Why do wallets need a token? This last week Metamask teased finally releasing a token, Rabby followed ( $RABBY), Rainbow joined suggesting $RNBW, and the debate quickly emerged: why would a wallet need a token at all? At the most basic level, a wallet token is a way to share success with the community that sustains it. Wallets have straightforward revenue models: swap fees and convenience fees. Introduce a token, and that revenue can flow back to users through mechanisms such as buybacks, followed by redistributions or burns. The more the wallet is used, the more value accrues to its believers. But the purpose extends beyond revenue. If Web3 is about aligning incentives and distributing power, then governance should be central. Just as $AAVE and $UNI give communities a voice in steering the two biggest protocols, wallet tokens can allow users to decide the direction of the very gateways they rely on daily. There is also the competitive reality. In a crowded market, tokens function as onboarding tools. Incentives and airdrops can capture initial attention, and if the product delivers on UX, they convert newcomers into long-term loyalists. Of course, launching a token is a heavy responsibility. It forces teams to manage new layers of complexity, from treasury design to regulatory navigation. Yet that very responsibility benefits end users: it provides another lens through which to evaluate a project’s maturity, transparency, and long-term commitment. While larger wallets still hesitate, @ambire embraced the model from day one. The $WALLET token is an active governance token with roughly a hundred community voters participating in governance votes every month. It is value sharing, with 65 million $WALLET tokens (6.5% of supply) already bought back from fees and treasury. It is an acquisition engine, distributed to users through Ambire Rewards. What others only hint at, Ambire has executed in full view. Wallet tokens, done right, are not value extraction mechanisms, but the natural evolution of Web3 wallets, aligning incentives, decentralizing control, and turning products into ecosystems.

AI slop language is becoming a real problem. Linguistically, most people are now adapting to recognize it and it becomes really irritating. Especially the use of: - antithesis/contrastive parallelism - amplification through contrast - Transition Words/Phrases - List-like Structures

Last fall I took MDMA with my entire family. My dad cried for the first time in my life and stopped drinking. My mom apologized for things from high school. My sister and I finally understood each other. We've been different ever since. One night undid 28 years of walls.

This the @VanityFair editorial everyone’s talking about?

@Thealphacruze @Rabby_io @Uniswap @ambire Thoughts about Ambire’s new UI?

I have tried, many many many wallets, and funny enough, I gave not bothered with the ones listed here for the most part (to me they all just look like metamask 🤮) I have used and came back @Rabby_io @Uniswap wallet and recently been using @ambire a lot I tend to switch between the 3 for different wallets or actions

What's your favorite extension wallet design?

Reasons to love the internet

Look, I might be biased, but...

POV: The last time you are seeing this UI.

New @ambire UI is melting faces

TLDR: Ambire is shipping a new extension design in the next few hours: slimmer layout, updated UX, and groundwork for the Ambire mobile app. Extension design matches the upcoming mobile design (yes, Ambire is working on mobile 🔥 ). Ask the team for early mobile testing if you're attending @EthCC The new design has dark/white mode, toggle to see what works better for your eyes. Ambire experience and vibes are still there, it's just packaged into a more modern liquid glass effect. @vanzooeth wrote a cool piece about the redesign process blog.ambire.com/extension-gets… Check the post below for sneak peeks.

@davidsenra @pmarca Marcus Aurelius. Wow, this post is such a bullsh*t

Great men of history had little to no introspection. The personality that builds empires is not the same personality that sits around quietly questioning itself. @pmarca and I discuss what we both noticed but no one talks about: David: You don't have any levels of introspection? Marc: Yes, zero. As little as possible. David: Why? Marc: Move forward. Go! I found people who dwell in the past get stuck in the past. It's a real problem and it's a problem at work and it's a problem at home. David: So I've read 400 biographies of history’s greatest entrepreneurs and someone asked me what the most surprising thing I’ve learned from this was [and I answered] they have little or zero introspection. Sam Walton didn't wake up thinking about his internal self. He just woke up and was like: I like building Walmart. I'm going to keep building Walmart. I'm going to make more Walmarts. And he just kept doing it over and over again. Marc: If you go back 400 years ago it never would've occurred to anybody to be introspective. All of the modern conceptions around introspection and therapy, and all the things that kind of result from that are, a kind of a manufacture of the 1910s, 1920s. Great men of history didn't sit around doing this stuff. The individual runs and does all these things and builds things and builds empires and builds companies and builds technology. And then this kind of this kind of guilt based whammy kind of showed up from Europe. A lot of it from Vienna in 1910, 1920s, Freud and all that entire movement. And kind of turned all that inward and basically said, okay, now we need to basically second guess the individual. We need to criticize the individual. The individual needs to self criticize. The individual needs to feel guilt, needs to look backwards, needs to dwell in the past. It never resonated with me.

@dave_ejitade @ambire 💀

@ambire Yes, it could be better

Everything is fine and you are doing just great

See ya in Cannes ☀️ Swing by the Ambire booth at @EthCC @WalletCon_, chat self-custody, and grab some awesome swag (hint 🐊) New side quest: discover the city on a walking tour with fellow crypto people. Touching grass included.

@Ivshti @openclaw it’s codex

@vanzooeth @openclaw wym you're waiting for the AI just running a single query on grok/gpt/etc. will yield faster results for most things

When AGI finally arrives, my @openclaw will remember this and make sure I suffer the most 💀
