@fejes713 awesome work!

making storyboarding fun again... waitlist is live

@cultured @tether huge! congrats @cultured @czoob3

We are excited to announce that @tether, the largest stablecoin company in the world, is making a strategic investment of $200M into Whop, valuing us at $1.6B. Our partnership with Tether marks a major step in building the world's largest internet market. Tether is committed to enabling everyone in the world to participate in the new internet economy. The way humans work and create value is changing fast. The world needs both an open internet market giving people a platform to conduct business, as well as a transparent payments network. Tether and Whop together will work to bring a sustainable income to billions of people throughout the world. There is enormous opportunity when you combine Tether’s global scale and wallet technology with Whop’s community of next generation entrepreneurs. My co-founders and I met as teenagers on the internet selling software. We first launched Whop as a way for us to sell our own software to people in Facebook and Discord forums. Prior to Whop, the place we found customers was different from the place we collected payments, different from the place we talked to customers, and there wasn’t a central place to “do business” on the internet. In partnership with Tether, we will be scaling infrastructure in real-time for new business models as they emerge across the globe. The job is just getting started. 🚀

Prediction: video editing is going to be eaten by AI in the next 12 months like software engineering was in the last 12.

@SaurinPatelX wanna build?

@timwangyc that sounds more like an engineer that does design 😂

our designer is ridiculous: 1.designs the interface 2.codes the frontend 3.coordinates engineers 4.plans the roadmap with me 5.talks to customers 6.builds our agent 7.currently running evals all at a world-class level

lock-in in NYC party in SF

i fear we ship too slow i fear we ship too fast but not well i fear we don’t scope enough i fear we over plan without these fears, i don’t think an eng team can rapidly improve their efficiency if an eng team can’t rapidly improve, they won’t make it even after PMF. bc fierce competition demands world class eng efficiency
