Block $XYZ has copped a lot of heat since 4Q25 earnings. People are claiming that AI was a pretext for the ~4k person reduction - a kneejerk reaction to slow growth, an inefficient org & a threatened moat. Whilst not wanting to ruin a good story with facts, let's look at some 🧵:

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.
I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.
May God bless America.

I realized something else AI has changed about coding: you don't get stuck anymore.
Programming used to be punctuated by episodes of extreme frustration, when a tricky bug ground things to a halt. That doesn't happen anymore.

> feed it to ChatGPT and AlphaFold
> zero background in biology
> identify mutated proteins, match them to drug targets
> design a custom mRNA cancer vaccine from scratch
> genomics professor is “gobsmacked” that some puppy lover did this on his own
> need ethics approval to administer it
> red tape takes longer than designing the vaccine
> 3 months, finally approved
> drive 10 hours to get rosie her first injection

We trained a new flood forecasting model designed to predict flash floods in urban areas up to 24 hours in advance.
To help address a flash floods data gap, we created Groundsource: a new AI methodology using Gemini to identify 2.6M+ historical events across 150+ countries.
We’re open-sourcing this dataset to advance global research, and urban flash flood forecasts are live now in Flood Hub to help communities stay safe.

My sources on this matter have also told me that one of the items in CLARITY that may be on the chopping block in exchange for Coinbase/the crypto industry getting interest on stablecoins are the BRCA protections for developers.
Deeply disturbing.

@brian_armstrong @TFTC21 I have sources that say otherwise, not you personally but your team and/or lobbyists. Will you commit to walk away from the market structure bill if it doesn’t include the de minimis exemption for bitcoin like you did stablecoin yield?
