They changed the incentive structure at r/ethtraders quite drastically, so I haven’t been posting there regularly. That’s why you haven’t been bombarded with such posts. Nonetheless, because I have made it a habit to post something whenever I come across an interesting fact or inspiring quotation, here are some nuggets I have collected along the way.

1. Have you ever come across a word that you fell in love at first sight before? For me, the word is “impecunious”. Yes, it means “having little or no money”. But I gotta smile. At least I have Donuts that I can utilise as rainy day funds, if need be. Keep stacking Donuts!
2. u/vbuterin does good again! Vitalik Buterin's wallet has contributed 30 ETH to the Tornado Cash legal fund on Juicebox, a crypto crowdfunding platform. That’s almost as much as running your validator!
3. The revolution is happening. Thailand plans to launch an ONE Bitcoin ETF, exclusively available to high-net-worth individuals and institutional investors. It won’t be long before it approves of a spot ETH ETF. Soon the world will be populated with spot ETH ETFs. 👍
4. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to help create something that will. #Ethereum
5. Just learnt about nektar.network that allows one to become a node operator with less than 1 ETH. If you don’t want to operate a node, you can even stake with no minimum. Are Bronuts staking their ETH?
6. Albert Einstein once said, “Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute.” No wonder time on this sub flashes by like lightning. All you Bronuts’ company is akin to talking to a pretty girl.
7. Samuel Johnson observed, “All severity that does not tend to increase good, or prevent evil, is idle.” Seems that the sub has settled down for the better! Hope no more Donut tightening measures are introduced so that we don’t spoil the tenuous equilibrium now!
8. Did you know that there is a word in Hebrew, ‘shalom’, that implies not just peace, but also completion n wholeness? Consider shitposting here on r/ethtrader as a meditative practice. As Bronuts pen their inner truths, they become at one with life.
9. Greek philosopher Diogenes said, “solvitur ambulando” (“It is solved by walking”. Seems like walking is a great way to focus the mind. Do my Bronuts walk while shitposting here?
10. French mathematician n philosopher Blaise Pascal said, “all of humanity’s problems stem from man’s inability to sit quietly in a room alone.” This sub may be chaotic at times, but stay calm n sit quietly n maintain your inward connection, my Bronuts! The Donuts will come soon after.
11. r/ethtrader offers a wonderful recipe for marrying la dolce vita with the dynamism of the Information Age. Do you agree, Bronuts?
12. Did you know that NOOP is a term borrowed from computer science that means “no operation performed”? Of course, you don’t. Even if activity has dwindled, the lively pub atmosphere at r/ethtrader is open 24/7.
13. Napoleon is purported to have written, “I have made the most wonderful discovery. I have discovered men will risk their lives, even die, for ribbons!” Would my Bronuts die for Donuts? 🍩

Thanks for supporting my cross-posting effort.
