Sam Broner says that stablecoins are just the first step. "If stablecoins win, everybody succeeds. Once I'm paying every day, there's a lot of services that want to move onchain due to that gravity." "Identity is the most obvious. Then social networks begin to form on top of that.... show more

The first watch of this video will fill you with so much indignation that you begin to question a lot of things, and then you are told that the priest is handing out little cookies to symbolise the Eucharist. An action that prepares the children for the first Eucharist. Then you would be like, "I knew something was off." Lol

Circle was founded on a simple idea: money should move more like information on the internet. As Jeremy Allaire - jerallaire.arc puts it, the goal was to build “a protocol for dollars on the internet,” one that allows value to move over open networks at the speed of the internet. For banks, that vision is becoming a strategic question: → Stablecoins are becoming infrastructure → AI is accelerating the shift → Payments, FX, and settlement are moving toward always-on systems

💬 how do you manifest 🌙 there's a lot of ways to manifest I would just say just think as you are, as in think as you are what you want to manifest.

If you miss the context… The true greater context… That they are controlling us with a psychological weapon, then you begin to realize it’s not just about elections. It’s world domination and I’m not joking. Our election is just a drop in the bucket. But DOGE was basically the opportunity to steal a lot of data from us.

Martin Masser from ChangeNOW says we overlook how many people get paid in USDT and Bitcoin because their currency won't hold "We have a lot of payments areas. We have a lot of travel companies, luxury goods items. People may want to accept crypto. If you have a website, maybe you want to be accepting payments in crypto." "We're very lucky where we are in the Western world, where we can use our Apple Pay. But there's many areas of the world where the currency is going up and down. What you get paid today is very different to what it's worth next week." "A lot of them do take stablecoins, and the amount of people I know that get USDT and Bitcoin as their main payments. This is something we really overlook. You go to many areas of the world, this is what a lot of them are doing." "How are they able to spend that? So there is now payments. Websites or companies can use that as an integration, so they can accept crypto payments, and then we look after all the ends of whatever they need, if they need it looked after or cashed out." "I think we really do overlook how many people actually utilise and hold crypto on a day-to-day basis. This isn't just price speculation." "This is really, look, I know I'm not going to be able to have the same amount of money in my pocket if I get paid in a local currency. And even sending it to partners and loved ones, this happens a lot."

Rogin: It looks very likely that we're about to restart bombing of Iran. And there are a lot of reports out there that this is about to happen. And what that means is that all of the problems, not just with the US economy, with the economy of every country in the world, are about to get worse. And it means that the Iran war is going to go much longer than otherwise anticipated. And that is a disaster not just for Americans, but for all people. And then if you think about the effects on energy and then manufacturing, and then rates will continue to go up, and then inflation, it's a it's a calamity for the world economy with no strategy whatsoever.

"Every team wants to win a championship, but not every team wants to do the things required for a championship. And here's the thing: it's easy to be an average team. It doesn't require a lot. It's less adversity to be average in the world. The consequences of being average aren't easy. We end up wearing them. There's strain and struggle that comes with that too. The standard is just lower to be an average team. To be a championship team, to be champion, to be a championship team member here . . . I'm not gonna lie to you . . . I'm going to tell you the truth. It is harder. It is. The question is: Is it worth it? Some people say, "Oh it's not harder work." Yes it is. It's harder work. You can pursue comfort or you can pursue excellence. If we pursue comfort, we gotta give up some excellence. But if we pursue excellence, then we're just going to face more adversity. Everyone who's ever accomplished something excellence has had to overcome it. We are here today for a reason. Two reasons actually. Reason #1 is let's make sure that we identify and realize the opportunities that are in front of us. Reason #2 is let's make sure that we are preparing for the adversity that those opportunities require. And just understand: every single time you lever up your opportunities and you identify, "Oh there's something more I can do, more I can achieve. I can get better. I can earn more. I can do this." It's going to be matched with the adversity that comes with it. I want to make sure we are prepared for both of those, so that we're not chasing big opportunities and then getting mad when things start getting harder along the way. Is that fair? Does that make sense?"

