Love to see it. Every year I remind myself "why crypto". People understandably still think this is just a casino, but its not. Its about ownership and participation. For me then the answer to "why crypto" is "because no one can arbitrarily prevent you from participating".
after 12 years of working in crypto I've decided I will continue working in crypto because there is no mission more important than building a global economy that increases innovation, creativity, and freedom

Introducing: the Verse Tech Suite It’s been a tough few years for our ecosystem. Countless platforms & galleries have come and gone - many sunk by the cost of building basic tech. There's good news though: these costs are coming down. ↓

FX is a good crypto use case. Particularly if coupled with a phone tap (on existing networks) it could collapse the spread. It could even go direct to an FX market at settlement.

Let's all snicker as we watch @derschlub take us through buying, transferring and staking $MON to our @monad validator. Look at this goofball, he doesn't like attention, better not give him any! https://t.co/wUPCaQHZPT

With the help of LLMs I have started to revisit the work I did on simulated songbirds more than 15 years ago. And its _amazing_. Here's a spectrogram of a realtime "gesture" generated by a model syrinx and coupled oscillator control system. Completely recoded in Rust over 2

Yep. It’s a big deal. Democratic, egalitarian capital formation. Crypto is for everyone. https://t.co/91jbKlsnXc

@serpinxbt @nekonya_02 @_Starkcrypto @heartereum Coinbase Token Sales is basically a token sale launchpad Sonar is software for founders to self-host (ie. don’t use a launchpad at all) Echo is for much earlier stage access / higher risk / seed rounds
