Thanks to @RootNameService, users can easily nominate to my validator node on @TheRootNetwork (lv50node.root) All I had to do was: 1. Register a new @RootNameService identity 2. Set it as my Primary Name All done via the @futureverse FuturePass address that deployed the Validator Node.

Co-founder and CEO of Stripe's advice to ambitious young people:

Exciting update: Coinbase has partnered with @perplexity_ai to help traders get access to real-time trusted crypto data/info for better decision making. The first stage is going live today, and there's more to come: Phase 1 (now): Perplexity is now ingesting our market data, including COIN50, and using it to power market analysis. Users can double click into price moves to help make better informed trade decisions. The demo below shows what it looks like on Comet, Perplexity’s new browser. Also, the Perplexity team shared that just as many users are looking up crypto as equities, which is a cool stat. Crypto is going mainstream. Phase 2 (soon): Coinbase’s market data will be used in Perplexity’s responses to user queries. Traders will be able to monitor market activity, screen for trade ideas, and analyze token-specific moves in an AI-powered conversational interface. This integration was made seamless by our @CoinbaseDev platform. Love to see more use cases here! I expect enhanced crypto functionality will be a catalyst for AI to achieve another 10x unlock. Personally I’m most excited to see crypto wallets fully integrated into LLMs one day. That will be a huge step towards a permissionless, digital economy. And today, this new access to reliable real-time data via increasingly intelligent LLMs will help lots more people make smart, informed decisions about crypto. It’s a great step forward! @AravSrinivas and the team at Perplexity are amazing - I’m excited to be starting this journey with them.

the race to creativity has begun. every company is now competing on distribution, not just the product. the best product doesn't win anymore. the product with the best storytelling wins. it feels to me that we're still stuck thinking infrastructure = moat. wrong. infrastructure is table stakes now. there are 100+ L1s, 1000+ protocols, endless forks of everything. your moat is your media machine. the projects that will capture the next wave users won't be the ones with the best tech. they'll be the ones with the best stories, the most engaging content, the strongest cultural relevance. and i always say this: people don't buy products. they buy feelings, identities, belonging. so, if you can't make people feel something, you'll get buried by a team with worse tech but better content. this is why i'm fascinated by projects going all-in on content-first strategies. the race isn't to build the best chain anymore. it's to build the best story (+utility) around your chain.

here’s an announcement I guarantee you never saw coming: I’m launching a show with @wallstreetbets. yeah. Stonks. Gamestop. Apes. and Sam. why? someone needs to inject a little retail chaos back into web3. the blockchain conversation has turned into a small dinner party where everyone already agrees with each other. partnering with WSB is us kicking the door open and inviting 20 million retail traders to critique our life choices. wallStreetBets is not just a meme. it’s one of the most culturally impactful internet movements of the last decade. it’s the reason your cousin thought he was a financial genius in 2021. they changed how retail thinks about markets and grew to a Reddit community of almost 20 million people. this is being made possible by @Wire_Blockchain which is aiming to introduce a truly chain-agnostic experience. every currency, every chain, accessible always. you're probably wondering about format of the show the goal is high-chaos with high-signal. the people WSB has access to in their rolodex is crazy. - Founders - Traders - Degens - Influencers - Politicians Disagreements encouraged, sense of humor, mandatory. It’s about everything that sits at the intersection of crypto, traditional finance, and culture (including AI, gaming, memes, etc.) Big hugs and shoutout to @motionbynick who brought this insane opportunity to me, what an awesome meeting to take. And to be clear - I’m not leaving anything behind. Still building Farcade and WolvesDAO, still a web3 gaming maxi hosting Gamified and Simplified. but this lets me bring discussions to a much bigger arena. It’s not a pivot. It’s a megaphone. New map, same player. First episode coming up July 15th at 4pm EST (reminder link in the comments)

Big fan of @rally_xyz and what they’ve built. W move for @OpenSea 📈

i believe in brute forcing your way to success identify your goal (and why you want this) experiment & research till you've figured out a solution attack the problem with leverage this could be time, money, effort, or technology or a mix of all 4, which I find best

luck is when the product of your curiosity aligns with the crowd
