🪙 Scrooge, Tekkaus & Axolink Walk Into a Vault… Scrooge says: “I’m not selling my ITL.” Tekkaus says: “Good. Don’t sell it.” Axolink says: “Just store it in the ITL Collateral Vault instead.” 😎 Ever needed USDT for bills, business, or a time-sensitive opportunity... but didn’t want to part ways with your ITL? That’s exactly where ITL Collateral Vault comes in. 🔐 What is ITL Collateral Vault? A decentralised collateral vault that lets ITL holders: ✅ Lock ITL as collateral ✅ Borrow USDT temporarily ✅ Keep ownership mindset intact ✅ Repay later and reclaim their ITL So instead of: ❌ Selling ITL and lose upside potential You get: ✅ Liquidity now, while staying exposed to ITL Why ITL Collateral Vault is So Useful? Scrooge keeps his treasure. 💰 Tekkaus gets to say, “See? No need to sell.” 👍 Axolink gets to nod like a genius. 📈 😁 But most importantly, ITL Vault gives holders a practical way to access funds without exiting their belief in ITL. How it works? 1. Deposit ITL into the vault 2. Borrow USDT based on your collateral 3. Repay the loan, plus interest and fees 4. Unlock your ITL when you’re done 📉 Lower borrow ratio = more safety ⚠️ Always borrow responsibly Why this matters? ITL Vault adds real utility to the ecosystem: 💡 More use cases for ITL 💸 Liquidity without selling 🛡️ Better capital flexibility 🌍 More on-chain activity and value Final thought Scrooge may be stubborn, but even he’d love a system where he can keep his ITL and still get USDT. 😉 ITL Vault: hold smart, borrow wisely, and keep your ITL working for you.

Noah Brier (Noah Brier) uses Claude Code as his second brain—it’s the coolest notetaking setup I’ve ever seen. He has Claude running on a server in his basement hooked up to a VPN. It stores, reads, and writes to thousands of notes in his Obsidian (Obsidian) vault. He does it all from his phone. I had him on the show to tell us exactly how he’s pulling this off. We get into: - The nuts and bolts of the Claude Code-Obsidian setup: Noah set up Claude Code on top of his Obsidian root directory, and he walked me through how he uses it to prep for an upcoming speech—creating a project folder, pulling in relevant research from his notes, saving transcripts from chats with other LLMs, and generating daily progress updates. - The “thinking partner” that lives inside Noah’s second brain: Noah points out that in the hype around AI’s ability to write, the fact that it can read is overlooked. That’s why he has an agent inside Claude Code with strict guardrails to stay in “thinking mode.” It logs his questions, tracks insights, and catches him up on research if he returns to a project after a few days away. - How Noah does deep work on his phone: Noah rigged a home server in his basement, put his Obsidian vault in it—and then runs Claude Code on top. Noah says that being able to think, write, research, and ship code from his phone has fundamentally changed the way he works. This episode of Every 📧’s AI & I is a must-watch for anyone curious about who wants to learn how to use Claude Code to build a true second brain. Watch below!
