If it’s resilient and settles fast, I’m into it. Preferably permissionless, occasionally over-engineered.

It's a fallacy to think you should drop out of college because you have an idea that has to be implemented right now, or it will be too late. If you stay in school you'll have other and better ideas.

Founders should replace take-home assignments with a simple form that asks candidates to submit a URL to their Claude session

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.

Update: I’m excited to announce that I’ve joined @blend_money as Africa Lead. I’ll be building alongside one of the strongest teams @mannyornothing, @BlockChainJimbo & @criptolawyer to solve a painful problem for fintechs and neobanks. The last year of my career has honestly felt unreal. I joined Alchemy as the only African on the SDR team and left a far better operator than when I joined. Grateful to @glennonchain and the entire team for the experience 💙 Now comes Blend, a team I’ve admired for years. From the first conversation, the clarity, execution speed, and long-term vision were obvious. It genuinely felt like a project I should have been part of from day one. Why Blend? Over the last two years, my focus shifted heavily toward stablecoins. Not because of hype, but because stablecoins became a financial lifeline across Africa when local currencies failed, banking rails broke, and cross-border payments became painful. Fintechs solved access and movement of money. But most still lack the one thing that keeps users coming back to traditional banks: a savings layer. The problem is that launching compliant yield products is hard. You need DeFi expertise, treasury management, compliance infrastructure, audits, monitoring, integrations, legal coordination, and months of engineering work just to get to market. Most teams either avoid it completely or take on unnecessary protocol risk trying to build internally. Blend changes that. Blend is essentially plug-and-play savings infrastructure for fintechs, neobanks, wallets, and stablecoin products. One integration gives teams access to diversified yield infrastructure across tokenized T-Bills, RWAs, and institutional-grade DeFi strategies, fully non-custodial, compliant, and live in hours instead of months. No overhead. No DeFi team required. No custody risk. No massive integration cycle. Just a simple way to help users earn on idle stablecoin balances while creating a new revenue stream through yield spreads. My Mission: Ensure I provide value for fintechs & Neobanks across Africa, If you’re building a fintech/neobank product, we just opened a 15-partner cohort with integration support + 0bps for 90 days. And if you’re a regional lead for a chain or neobank, I’d love to work together to bring the best businesses onchain. To my new team, I can’t be bullish enough & the next few months will be explosive. 💚 LFG!
