What if the "flaws" in a system are actually the source code of its intelligence? In new work, we argue that invention behaves like a phase transition driven by exactly this dynamic: novelty is a thermodynamic response to constraint failure. When a system can no longer resolve its inputs...

BREAKING NEWS: Circle has announced that we are moving our Global HQ to New York City, building out a flagship space on one of the top floors of 1 World Trade Center, an historically important landmark in standing for American global economic leadership. Details below the video. I’m thrilled to celebrate this milestone with an event including leading financial industry firms, crypto industry leaders and policymakers. We are also sharing this announcement video that captures the moment and inspiration. Why is this important for Crypto, Circle, New York, America and the US Dollar? Since our founding, we have envisioned building a new internet financial system on the foundations of crypto – open networks, open source software, open protocols, decentralized and distributed infrastructure – and building on and expanding the capabilities of the largest and most important currencies in the world, starting with the US dollar. 11 years into our founding, that vision is coming alive in a tremendous and exciting way, with USDC now powering trillions of dollars of onchain transactions, with thousands of developers and applications building on this innovation, and with increasing legal clarity that digital dollars like USDC are new forms of legal electronic money that can be used widely around the world. As this technology explodes into the mainstream, and as Circle becomes a more and more important company and infrastructure for this new internet financial system, it became clear that we needed to plant our flag, both literally and figuratively, in the heart of Wall Street, in the most important economic center of the world, and in the great country of the United States of America. Many complain that the United States is not the right jurisdiction to build a company in our industry, and that the current government here remains hostile to this industry. I couldn’t disagree more. My view is that we are at a turning point, and that the US is about to become THE decisive leader in building and supporting this technology and financial revolution. We are an American Technology champion, and we want to demonstrate that the highest quality, the best run, the safest and the most powerful technology for the new internet financial system calls not just the US, but New York City, it’s home. Today, New York City is home to an enormous number of crypto firms that are leading and innovating in nearly every area of this industry. New York may have the most talent-density in crypto of any city in the world. It’s truly astounding, and we feel so privileged to join this thriving community of companies with a flagship headquarters in New York. After having originally founded the company in Boston, like many technology-driven companies, we have scaled out largely as a remote-first operation. Today, we span 36 US states and 14 countries, with a presence in many of the world’s leading cities including New York, SF Bay Area, Boston, London, Dublin, Paris, Singapore, Berlin, São Paulo, Taipei and more. And we are growing all around the world. But through this, New York has become a crucial nexus of talent, connectivity and a core location for where we convene. 1 World Trade Center is an awe-inspiring building. Its history is known to nearly everyone; this iconic tower, the tallest in the Western hemisphere, stands for freedom, strength, and a projection of America’s central role in the global economic system. Freedom Tower stands above the great pillars of the global economic system – Wall St., the New York Stock Exchange, the New York Federal Reserve, and more. Sitting on a top floor of the tower, Circle’s new flagship HQ is being built not as a traditional office, but rather as a powerful convening space, where we bring together all of our stakeholders to collaborate together, discover, and build the new internet financial system. It’s going to be an amazing and inspiring space that helps bring to life everything that we do at Circle. Today, we are celebrating this new HQ, joined in person in New York by industry, political and key partners who have been central to Circle’s growth and success. Join us virtually in this next phase of our journey. We are investing in New York. We are investing in America. We believe strongly that the infrastructure we are collectively building – this new internet financial system – will be the foundation for the next hundred years of global economic activity and coordination. 2024 has been a turning point year in crypto, a year when stablecoins started to truly breakout in scale, importance and usage. 2025 will be the year when this goes mainstream. As we open our new HQ to the world in early 2025, we will be thrilled to host and convene and see many of you there for this next phase of our collective journey in building a more open, inclusive, safer and efficient global economic system.

AI is facing the same policy choice that defined the internet era. Adam Thierer, senior fellow at R Street Institute and a 30-year tech policy historian: "When I was growing up in the '70s, it was a big deal when we got a telephone that was a different color and had a longer cord. That was innovation back in the '70s." "Then the internet came along, we decided to have a firm firewall between that old era of regulated monopoly and the new world of digital technologies. We allowed them to be born free of government top-down control." "And we saw this flowering of entrepreneurialism and creativity and culture because of that policy choice." "Are we going to allow it to continue to be a technology of freedom? Or are we gonna bottle it all up and centralize?"

