Robinhood is giving away 3.5% interest while inflation is only 3%. This is literally free money fools.

Launching Open Issuance Stablecoins have arrived. Two years ago, we still faced a degree of skepticism over if and how financial services would adopt stablecoins, but today we’re seeing neobanks, remittance companies, creator platforms, marketplaces, treasury teams, and more all use stablecoins to grow their businesses. That being said, it’s abundantly clear that while stablecoins are on their way to becoming core global infrastructure, there are some meaningful gaps to fill. Currently businesses build with one of two major stablecoins, USDC or USDT. Circle and Tether have pioneered this space, and they’ve been (rightfully) rewarded for doing so. But an off-the-shelf solution will only take you so far. It’s like choosing a car for a big race—you’d want to assemble it carefully, selecting the right parts and customizing the design, rather than picking a factory sedan. For instance, if you’re using an off-the-shelf stablecoin to build a neobank - - You can’t fully access the rewards to build the best possible savings account, - Your reserve mix cannot be customized to support increased liquidity or higher earnings, and - You’d have to pay a 10bps redemption fee to withdraw your own money! The status quo just isn’t good enough. If we want to maximize the impact stablecoins can have globally, we need to allow businesses to select the right parts and customize the design. That’s why we built Open Issuance, a new platform that enables any business to create a stablecoin. With Open Issuance, you can: - Customize the smart contracts to ensure this stablecoin meets your unique needs - Issue on any desired blockchain(s) - Adjust reserves composition and management strategy - Fully participate in the reserve economics - Control mint and burn fees (so you never pay to withdraw your own funds) - And so much more But what about liquidity? For a stablecoin to work, you need to make it easy to access, use and move. Through Bridge’s APIs and our new permissionless interoperability network, you can instantly convert between any two dollar formats, including all existing stablecoins (USDC, USDT, etc.), supported fiat currencies, and Open Issuance assets. Seamlessly convert your stablecoin into USDT and then into Mexican Pesos; convert Euros into USDC and then into your stablecoin; and so on. And unlike building a car, this customization comes at little-to-no additional cost. You get better economics, day 1 liquidity, and interoperability with just a few lines of code. We’re excited to unlock a whole new set of capabilities that builders around the world can use to create improved money experiences. We’re launching today with partners including Native Markets (USDH), Phantom (CASH), Metamask (mUSD), and Dakota (DKUSD). Each is using Open Issuance to build world-class stablecoin products. The stablecoin market is early – come build with us and help shape the future. Get in touch at bridge[.]xyz

@ericjackson @ericjackson one example of weird BoD composition: John Rice ran divisions of GE the industrial conglomerate - GE failed in software. How is that experience relevant to hypergrowing an innovative tech platform for residential real estate?

When Tom Lee said positive things about $BTQQF on a webinar earlier in the year, it rocketed. I thought last night’s support for $OPEN might spark the same. Whatever—it is what it is. Sometimes the effect is delayed. Let the shorts and sellers play their games. The world will wake up to $82, $200, $500—and this board will be long gone by then.

Something very weird going on with the new ChatGPT5... Ive asked it in Regular, Thinking and Pro to complete tasks that it says it's going to do and it never completes them. It tells you exactly what it will do and then never delivers any outcome except just asks more anymore questions. This has gone on for days in an endless loop. Are others noticing similar issues? @sama @OpenAI

every financial platform will soon have its own stablecoin excited to launch Slash USD — giving millions of global businesses a way to save, spend, and manage their finances natively on the Slash platform learn more at bridge[dot]xyz
Victor Cardenas Codriansky@victorcardenas

We raised $60M for this moment: Introducing Slash Global USD (in partnership w/ @base). It's the first banking platform that lets you open a USD account without an LLC, EIN, or the rampant account closures they call "account safety". It took major legislative changes AND 3 years to pull this off. Here's what makes it so different: 1. Banking without an LLC. Before Slash: You needed a LLC, $1K in fees, a virtual address, and a U.S. tax ID. With Slash you get a real U.S. account & routing number in ~10 minutes with your foreign documents. 2. No more hefty fees. PayPal charges a 3-4% conversion fee. We let you receive USD and crypto (USDC) with NO fees. Not enough? We pay you up to 4.5% cash rewards just for holding your money with us. 3. Account freezes. The big guys love flagging success as “fraud”. We're built for fast moving founders. We'll never wrongfully freeze your funds. I'm putting my money where my mouth is: If we do, I'll wire $10K to a charity of your choice. ------------------------------ In 2021, I dropped out of the number 1 school in America as a Venezuelan immigrant to build Slash. I pivoted the business 2x before getting our first customer. Today: - 3,000 businesses use @slashapp - We bought the domain Slash . com for $1M - $4B is spent on our credit cards every year And we just raised $41M from the people who built fintech: @MenloVentures @NEA @ycombinator @goodwatercap -------------------------------- To celebrate this launch, we're giving away our internal AI finance Agent free. It watches your bank accounts 24/7. Flags double charges. Cancels forgotten subscriptions. It saved us $39,000 last month. You don’t need a Slash account. It works with any bank. Retweet + comment “Slash” and I’ll send you a free access link.

Flexport had the two biggest ocean freight booking weeks in company history in the two weeks since the tariffs on China were paused. 80% growth over the pre-tariff trend line. Not just China surging, Vietnam also setting records.

Just helped a client drop 64% of visceral fat from his body in 2 months. We accomplished this during the busiest time of his life. The secret is not motivation or willpower. It's systems.
