Nice highlights reel! Thanks for hosting a wonderful conference @TheBlock__ @Emergence_Conf Looking forward to defending my title next year! Rise new challengers, I'm ready 😎

People building agent harness systems and then selling them to other people building agent harness systems who sell them to yet another group of people building agent harness systems.

I know crypto (esp Ethereum) absolutely sucks right now, I feel it and have taken hits too I almost quit crypto in 2019, I was going totally broke, couldn't find any clients that I didn't think were scammers, crypto seemed absolutely dead, and I wanted to just go back to doing M&A and never hear the word crypto again Five months later DeFi summer happened, I was quickly a multi-millionaire as were a lot of others. No guarantees of a repeat but I just feel every day from what we're working on at MetaLeX and what our clients/colleagues/partners are working on, no matter how remote it feels now, crypto and Ethereum will have another great breakout again.

No hate at all and I really respect that but at the end of the day it's also 'only' another harness. I'd be genuinely curious to hear how the companies are doing that are actually using @polsia

@binji_x Yes please🫡

@cobie Time to sell and go away huh

Didn’t realize it’s already May

@basche42 @lex_node Which is where we're at basically

@lex_node @ogiberstein I think that wallet UX without much compromise is possible and isn’t what’s holding things back but that last point of yours should haunt people who are bullish on FedFi I am bullish on it too but eventually isn’t someone going to realize they don’t need blockchains for it?

I really did not understand how big of an issue wallet UX is until running a crypto app. If (like me) you're a crypto OG / onchain maxi or you grew up at least using some DOS or something, you have a mental block against realizing that most people just do not know how to use a wallet--even for regular transactions, never-mind something complex like using a hardware wallet, bridging. or where you might need to switch between wallets for a single transaction flow, etc. It's deeply confusing to them in a way I don't think can really be fixed. At the same time, imo, most of the benefits of crypto are destroyed by "embedded wallets"--they are essentially custodial, and they also pose technical/UX puzzles of their own, just ones that surface later--i.e., when you have to get your money out of that specific app. Until this is solved, crypto app developers are stuck between a rock and a hard place--either preserve the fundamental self-sovereignty benefits of crypto and cap your adoption rather dramatically, or raise the question of why you are using crypto rails at all by making your app into a custodial fintech app that happens to use crypto.

At the rate things are going, tiger moms better get ready to do plumbing in a data center and bring their kid along🫡

Are they actually serious that there is no dark mode for Claude Design?

@joakimhi @megaeth @NamikMuduroglu @ImperiumPaper congrats!

Hey everyone - wanted to announce that a few weeks ago I joined the GTM team at @megaeth focusing on making sure MegaApps become successful and MegaDefi keeps growing Im excited to join the likes of @NamikMuduroglu, @ImperiumPaper and the rest of the team, aiming to prove over time why Mega is different. Not many know this, but my career has been quite wildly diverse: I spent most of my web2 career working on app growth for companies like Bolt, as well as working with the giants of the mobile gaming industry. Yet most will know me from the past 4 years of being an intense defi user, degen, market participant and group chat spammer. I am glad to be able to be combining these two passions, bringing in the incentive aware UA spending thinking from web2 to Mega, as well as helping build a defi system that I as a long time user would enjoy exploring. My focus on Apps will be two fold: 1) Helping shape Terminal, reinforcing its value as a curated discovery layer for apps on Mega and helping build its incentive system to promote breakout apps. Am especially looking to working with teams focusing on something new and to reward teams that are Mega and USDM aligned. If you are a dev building something new, especially if it's something that hasn't been done before or is a onchain experiment, PLEASE reach out! 2) Helping the most mega-aligned apps navigate their go-to-market plans. Apps should get help with launch strategy, distribution, positioning, and the right connections. Founders should be focused on execution, not blocked by figuring out who to talk to, how to launch, or how to tell their story. It is no longer just about building new protocols. It is about bringing real collateral onchain. And where else to build that than the chain built for super fast blocktimes and millisecond latency oracle updates. @ImperiumPaper will still be the main person for USDM growth. We already made a strong first step here with our collaboration with @aave, hitting over $1B in deposits a few days ago. There is a long backlog of high-quality collateral looking to work with us, in addition to native teams like @brix_money and @CapApp. Looking forward to seeing how we can enable them across MegaDeFi. TL DR: Joining megaeth, helping build a curated experience of apps, building an incentivization model backed by actual economics, and making Mega by the best place for onchain finance on EVM. Mega GDP go up ⬆️

Great move by the @megaeth chads 🔥

when i was younger, i was very insecure. i did this kind of thing too. over time you learn that it is critical to be truthful and not misleading about every single thing you do. i had to learn this lesson the hard way, but boy, have i internalized it. UNDERSELL yourself.

@functi0nZer0 Haven't we all...

I have resigned from Keir Starmer’s government.

Dude in the middle looks like @cobie would have looked like if things had gone differently for him😅

@bread_ @zachxbt Wouldn't you expect them to look like smart hackers, not retarded kids

@zachxbt How do these guys always look exactly how you imagine they'd look?
