The new stack for global finance, mapped 👇

Every AI agent deserves a crypto wallet. In fact, there will be more AI agents transacting online than humans very soon. x402 is the internet payments layer (which has been missing for the last 30 years), and will enable this. The new x402 foundation will exist under the Linux Foundation, with @Coinbase, @Cloudflare and @Stripe as key contributors. Once all agents start transacting natively on the internet at scale, entirely new product and business opportunities will open up.

@lrettig @NEARGovernance Epic year for NEAR! 👏🏼

My favorite 2025 recap so far :) It's been a big year for NEAR and I'm proud to have been a small part of an amazing team that's shipped A LOT of powerful stuff. We're just getting started, especially on the @NEARGovernance side - stay tuned and expect a lot more in 2026! 🥂

@brian_armstrong happy holidays

Happy Holidays from my family to yours

@garrytan massive new chapter for @coinbase!

Coinbase just launched an Instagram, a Robinhood, an Adyen, a Venmo and a Mastercard today 👀

@lrettig 3-4 months away!

I crossed a threshold a month or two ago: I'm now using AI tools every single day. But, not all the time! Not yet. For now, they sleep when I'm asleep. Next threshold: running AI tools (agents?) around the clock. I'm guessing that's about a year away, wdyt?

@sungmo_apac16z @a16zcrypto Congrats 👏🏼

I'm honored to share that I will be joining @a16zcrypto as Head of APAC go-to-market. a16z crypto backs exceptional founders, providing not just capital but also hands-on support to help them grow into transformative companies. Now, a16z crypto is opening an office in Seoul and extending go-to-market support for its portfolio companies to encompass the Asia-Pacific region — one of the fastest-growing hubs for crypto innovation, deep talent, and bold founders. APAC is already shaping the future of web3, and I believe its impact will only grow from here. Through the network, experience, and relationships I’ve built over the years in this industry, I’ll help a16z crypto’s founders access not just a new market, but the regional context and knowledge they need to scale (and vice versa). I want to express my deep gratitude to @cdixon and @AAlbaneseNY for putting their trust in me, and I look forward to being a part of the incredible GTM team — @meigga, @lordvolth, and @cc_crowley. If you’re building in crypto, web3, or any other frontier tech and interested in APAC — I’d love to connect.

The Fusaka upgrade is today. Ethereum is securely scaling.
