Unless you are the deliverer of news, take your time to form and present opinions on the news. I learned this from Ben Thompson who is often late to the news but benefits from the more fully formed opinions of others and more complete information on the topic. This philosophy serves me well.
While one takes ones time, Matt Levine might comment on the topic of interest, in this case: Etherdelta. He says:

Members receive a members-only analysis each week that is timely and substantial. I've been asked to be more opinionated and responsive to current events, so I'll try to do that in this more private forum. If you want my critical take on what matters in the industry, you might enjoy these analyses.
You can see a sample of a members-only analysis here. And a list of all of them here. Don't take it from me, check out these tweets from members:
- "@tonysheng's writing is the best out there and this is worth every penny" --Myles Snider, CEO of Aurora EOS
- "Highly recommend signing up for a membership if you're full-time in crypto or passionate about the space" --Spencer Noon, Managing Partner at DTC Capital
- "All signal, no noise" --Zach Segal, Product at Coinbase
Over time, I'd love to develop more benefits like transcripts of podcasts (maybe host my own), a members-only discussion forum, AMAs with industry leaders, and more.
Thank you. I hope you'll stick around.
