The true test of chains is when they become interoperable

@awjuliani now add a tax feature

I'm trying to figure out where to live next, and one big consideration is the climate. So naturally I made a tool that represents monthly average temperatures for cities as 3D rings so they can be compared more easily. Check it out: awjuliani.github.io/weather-explor…

@uttam_singhk I'm rolling rn

banger but only 1% of the CT will get this joke

@roundtripgod Would be interesting to see @Polymarket bets using this

This thing is like if Teenage Engineering designed a Gameboy for loosing money I want it

@qedk_ @monad @AustinGreen @mijovic988 @HelloShreyas @fikunmi_ap @marcuspangeth @iamvukasin chad joining, chad team!

excited to announce that i've joined the protocol engineering team at @monad to build for the next era of decentralized applications. i'm really looking forward to working closely with @AustinGreen @mijovic988 @HelloShreyas @fikunmi_ap @marcuspangeth @iamvukasin @danielvf @noah_eth @keoneHD and the rest of the wonderful folks in the engineering org. and big kudos to @WillCollinsRec @ackenn_ and Annelise for making the onboarding super smooth. lastly, if you're building on monad or want to get started with building on monad, i want to hear, learn from and help each and every one of you, i'll be in New York next week and Buenos Aires the week after, hit me up via DMs and i'll be more than happy to get you situated. to winning. more soon.

@jshguo Those are a great set of album covers

You don't like math because you don't follow me. Check out the beautiful, intricate pattern generated by this equation: sin (sin (x) + cos (y)) = cos (sin (x*y) + cos (x))

@uttam_singhk Classic noise polluter tactics on ct

idk why CT is so hyped about Kalshi - it’s not even a crypto app. you literally need full KYC (name, DOB, SSN, US address) feels like most of the volume is coming from paid content campaigns. they seem to hire KOLs to fool CT into thinking it’s crypto.

@sxtvik Catch the signal

People in crypto keep throwing events and traveling the world, to do what exactly? I used to be naive to think it was helping onboarding but that’s not happening at these closed off parties. So what’s the goal of spending millions here?

@felixleezd Interesting, seems to be made with Framer

This design portfolio is breaking the internet. You'll be inspired by it's beautiful craft—truly stands out in today's job market.

@naruto11eth On similar lines, if everyone is building the next shiny chain, who is using it?

if everyone in web3 is doing a podcast, who is listening?

@redhairshanks86 Adoption does not have to be loud

why i dislike crypto founders so much i got into crypto in 2016 and back then a large proportion of market participants cared about the core values like decentralisation, immutability, censorship resistance etc. today, hardly 2% still care about it, the rest of the "builders" just want to make money there is NOTHING wrong with wanting to make money. it is a good thing. but if you want to make money, JUST SAY THAT and don't frame it like you are saving the world jesse's words here are "we are gonna have this positive impact on the world (...) and figure out how these new tools can unlock new systems for ALL OF US and so (...) we are going to be exploring a network token" shut your mouth there is precisely one reason why base is launching a token and it is to max extract one last time for coinbase shareholders. and that by itself is not a bad thing, the bad thing is how jesse frames it like they want to save the world when indeed they just want to max extract and this is true for ALL crypto companies base worked great without a token for years, you don't need a token polymarket, pumpfun, and all other dapps work perfectly fine without a token, yet, they all have one. for the sole reason that it is the easiest way to make more money for the team and vcs. and i would be ok with it if they were just honest about it instead of virtual signalling like a blue haired liberal imagine that uber, spotify, airbnb and every single app had their own currency. makes 0 sense. they have company shares and it is the mandate of the board and management to maximise shareholder value, often against the common good. but i am ok with it, bc it is transparent and honest only in our industry do we have people like sandy from scroll or cringe jesse pretending they are saving the world when indeed they are just enriching themselves can't listen to these people talk...

@patrickc @tempo All this is great, but where is the whitepaper?

Introducing @Tempo. At Stripe, we care about high-throughput, low-latency payments use cases. As the use of stablecoins (and crypto more broadly) grows across Stripe, Bridge, and Privy, we found that existing blockchains are not optimized for them. For example, it's valuable for real-world financial applications that fees be denominated in a fiat currency that makes sense to the user, but existing blockchains denominate their fees in blockchain-specific tokens. Batch transfers are very useful in payments, but much less important in trading. Bitcoin does ~5 TPS; Ethereum does ~20 TPS, some (like Base and Solana) get to ~1k TPS, but Stripe peaks at >10k TPS. And so on. As such, we decided to incubate Tempo, a new blockchain, in partnership with Paradigm. We think of Tempo as the payments-oriented L1, optimized for high-scale, real-world financial services applications. Tempo is an independent company, with Stripe and Paradigm as the first investors. To ensure that Tempo serves a broad array of needs, we're excited to be working with Anthropic, Coupang, Deutsche Bank, DoorDash, Lead Bank, Mercury, Nubank, OpenAI, Revolut, Shopify, Standard Chartered, and Visa as initial design partners. We will start with an independent and diverse validator set, and plan to move towards permissionless validation. Tempo will have a built-in stablecoin AMM to enable platform neutrality with respect to different stablecoins, and Stripe itself will of course continue to work with many chains as first-class partners. We hope that Tempo makes it easier for things like payment acceptance, global payouts, remittances, microtransactions, tokenized deposits, agentic payments, and more, to move onchain. The Tempo team is 15 people today, led by the terrific @matthuang. If you're interested in building Tempo, get in touch! And if you're interested in partnering, reach out to partners@tempo.xyz.

@materkel @uttam_singhk @worldnetwork

@uttam_singhk Do we require proof of eyeball for this?

is there a prediction market on whether an account is a bot or a real human? bc ngl it’s getting f*king hard to tell anymore

@cormachayden_ Wrong platform. Wrong Audience. Right app.

@RahulDesignWeb3 + Davinci

One thing I have noticed is that if you wanna make the most customizable UX, always make Nodes - Blender is an amazing example of this.

@nityasnotes What do they know that others don't

we just raised $85M and are HIRING a lot of ppl are dming me about roles reply with one cool thing you've built and I'll fast track you to an interview if it's good

@AdityaKalsaria Use srefs (style references) if using MidJourney. A good guide here midlibrary.io/midguide/midjo… And for videos, this should help you for inspiration ulazai.com/directory/

My focus for next few weeks are - Image generation - AI generated poster - Proper Prompt writing - Explore higgsfield and nano banana in deep - trying out AI videos out of both platform Any suggestion or tips to get better prompt writing and generate AI vids and images??
