South Korea’s SK Hynix plans to issue American depositary receipts on Nasdaq. The world’s second-largest memory-chip maker said it is looking to raise more than $29 billion, and expects trading to begin July 10. The offering would be one of the biggest share sales in history, comparable to Saudi Aramco’s 2019 initial public offering and surpassing Alibaba’s U.S. ADR offering in 2014.

Is this a finance thing with which I am unfamiliar?

Senior tranche vs junior tranche

Senior tranche means in the event of a liquidation, senior creditors get paid back first, thus taking on less risk.

Funnily enough, the illusion of safety provided by tranching is partly what gave rise to the mortgage backed security crisis in 2008

reply

Ah, I had misread it. I thought he was calling the high-yield stuff senior bitcoin

reply

He is, but he's calling it high yield only in relation to typical bond yields.

To him, Senior Bitcoin = a contract that pays a high yield dividend (relative to bonds), and is backed by a senior claim against underlying bitcoin

Junior Bitcoin = the rest of the claim on the underlying bitcoin

But he calls the juniors "amplified Bitcoin" because it's higher risk higher reward. If you get liquidated while bitcoin is down in value, junior holders get nothing. But if Bitcoin goes up a lot in value, then the junior holders are better off, since the senior contract only promises the pre-determined yield, it doesn't promise any claim to the underlying bitcoin beyond that.

Let's find a corner for Territory Founders (SN Foundry?)Let's find a corner for Territory Founders (SN Foundry?)

Hey Stacker founders[1],

I'm planning on putting together a group chat so we can help each other manage, moderate, exchange ideas and promote our territories and content better in and out SN.

The group could be organized via Whitenose.chat (nostr-based chat app ). Just drop your npub in the replies or send me a DM (nostr npub13kkpytvjcxsqka9pdshw3094urgh8fxwx7ru258lved9wr7f35mspal584) and I'll add you to the group.

Also open to better ideas if there's another app you'd prefer to use. Let's figure this out together.

The discussion will end in a few months. Then next time around [1], maybe we can do collaborative Items, where many stackers can add links on the then-drama-of-the-moment in a draft post and just hit the button on the final edited weekly newsletter or so?

  1. yes, there will be a next time. Abandon all hope, ye who enter Bitcoin

Any chance you can make me the admin?

Keet is now making public rooms searchable!

reply

Alright! Sounds like you have to leave the group and then rejoin with an admin invite. (weird, but that's how keet does it apparently):

https://support.keet.io/keet-groups/group-member-roles/

question is how to share the admin invite with you: nostr DMs or some other way?

reply

yeah which npub you want white noise or Damus?

I left the group

reply

shoot me your Damus npub

do you still have access to this one: npub13dt5v2ucgc3at59qtrd9p6hxsgf7rt0h44f02a4zjal3yycqt38qrk9fxp

reply

I do but use that one as a throw away key. In various nostr clients like fountain and white noise

reply
reply

I sent an admin signup for the stackers on keet group. let me know if you have any trouble with it and I'll send it to you via whitenoise

reply

Okay I’ll wait for it

reply

I sent it 5hrs ago via nostr DM. Should I try again on white noise?

I'll check it out!

I hired a marketing team and it appears they are going to make me an X and LinkedIn.

I don’t particularly aspire to climb up the corporate ladder because my dreams have always been different from the norm.

Here is what I had wanted:

To teach my unique brand of enrichment classes that allow children to pick up both English and Chinese like a sponge.

Don’t be silly. Of course, I won’t quit my current job to take a stab at this dream. Parenthood is one unpredictable beast, so in order to cope with it, I actually prioritise boring old stability in the aspects that I can exert control over.

Today taught me that I might just need to put this dream on hiatus instead of squashing it.

I extracted some vocabulary words from a book I had read aloud to the son. Decided to lock in “delicately” because this is a word Primary 4 students will acquire from their Stellar text. Wanted to throw in 小心翼翼 for good measure. Wrote a sentence that comprises “delicately” and prompted ChatGPT to translate it into Chinese and include the Chinese idiom.

Also asked ChatGPT to create a poster out of these two sentences.

Within minutes, ta-da! my first bilingual resource was not only conceptualised, but created. Sensei doesn’t do things by halves, so he went to the staff resource room to laminate his poster.

Hit me up when your child needs bilingual tuition next time!

We started watching Severance a couple of days ago, we're already halfway through season 2. This show is spectacular.

reply

I found the first season very gripping, but then during the second season it felt a little to me like they were just kind of introducing weird things in order to be weird. I actually didn't end up finishing it. But the first season was excellent and I really enjoyed the feel of the show and the concept is sooo cool.
