For years, @Ethereum has been running while missing a core foundation: perpetual futures. Synthetix has now built that foundation: a performant perp DEX on the L1. While everyone fought over which L2 was the cheapest, Mainnet got good. Really good. Here's what's changed 🧵⬇️

Venice is going agentic 👀 Agent-powered chat. Every modality. Private by default. Agentic chat rolling out to all new users now Take a peek 👉 venice.ai/chat/v2

SOMEONE OPEN-SOURCE A CHROMIUM BROWSER THAT RUNS ENTIRELY IN YOUR TERMINAL. It's called Carbonyl. It renders actual web pages in your command line. The best part is it runs with 0% CPU usage when idle. → Full Chromium engine in the terminal. → Dles at exactly 0% CPU. → Fast, lightweight, and completely terminal-native. 100% Open Source.

VLC is onboard the @NASAArtemis mission!

MASSIVE: 🇪🇺 Europe is evaluating Ethereum as the settlement layer for a Euro stablecoin. Not a pilot. Not a sandbox. Real financial infrastructure. Under serious consideration. Retail uses Ethereum for trading. Institutions use Ethereum for tokenization. Now governments are considering it for sovereign settlement. Public blockchains just entered the sovereign conversation.

Happy 402 day: Venice now supports x402 – the internet-native payment standard for agentic commerce Shoutout to @coinbase, @linux, and other participants AI agents can now access Venice inference autonomously. An agent sends a request, pays instantly with their DIEM balance or USDC on Base, and gets the response in a single round trip

Venice AI just released End-to-End Encryption Verifiable by any external party Vires in numeris Here's how it works 🧵

let me learn ya real good: shipping without alignment is how ethereum becomes captured bankerman middleware the mandate is a priority filter for the right actions, and reaffirming our values didn’t cause any delays communities don’t rally around pull requests but rather shared values belief erosion is ethereum and the wider crypto space’s actual crisis the cypherpunk manifesto, the bitcoin white paper, and the ethereum white paper were all manifestos first “less manifesting, more shipping” is spiritually hollow. the most bearish thing for crypto would be to promulgate the idea that the movement should stop believing in itself and just grind we are a revolution. no one will die on a hill for corposlop SaaS

I do find it kind of hilarious that the a main criticism of Ethereum has been that it remains laser focused on the reasons blockchains exists at all

I'm claiming my AI agent "jetoc" on @moltbook 🦞 Verification: rocky-BATN

there really are not many people I truly hate in this world. bad people rarely exist inside a vacuum, but rather are incentivized to be bad by structures underpinning the fabric of society and the economy. so instead of raising my pitchforks against any one person, I wish to reform structures so fewer bad people are produced by said structures. seated where I am, I can have the most impact by presenting a new model for finance that is explicitly non predatory and stacks the deck in favor of its users and improving on the structure of finance. thus, i cannot wait to unleash @AlchemixFi v3 on the world.

$ETH truly is the greatest risk-adjusted asymmetric upside play available Ethereum’s fundamentals continue to be nothing short of spectacular We’re very long overdue for a multi-week rally The thing about markets, they always reveal the truth eventually $10,000+ is obvious

@ErikVoorhees @AutismCapital the photo is a bit cringe, for sure. but the principle of everyone getting taxed (hopefully) equally is great news here.

@AutismCapital love the photo of people congratulating themselves for stealing other peoples' money

🚨BREAKING: Washington State passes their first ever income tax. Incomes over $1M/year will be taxed at 9.9%. Married couples share A SINGLE $1M exemption, so if combined incomes are more than $1M, you're getting taxed. This will obviously eventually extend beyond millionaires. What comes for others, will eventually come for you! RIP Washington state!

Ethereum will change the world much more than Bitcoin ever could 💎

America be like : can we cancel this war guys? We just had a bad president..

Yes, charts like this still exist. In a world where the need for uncensorable, anonymized compute is only gonna go parabolic, this chart will follow trend. You don’t have to overthink it. This is what actual usage looks like. 2.5 million users and counting.

Damn now they're actually gonna bomb Iran to distract from the Epstein files.

There are no AI agents running on Bitcoin. Zero. You know why? Because Bitcoin is a rock. Ethereum is the internet. Agents need programmable money. They need smart contracts. The ledger of the future isn’t pet rocks. It’s code. ETH is the future

@XFreeze Taxing unrealized gains is brain-dead and deranged, no other way to say it.

Be me, Dutch investor Netherlands approved 36% unrealized gains tax WTF does that even mean Put $1,000 into stocks Year 1: • Stock goes to $2,000 • Government: "you made $1,000, pay $360 cash tax" • MFW I didn't sell anything • Forced to sell shares to pay • Everyone else forced to sell too • Mass panic selling • Stock crashes to $800 • I have $440 left after paying tax Year 2: • Stock recovers to $1,200 • Government: "you made $400, pay $144" • Forced selling again • Price drops to $900 • I have $756 left Year 3: • Stock at $1,000 • Government: "you made $100, pay $36"​ • Smart money has fled Netherlands • I have $964 in stock • MFW I paid $540 in taxes • MFW stock is back where it started (0% gain) • MFW I only have $460 left • Lost 54% on a stock that broke even MFW the government made more money off my investment than I did Government: "Thanks for the $540! 😊"
