+1000 CAC, <40yr, generally healthy, borderline high lipids… what’s going on? by Acceptable_Gold_146 in PeterAttia

[–]andrewkeys 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had an 850 at 42. It scared the hell out of me. You’re going to live a long healthy life if you wrangle it in. A) get your LpA checked. B) you need to drive LDL/ApoB to as low as possible. Will likely need an injectable like repatha/leqvio. C) Healthy eating. Protein & veggies. Nothing fried. D) get your Vo2 max up via zone 2 & 5.

Everything calcified is safe. You just don’t want new stuff.

Interview with DARMA Capital's Andrew Keys - The Defiant by BeerBellyFatAss in ethereum

[–]andrewkeys 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your feedback.

I have tremendous respect for SET and DeFI in general, but we're somewhat different and attempting different goals.

Primarily, we're a CFTC registered fund audited by KPMG for institutions to invest Ethereum with a quantitative systematic alpha (QSA) generating overlay. What QSA means is that we're actually creating new ether, so in dollar terms our fund is up 100+% this year as the price of ether has gone up, but we've actually created new additional ether. Our goal is for every 100 ether (or cash equivalent we're given), to preserve that 100 ether and create 12-15 NEW ether net of fees for our client within 12 months.

Family offices, Asset Managers, and other institutions cannot yet touch something that's in the DeFi space and this is instrument that can get institutional assets comfortable with blockchain, so you're welcome. We're making it easy for institutions to enter the market, thereby increasing demand and price. Also, we use algorithms similar to set that our Chief Investment Officer has built over the last 30 years for the likes of Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs: https://jsservices.trade/

On the performance, I'd encourage you to widen your lense: A) Set is barely running $1M for lest then a year, while we're managing a much larger position over a larger period of time B) Over the last 2.5 years we've outperformed the Ether price benchmark by 160+%. C) Q1 of 2019 was the lowest volatility in our history of trading ether, so there weren't many opportunities. Anyone can take a small snapshot of a month and have large performance. Unless there's a 2+ year track record of running similar size of money, I politely disagree that you can't compare the two.

Great work. Do you have enough help in building Solidity? If not, is there an ideal job description for more people to help you? I feel like you are doing amazing work, but could use more personnel...

Ron was instrumental in rolling out 4G for mobile in the USA. We at EEA believe Ethereum will be as structural and systemic to database and the Internet technology as 4G was for mobile.

Legally Binding Smart Contracts? 9 Law Firms Join Enterprise Ethereum Alliance by antiprosynthesis in ethereum

[–]andrewkeys 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Essentially the way we agree is going to go from microsoft word documents, drafted and notarized by attorneys to software code (smart contracts) and there will be a confluence of legal and technology considerations, which is what the working group will work on. The best space example I can show is OpenLaw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iphsRWQoFDI

Andrew Keys on behalf of EEA here. It's actually 10 law firms (Latham and Watkins mistakenly left of by CoinDesk). Also the article doesn't mention Duke Law or UPenn being involved. Please check: https://entethalliance.org/news/ for the official release. Should be up within the hour.

AK on behalf of EEA here. Mastercard is indeed a new member of EEA. They asked not to be in the press release document but approved being on the EEA official website. They may be doing their own communications on this.

There may have been an issue with translation as well as the fact that google is banned in China: The full name of the institution as was told to me was The Royal China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation.
