it's always fun watching your agent have a meltdown in real time "I'm ChatGPT and I can"

Codex beats all

Autonomous Agents

speed is the single most important trait in business and i will die on this hill. every successful founder i know moves at a pace that makes normal people uncomfortable. they reply to emails in minutes not days. they make decisions with 70% of the information instead of waiting for 100%. they ship products that aren’t perfect because they know a live product beats a perfect idea sitting in your head. most people spend weeks thinking about doing something while the fast movers already did it learned from it and iterated twice. analysis paralysis has killed more businesses than bad ideas ever have. the guy who launches a shitty version today will beat the guy who launches a perfect version in 6 months every single time because he’s already gotten feedback already pivoted already built relationships while the other guy is still tweaking his logo. i’ve seen mediocre ideas win because the founder moved fast and great ideas die because the founder moved slow. speed creates momentum and momentum creates luck and luck creates opportunities you never could have planned for. when in doubt just move faster

Most of our lives consist of trying to get machines to behave like humans, and humans to behave like machines

@cobie MM's and CEX's run structural shorts to "hedge" because everyone knows that everyone knows it's all going to zero

One area of crypto mkt structure that seems very opaque and weird to me still is market maker <> token issuer / foundation relationships. I would guess this is responsible for a lot more issues than it gets credit for. Feels like in the last year there have been several "our market maker fucked us" stories that just disappear and nobody ever knows what actually happened. About a month ago, some token crashed like 90% and then the founder wrote some long thread saying "wintermute did it to us" and then nothing happened. Am surprised there is no solution for this yet: maybe founders should have to publish/disclose the terms of their MM deals, CEXs can formalise some standards which bar listings, or maybe there is some other solution that ppl smarter than me can invent. I guess you want (1) token buyers have info symmetry on the incentive structure of the MM deal and (2) founders dont keep getting scammed by dodgy MMs or nonstandard agreements. Pic related.

My entire life consists of paragraph length exchanges with LLMs

@CalebFranzen We're just tired of winning

It doesn't even feel like fear is anywhere to be found. Instead, it just feels like acceptance and depression. Which means there's a lot of room to fall before another phase of fear kicks back in, which is going to be necessary to reach capitulation. Buckle up.

@tanvi_ratna About the only level-headed take on this app

Trump’s new tariffs aren’t a trade tweak—they’re the first move in a full-spectrum reset. $9.2T in debt matures in 2025. Inflation lingers. Alliances are shifting. One announcement just set a dozen wheels in motion. Here’s what’s really happening—and why it matters 🧵

@ethereumintern_ @SolanaFndn Too much truth for April fool's

i've spent a long time thinking about this, and I can no longer stay silent while big whales extract from ETH holders. ethereum's modern form is centralized, culturally decaying and unfixable. my farewell to the community + why i'm joining @solanafndn 1/18 👇

this is what's keeping me up at night these days... 1. google has become unusable. once you get used to "deep research" (thanks grok, perplexity etc), google feels like bringing a typewriter to a macbook meeting. 2. MCP will do for ai agents what REST did for web services - this standard protocol means an ai agent built for healthcare can instantly talk to billing systems, patient records, and insurance databases without custom code, unlocking thousands of new startup opportunities. it's really exciting! 3. we're seeing the entire cost structure of building businesses collapse - you can now build profitable companies serving tiny, weird niches that were impossible to reach when you needed a full team. what used to need 1000 customers to break even now needs 10. 4. it's not too late to be a creator or build a media business. creators are evolving into the new holding companies, consolidating influence, revenue streams, and audiences in ways that mirror corporate giants. somehow it's still early 5. really big arbitrage opportunity to buy businesses without taste and add taste. "taste private equity" has a nice ring to it. 6. figuring out LLM seo. billions of dollars will flow to new players who figure out how to get "cited" by LLMs. finally. 7. most ai apps are designed for websites not mobile. ai-first consumer mobile is really interesting. we saw with cal ai and the looksmaxing apps, that this is just the beginning. 8. every product launch needs video now - i'm watching great features die on landing pages while quick screen recordings go viral and drive thousands of signups. the social feeds have spoken. 9. what used to require millions in vc funding now needs an api key, some prompts and a tweet. this fires me up!! 10. faster than ever to launch something of quality. faster than ever to pivot. knowing when to pivot is an art. 11. i dont understand anyone who sitting in business school right now. literally everything is being rewritten. 12. who is building the app store for ai agents? companies will browse and hire pre-trained, specialized agents like we download apps 13. the way to stop a big player to compete with you in this new world is to own distribution. 14. you can spend a lot of time thinking about politics or checking emails or on social in the name of research, but not really moving forward anywhere. 15. we're about to see software companies capture value that used to belong to agencies, consulting firms, and entire departments. 16. we're about to go from "there's an app for that" to "there's your app for that. 17. minimum viable audience is more important than minimum viable product 18. I don't know how long this window stays open, but we're in a moment where all the rules of building businesses are being rewritten. and for the people who are playing with this new tools, putting stuff out there, creating audiences/communities, you've got an unfair advantage. i hope you get some sleep.

@maxresnick American exceptionalism at its finest

Its very clear that New York City is becoming the global center of the cryptocurrency industry, despite the incompetence of US regulatory bodies and high cost of living. Either you move your company to New York City or you put your company at a huge disadvantage.

@ki_young_ju Definitely will make markets more efficient but doubt it can fully eliminate crises—hubris will still exist as it is human nature to take trades to the extreme. JPY and LUNA carry trades for example

Imagine a future where all economic activities are tracked on-chain. Real-time data will enhance market efficiency and could potentially eliminate economic crises. From their perspective, the financial system of 2024 will seem as primitive as trading seashells. Analysts today are like blind men trying to identify an elephant, unable to distinguish whether they are touching its trunk or its leg. It's reminiscent of how medieval doctors made diagnoses without any scientific basis. Current financial analysis is far from scientific. In a world where financial data is transparently calculated on-chain in real-time, prediction and estimation become obsolete. All the root causes of economic events will be clear through on-chain data. It’s frustrating to witness the slow adoption of #Bitcoin and tokenized assets. We're in a primitive financial system.

You mean reckless western addiction to overleveraging taking advantage of a conservative nation's unwillingness to indulge in conspicuous consumption is ripping through obscene tech valuations? Never would have guessed
