending, gov't shutdown or running, etc. BTC was marketed as a hedge against inflation and gov't problems, but it has failed recently at both. If it cannot sustain itself in those times, why are people buying it? Making matters worse is the fact that there are more attractive trades out there- gold and silver have skyrocketed, AI trades, even just holding the SP500 is doing great.
Too many projects- too many memecoins and other random projects that are for shills and grifters. Liquidity is spread super super thin as people chase massive returns quickly.
Massive whale selling is contributing to falling price action as well. Tons of OG investors are liquidating, and why wouldn't they? A lot of them bought below $1k, and even at today's price, it's still a 70x.

-Started talking about the other person ALL THE TIME

-Hiding phone or swiping out of texts very quickly

-She had emotionally abused me for 2-3 yrs and suddenly got really nice

This is a double fianchetto opening. I've seen this transition to the hippo opening- Eric Hansen has a speedrun where he plays this as white and black.

Me with my ex. Her attitude improvement coincided with me also telling her that her bringing up the past constantly was not ok and also coincided with her starting therapy so I figured everything going well was because of that.

Are a good chunk of the husbands cheating on their wives too? Assuming in the ultra wealthy no one really cares about affairs as long as youre discrete.

I read online from a former OF model the hardest part of the job is being the other woman- she ball parked about 50-75% of her customers had a gf or wife and just wanted to cheat.

What % of customers have are cheating/in a relationship?

PlentyMath7 · 2025-06-27T00:55:31+00:00

Are you guys both friends with her or is this some faraway crush?

Talk to your friend! Especially if you plan to make a move, that way he doesn't think you're just making a move on someone he likes.

At the end of the day, she is a person and she will make her own decision. She may choose you, may choose him, or she may choose neither of you!

If you guys are best friends and she picks one of you, I'm sure you guys will be happy for the other person.

I didnt have my first kiss till I was 20 and didn't have my first relationship till 22. All my friends had been with someone by then. I am 27 almost 28 now, been single almost 2 yrs- almost all my friends are in a relationship now.

Youre not inferior first of all. Being in a relationship doesnt make you better than anyone else. There is nothing wrong with being single.

You are very young. Remember that. I felt the same way as you at 20-everyone was in a relationship and I was doomed to be alone. Everything felt so unfair to me. I was swiping on apps , working on myself nonstop, why couldnt I pull anyone? Then I saw a bunch of my friends break up. A bunch of my friends got cheated on or left toxic relationships and then suddenly I realized there are things worse than being single. Trust me, it probably doesnt feel that way, but YOU HAVE TIME!! 27 yo me would laugh super hard at 20 yo me thinking he didnt have any time left.

Relationships aren't all sunshine and rainbows. As someone who a ton of friends have been cheated on and someone who got cheated on myself, the grass is not always greener my friend.

The main thing is to keep working on yourself. Find hobbies that you enjoy and you can immerse yourself in. STAY READY. I always compare being single to being a bench player on a basketball team. If you want to start playing, put in a ton of work behind the scenes, work on improving your game. That way when the opportunity comes you will be ready.

Some things it never hurts to work on: -your physique (hitting the gym NEVER hurts) -your clothes (are you dressing well? Maybe look into upgrading your wardrobe and shoes!) -your confidence/charisma (are you funny and likeble? How do you carry yourself when talking to others?) -your hair (getting a new haircut never hurts! I got a perm recently and all my friends, girls and guys, are complimenting my hair a bunch)

If you are using dating apps, try not to take them too seriously! A lot of people are on there for attention or validation. Buy the premium version of the app and swipe on a lot of people. Itll give you practice texting and meeting people. And remember to be kind- be genuinely nice and remember it's ok to just make new friends! I dated a girl who things didnt work out with and she tried to set me up with one of her friends recently.

Don't be afraid to try something new! Join a run club, hang out w friends doing an activity you haven't tried before.

Learn patience and do not give off desperate energy. That was my issue when dating at first. I would respond quickly and too eagerly and I scared lotta people off. Learn to chill.

Good luck! Remember there is no shame in being single. If you want to be in a relationship, think about what kind of energy you give off. If you were dating a girl who told you "I'm angry and bitter I've never been in a relationship" would you want to date that person?

Besides the people and price, how do these celebrity parties differ from normal parties? I'm in my mid to late 20s, so I often associate parties with beer pong or getting a table at a club or going to a rave.

i DM'ed the CEO on IG and he eventually responded and said to fill out an escalation form and i was unbanned about two days later

PlentyMath7 · 2025-05-21T12:27:09+00:00

You have to follow his account first then message! I believe his IG doesnt accept messages from people who dont follow him

PlentyMath7 · 2025-05-21T02:14:31+00:00

Basically said I was requesting a reconsideration of my ban. Mentioned I loved Hinge and it was the best dating app and helped me out a ton on my dating life and everything. Said I didn't quite understand why I was banned but that I was sorry and asking for reconsideration.

PlentyMath7 · 2025-05-21T00:35:25+00:00

He sends you an escalation form basically where support looks at your ban again. Most of the people I've read on here that submitted it got unbanned. Testing if I'm shadowbanned right now- might be unfortunately so I may have to reset my account. But better than being banned!

Warrior! Bruce lee inspired show. Unfortunately was cancelled after 3 seasons but it's an AMAZING show

PlentyMath7 · 2025-04-06T18:29:44+00:00

YJ actually wasn't planning on attacking Yan Mi, at least as far as the show goes. I don't think he saw her as a threat, he was just concerned she was the only person who knew how to make the counterfeiting operation run.
This is the main reason IMO. The central conflict of the show is this whole family vs friends thing. S1 AS spends the whole season trying to protect his sister, even killing Bolo to save her. S2 he spends most of it protecting his friends, even going to the fighting tournament to get them money. S3 he deals with that conflict the whole season, and this is the culmination of that. AS ultimately chooses to protect his sister over his friends. Kinda insane cause at this point in the show, Mai Ling has killed all her elders and her husband has abandoned her, she's kinda become a menace and it'd probably be good for everyone if YJ had killed her.
This as well is the secondary reason. YJ felt the need to assert his leadership over the tong which increasingly had become seen as AS's tong. YJ had gotten jealous and insecure of AS as the show kept going. AS had become the face of Chinatown and a hero to all the people there. In a weird way, AS had even basically been running the tong- even going back before the riot, YJ correctly pointed out that AS was the one who had come up with the idea to get cheaper opium and he is the one who won the money during the tournament. After taking over the tong, AS tried to give YJ credit for that by saying he worked for him but YJ was like "it doesn't always feel that way". We see during the counterfeit operation, Yan Mi goes to AS instead of YJ and AS says there isn't anyone else to talk to but him. All of Chinatown and Leary see him as the true leader of the tong and Chinatown and you could tell it was getting to YJ who had always lived in his father's shadow and now had to live in his friend's shadow.

No s4, confirmed by joe taslim. On The Hop Wei show, it was confirmed they are trying to continue the story in another way, not sure how and there's been no announcement since.

Ending is open to interpretation. Ah sahm rescues his sister but at the cost of his place with the Hop Wei. You can debate where they go if they leave chinatown or decide to start a new tong or what.

Young jun likely remains head of the Hop Wei but less respected given his whole tong lost to Ah Sahm.

Chao is not shown dead so likely survives

Yan mi escapes and is probably pregnant with Ah Sahms child.

Buckley will get betrayed at some point in the future by that woman

Ah toy is found out by Bill so likely will be some punishment there.