Why BlackRock CEO Larry Fink calls Ethereum "The Toll Road to Tokenization" "What he meant by that is assets will be tokenized, people will transact, and then each of those transactions will pay a fee to the Ethereum network. Part of that fee will be burned and decrease the supply of ETH. The other part will be paid to stakers. So it's kind of like a toll road for anyone who wants to transact with tokenized assets." "The first example of product/market fit with tokenization was stablecoins. There are a lot of reasons why a tokenized dollar is better than one on fiat rails. But the big things are accessibility -- it gives people around the world who don't have access to the US financial system access to dollars -- and reducing the friction of settling those transactions. If you've had to send a wire or ACH transfer, it takes days. Stablecoins settle instantly, so it's way more efficient. You've even heard Jamie Dimon come around to the advantages of stablecoins." "Stablecoins are really just tokenized dollars, and then that's going to happen with almost every asset class. Stocks will be next. People are talking a bout tokenizing art and real estate. The theme is 'the tokenization of everything.' And as all of these assets move on chain because more people can access them and the friction of transacting with them is reduced, trillions of dollars of assets will move on-chain... and Ethereum will be the global settlement layer for all of those transactions, and all of those transactions will generate a fee to ETH holders, which is why your ETH will compound."

Everything's coming onchain. Stablecoins, RWAs… the whole financial system is rebuilding itself on crypto rails. And the way you own that is stupidly simple. Just buy the L1s it all runs on. This is the universal basic equity layer for all of us. If the biggest parts of the economy get handed to AI and agents, and they transact on crypto rails, then owning the L1s means you own a piece of their success. We never got that with the internet. Retail never got handed a slice of the plumbing. This time it's just sitting there, listed. There's no excuse not to do this.

Reminder that the Machine Payments Protocol's killer feature is sessions. Use sessions instead of the charge intent to go faster and cheaper. Ideal for high throughput APIs. - 1 onchain transaction to open a session - infinite tiny granularity 0-fee payments bound only by the latency of your API call - whenever you're done, 1 onchain transaction to close a session You don't need to close out. You can open a session once, forever, and then keep topping that up to keep paying your service if you've spent all your balance. Docs:

"the gift is being able to sell that idea. a lot of investing media actually serves to dress up those ideas in a way that makes them feel differentiated" "you should just buy big companies when they're at their 200-week moving average. i love that idea because it's just so simple. but it's right." the most profitable strategies i've ever built are embarrassingly simple. three rules, maybe four. often complexity is usually a costume for trying to deal with uncertainty.

Q: What's the secret to building a great product that grows really fast? Paul Graham explains that the secret to growing really fast is to: "start with a small, intense fire." He uses Apple as an example. They started by selling just 500 Apple I computers. Today Apple is the largest company in the world. It's impossible to make something that a large number of people really want when you're just starting out. So you have to find people who want what you're building A LOT. And that's necessarily going to be a small number at first. But that's ok because that's how almost every giant company gets started. PG continues: "You have to know who those first users are and how you're going to get them. Then you're going to sit down and just have a party with those first few users and focus entirely on them and making them super super happy." Another example he draws upon is a startup in a Y Combinator batch making a new mobile email client. Their beta group had one user: Sam Altman. This startup's goal was to just make Sam happy. Sam uses email a lot on the go, knows all of the other email client options, and is super demanding. So they know that if they build a product that makes Sam happy, odds are it will make lots of other people happy too. "One of the things we tell startups in these extreme cases where they can make just one user happy is to act like a consultant. Act like Sam has hired you to make an email app just for him. All you have to do is make Sam happy--it can say 'Sam Altman' at the top of the screen. That's ok! Just so long as Sam would feel bummed if you stopped working on it. That's the test." Ultimately the secret to building a great product that grows really fast is to build something a small group of people love so much that they'd be really disappointed if you stopped working on it. There's lots of important steps to get right after this, but this is the foundation for growth. It's somewhat counterintuitive, but most of the world's largest companies (e.g. Apple, Facebook, etc.) started by building a product that made a small group of people really happy.

Stablecoins are quietly transforming how money moves — faster, cheaper, and more globally than ever before. In this episode, we take a deep look at why stablecoins have emerged as one of the most promising applications in crypto today — and how they could reshape global payments. is joined by Chris Dixon, founder and managing partner of a16z crypto, and Sam Broner, a deal partner at a16z crypto who focuses on stablecoins. Together, they unpack the technical and regulatory foundations of stablecoins, explore the cracks in the current payments system, and look ahead to what becomes possible once digital dollars go mainstream. We also dig into the current state of regulation — and why the future of money might end up looking a lot more like email or the web than a bank. The full episode can also be found here:

Semafor's Liz Hoffman says prediction markets will replace "huge portions" of investing: "If I'm an investor, and I think that Coca-Cola is going to beat earnings — right now my options are like, 'I can go buy a call on Coca-Cola, short Pepsi, and hope that there's not a weird weather thing at the bottling plant in Atlanta or whatever. There's a lot of weird risks there." "And if you can just hit 'Yes' on that contract, it seems to me that a lot of investing is going to move that way." "As a social force, I don't love it. The long tail of nonsense is sucking up attention and, frankly, capital that could be doing more useful things."
