Sadly, crypto has lost the plot. Most networks are ghost chains w/ misaligned actors. Worse, BTC is still a pet rock. Our intent: 🌽 Make it easy to put your Bitcoin to work 🌽🌽 *Actually* align users, apps & token holders 🌽🌽🌽 Have fun and stay corny

Bitcoin is gas. Corn is the 1st Ethereum L2 that uses Bitcoin as the gas token. 🟢 BTCN is our hybrid tokenized Bitcoin, backed 1:1 by native BTC, and not bound to a single centralized custodian or bridging solution...

...Instead, BTCN extend's its minting rights to multiple trusted custodians, smart contracts, and/or bridging protocols. This empowers hodlers & protects their choice of how to store their native BTC as we create the go-to app ecosystem to unlock the value your BTC represents.

What have we learned from DeFi? 🌽 Users want great apps 🌽 Apps want liquidity -- to make them sustainable & great for users 🌽 Liquidity providers want, above all, YIELD! If only we had a design that struck a balance btw the multi-dimensional wants of users, apps and LPs!

With these delicious facts in mind... Corn is "The Super Yield Network." Inspired by veTOKENOMICS, pioneered by @CurveFinance, each block, the network emits $CORN incentives, that are then directed to protocols chosen by $CORN stakers.

Thus, Corn is the OG "veCHAIN," Yield on Corn consists of 2 tokens: 🟢 $BTCN (1:1 tokenized BTC) -- generated via network txn fees 🌽 $CORN -- native network emission $CORN stakers decide where yield is directed.

As if it didn't pay enough to be a $CORN staker, voters will also enjoy a native bribe market, offering extra incentives to vote for certain apps. You have a choice! ▪️ Vote to give $CORN yield to your favorite app ▪️ Delegate your vote to the Farmers Market for added incentives

It's simple... 🌽 $CORN holders are incentivized to stake to earn yield and/or bribes. 🌽 Protocols are incentivized to acquire and stake $CORN, as they wish to drive liquidity to their apps. 🌽 Users enjoy apps flush with liquidity. The Ultimate Crop Circle 🟠

🚜 Corn will incubate a vibrant ecosystem of apps and communities, but this time BTC will be in the driver’s seat. 🚜 Gas tokens nearly always are the hub for liquidity on their chain and introduce many app integrations. We intend for this to again be the case on Corn.

Excited to announce Ditto's $9.2M seed round to build an agentic social network, starting with revolutionizing college dating Our $9.2M round was led by Peak XV Partners , with continued support from Gradient and participation from Scribble Ventures , Alumni Ventures , and Llama Ventures. When Eric Liu and I started Ditto after dropping out of Berkeley, we wanted to answer one simple question: how do we help people connect more easily? It was obvious to us that our kids won’t be endless swiping on Tinder or manually searching for people on LinkedIn We believe that there should be a more automatic and effortless way for people to find each other, and to be found Inspired by Joon Sung Park's agent simulation town paper in 2023, we decided to build something that brings the Black Mirror dating experience into real life We started with something super simple: there’s an AI in your iMessage. You tell it your dating preferences (like “6’2 hot nerd who brings flowers” or “rave abg with tattoos & an A+ in CS”) It analyzes your entire school, simulate the dates, finds the match, sets the location and time & send it to you every Wednesday 7pm. All you have to do is show up This thing quickly took over UCSD and went viral in sorority group chats, with sisters sharing how hot (or chopped) their dates were Before we knew it, our beta test turned into a platform with 42,000+ users across 5 UCs This year, we are bringing Ditto to every US college, and hosting 10 yacht blind date parties nationwide It's only up from here, and let's build something generational!
