if it keeps going like that, in the next few weeks we'll be voting somewhere else
no idea where you guys got 90 million bucks from but thanks for the win in the 1st round
ads
my channel is home for me, and any of its participants are family. the people who sell ads on their channels seem to be ready to just come home, take off their pants, dump a huge shit in front of their beloved ones and say:
– guten morgen, family! this thing will stay here for 24 hours, then i'll clean it up.
– disgusting! – exclaims the mother
– i can't breathe... – barely gets to say the sister
– fuck that shit – shouts the brother and puts on a gas mask
the ad seller, meanwhile, stands unfazed and exclaims:
– my personal recommendation - have a taste of this exquisite delicacy! any person who had eaten it is now rich and successful. my auntie achieved a whopping 3000% ROI just 2 weeks after drinking this culinary delight in a liquid form!
in the 4 years that i've had this channel, i had only sold 3 ads, and after each time i looked at myself with absolute disgust, much like in the process described above. you're given a 6 mile-long text wall of total bullshit, a link to some retard's channel, which you'd never recommend to anyone – and your task is to rotate your moral compass 180 degrees, blatantly lie to your audience, renounce your responsibility with a #sponsored hashtag, and you do all that... just for some money.
but you'll never escape the responsibility – it's your text, your bullshit, your recommendation, and it is you who must look your family in the eyes while they gaze at the pile of shit you dumped on the ground.
never trust a prostitute, a politician and a person who is ready to sell an ad without having a turmoil of guilt.
exchange referral programs are the future of monetization of any channel, even with weak relation to crypto. it is a noble cause to rid people of feeling guilty for selling ads, allowing them to simultaneously earn ten times more – and that is why we are building our own exchange.

exactly one year ago i made that one damned fucking post after which we've seen a bunch of retarded shit that is probably never coming to an end. if that was only the first year, what the hell are we going to witness next?
happy birthday, grimace.
happy birthday, grimace.
notes on the bear market
would be nice to summarize the experience acquired during it, since there's never been a cycle without a bear market in crypto – and it will always be like this, so long as founders, projects, buy&sell buttons exist. and this period has taken enough time to come to an end.
a bear market starts in a moment of climax, when everything is going so well that nobody has a single doubt it will stop – when everyone has bought, and therefore, there are only potential sellers in the arena. the greatest mistake is to resist the force, supposing that you will be able to stop it and your actions will not be in vain.
a standard bull market lasts around 6 months, same as for a bear market, and the best thing a CEO can do when he realizes he's the only buyer and he can prove it by publishing his order history on all accounts – is to fuck off for half a year, and then organize a triumphant return. if morality doesn't allow doing this, then, at the very least, the most obvious mistakes should be avoided:
1. a ceo can't just eat dump after dump, buying up the supply. the price will inevitably get to a point where the market contestants come to a consensus. creating exit liquidity for those willing to leave is just going to extend the agony of a bear market. since the majority of the contestants are sellers, they must be selling at the most unfavorable prices.
2. a ceo cannot give any predictions. bear markets, much like bull markets, shatter logic in a million pieces – you can never be sure how low people will be willing to sell.
3. and lastly, a ceo cannot state that they've been buying the supply/containing the dumps. in any strong project, the participants create buying pressure with their demand, and the founder is only selling. in projects that go soft and show weakness before the birth of a trend – the ceo is buying the supply.
so, one of the most positive signs is saying "i sold a million bucks worth of tokens and the price didn't give a fuck". and vice versa, if you say "i bought a million bucks worth of tokens and the price didn't give a fuck" – flippers and scalpers will come to the obvious conclusion. it's not an obligation to say everything as it is – it's a lot better to shut your mouth up until the moment the potential of using the words against you will be reduced to zero. the bear market is an aggressive and bloodthirsty time, and you cannot play by the rules of a bull market during it.

you know, i must say i'm very sorry for posting so rarely. i love you very much, but when there's nothing interesting to talk about – better not talk at all rather than filling up the channel with empty words.
Larry King
when i was a child, being barely articulate prevented me from having normal communication, which made society quite uncomfortable to me:
they ask you something, you take a full mouth's breath, and you realize you can't respond without stuttering – you smile like an idiot, try a second time and barely get to say anything again, since the time for response has slipped away and now people just think that you're a retard.
– hello, can i see Olya? – i rehearsed, standing near the entrance, for 10 straight minutes, because no one would let Olya near a moron you can barely understand.
this problem begged for a solution: i read somewhere that Demosthenes, an ancient Greek orator, solved a similar issue in this manner: filled his mouth full of rocks, standing on the shore, and tried to shout louder than the waves. i went to Neva, picked up the roundest rocks, filled my mouth and tried to speak. a few seconds of this was enough to make me spit it all with a loud and clear
– motherfucker!
on my tongue, because i almost broke my teeth. the guy who wrote Demosthenes' story retold some bullshit he didn't even bother to fact-check.
reading out loud and tongue twisters were even less effective. then, in a book shop, i encountered Larry King's "how to talk to anyone, anywhere, anytime", which also held nothing of use. nothing but this:
Larry was telling his story of getting into radio, when he kept coming to a studio for months on end, pissing off the staff, same as we did with shilling Grimace to the whole CIS region. then, impressed by the persistence, they decided to give him a chance – he sat by the microphone and was left alone in the radio room. but as soon as they went live Larry realized he couldn't say a word.
first five seconds were completely silent. then ten, twenty. the studio owner started aggressively hitting the glass, showing with gestures that Larry needs to start talking. but he kept silent. then, in a raging tantrum, the owner grabbed a chair and hit it on the glass.
what happened next was described by Larry as such: "if you don't know what to say – always say the truth"
– hello everyone, my name is Larry King – he started, unexpectedly. – i am live on the radio for the first time, and i dreamed about it my whole life, but now, when i am given my first and last chance, i am incredibly nervous and can't say a word, which is making the studio owner ragingly batter the glass wall using a chair, and it seems that after the show it will be my turn to get fucked up...
the rest of the episode went fantastically, and the method of "saying as it is" worked well, Larry got his job, and in time he became one of the most popular radio&tv hosts.
my story is quite a plain one, but nine years have passed and i still remember it, because there's nothing simpler and more pleasant than speaking the truth, and there's nothing that brings as much trouble as bullshitting. lying is useless, leads you to lying to yourself, and then you get completely lost in your own lies.
i would even suppose that Grimace made its way to $100M market cap only thanks to Larry King's forgotten method. so, try it out for yourself, see how life changes, and from now on – off with the bullshit, degens.

yesterday, a vip's wallet got hacked, with 0.3% of grimace supply – and the hacker didn't come up with anything better than just dumping it all in one sale.
learned hacking but didn't learn how to sell without losing half your profit
we've already had a similar story, back when the NFTs got hacked and the hackers had a significant portion of the apostles' supplies. all of it was instantly sold in one order. after that, the apostles had 3 months of consistent growth, and i'd love to see the faces of those fomotards when they realized that they missed a 1000x more

it's the end of the month, which means it's time to send rewards for @GrimaceTaskBot
expect the payouts in a few hours
