There has never been a worse time in history to be a junior dev. There has never been a better time in history to be a solo entrepreneur. The difference between these two is simply your mindset. Go build something people use.

Even the most self-sufficient kids need a squad to take on the ARC. Token Black knows the value of teamwork (and a deep wallet). Rally your friends and dive into ARC Raiders to fight the good fight. If you’re lucky, maybe Token will spot you some high-end upgrades.

@Ledger @Lamborghini Who signed off on a flashy limited edition hardware wallet as a good idea after the number of targeted home invasion / robbery cases continues to become more frequent? Just give the community Ledger black out edition that’s discreet with zero logo so it blends in with other

The recent hype around Polymarket and Kalshi is really great to see and the media headlines calling them “an overnight success” has me thinking pretty deeply about being a founder in a niche where no one really gets it the way you do. We’ve began doing the important work of

"It was idealistic and wildly chaotic work but it brought me closer to seeing how the blockchain could reorder society, seeing how things can be more equitable, how we can remove hierarchies and barriers and make people feel more rewarded." the DAO contribution management dream
Its takes like this that make me value the lens through which I got into this industry tbh. At the height of DAO fever, I found @coordinape and got to work with amazing humans like @tracheopteryx @fifthworldzach and many others. It was idealistic and wildly chaotic work but it

crypto is sometimes funny to me. just heard that Edgecity in Argentina: - cost $2000 for a ticket - you pay for your own stay/lodge - you pay for flight (sure expected) - you can join a residency, some are free, most charged $900-1500 - funniest one-> their volunteers paid $400

The coordination of Local stablecoins actually replaces the entire US correspondent banking system. I don’t think the market has fully digest this as yet
I got to see the issues of money first-hand from being an early employee at Airbnb. Trying to move money around 100+ countries wouldn’t work properly. It was (and still is) very slow, with constant delays, high fees, and it only works in certain countries. Crypto fixes this.

x402 made payments native to HTTP. I made USDC payments native to sound waves ✨ Not as a gimmick. As a proof. 1/ The setup: @CoinbaseDev's x402 protocol embeds payments into HTTP. It's brilliant. But I started wondering, if we can pay over HTTP, what else can we use to

Polite reminder that @ViFi_Labs was a @ETHGlobal hackathon submission, we went on to raise from some of the sponsors and we’re now solving problems in those very ecosystems. Don’t you ever say hackathons have no ROI, our plans are measured in centuries 😂

Some of these takes me feel like I should be teaching an economics 101 class. Who said non-USD stablecoins are going to “dethrone” the dollar? Basic common sense tells you the dollar is a global reserve currency and non-USD stablecoins are complementary not adversarial. What’s
nobody wants non-USD stablecoins Five years, dozens of new issuers, every major currency tried, and none have made any progress in dethroning the dollar.
