Yet another proof that the US is completely agreement-incapable. It's pretty crazy when you think about it: they made the EU sign a deal that was egregiously one-sided in their favor - basically a colonial treaty - which the EU justified signing by saying it prevented higher tariffs on EU cars. And the US just violated the latter 🤦‍♂️ I'm not holding my breath but hopefully this time - unlike the previous times - Europeans learn this lesson: accommodating the US is literally worse than useless.

Why do outdated ownership records and the equity transfer process create a market structure problem, not just an administrative one? In this clip, @chad_oda, our Head of Institutional Growth, interviews our CTO, @thibauld, on one of the core bottlenecks in private markets. Companies stay private longer. More value is created before IPO, and more transactions happen in private markets. But the infrastructure to move ownership is still fragmented, manual, and expensive. That is why this is bigger than paperwork. If equity cannot move cleanly, the market itself stays inefficient. It is also why @Fairmint has spent so much time focused on the cap table and the rails underneath it.

Improving how government are run is one of the big challenge of this century... and I would not have thought that the UAE would take the lead on that front, but it clearly seems they did! AI has the potential to make our governments an order of magnitude more efficient, while at the same time being an order of magnitude cheaper to run. This is the way!
HH Sheikh Mohammed@HHShkMohd

Under the directives of the President of the UAE, we launch a new government model. Within two years, 50% of government sectors, services, and operations will run on Agentic AI, making the UAE the first government globally to operate at this scale through autonomous systems. AI is no longer a tool. It analyses, decides, executes, and improves in real time. It will become our executive partner to enhance services, accelerate decisions, and raise efficiency. This transformation has a clear timeline. Two years. Performance across government will be measured by speed of adoption, quality of implementation, and mastery of AI in redesigning government work. We are investing in our people. Every federal employee will be trained to master AI, building one of the world’s strongest capabilities in AI-driven government. Implementation will be overseen by Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed, with a dedicated taskforce chaired by Mohammad Al Gergawi driving execution. The world is changing. Technology is accelerating. Our principle remains constant. People come first. Our goal is a government that is faster, more responsive, and more impactful.

I like blockchain tech quite a bit because it extends open source to open source+state, a genuine/exciting innovation in computing paradigms. I'm just sad and struggle to get over it coming packaged with so much braindead bs (get rich quick pumps/dumps/scams/spams/memes etc.). Ew

Instead of calling for donations: 1) Build a deposit Vault call it "Defi United Eth" 2) Wire Aave wETH revenue to vault capped at 5% APR, 3) Make vault deposit token tradable call it "AaveETH" 4) slowly repay interest + principal Let people deposit, max vault capacity is the total worst case scenario hole. I'm pretty sure they would have collected more than needed last saturday Aave has plenty of revenue, Aave DAO and Labs are sitting on 9 figures of treasury each and would have figured it out eventually, Panic avoided, back to work. Would have deposited most of my ETH in it, why not?

Wow! Incredible move! Have you thought about doing something akin to what Bitfinex did back in the days, raising ~$1B in a few days with their $LEO token after having ~$1B funds frozen and facing a huge liquidity crisis? Sort of a United DeFi DAO raising funds through a $UNITED token backed by a commitment from the parties involved to buy and burn the token over time? This could bootstrap the first "reinsurance DAO", governed by the main industry players and whose only goal would be to intervene in the occurrence of large catastrophic events like the one that just happened.

Aave is my life's work and we're working nonstop to find the best possible outcome for users. I’m personally contributing 5000 ETH to DeFi United as we continue working together with partners on formalizing more commitments. I’m working to see this resolved and market conditions normalized as soon as possible. DeFi United.

Fairmint
Fairmint@fairmint·
In this clip, Arianna Pretto-Sakmann, Fairmint’s General Counsel, explains a principle that has shaped Fairmint from day one: bringing equity onchain within the existing securities framework. Fairmint was built around the idea that better market infrastructure should work with the rules that govern capital markets, not around them. That principle continues to shape the company today. As an SEC-registered transfer agent, Fairmint is building infrastructure to issue, manage, and transfer equity onchain. Private markets need better rails: better recordkeeping, better auditability, and better transfer infrastructure.

