How to write a forwardable email
TDLR- I want to just press “f” in superhuman, comment on on top of what you’ve said, and press send. Make it easy.
I get asked to pass along notes all the time. I proactively offer to do so just as often. Here’s how to help me (or anyone else) help you get what you want out of this interaction.
Do This
-Write in your voice about yourself. “I’m Yoni, a partner at Slow…”
-Include all the context the person will need (who you are, why you want to meet them, links, etc.)
-Send individual emails for each person you want me to forward to (“would love to get connected to Yoni”)
-Keep it short.
Don’t Do This
-Write as though you are me talking about you (“I met this guy named Yoni”). I promise you it won’t sound like me, at least not to me and it makes it harder to just press forward

@zxmbiedrool so true haha
on a positive note, we have a teacher & staff that we trust -- certainly not a given

Initial sticker shock of daycare costs here in New York is only exceeded by the realization your kid will be out sick every other week 🤦♂️

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.

One of my best investments last year was a Wemby signed game worn jersey from his first triple double game his rookie year.
Inspired us to go hard on @GrailCo to make it easy for the whole world to get access to high value real world collectibles.

@GrailCo @jongall45 Just wrapped my head around this.
You have 50 of the 5K population in your vault right now — Insane.

@memphis_mantis @jongall45 We got ~1% of Wemby Silver Prizm on base so far
Another pack drop coming real soon

@GrailCo dropped their genesis packs.
Bought 5 for $75 and pulled a Wemby PSA 10 rookie ($3k card)
40x investment and my first PSA 10 by trying a new product.
Now that the Pistons are out, let's go Spurs!

@liamihorne @tempo @mpp 🔥
can it handle auto-renewal,
essentially a fixed price per billing period, across multiple / indefinite billing periods?
English
Onchain subscriptions are live on @tempo and @mpp! Continuing to add more key payments primitives that should “just work”
Machine Payments Protocol@mpp
MPP now supports subscriptions, starting with stablecoins on @tempo. Subscriptions are built for flows including: • Recurring API access and MCP tools • Paid plans and memberships • Usage bundles that renew on a schedule Live on Tempo, with more payment methods coming soon.

today any artist, anywhere in the world, can make a digital object
and using a computer and the internet
reach a viewer on the other side of the world for that work directly
and if the artist decides to go further
and use a permissionless and public network like @ethereum
they can have that object recorded, purchased, transferred, and collected
it's been six years for me, and this idea is still so profound
the internet has become the native medium for communication, discovery, identity, culture, and value exchange
and with blockchains
digital artworks can now be owned, exchanged, and viewed publicly over the internet
crypto art has very clearly fallen out of favor across broader markets
but the value props of this technology haven’t changed
tens of thousands still participate daily
artists making work
collectors collecting work
viewers viewing work
for the folks that remain
many desire a space that makes this network much more legible
collections, collectors, history, market, context
across every standard, blockchain, protocol, platform
all in one place
stitched together
@thefunnyguysNFT and @0xmetaclass are building the canonical marketplace for crypto art
they are stewards who deeply understand the things that made blockchain-based artwork special to begin with
and are unwavering about why the space will impact many more creative authors and collectors in the future
- non-intermediated ownership of digital artworks
- trust-minimized architecture
- peer to peer exchange
- internet-based discovery
i'm v excited for our team @collab_currency to support @raster_art
and for the next decade of crypto art ♥️

@DarenMatsuoka awesome viz.
curious to see how this distribution changes as agents make up a greater % of onchain activity / transactions over time.
English
A sign that the crypto industry is maturing:
Onchain revenue is now much more distributed.
English
@eddylazzarin Agreed.
How do we feel about the market perception of pump(dot)fun having highest onchain revenue % share at >20%?
English
The "revenue is bad" story is usually just cope (with some interesting exceptions).
It's powerful and often smart to minimize fees and subsidize growth, but you need to test pricing and learn where you can consistently take revenue.
Crypto is learning.

I'm quite excited about these product updates!
The homepage shows top sales in digital art as well as live ones, which you can't find anywhere else, and highlights some great releases.
And the collector profile filters, in my biased opinion, is a game-changer. Filtering by artist is simply a new experience for digital art collectors that nobody cracked before. Only possible because of all the data we spent +12mo painstakingly aggregating.
Try it for yourself here: raster.art/collector/le-r…
