over the past few months i’ve been intentionally taking things slow, recharging, and being thoughtful about what i wanted to work on next. i’ve always believed that great ui/ux is one of the most powerful ways to make complex systems accessible, and it’s something i’ve felt the crypto space has been missing for a long time. that’s why i’m excited to share that i’ve recently moved to the sf bay area and joined @RobinhoodApp to help build robinhood chain. robinhood has long set the gold standard for user experience in financial products, and seeing the team double down on bringing that same level of accessibility and design to crypto, while working toward making financial systems more open, efficient, and accessible for everyone, felt like the perfect opportunity for where my skills and interests align. would love to connect if you’re in the bay area!

@agaperste @Stablecoin @UniswapFND congrats Jackie!

Some personal news 🌱 I joined Bridge @Stablecoin! I'll be focusing on data for crypto and stablecoin issuance. I’m deeply grateful to the @UniswapFND for the opportunity over the past year. Getting to help shape data foundations around Uniswap v4, hooks, and the broader ecosystem, and to work with such a thoughtful and generous group of people, has been incredibly meaningful. I learned a lot and genuinely loved building together. Now I’m excited to bring my onchain data experience into a new frontier, learning how to connect onchain systems with fintech and offchain data. There’s something special about working on infrastructure that’s mostly invisible when it’s done right, yet quietly transforms how the world works. Week two at Bridge and I’m already seei the beautifully, speedily executed growth, all amidst fun chaos. Feeling very lucky to be building alongside this team, and excited to keep learning, shipping, and cooking. 🧪✨ Onward. 🚀

ok now what

@akshaybd congrats! legendary run and enjoy the empty calendar!

life update: after ~5 years working on solana, i’m grateful to pass the torch and embrace an empty calendar. from using the sollet wallet to seeing internet capital markets come to life - it’s been a wild ride. i’m always amazed by the momentum our work generates thanks to a community that shows up to build with us, day after day. this is why i’ve believed that solana doesn’t need a traditional cmo - it already has hundreds. the ecosystem is our best marketing. our job is rather simple: help you crush distribution. together, we've shipped great work (some bad stuff too - sorry!), broken a few rules in the marketing textbook and the result is a brand that many would kill for - built by all of us. this is what makes solana special - everyone has write access to the network, brand, and culture. i remain excited about solana’s future, especially in a post-AI world where capital is the ultimate leverage. everyone will have to become an investor. the ability to buy any asset, from anywhere, on a phone is inevitable. solana is uniquely positioned to power this transition. super grateful to my all-star team (vibhu, ellie, niran, megan, amy, james, erica, simon, steff); friends in the ecosystem, labs, anza, foundation, superteam (esp. OGs - tanmay, dev, kash, neil and tamar); to raj and lily for trusting me with this responsibility, and to dan, yelena, and amanda for being incredible exec partners. @vibhu will step in to lead the team, and i couldn’t be more pumped. he’s an exceptional founder and a genius marketer - really glad I was able to scam him into joining us instead of starting another company. i once read that it’s a privilege to be tired of the work you once dreamed of having. i feel that deeply today. i leave with a full heart and lifelong friendships across more than 100 countries. this has been an all-consuming season of my life. thank you all!

being a decent human already sets you apart

@AlasdGem says the AI

Write one em dash and everyone accuses you of using AI Fuck this—I’m done 🙅

Underrated business advice: People want to do business with people they like. So, being likable and nice to be around is actually a durable competitive advantage.

@elonmusk are you ok @anihamde?
