@quietluke @whop keep up the great work! #realhoopersknow

There’s a new creative team @whop ... A month ago we walked in through the front door. Two days later we did billboards for Times Sq. Our first projects are just starting to roll out. There's much to do, but it’s a pleasure to wake up every day and build with my best friends @_ywgi. iykyk.

@landon20s @claudeai I only recognize one Claude in Chicago tbh 🤷‍♂️

Chicago’s first @claudeai meetup is tomorrow

@abearsomewhere @whop @CoinflowLabs Love to see it! 🔥

Coinflow Crypto is now live on @Whop 🎉 This enables users to pay with 38+ cryptocurrencies across 6 chains using Whop Payments. Now available to all Whop users.

@StuVH Oh hell yesssss

my Saturday night just got crazy

🚨 Visa’s VAMP rules are changing. Are you ready? #VAMP threshold drops from 2.2% → 1.5%, meaning merchants who were safe before may now be flagged for excessive fraud. @SirDigitalDan, CEO & Co-Founder at Coinflow, breaks down what this means (and what to do about it) in under 3 minutes. 🎥 youtube.com/watch?v=TBUQlj…

Been waiting a decade+ for @Shapalicious & @MediaByAP to finally run the two-man game on their own full time show. Seeing them launch their new show today made me so damn proud. I’ve watched these guys grind for years in that market—they deserve it all. Go get em, fellas! 💯

@StuVH count me in 💯

When I’m retired this will be me and the boys

We are no longer Bullish on Chicago We are instead Chicagomaxxing

#ETHDenver with @raincards and @withpersona was one for the books. We curated smart conversations, new partnerships, and a packed room of leaders from @Anchorage, @binance, @OndoFinance, and more to kick off the week in #Denver. Grateful to everyone who showed up, shared ideas, and helped make the night unforgettable. More to come! But for now, here are a few highlights 📸👇

How I’m logging off on a Friday after the @CoinflowLabs team hit our best revenue day ever (yet) 🤑

New case study: @Felixpago 🤝 Coinflow Félix built the first WhatsApp-native #remittance platform. Their bottleneck? Multi-day settlement cycles. “Instant settlement wasn’t optional. It was fundamental to how remittances work.” After switching to Coinflow: 📈 Acceptance rate: 98.16% → 99.12% 📉 Decline rate: 1.84% → 0.88% 🏦 Bank declines: 188 → 23 👤 User error declines: 905 → 201 Instant stablecoin settlement = real liquidity + better UX Read more 👇 coinflow.cash/blog/felix-cas…
