It's looking increasingly likely Tom Brady's new NFT company, Autograph.io, will be using THETA as a backend.
For one, Jon Feltheimer of Lionsgate is on the board, and they're a known investor in THETA.
Secondly, THETA has a deal with World Poker Tour which is owned by Bally/Fox Sports AKA Sinclair Media. Bally Sports also broadcasts Tom Brady's Tampa Bay Buccaneers games.
World might be small, but I don't think its that small. Expect the WPT is Bally Sports/Sinclair Media's way of testing the waters with THETA as a backend streaming platform in addition the NFT options.
Further still THETA is pushing next weeks NFT drops for the WPT games hard, so I'm expecting THETA to get its Coinbase listing as well. There was rumor leaked the listing would happen April 21st from a dev that back this up. It'd be weird if US viewers had to jump through hoops to participate, like especially if we consider(assume) most these poker people aren't as immediately familiar to crypto, so it lines up.
Also the main Theta network Twitter account posted recently to prepare to prefund your accounts with THETA's cash coin TFUEL before the NFT drops next week. Kind of strikes me as an odd thing to say to a predominantly US audience if they can't currently buy the coins without jumping through hoops...
Edit: I've been told and see now the THETA Drop FAQ says people will be able to direct purchase, but it doesn't specify if it's for TFuels or NFTs directly. Even if we don't get a Coinbase listing, which I still think is gonna happen sooner rather than later, we'll at least get more intuitive access to the THETA ecosystem for the US. The way they've phrased prefunding the account to me implies direct TFuel purchasing because what would be the point of prefunding a cash balance with a credit/debit card that can already have an immediate transaction.
Edit2: I've seen multiple reports of liquidity issues over the last week or so trying to purchase THETA via SimpleSwap.
Edit3: Binance unstaked 33M tokens a month ago implying liquidity was aggressively needed.
Pointed out that Tom Brady’s new NFT company could be distributing their NFTs through Theta. Why Theta? Well let’s look at the PR and see who is helping run this.
When you see it comment below!
“Besides having former MySpace owner Richard Rosenblatt aboard as Brady’s co-chairman, members of Autograph’s advisory team include Apple senior V.P. Eddy Cue, Lionsgate CEO Jon Feltheimer, Live Nation Entertainment CEO Michael Rapino, DraftKings co-founders Jason Robins and Paul Liberman, Cameo CEO Steven Galanis, Dodgers and Golden State Warriors co-owner Peter Guber.”
Since some of you were interested in me sharing updates regularly so I am back posting here doing the same. You can find my previous post here:

My investment philosophy is to invest in companies with market cap above 1B though ideally 2B but I try to keep an open mind. To give a background of why insider buying is important I want to share an example of 2 companies of various sizes: UTZ, RTX.
UTZ:
Utz Brands, Inc. manufacturers, markets, and distributes snacking products in the United States. The company has a market cap of 3.60B. This had an insider buy in Sept 2020 and if this had been on your radar and let's say you had bought this around 18$. It is currently trading around 26 with a total percentage gain of 44.4% which I think is great!! Unfortunately I was not following it then and I have no position in it.
UTZ Insider buying in September 2020
RTX:
Raytheon Technologies Corporation, an aerospace and defense company, provides systems and services for the commercial, military, and government customers worldwide. If you had an interest in RTX for some reason and you saw the insider buying below and got in around 55 and the current price is close to 79. Your % gain would have been 43.6%. I do have a position in RTX with 120 shares at avg cost price ~62. Unfortunately I did not follow the insider buying back then.
RTX insider buying in October 2020
In the case of RTX my theory is that insiders were buying the stock as they thought it was undervalued due to air travel suffering due to Covid-19. And in the case of UTZ the insiders were aware of some catalysts which will take the price higher maybe an acquisition https://seekingalpha.com/news/3635480-utz-brands-to-acquire-truco-enterprises-for-480m or the capability to beat the earnings or stock is undervalued or all of the above.
The retail investors should try to use the insider buying data as a sign of confidence to add to their DD on the stock either part of their watchlist or part of their portfolio. I can share more instances of how inside

The funeral director was asking us what we think Mum should wear in her casket.
Mum always loved to wear sarongs (fabric wraps that go around the torso and drape downward a bit like a long skirt would), so my uncle suggested that she wear a sarong in there.
The funeral director looked a bit confused, as did some of our family members, to which my uncle added:
"What's sarong with that?"
I started laughing like an idiot. He was proud of it too. The funeral director was rather shocked. We assured her, and our more proper relatives, that Mum would've absolutely loved the joke (which is very true).
His delivery was perfect. I'll never forget the risk he took. We sometimes recall the moment as a way help cushion the blows of the grieving process.
--Edit-- I appreciate the condolences. I'm doing well and the worst is behind me and my family. But thanks :)
--Edit-- Massive thanks for all the awards and kind words. And the puns! Love 'em.
I would have a daughter
Because 10+10 is twenty and 11+11 is twenty too..
Edit: thank you for awards, I have never gotten one before. I apologize that this is a repost, I did see it on TikTok and thought that it was cute and wanted to share. In the future I will check the sub for similar content before I post anything.

True story; it even happened last night. My 5-year-old son walks up behind me and out of the blue says, "hey."
I turn to him and say, "yeah, kiddo? What's up?"
He responds, "it's dead grass."
I'm really confused and trying to figure out what's wrong and what he wants from me. "What? There's dead grass? What's wrong with that?"

He says, totally straight-faced, "hay is dead grass," and runs off.

You officially hit rock bottom
And then you will all be sorry.
Now it’s syncing.
Because he wanted space
Edit: Thank you for the awards.
He replied, "Well, stop going to those places then!"
I will find you. You have my Word.
She said how do you know he was headed to work?
“thank you for your cervix.”