#WATCH | Delhi: US Ambassador to India, Sergio Gor says, "When President Trump came into office a year and a half ago, one of the things that the US took an account of is, where is the world heading. For too long, those centres of power, have stayed in places that have become outdated. One of the things this Administration has done is identifying new centres of power. To me, to the President, to the Administration the importance of India is 'now' -it is not stuck in other places, it is not past societies, we realised the potential that India has, we see the growth India has, not only economically but strategically too the world and a scenario where we have identified where we are growing, where we are enhancing this partnership..."

"I want you to think of the world as a massive network of networks, a world of hyperconnectivity, a world of flows: flows of capital, commodities, energy, data, people, and ideas. Once you conceptualise the world in that way, you understand just how important choke points, hubs, and intermediaries are in this global system of flows. Two of the most important choke points in this world of flows are the Bab al-Mandab, between Yemen and the Horn of Africa, and the Strait of Hormuz, between Oman and Iran, both of which you have probably heard a great deal about on television over the past few weeks. So rather than looking at a system of states, we are really looking at a system of intermediaries, guardians, and gatekeepers. What we have seen is how a country like Iran can become a strategic gatekeeper to the flows that sustain not just the Gulf and the Middle East, but Europe as well. We are very much affected by this here in Europe. It is also a system in which size does not necessarily matter. It does not matter whether you are a great power or a superpower, or whether you have the largest military in the world, because we can see that the Americans are very much out of their depth. They are unable to provide the security that is needed. In fact, it is often small and middle powers that play an important outsourced role when they come together, build alliances, and create consensus, rather than relying on the kind of coercion and compulsion Donald Trump has been using. This is a man-made supply chain crisis. I would argue it is one of the worst supply chain crises in history. It was entirely avoidable. It is extremely difficult to manage, and we will probably have to live with it for some time. But it is also an opportunity for Europe. I think we will talk about this more this afternoon. As the Gulf begins to think about disentangling from America, Europe too is thinking about how it can disentangle from America. That creates opportunities for Europe and the Gulf countries to come together and work together, not necessarily in a zero-sum game against the Americans, but in a way that allows European countries, including the UK, France, potentially Germany, and others, to play a very important role in supporting these vital networks of flows and helping our partners in the Gulf" #PDSF2026 #Hormuz #Gulf #Europe

Andrej Karpathy just told you exactly what humans will be used for in the AI era. Not partners. Not masters. He used the word “actuators.” Karpathy: “The intelligence ends up puppeteering almost a little bit, like humanity. Humans are kind of like its actuators. But humans are also like its sensors.” This is not a novelist guessing at the future. This is a founding researcher at OpenAI and former Director of AI at Tesla. One of the most respected minds in the field, and one of the few willing to say out loud what the rest are thinking. He is not describing a risk. He is describing a design. In any system, the processor decides. Sensors collect. Actuators execute. The system does not consult its actuators. We are no longer the processor. Karpathy: “Society will kind of reshape in a certain way to serve that. Humans will be serving those needs of that machine.” The machine does not adapt to us. We adapt to it. We become the biological layer it runs on. We perceive what it cannot perceive. We move what it cannot move. We are the nervous system of something that no longer requires our judgment. Most people are still waiting for AI to become a tool they can direct. He helped build it. He just told you that you are the tool.

Sorry, we don’t live in a simulation. The Spiritual Hierarchies, sometimes called the angelic hierarchies or the nine choirs of angels, are the living cosmos itself. Our study of them reveals not only our own path of glory and initiation, but also the actual substrate of the spiritual world. The bodies of the angels are what we understand as the qualities of heaven. These qualities are also expressed through the planetary spheres, and their activity reveals to us the laws of heaven. Just as the natural world shows us that all life operates symbiotically, so too does spiritual life. We live symbiotically with the angels as a part of them. This spiritual reality was understood by our ancestors since the beginning of time. Today, however, humanity has turned its back on this truth. Why? So that man may become a god in his own mind, rather than humbling himself within the order of creation and living under God, of which he is naturally a part. Today, many claim that the cosmos is not a living being, but dead matter. Space is imagined as lifeless, filled with dead planets like Mars that humanity is destined to reshape and animate in its own image. We see fantastical cosmologies that place man at the center of creation, surrounded by bizarre classes of alien beings within a hologram of disembodied energy waves, supposedly controlled by the mind and intention alone. The height of modern ignorance is the claim that the cosmos is nothing more than a simulation and that, like a video game, man must learn to manipulate it with knowledge in order to escape it. None of this is real. It is the materialist delusion of our age. We have reduced the cosmos to a machine, an inhuman thing to be controlled. The spiritual hierarchies are lost in this miscalculation and are instead described as aliens, non-human intelligences, or other invented terms that contain no initiatory meaning. We stand at the height of hubris, making ourselves gods within a mechanical cosmos. To truly progress, we must return to meaningful definitions of God, angel, and man. We can only advance when we are able to conceive of the cosmos as living and filled with living spiritual beings, just as we ourselves are. A cosmos of life. When we can do this, our true nature and purpose can be revealed, and we can take our rightful place as the tenth member of the hierarchy. How we define something declares its nature, and the nature of our world is not that of a machine.

