I voted for @ewarren in the 2020 primary and am a lifelong Democrat. The idea of building an "army" to fight the creation of an open, transparent financial system that increases economic freedom globally is beyond the pale. I am against any politician with this stance.

PSA: I'm getting married and will be mostly away from the internet on my honeymoon from 6/14-7/5. I'll be sad to not be online for those weeks of onchain summer, but there will be many more summers and only one honeymoon. stay based and keep building.

base will be be 2x faster than solana.
Flashblocks make Base faster. This 10x change makes Base the fastest EVM chain to date, bringing effective block times from 2 seconds down to 200 milliseconds —and they're live on testnet right now + coming to mainnet in Q2

hyperliquid shows that building a product people love before you inject the complexity of a price is a Good Thing. we've seen the same thing with @base — starting without a token lets us focus on solving real problems and means we have to really earn it every day.

The ETH merge is likely top 5 most complex technical, organizational, and incentive migrations in human history. It makes me very mad when people nitpick or attack the teams for minor timeline changes, especially when we're this close and folks are working so hard.

spent the weekend digging in on AI and wow — @base is going to be the home of onchain agents. some of the things I got most excited about:. - @aixbt_agent is the #1 KOL in our industry by mindshare who also happens to be a fully autonomous AI agent built on Virtuals.- @freysa_ai.

the quality, long term thinking, and creativity of memes on @base is pretty incredible. i was initially pretty skeptical, but my mind has been changed — memes are cultural movements and they'll play a massive role in our onchain future. based memes are based.

just to be 100% clear: me and the @base community would have welcomed @pudgypenguins and their token with open arms and we are excited to collaborate with @AbstractChain on scaling ethereum. my hope is that folks bridge the token to @base alongside @solana and we grow together.

just got a new barber — him & his wife moved from venezuela. they use tron + USDT and "a guy" to convert USD to USDT for 5%, to send to her dad. onboarded them to @CoinbaseWallet, 1:1 USDC onramps, sending on @base. 5% back in their pockets. onchain is financial freedom.

I've spent the last few months in deep conversation with the @coinbase listings team on how they can better support and lift up builders, whether it's on @base or any other chain (L1, L2, everywhere). There's a difference between what Coinbase wants to list, and what they're able.
The @coinbase listings team wants to list any and every token that lifts up builders, no matter what chain it's on. But as a regulated exchange there are important differences between what we want to list, and what we are able to list. I know that's not always clear, and.
