Summary
Thread Guy returns from a Hamptons trip and covers a chaotic market open. He highlights Ansem memecoin mania as a sign of life in crypto, analyzes Michael Sailor's Bitcoin sale and the market's resilient reaction, and dives into the memory trade meltdown. He also discusses China gating its AI models, Trump's public beef with Michael Burry, and a bizarre Tony Robbins AI agent story.

- Michael Sailor sold $216M in Bitcoin at $60K; the sale was absorbed and BTC held, marking a potential local bottom.
- The memory trade (DRAM) is getting crushed, down ~30%, despite Micron and Samsung posting historic earnings.
- Thread Guy turned long Solana, bought at $81 anticipating a breakout above $100.
- China is considering restricting overseas access to cutting-edge AI models, mirroring US export controls.
- Trump publicly threatened short sellers, calling it 'anti-American', and Michael Burry responded with a deleted tweet.
- Tony Robbins claimed his AI agent autonomously sold NFTs and bought a robot dog, a story Thread Guy dismisses as fabricated.
