Celebrate Your Small Wins and Rise to the Next Level

0

The world seems like it is falling apart and nothing seems to work. The job has not come. I read lines like “my career is in a mess” from members these days. I have these words today for you: do not be too hard on yourself. If you look deeper, you are making progress. To get to that next level you are dreaming, you must use the progress you have made ALREADY.

Most times, our success was past tense, and always forgotten, because the next level has not come! How would you move to the next level when the already achieved progress has been discarded? She made Second Class Lower (2.2) in college, and the god is now 2.2. For her, she has not achieved anything. Unless you see that 2.2 as progress, that next level would not come.

You see this man in this photo? He has a small template on how to live in our time. When ABU Zaria confirmed his degree that he made a 3rd class, a few years ago, the next day he wore an academic gown to the Nigerian Senate, celebrating his win. Call him names, but note this: he built on that 3rd class, and he has a life today. He possibly put his best and ended with 3rd class, validating my thesis that grade is largely marginal, as what matters is the process to the grade.  Great processes are universal but grades are not.

There is no job/office someone has not resigned from. If you look deeper, most things mean nothing. But we can make ourselves something. Do not be too hard on yourself – you are making progress! But keep pushing! Be inspired by others but try to live your life.

My unalloyed philosophy is that I have a lot of privileges. Sure – I went to the best primary school, best secondary school, best university, etc. You will waste your efforts to make me think otherwise. Why? A kid who attended a village school is better than millions who did not know the road to any school. For me, that is a privilege I have, and upon which I can push to achieve more.

Here is the message: In 2025, focus on what you have and have achieved, to build yourself to the next level. If you have an optimistic view of things, you will find internal energy to achieve more, but that positive combustion will not come if you do not celebrate yourself. Learn from Dino Melaye on how to celebrate small wins.

Solana ETF Looks Set to Be Rejected but SOL Price Should Still See $300; Remittix ‘PayFi’ Presale Explodes

0

Solana ETFs have been a hot topic in the market for a while now, but some market experts believe the ETF applications could be rejected in early 2025. Meanwhile, Remittix’s new PayFi protocol is soaring through its presale by raising nearly $650K in record time. Let’s find out what makes this newcomer special.

Solana (SOL) ETF Could be Rejected Because of Previous Lawsuit

According to Fox Business, two of the five asset managers who filed applications for a Solana ETF have been informed of the likely rejection already. Although a Solana ETF will likely become a reality at some point in 2025, regulators could significantly delay the process.

The real reason behind this is that Solana was previously classified as a security in lawsuits against major DEXs like Binance and Coinbase. Although the SEC dropped the direct lawsuit against Solana, the unresolved regulatory status of Solana could be a critical factor in the ETF rejection.

Despite this negative outlook, Solana’s price is beginning to regain bullish strength after a long consolidation period. Solana is currently trading for $195.72 after an intraday increase of 1.76%. Solana’s Momentum Indicator is already flashing strong buy signals, with analysts expecting Solana to test the R2 resistance at $328.75 in early 2025.

Remittix’s (RTX) Cross-Border Payment Revolution is a Game Changer

Remittix is giving traditional banking apps a run for their money with its blockchain-powered cross-border payment solution. Remittix allows users to convert any cryptocurrency into fiat and deposit funds into any bank account as local currency. Remittix processes every fiat deposit through local payment networks, cutting the transaction speed in half as compared to traditional wires and FX transfers.

Analysts believe Remittix could become the leading banking app in 2025 because of its lightning-fast transaction speeds. By leveraging the latest blockchain technology, Remittix ensures every transaction is processed within the same day and with complete transparency.

Remittix’s smart contract has already passed a comprehensive BlackSAFU audit which is a testament to the platform’s commitment to security. This blockchain technology ensures that payment records cannot be altered, making users place their complete trust in Remittix’s PayFi solution.

At the heart of Remittix’s PayFi ecosystem is the native $RTX token. Remittix investors can use $RTX to gain voting privileges which makes them important stakeholders within the ecosystem. Remittix also encourages investors to become long-term holders by offering annual staking rewards with up to 18% APY.

Remittix is also expected to dominate the global banking market in 2025 with its platinum debit card. VIP-tier presale investors can use these cards to make seamless crypto-to-fiat transactions anywhere in the world, increasing Remittix’s real-world utility.

Remittix is still in its presale phase, but it is already gaining more traction than Solana by raising nearly $650K in record time. Investors are rushing to Remittix’s presale to accumulate the native $RTX governance token for a low price of only $0.0163. With this low entry point, Remittix is attracting thousands of SOL investors who would rather be part of Remittix’s revolutionary crypto-to-fiat banking platform.

Leading Web3 Projects That Keep On Attracting: SUI, Solana, And Rollblock

0

The growing buzz around Web3 projects like SUI and SOL has been a major driver of the current altcoin season, capturing the attention of investors seeking the next big opportunity. Amid this excitement, Rollblock has emerged as a rising star.

Combining real-world utility with strong growth potential, Rollblock’s innovative GambleFi model offers a fresh perspective in the crypto space. Positioned uniquely against established names like SUI and SOL, Rollblock is gaining momentum as a standout contender for 2025.

Rollblock is a unique crypto that changes the future of gambling

Rollblock is a new crypto poised to dominate the $450 billion gambling industry with its innovative platform. Offering 7,000+ games, live casinos, and sports betting, it stands out as the first blockchain-based play-to-earn online casino on Ethereum. Users can enjoy popular games like craps, blackjack, roulette, and a lot more, all backed by Ethereum smart contracts for transparency and security.

