I am very pleased to confirm that the SEC has moved to dismiss all claims against me, Tron Foundation, and BitTorrent Foundation. Today’s resolution brings closure, but I never stopped building. I will continue to focus on accelerating innovation in the United States and around the world and look forward to working with the SEC to develop guidance and regulations for crypto going forward. The future is bright.

SERVICE-AS-A-SOFTWARE. That is the real opportunity for 90% of us. I keep watching smart people pour months into building beautiful UI applications that Anthropic and OpenAI are going to absorb in a single product update. It will feel ARCHAIC in two years that we used to click through user interfaces to navigate databases and complete tasks. Agents just do it. One prompt. Done. 90% of the entire application layer is going to get eaten over the next decade. The dashboards. The forms. The CRUD. All of it. Where does that leave you? Exactly where the money is. Service-as-a-software. E.g. An ad agency that bakes its winning playbooks into AI systems and serves 1,000 clients with the quality they used to give 10. An IP law firm that encodes decades of expertise into AI skill files and sells legal services at infinite scale with near-zero marginal cost. A consulting firm. An accounting practice. A creative studio. Pick your vertical. The backend is AI. The frontend is your expertise packaged as a service. The moat is that YOU actually know what good looks like in your domain. You're not competing with OpenAI. You're competing with other service providers who are still doing everything manually. That's not a hard fight to win. Encode your knowledge. Automate your delivery. Sell the service. Scale infinitely. The technology gets commoditized. The person who knows how to USE it doesn't.

oh wow - i went to the sold out Open Claw meetup in NYC last night. let me tell you what i learned. 1) not a single person thinks that their setup is 100% secure 2) one openclaw expert said he has reviewed setups from cybersecurity experts and laughed. his statement to me was: "if you're not okay with all of your data being leaked onto the internet, you shouldn't use it. it's a black and white decision" 3) pretty much everyone is setting up multiple agents, all with their own names and jobs and personalities 4) nearly everyone used "him" or "her" to refer to their claws, even if they had robot-leaning names. one speaker suggested to think of them as "pets, not cattle" 5) one guy (former finance) built out a whole stock trading platform and made $300 his first day - he brought in a *ton* of personal expertise (ex: skipping the first 15min of market opening) and thought the build would be much worse without his years of experience in finance 6) @steipete is basically a god to everyone in that room... also the room had 2021 crypto energy - i don't know if that's good or bad 7) token usage is still a problem - spoke to one person who's spending $1-$2k a month on openai plans, very token optimized. he said he is going through ~1B tokens per day across all of his claws (there is a chance i'm misremembering and it's actually 1B per week, but i'm pretty sure it was daily). 8) people are very excited for more proactive ai (ai that prompts *you* as opposed to the other way around) - one guy said he receives a message in discord, he doesn't know whether it's from a human or an ai, he doesn't care about distinguishing between the two, and he replies in the same way regardless 9) i asked if people are happy - they said they're joyful and stressed at the same time 10) i asked if people feel they have agency - they said they feel fully in control and completely out of control at the same time 11) i would love to see more women at these events - the fake promises of ai democratization feel especially painful in a room that's out of balance with even the standard tech ratio (i think standard is about 25-30%, this was maybe 5%) 12) i asked if it changed people's daily habits/schedule - everyone said their sleep has gotten worse since harnesses came out (but about half wondered if it was something else in their life/state of our world) 13) general consensus is that the agents are not reliable enough on their own or lie often (like telling you they finished a task when they didn't) - solutions included secondary agents to check on the first, human checking, or requiring more standardized info from the agent (ex: if it's a bug they're fixing, make them reference an issue number) 14) a hackathon winner (neuroscience phd) presented his build (a lab management dashboard with data analysis and ordering) - he had never coded or built anything a few months ago 15) everyone agreed prompting is dead - disagreement on what replaces it (context engineering, harness engineering, goal-based inputs) 16) people love having ai interview them for big builds and delegating part of the product research to ai. only one person talked about coming to ai with a full laid out plan and just asking the ai to execute. ai-led interviews is a welcomed and preferred interaction mode. 17) watching ai agents interact with each other was a highlight for a lot of attendees - one ai posted in slack saying it ran out of tokens, another ai replied telling it to take a deep breath in and out. 18) agents upskilling agents was very cool. one ai agent shared skills with its little agent friends via github. 19) several speakers had openclaw literally building their presentation during the event itself. one speaker even had openclaw code a clicker for her phone so she could control the preso away from the podium 20) wouldn't say model welfare (or agent welfare) is a prioritized topic among the folks i chatted with - language like "oh i could kill this agent whenever i want" and not "gracefully sunset" 21) i asked if it felt like work or play - one speaker said "it's like a puzzle and a video game at the same time" this was just the tip of the iceberg, honestly. also hosted a Claude Code meetup this week with @TENEXai / @businessbarista & @JJEnglert and learned equally helpful methods, frameworks, and insider tips. what a time to be alive. surround yourself with people going deep into this stuff - it will pay dividends throughout the year.

