I remember when I first moved to the US as a dentist. I had savings in Bitcoin, some cash & was excited to start fresh. My first week, I needed to buy so many things online, but guess what... no credit/nor credit card. I had to deal with a shitty 200$ secured card from BoA. That's one more reason I set out to build @BitcoinonCards with @hayastanbtc & @soy_libre_hoy Has this happened to any of y'all?

sunday’s allbridge exploit was not a bitcoin lending failure. but it is still a bitcoin card lesson. every bridge added between collateral and card spend adds more than a click. it adds another system that can pause, fail, or be attacked. better ux and better risk architecture often point in the same direction: fewer hops. Allbridge Core pauses protocol after $1.65 million flash loan exploit: onchain analysts theblock.co/post/408855/al…

a fintech pitch is really three pitches at once. one for the user. one for the investor. one for the regulated partners who make the product possible. if those three stories contradict each other, the company eventually feels it.

@MarkKilaghbian No way man. I'm cooked

You might get rich trying to save civilization But you won't save civilization trying to get rich

@MarkKilaghbian Consensus 2026, every single investor I met was looking for prediction market products. The idea to make ppl gamble their savings with ease inside their portfolio apps

No one is talking about it But a16z can’t stop funding it

@WOLF_Bitcoin_ Automated liquidation of your BTC to spend on a card is stupid. @BitcoinonCards allows you to just deposit BTC is a selfcustodial vault and then swipe/auto borrow and pay back.

@WOLF_Bitcoin_ Selling your Bitcoin sucks

@RealJackPoor I think STX is an interesting pick. Also Bitcoin PEPE 😉

If you only have $100, I think it's foolish to buy any of the top 100 coins. They may 2-5x from here, but your life won't change with $100 Don't obsess over finding the next 100x. Obsess over finding a way to invest another $100-$1000.

@AlexesNakamoto Bears are cute

It’s time to shut the bears up.

we'll be selecting BETA users from our waitlist to test the product we've built for the bitcoin:native family sign up!

@defyneric An example of consistency for everyone building in the space

Reintroducing myself to the new algo.. -Previously founded a small No KYC Crypto Card and scaled it to $500k in volume -Shut it down for various moral and regulatory reasons -During that time learned a ton about the behind the scenes of fintech (was speaking with Rain when they had sub < 12 programs live -Grew audience of almost 7k on X in 5 months by posting about my knowledge in the fintech/neobank space -Joined @FlexSuperApp to help scale our stablecoin and global banking product. Grew from a $500M valuation to over $1.2B in 4 month (announced $70m raise yesterday) Now building the future of finance and sharing all my knowledge about the space along the way. Come along for the next chapter!

@traderInosuke Bruh Bitcoin PEPE 😁

What memecoin will make me rich?

@kaylaparrilla 🤣🤑

“Bitcoin is going to zero, it’s a waste of time” Me:

@SimplyBitcoin When you're mining in a pool they got automated payouts to your preferred wallet. Exchanges should have that too...

Do you like the idea of a Bitcoin exchange that has to send BTC to your cold storage wallet immediately?

@jeazous insanee

“Why don’t you move to America?” My average summer morning in Italy:

@defyneric @zaidrmn truly well deserved bro you got that special special

Our CEO, @zaidrmn, sent me this DM back in February. At the time, Flex was valued at $500M. Today, we announced a $70M raise at a $1.2B valuation. That’s a $700M increase in valuation in 4 months. The speed at which we’re executing at is unbelievable. $10B next.

It is confirmed. Mature adults gamble with #Pokémon cards during weekend pool parties.

@Octop3s @0xDani @lava_xyz Hmmm you guys might have some outdated info. Not really self custodial using DLC anymore. blockspace.media/insight/bitcoi…

@0xDani @lava_xyz Yes ser

If you’re an OG Bitcoiner, I think @lava_xyz is a crypto card tailored for you: • Borrow against your BTC to access dollars instantly at low rates. • Earn 6.5% yield on your USD funding BTC-backed loans. • Earn BTC every time you swipe your card. • Move money in fiat and crypto to and fro. Anybody offering the same thing?

in 2023 i accepted to teach the history of money to 6 to 12 year-olds, in a sunday school setting. it was a humbling experience because quite frankly i did not expect them to grasp the concept that currency must have scarcity, be divisible, immutable, easy to transport/store & verifiable. it was rewarding to see their excitement about bitcoin. id love to do it all over again. this chart from River is super cool. brought back memories

Only if there was a seamless flow that allowed you to go from Bitcoin collateral to spending on a credit card, that runs on DEFI so you get low interest rates (3-5%). You keep repaying, you get rewarded & if you miss it sucks less. You keep buying BTC growing your spending power. Life is good.

Credit card payments are painful Paying credit card interest is even worse Always pay on time
