@SokeyeA @okoyedonaldson moniepoint needs to buy every promising pos business if they want peace of mind. on the other hand, chowdeck has less money but has the opportunity to be the most canonical startup in their gen if they beat MP to it. i want the latter to happen. it’s most interesting outcome.

@SokeyeA @okoyedonaldson that enterprise data is the holy grail and what makes the chowdeck-moniepoint competition compelling. loans are more profitable than payments. if chowdeck becomes the delivery app and pos for most businesses, they can easily be some the financing provider for them.

That comparison between Chowdeck and Moniepoint is not the same way to look at it. Chowdeck = Food delivery (online) Moniepoint = Payment OS for restaurant (offline) They are not competitor in anyway, infact they can co-exist.

@imoteda @FiredandIced_ is this the ojuju font?

@Ssaasquatch is this like a dad joke? larry page?

Interesting that Larry Fink and I are on the same page

it’s not “hidden,” trust me

@jerallaire @sasai i think you’re quoting the wrong Sasai account, unc. but nice work.

Emerging markets are the true frontier of stablecoin utility. Our collaboration with @Sasai Fintech is a massive step toward how we bring USDC to high-growth payment corridors across Africa. USDC people across countries and the world. Exciting times ahead with Strive Masiyiwa and his team. circle.com/pressroom/circ…

i love a delightful long sentence. take my breath away, literally

adewale’s art is tooo literal for me. but at least he is doing his thing.

@_mtchy_ why would anyone have thought nippy is short for nipples????

Is Nippyy short for Nipples? What am I building? What is Nippyy? What does it do? What does it mean? These are real questions that I have been asked about our Product, Nippyy. Picture this: you are trying to send, spend, or receive money globally, and you either can't, or when you can, it’s either slow or comes with outrageous fees, rates, and deductions. I am sure that was easy to picture because it's the reality for many of us. Every solution out there has tried to fix these issues, but a gap still remains, and that's the gap Nippyy is coming to fill. At @nippyyhq, we are building the final solution for Seamless, Borderless Payments. Sounds too ambitious, right? But it's true. Nippyy will allow users to; - Receive and Send Money Globally with little to NO FEES. - Enjoy the best Market Rates. - Send, spend and receive money from anywhere in the world instantly. - Maintain a single global identity, allowing you to spend like a local in any country. - do so much. I believe that spending your money should not be as stressful as earning it. The flow of global money has been turbulent for the longest time, and Nippyy is here to make it Laminar across all layers and sectors. Follow the journey.

these are nice pictures

this babe is so beautiful man

Nah I've been in deep talks about putting ai classes in public schools and underprivileged environments... google, nvidia , Claude, x , meta holler at me let's change the world real quick! Give ai to the "hungry watch the incredible happen!

I co-founded Augur, the first decentralized prediction market, and was founding CSO of Gnosis, the second. Polymarket still runs on Gnosis contracts. I'm glad prediction markets finally broke through. But I'm not going to pretend that what's being scaled right now is what we built these systems to do.

i think care for the old is the most feminist applications of ai.

VCs have been rage-baiting all month. why? op is an investor in UBER which bootstrapped everything at any cost. they paid drivers to stay online (even w/o rides) to give users the impression that the app had more drivers than it did. cold start book called it “flint-stoning”

@mide_tkh did anyone say your “Christian beauty business” is not viable? i think the tension was around whether or not it was a religious grift..

A room + panel of investors/ venture capitalists called my Christian beauty business viable, and picked me winner of a contest. In a pool of businesses spanning different fields - tech, food, ecology. Yeah go offline and pay attention to the voices that matter 👌