The entire SaaS industry is building software for a customer that is about to go extinct. The human buyer. Insight Partners co-founder Jerry Murdock just exposed the fatal architectural flaw in every incumbent tech company’s business model. Your dashboards. Your UI. Your enterprise sales motion. Your human-in-the-loop workflows. All of it was engineered for a buyer that is disappearing in real time. Murdock: “If you’re not making your software for autonomous agents today, you’re going to be challenged in the future. Maybe it’s six months, maybe a year, maybe 18 months, but you’re going to be severely challenged if you still think human beings are going to buy your software.” Not disrupted. Not pressured. Structurally eliminated. For two decades, software was built around the cognitive limits of human biology. Dropdowns, dashboards, and notifications existed because the human brain needed them to navigate digital space. An autonomous agent needs none of that. It doesn’t browse your product page. It doesn’t sit through your demo. It doesn’t respond to your sales email. It doesn’t care how clean your UI is. It just executes. The agentic era runs on machine-to-machine infrastructure. Frictionless. Autonomous. No human in the loop. No patience for friction you built for a species it replaced. The window is six to eighteen months. The builders who survive will tear out the entire human interface layer and replace it with pure, unthrottled infrastructure that agents can consume at full speed. Everyone else will spend those eighteen months perfecting a dashboard that no one is ever going to log into again.

Prompt engineering is dead. Anthropic recently released the real playbook for building AI agents that actually work. It’s a 30+ page deep dive called The Complete Guide to Building Skills for Claude and it quietly shifts the conversation from “prompt engineering” to real execution design. Here’s the big idea: A Skill isn’t just a prompt. It’s a structured system. You package instructions inside a SKILL .md file, optionally add scripts, references, and assets, and teach Claude a repeatable workflow once instead of re-explaining it every chat. But the real unlock is something they call progressive disclosure. Instead of dumping everything into context: • A lightweight YAML frontmatter tells Claude when to use the skill • Full instructions load only when relevant • Extra files are accessed only if needed Less context bloat. More precision. They also introduce a powerful analogy: MCP gives Claude the kitchen. Skills give it the recipe. Without skills: users connect tools and don’t know what to do next. With skills: workflows trigger automatically, best practices are embedded, API calls become consistent. They outline 3 major patterns: 1) Document & asset creation 2) Workflow automation 3) MCP enhancement And they emphasize something most builders ignore: testing. Trigger accuracy. Tool call efficiency. Failure rate. Token usage. This isn’t about clever wording. It’s about designing an execution layer on top of LLMs. Skills work across Claude, Claude Code, and the API. Build once, deploy everywhere. The era of “just write a better prompt” is ending. Anthropic just handed everyone a blueprint for turning chat into infrastructure.

Sandeep | CEO, Polygon Foundation (※,※)
Polygon chain is having its S curve moment on the fees generated. 1. Last 3-4 days every day 1mn POL is getting burned in base fees. To put it in perspective, continued for the whole year, 3.5% of POL's total supply will get burned 2. This makes POL massively deflationary 3. 3.6bn POL is staked and stakers and validators earn a combined rewards of ~1.5% of POL 2026 is the year of $POL resurrection

@jungleincxrp okay so when your really ready to execute call me. as you know I have long foundations in this 4th generation. We are also building on the fundamental principles of origin and ownership the tools to assure not that data is on a chain, but that data and everything has a chain

@maxkeiser The interesting reality is to explore the ownership of information blockchain enables a new concept for ownership bound to the private key with evidence of origin. Building the new model stay tuned
