Gm fam, $VELVET has been extremely volatile this week with lots of speculative price action. Markets go up & down, but this doesn’t change our direction: we’re continuing to roll out VelvetX - our new invite-only SocialFAI app to give you a real advantage onchain. To new folks who’re just discovering Velvet: we appreciate the attention and want to make it clear - we’ve been building full time since 2022 through pivots, bull & bear markets, and already supported more than 100k onchain users (and counting) trading across Base, BNB Chain, Solana, Ethereum & other ecosystems. We’re still grinding, and more excited than ever about what’s ahead - stay tuned for more updates next week!

Introducing OpenGradient Chat, a privacy-first generative AI platform. Every frontier model in one app. We can't read what you type, and neither can anyone else. Finally, an AI you can tell anything. (1/n)

hi Mike, you are right we should be more explicit and louder about this we spoke about this for opengradient while for Deus its on xmaquina article we will make sure its much clearer in the coming titan launches (that said, every titan launch airdrop to vevirtual stakers is different as the deal is negotiated on per case basis)

Early stage crypto investing is dead. Pre-Seed and Seed rounds used to fund this entire industry. Today the money is all late-stage and M&A. Everyone midcurving this chart sees the end of crypto VC, but what it actually shows: 1) Early stage crypto is the least competitive it's been since 2019 = much less bidding wars, FOMO rounds or inflated terms 2) The ratio of quality founders to capital chasing them has never been this attractive, hence they're raising at floor valuations 3) Thanks to AI, a 5 person team now ships what used to take 50. Seed dollars have never gone further 4) Capital stopped being the differentiator. What founders actually need is hands-on partners, and barely anyone is left providing that (= Moonrock) While the rest of the industry is mourning early stage, I see a shopping paradise ahead of us. We're doubling down. 

We’re excited to partner with BitRobot Network, Lightwheel AI, Singapore Institute of Technology and contributors like Jie Tan (Deepmind), Steve Xie (Lightwheel), Michael Cho (FrodoBots), etc. Looking forward to push the boundary of humanoid loco-manipulation in this Humanoid IKEA Assembly Challenge!
