  When the Internet first appeared, many people thought AOL was the Internet. Later, people discovered the Internet was still there. AOL wasn't. Then came a time when people thought Yahoo was the Internet. After that Google was the Internet. Then Facebook was the Internet. And now AI companies are becoming the new center of attention.The Internet itself never disappeared. The center of gravity simply kept changing.

  @megaburger_usd1 @ciderpunk20 She got put through the ringer not only on X, but also on discord. This was the very first token created on AOL and it got rugged. In fact, EVERY single $aol token has been rugged. They're literally offering apys off rugged tokens from their platform. How sad is that ****?

  All the SpaceX/Elon fanboys are upset that I said SpaceX is a wildly overvalued IPO and that at some point the share price will crater... and that is when you buy. But I hear all kinds of jibber-jabber about what SpaceX does and is and whatever. It's all the same words, just in a different order that defined the last 30 years of tech investing... and I've been around for all of it as a financial writer. So, here's a list of every IPO that was the biggest/most relevant of its time and what came of it: Netscape (1995): The company that lit the dot-com fuse. briefly dominated the internet browser market before Microsoft crushed it by giving away a competing product for free. limped into AOL's arms at a fraction of its peak value. Yahoo (1996): A $13 IPO that became a $110 billion fever dream at the peak of the bubble, then collapsed 93% to $8, spent a decade mismanaging itself into irrelevance, turned down a $44/share Microsoft buyout offer when it was already dying, and was finally sold to Verizon for parts in 2017. Amazon (1997): Went public at $18, rode the bubble to $113, crashed 94% to $6, then methodically became the most dominant retail and cloud computing empire in history. theglobe dot com (1998): Exploded 600% on its first trading day on pure mania with no real business model, and was bankrupt and forgotten within three years. VA Linux (1999): Holds the all-time record for the largest single-day IPO pop — up 700% — on just $17.8 million in annual revenue, and spent the next 15 years slowly selling itself off for scraps at a 90%+ discount to its opening-day price. Google (2004): The rare IPO that was actually priced like a real business, debuted into post-bubble investor skepticism, and rewarded anyone who held it with a 7,500%+ return over 20 years. Facebook/Meta (2012): Priced at $104 billion with a broken mobile strategy, immediately cratered 54% in under four months to $17 as investors fled, then finally cracked the mobile monetization code and turned a humiliating IPO into a 1,300%+ return for anyone who didn't panic. Snap (2017): Sold non-voting shares in a money-losing company with decelerating growth at 25x revenue, popped on day one, collapsed 75% within two years, and now nearly a decade later an IPO investor has still lost more than half their money. Uber (2019): Private market fantasies priced this one at $120 billion, the public market immediately said "no" and sent it below its $45 IPO price on day one, the stock bled another 25% in four months, and it took years of grinding toward actual profitability before the stock finally vindicated long-suffering holders. Alibaba (2014): Legit one of the greatest businesses in the world at IPO, rode to $300, then the Chinese government decided Jack Ma needed to be humbled, and a decade after its record-breaking debut the stock still trades below its first-day opening price. I am NOT saying that SpaceX is a bad company. I am saying SpaceX IPO is stupidly valued by an excessively greedy Wall Street trying to extract as much wealth as possible in this latest tech hype period. SpaceX will go on to great things one day ... but at 90x sales, the shares are destined for a deep, deep enema-like cleansing at some point. Extremely rich valuations never last. The history above tells you the trajectory.

  Bitcoin - it’s not a pretty picture right now. It’s been in a massive sell off since October of last year. It does have dynamic support at that red line, which is the 200 simple moving average. I would expect some sort of bounce there, but there is no “has to” in the markets and it can certainly go lower, even much lower.  My problem with bitcoin is its usability. I’ve never used bitcoin to buy anything and very few places accept bitcoin as payment. And when an asset class can move that quickly, it is certainly not a store of value, at least not yet. So when people say it’s digital Gold, I just don’t know, I don’t see it yet. Until I can actually use it, I can’t get excited about it. There is value to the technology I know that for sure but I’m not educated enough in crypto to know exactly what that is. The market will tell me when it’s time to buy crypto. Crypto reminds me of the .COM error of 2000, you could see the future, but you knew it was a while away from being practical. Most of the names that were all hyped up are no longer around like AOL or Infoseek or Netscape. With the .COM crash Amazon went to a dollar a share. OMG imagine where you would be right now if you bought Amazon at a dollar a share. We may be approaching a similar situation in bitcoin, I’m just not sure where this asset class bottoms. Don’t forget with the Internet, we were all hyped up about it in 1995 when it was just coming out, but it wasn’t until 2000 when all the mania started happening in the internet stocks which led to the eventual stock market crash of 2000.  Disclaimer: this is not professional, financial advice, it’s just my opinion.

  Open Ai = AOL circa 2000 There are so many Ai models catching up to.. and now passing Open Ai.. and ironically it’s because they are a closed source model. Their economics are fatally flawed. And they have an awful CEO. AOL was popular because people back in the 90’s people thought it was the best (and/or only) way to access the internet and email. Turned out aol was just first. Not the best or only. Just like Chat GPT. Open Ai was the first to market with Chat.. and has lived off that advantage. BUT - that is OVER now. So many Ai companies are passing Chat GPT in cost and performance… (This is why $MSFT and $ORCL are down this year,, they hitched their wagons to the wrong Ai player) Scam Altman is a charlatan and he will drive that company into the ground. $MSFT knows this now and wants out

  Something more lighthearted. How did Claire know Leon’s email to message him in OG CV? When he made her leave at the end of RE2, was he shouting his AOL address? Did he spend his free time in the Army barracks tracking down which university she attended? #REBHfun

  @hthieblot In the 90s there were no websites or apps, only Usenet, and then AOL came along with its intranet where you could chat, with access to a few dozen early internet sites, which you never used because AOL chat was the killer application at the time.
