By far, one of the most interesting Ethereum addresses I've seen is @0x_b1.
It's quite an interesting social experiment as well - a $300m whale starting a Twitter account for fun. Check their bio.
Let's break down the address and see what they are doing with their capital. 👇

It's industrial farming at its best - hundreds of transactions, swapping in and out of the latest yield farms on Ethereum.
Fun fact: the address has spent $111,000 in ether on transaction fees since its inception. Ow.
Not too sure if this is 100% accurate, as there may be some new farms that it may not capture or represent properly.
Out of the ~$280 million, only ~$250k is naked.
The address has $150 million worth of ETH and WBTC collateral deposited in Compound, which is being used to borrow $80 million worth of stablecoins.
C-ratio scares me a bit.
Borrowing Ethereum, MANA (for DG farming), SNX, and a few other tokens.
Health factor of 1.34...
December's LINK wick ($12 -> $8) could put this at risk.
One interesting bit about 0xb1's Cream balance is the use of ESD as collateral.
Cool to see that new collateral type being used.
A large portion is in BadgerDAO ($47 million) and Harvest ($30 million).
This address appears to be long BADGER, with $400,000 in BADGER staked, and $1m in BADGER Uniswap LP pools.
Another $27.5m in Uniswap, mostly in USDC-ETH.
Also $10 million in SushiSwap's Onsen program.
$2.7 million in ESD-USDC LP and $550k in the DAO.
$500k in DSD-USDC LP.
No coupons as far as I can tell.
The address holds 3,908,343 GRAIN—the claim token for the @harvest_finance attack. This can be sold for $260,000 assuming no Uniswap slippage.
This means the address lost $3.9 million in the Harvest attack, just over 10% of the total stolen amount.
DAI/USDC spiked to 1.3 late November, causing the oracle to print an extremely high price, liquidating Compound DAI borrowers.
I think the address lost $1.4 million in the liquidation of its position.
The address earns somewhere in the range of ~$200,000-400,000 each day in yield.
I'm keeping an eye on @0x_b1. Such a fascinating address - cool that they have a Twitter account as well.

We look forward to seeing what's in store for @Keeper_DAO -- this space is ripening....https://t.co/Ab0bYlNEhO

I just finished Eric Adler's The Battle of the Classics, and wanted to say something about Joel Christiansen's review linked below. I am not sure what motivates the review (I speculate a bit below), but it gives a very misleading impression of the book. 1/x
The meat of the criticism is that the history Adler gives is insufficiently critical. Adler describes a few figures who had a great influence on how the modern US university was formed. It's certainly critical: it focuses on the social Darwinism of these figures. 2/x
Other insinuations and suggestions in the review seem wildly off the mark, distorted, or inappropriate-- for example, that the book is clickbaity (it is scholarly) or conservative (hardly) or connected to the events at the Capitol (give me a break). 3/x
The core question: in what sense is classics inherently racist? Classics is old. On Adler's account, it begins in ancient Rome and is revived in the Renaissance. Slavery (Christiansen's primary concern) is also very old. Let's say classics is an education for slaveowners. 4/x
It's worth remembering that literacy itself is elite throughout most of this history. Literacy is, then, also the education of slaveowners. We can honor oral and musical traditions without denying that literacy is, generally, good. 5/x
As someone\u2019s who\u2019s read the book, this review strikes me as tremendously unfair. It mostly faults Adler for not writing the book the reviewer wishes he had! https://t.co/pqpt5Ziivj

BREAKING: @CommonsCMS @DamianCollins just released previously sealed #Six4Three @Facebook documents:
Some random interesting tidbits:
1) Zuck approves shutting down platform API access for Twitter's when Vine is released #competition
2) Facebook engineered ways to access user's call history w/o alerting users:
Team considered access to call history considered 'high PR risk' but 'growth team will charge ahead'. @Facebook created upgrade path to access data w/o subjecting users to Android permissions dialogue.
3) The above also confirms @kashhill and other's suspicion that call history was used to improve PYMK (People You May Know) suggestions and newsfeed rankings.
4) Docs also shed more light into @dseetharaman's story on @Facebook monitoring users' @Onavo VPN activity to determine what competitors to mimic or acquire in 2013.
