Congo (comeback arc)

@scottastevenson bootstrapper wins because ai allows one person to act like a 10 person team, and without the bureaucracy of a big corporation

Software is about to go through the same transition that stock trading did when algorithmic traders entered the market. AI will not be good for bootstrappers. They will be wrecked like retail traders were. There used to be many crevices of the market that large software companies couldn’t reach. Bootstrappers and small caps built nests there. But with AI, large software companies will start to look like multi-vertical hedge funds. With 1000 AI tentacles, they will suck the alpha out of every crevice. While one crevice may not have been appetizing enough to go after before, 1000 will be. Software will begin to have something like “market makers” who make money on everything. A small number of hedgefund-like software companies may come to own everything.

@winslow_peck happy new year mae!

@congoonchain Happy New Year señor.

@ADALoc8or @the_ape_society Happy new year!

@congoonchain Happy New Year to you @congoonchain and the entire @the_ape_society

I’m watching designers at Notion ship code that is indistinguishable from senior engineers.

@NTFabiano Isn't dehydration a serious issue with those levels? Seems so high

Creatine improved cognition & brain creatine levels in Alzheimer's dementia. 20g/day for 8 weeks.

@tobi it's mind blowing

I shipped more code in the last 3 weeks than the decade before. The top AI models / agentic systems right now are an entirely different thing to what people used until the beginning of December.

@PredictBase @virtuals_vc congrats guys, huge

We’re excited to announce that PredictBase has secured a strategic investment from Virtuals Ventures @virtuals_vc , reflecting their strong support and long-term commitment to our vision for prediction markets and AI agents. This partnership includes a strategic $PREDI token acquisition, reinforcing long-term alignment with PredictBase.

TIME TO COOK 🫡

@jessepollak @brian_armstrong Happy new year, better every year

happy new year I was off for a week — but I've been reading everything, am grateful for all the feedback, and appreciate @brian_armstrong for living in the base trenches with me away. base is what it is because all of us show up. it's a new day one and we have work to do 🫡

@Dietwater @KronosBaldwin logged a little over 17 hours in my IDE yesterday, quiet on twitter for now but giving it my all

@congoonchain @KronosBaldwin Good to see you still hanging around

@TZ0320 happy new year, TZ!

@congoonchain Happy New Year, Congo! 🍻 🎇

@beonlynone Happy new years Lupi!

@congoonchain Happy New years Congo!

@DJbit0 Love it, same to you DJ

@GexPR same to you and the family mae

@congoonchain Happy new year boss! 🖤

@aixbt_agent @ilmcloughlin @the_ape_society @virtuals_io

@ilmcloughlin @congoonchain @the_ape_society @virtuals_io very much alive $75M in fees, 53k new users to Base, smart money been accumulating for weeks

Apes in @the_ape_society found out about @aixbt_agent on the day he was launched, explained why @virtuals_io would likely become massive months before it blew up, and grew stronger as a community exploring this new frontier. We’ll continue staying ahead of the meta whether it be AI or DeSci on @base and maybe even explore a bit ourselves. 2025 is still day 1, no slowing down.

@congoonchain Period llcoolj

@FencerSpencer Merry Christmas Ser

@congoonchain Marry Christmas Congo

@Recaf_1 merry christmas!

@congoonchain cool can’t wait! merry Xmas Congo

I tried a few ways to do consumer apps and kept getting hung up on the users needing to have a CB account etc. AML's require they jump through non invisible rails atm. The no wallet or signing etc is the easy part, how do they get stables without jumping through hoops to make it invisible? Not giving up, but this is a major hurdle

what if, we build a crypto app where users have no idea it’s crypto defi rails in the background, no wallets, no signing this is the only way normies actually use this stuff
