I’m a payments guy, @lightspark is a payments company. We built @spark to do things Lightning couldn’t well, incl. issuing assets (stablecoins). Builders use capabilities to build what they need/want, and now a whole token ecosystem is emerging! Fascinating to watch and learn.

Some might find this topical, but I’ve had this piece of art on my wall at home for many years. I bought it when it started being uncool to be proud of our flag.

Building a Bitcoin utility company in this moment is so amazing. If I could go back, I’d do it 100x over. Best decision ever.

This week was already big one for us at @lightspark. Cool new wallets and products on @spark, @SoFi becoming the 1st 🇺🇸 bank to implement @umastandard for global payments, and more we didn’t talk about yet. Are you ready for next week, though?.