Je regarde beaucoup les médias internationaux. Dans un monde peuplé par des Trump, Putin, Xi Jinping, Netanyahu et autres Supreme Leaders, et même chez nous en Europe avec nos Johnson, Orbán, PiS et autres populistes maison, la France de Macron est tout sauf "sortie de l'Histoire" et "marginalisée" On peut critiquer Macron pour sa politique nationale. Sur la scène internationale la France s'en sort plutôt très bien par les temps qui courent, du moins dans tout ce que je lis et vois ailleurs @NicolasBaverez

Le double mandat d’Emmanuel Macron aura acté la marginalisation de notre pays sur la scène internationale. ➡️ l.lepoint.fr/p1O Par @NicolasBaverez

Today is my last day at Consensys, where I've been building MetaMask for over ten years. I'm burned out and need to spend time with my family. Wishing the team the best — they have an amazing road ahead of them.

"so you staked your ETH on the Ethereum blockchain to earn yield?" "yes, Dave" "except you didn't want your capital to be locked up so you actually staked it with a liquid staking protocol called Lido?" "that's correct, Dave" "and Lido gave you a liquid staking receipt token called stETH in return?" "yes, Dave" "and then you didn't think that was enough, so you juiced the yield even further by depositing your stETH receipt tokens into a restaking protocol called Eigenlayer?" "you are correct, Dave" "and now you didn't want to lock up your capital, so you actually restaked with a liquid restaking protocol called KelpDAO who provided you with a liquid restaking receipt token called rsETH?" "you got it, Dave" "and then that was surely not enough juice, so you then deposited your rsETH tokens into a lending protocol called AAVE so that you could open a leveraged looping position that borrows ETH against the rsETH collateral and restakes the ETH into rsETH which is then deposited as collateral, except it turns out rsETH used a cross-chain bridge called LayerZero whose security is held together by a 1/1 toothpick, which was obviously hacked by north koreans causing rsETH to become undercollateralized and now these looping positions are stuck and unprofitable, and everyone is pointing fingers at each other, and also DeFi is a very serious industry" "you are 100% correct, dave" jfc.

Oh yes please, my body is ready! I have been tweeting about this a few times already: x.com/thibauld/statu… x.com/thibauld/statu… Slackbot should be my single agent orchestrator on Slack. I should be constantly talking to Slackbot... but I am not and it feels like an immense waste of an opportunity. It's time to make Slackbot great!
thibauld@thibauld

My periodic reminder to @SlackHQ and @salesforce that Slackbot not being able to interact with content "on Slack" is the most incomprehensible wasted opportunity in AI as far as I am concerned. When I saw the Superbowl Ad, I was like "Finally! They did it!!" but.... no 🤷 What the heck guys? What are you waiting for?? It's the lowest, most ripe, hanging fruit that has ever hang. Just do it!

I want to share some difficult news. I was recently diagnosed with a rare form of cancer and I want you to hear it directly from me. Treatment is starting immediately and will include multiple strategies over the course of about a year. While I will be stepping back from some of my usual activities, I will continue to support SV Angel founders, who I love with a passion. SV Angel remains unchanged. Topher has made all of our investment decisions for the better part of the last decade, and Ronny joined as Managing Partner in 2024. They bring experience from nearly every major technology cycle in Silicon Valley and are now focused on partnering with founders building the future of AI. SV Angel has a deep, experienced team that remains fully focused on supporting exceptional founders. With a more focused and balanced schedule, I can prioritize treatments while helping SV Angel founders at inflection points like we always do! I’ve chosen not to share the specific type of cancer since I don't want speculation about my prognosis. I appreciate your understanding and respect for this. I am optimistic about my prognosis. I am fortunate to have the best/amazing team of UCSF doctors in San Francisco, and as you know, I never back down from a fight. Thank you for your support, it means a great deal to me.
