Happy Monday homies. We're starting our week with good vibes & even better news. Here goes a weekend full of drama 😎

Today we cover:

  • Elon Musk Twitter drama

  • Azuki disappears from OpenSea

  • Oops, Solana goes down…again?

    Elon Musk’s exposed texts 🥵

    We have a lot to unpack here…

    You’re in luck if you’ve ever wanted to know what it's like to go through a billionaires phone. Hundreds of Elon Musk’s private text messages were released to the public 😳

    TechEmails tweet threads went viral on Twitter after showing messages between Elon Musk, Parag Agrawal (Twitter CEO), Brett Taylor (Board chair) and Jack Dorsey (Twitter co-founder).

    But why is this all coming to light now? The upcoming Elon Musk v. Twitter trial!

    After Elon Musk backed out of his $44 billion deal to buy the social networking site. Twitter took action and filled a law suit against him, in an effort to hold him accountable.

    Elon Musk was ordered to hand over his text messages and emails. And the 152 page court document did not disappoint. Tons of spicy deets were revealed 🥵

    The highlights

    • Jack Dorsey (Twitter co-founder) is named Jack Jack in Elon’s phone

    • Lots of emojis and react/ liking each others messages

    • Elon had the idea of requiring everyone to pay 0.1 DOGE to tweet

    • SBF (FTX) was interested in buying Twitter too

    • Joe Rogan texted Elon “I REALLY hope you get Twitter. If you do we should throw a hell of a party” and Elon Musk responded back with “💯 sounds good”

    Read the full document at your own risk…

    This is only the beginning, so get your popcorn ready because the trial is expected to start October 17!

    No, it ain't NFT content but given we source 99% of our content on Twitter this is highly relevant news.

    OpenSea delists Azuki

    You might have heard about entire Azuki collection disappearing from OpenSea 🙃

    It all happened so fast. News sources barely had time to break the news before Azuki was back on OpenSea— like nothing happened.

    TLDR of what went down…

    • Azuki holders get sent delisting emails from OpenSea

    • We learn same thing happened to BAYC earlier this year

    • The Azuki team reaches out to OpenSea

    • In less than three hours the collection was relisted

    Product Manager, DemnaAzuki, was really happy with the support they got from OpenSea throughout the ordeal. Calling it a 10/10 experience.

    OpenSea tweeted it was an error in their Trust & Safety flagging system that caused a number of the Azuki NFTs to be delisted.

    This was one way to get everyone talking about Azuki.

    Did y’all have your Azuki listed, or do you have diamond hands? 💎🙌

    Solana stops working again

    On Friday night (EDT), The Solana network had its fourth major outage since January 2022. The blockchain stopped processing transactions for several hours before validators completed the restart.

    I know that might seem like a lot of down time, but it’s nothing compared to the 17-hour outage Solana had last September.

    Solana’s network outages are a meme now 🤣

    I don’t think too many people care anymore about Solana being down. As the price of SOL hardly moved!

    Some community members tweeted that they’ve never been more bullish on Solana.

    Then next day, stakewiz.com (a Solana validator), tweeted their thoughts on the validator that caused the outage.

    No other blockchain had outages like Solana has this year. What’s your opinion on their frequent down time?