The platform includes token buybacks, burns, and staking rewards, with 60% of bought-back tokens burned and 40% redistributed to stakers. Rollblock’s ecosystem offers up to 30% APY, rewarding long-term holders and reducing token supply to drive value. Weekly dividends further enhance its appeal, creating consistent incentives for investors.

Rollblock raised $7.7 million during its presale, pricing RBLK at $0.044. Analysts predict explosive growth in 2025, fueled by its GambleFi model and revenue-sharing perks. Unlike SUI and SOL, Rollblock’s presale momentum positions it as a standout investment for those eyeing sustainable and practical DeFi solutions.

SUI has on-chain success in the crypto space

This crypto has made waves, with its Total Value Locked (TVL) reaching an impressive $1.8 billion in December 2024. Investor confidence is strong, with market sentiment reflecting “Extreme Greed” and consistent on-chain volumes between $400 million and $600 million.

Currently trading near $4.23, analysts predict SUI could hit $23.77 by 2030, driven by its adoption in DeFi and gaming. While SUI showcases strong fundamentals and long-term growth potential, Rollblock sets itself apart by delivering tangible user rewards and immediate investment opportunities.

Solana (SOL) is a DeFi and NFT powerhouse

SOL has cemented its place in the crypto space with a Total Value Locked (TVL) of $23.08 billion, underscoring its dominance in DeFi and NFTs. Its decentralized exchange (DEX) volume outpaced Ethereum by 83.7% in November 2024, showcasing increasing adoption.

Currently, SOL is eyeing a potential $300 valuation by year-end if positive sentiment persists. With strong network growth and high holder engagement, SOL thrives on activity. However, Rollblock stands out with unique features like passive income generation and daily, weekly, and monthly rakebacks for its RBLK token holders.

Conclusion

SUI, SOL, and Rollblock each contribute unique strengths to this digital ecosystem, captivating investors during this exciting altcoin season. Rollblock’s innovative iGaming model, its impressive presale success, and its focus on tangible investor rewards make it a clear standout.

With a dynamic platform offering real-world applications and strong growth potential, Rollblock positions itself as a top contender, offering stability and opportunities unmatched by competitors.

OpenAI, Creator of ChatGPT Cannot Use ChatGPT to Discover the Right Corporate Structure

1

You cannot make this up: “OpenAI’s Board of Directors is evaluating our corporate structure in order to best support the mission of ensuring artificial general intelligence (AGI)1 benefits all of humanity, with three objectives”. Yes, a $157 billion company board is still “evaluating” its corporate structure!

OpenAI’s Board of Directors is evaluating our corporate structure in order to best support the mission of ensuring artificial general intelligence (AGI)1 benefits all of humanity, with three objectives:

  1. Choose a non-profit / for-profit structure that is best for the long-term success of the mission.
  2. Make the non-profit sustainable.
  3. Equip each arm to do its part.

We have a non-profit and a for-profit today, and we will continue to have both, with the for-profit’s success enabling the nonprofit to be well funded, better sustained, and in a stronger position for the mission.

We view this mission as the most important challenge of our time. It requires simultaneously advancing AI’s capability, safety, and positive impact in the world. In this post, we share the history of our current structure, why we think a change is necessary, and what specific change we are considering.

OpenAI is in a mess because most of the founding partners are those who believe in the unalloyed supremacy of technology above all things. Yes, provided they can extend the Pythagorean postulation that the universe is numbers, and can pursue its practicalization in fixing market frictions, everything will fall into place.

Unfortunately, that is an illusion, and OpenAI is learning the hard way. If they had incorporated this company as a for-profit company, the generative AI pioneer will not be going through this paralysis. But that was not the case as they went non-profit, and now want to evolve, and morph, into another species of companies. Unfortunately, that is not an easy thing, because the law is clear: if you are to dissolve that non-profit, the assets move to another non-profit or to the state for public good.

Of course, how do you hand over $157 billion to the government? That is why the Board is still “evaluating” because they have no clear answers. When they are done, a simple suit will bring them to order.

Many years ago, to fund my personal non-profit on electronics in Africa (via African Institution of Technology,  a 501c3 charity, which has supported electronics education in 112 universities, click afrit.org for photos), I read the ordinance with the US Internal Revenue Service. Quickly, it became clear that it is better to go and make money, and use the profit to support any charity of interest, than setting up a non-profit directly for its purpose. That is what lawyers will tell you because you never know tomorrow. So, you will have Mastercard Foundation, Intel Foundation, etc funded by Mastercard, Intel, etc.

The creator of ChatGPT cannot use ChatGPT to discover the right corporate structure because that is above the pay-compute-grade of ChatGPT. But if they had asked a recent law graduate, they possibly might have been saved from this. And that takes me to the message: use those lawyers, pay them, because they will save you from troubles. Today, I sent two documents to two different lawyers (yes, I use two ), and was happy when they independently returned: “Prof, it’s ready to go”, “Sir, everything looks nice”. 

Good People, respect lawyers because they serve as high priests on the altars of governments even if you are a tech prodigy.

In 2025, PUSH, do not just knock!

0

The door is closed. Sure – everyone can see it. But I have seen many closed doors which are not locked. Simply, a simple push will get you in, even when a knock would not have worked, because no one was on the other side to open it for you.

Many things in life seem closed, and we keep knocking, when what we need is a PUSH.

“Sir, can I review that work for you?” – that is a knock. Possibly, he responds “do not bother”.

“Sir, this is my review of that work” – that is a push. You’re in.

PUSH, do not just knock all the time. Remember: the easiest way to get help from the richest in this world is to help them make more money. By the time you help them scale their empires, they will give you a tent within the empire. Unfortunately, rich people do not open doors for people, so knocking is a waste of time.

In 2025, PUSH, do not just knock!
