The APY of my Marcus by Goldman Sachs high yield savings account just went from 4.10% to 3.90% effective as of 12/4/24.

I know many people migrated to Bluesky the past week from X (Twitter), but I've been passionate about decentralized social since 2022.

I wrote about it for my Hot Take column for P00LS newsletter in May 2022 after I spoke at the Permissionless conference and I'm active everyday on Lens & Farcaster.

The NFT project and entertainment company launched in October 2021, Doodles has partnered with Crocs, Adidas, G-Shock and now McDonalds!
