Whether you're building AI agents or AI data centers, what matters most is the quality of the underlying governance system. Thanks to @get_hydrahost and the El Salvador team @theaiagencysv for inviting us to a great summit!

In 2017, Morgan Stanley said 'Bitcoin's true value could be zero.' This week, Morgan Stanley celebrated the launch of its Bitcoin ETF — its most successful ETF launch ever.



Charles Schwab just went full crypto. 🚨 35,000,000 retail clients. $12,000,000,000,000 in assets. Direct Bitcoin and Ethereum trading. Starting today. No ETF wrapper. No middleman. Just pure BTC and ETH through America's largest broker. Coinbase didn't see this coming. Robinhood didn't see this coming. Wall Street's biggest retail platform just became a crypto exchange. 35 million Americans woke up with a crypto broker today. They just don't know it yet.

At the 2026 Miami Economic Forum, hosted by the Economic Club of Miami, we explored an innovative model for economic development and investment in the Western Hemisphere. In this panel, @erickbrimen (CEO of @ProsperaGlobal) and @joeyyusef (Founder, @nomadlayer) discuss how advanced special economic zones can attract global capital, create jobs, and accelerate economic growth by focusing on one of the most critical factors for investors: governance and rule of law. Their conversation explores: • Why Latin America may be one of the most promising regions for investment today • How Próspera in Honduras is pioneering a new generation of special economic zones • The concept of regulatory reciprocity, allowing companies to operate under trusted global regulatory frameworks • Emerging opportunities in medical tourism, biotech, manufacturing, and agro-processing • How innovative governance models could strengthen economic integration across the Western Hemisphere ▶️ Watch the full panel discussion here: youtu.be/g1NFL6IlzvA This conversation is one example of the kind of forward-looking discussions happening throughout the year at the Economic Club of Miami.