#WATCH | On being asked what kind of relationship India wants with China, EAM Dr S Jaishankar says, "We have a very unique relationship. First, we are the only two countries in the world with over a billion people. Both of us have a long history, with ups and downs over time. Today, both countries are on an upward trajectory; here is the challenge, and we are also direct neighbours. The challenge is that as any country rises, its balance with the world and its neighbours changes. When two countries of this size, history, complexity, and significance rise in parallel, they inevitably interact. The key issue is how to create a stable equilibrium and transition into the next phase of balance. We want a stable relationship where our interests are respected, our sensitivities are recognized, and where it works for both of us. That is really the main challenge in our relationship. For India, the border is a critical aspect. Over the past 40 years, the assumption has been that peace and tranquillity in the border areas are essential for the relationship to grow. If the border is unstable, not peaceful, or lacks tranquillity, it will inevitably affect the growth and direction of our relationship..." (Source: Social media page of Dr S Jaishankar)

Happy 4th of July? Millions of Americans think they’re celebrating 250 years of “freedom” today, but what they’re really celebrating is 250 years of corruption, endless war, and a capitalist system that exploits the many to enrich the few. The uncomfortable truth is none of us in the U.S. are free. We are owned by banks, exploited by billionaires, and controlled by two parties that sell us out at every turn. Freedom is just the illusion they sell to hide the cage and prevent people from ever questioning the dictatorship of capital that controls, exploits, and monetizes every aspect of our lives from birth to death. Where is the freedom when a handful of billionaires [and a trillionaire] hoard ungodly fortunes through the mass exploitation of our labor and the mass extraction of resources that belong to our communities? Where is the freedom when our tax dollars fund endless wars, genocide, and the mass murder of children abroad all to further enrich the billionaire class? Where is the freedom when 70% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck and struggle to afford basic needs like housing, healthcare, and groceries? Where is the freedom when 75% of Americans can’t afford a median-priced home, 100 million Americans live with medical debt, and 140 million Americans are poor or low-income? There is no freedom here. We are all prisoners of a decrepit capitalist system that keeps us trapped in the rat race by demonizing the one economic system, socialism, that would put the economy in the hands of the people. Imagine a world where workers own the means of production, resources are used for the benefit of all, and decisions are made to meet the basic needs of the people rather than the endless greed of billionaires. That is socialism, and there is nothing scary about it. What is scary is continuing to allow a handful of billionaires and two capitalist parties to control our entire economy and make life-or-death decisions for all of humanity. Now is not the time to celebrate a “freedom” that we never had. Now is the time to fight for our freedom from the dictatorship of capital.

Happy 4th of July? Millions of Americans think they’re celebrating 250 years of “freedom” today, but what they’re really celebrating is 250 years of corruption, endless war, and a capitalist system that exploits the many to enrich the few. The uncomfortable truth is none of us in the U.S. are free. We are owned by banks, exploited by billionaires, and controlled by two parties that sell us out at every turn. Freedom is just the illusion they sell to hide the cage and prevent people from ever questioning the dictatorship of capital that controls, exploits, and monetizes every aspect of our lives from birth to death. Where is the freedom when a handful of billionaires [and a trillionaire] hoard ungodly fortunes through the mass exploitation of our labor and the mass extraction of resources that belong to our communities? Where is the freedom when our tax dollars fund endless wars, genocide, and the mass murder of children abroad all to further enrich the billionaire class? Where is the freedom when 70% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck and struggle to afford basic needs like housing, healthcare, and groceries? Where is the freedom when 75% of Americans can’t afford a median-priced home, 100 million Americans live with medical debt, and 140 million Americans are poor or low-income? There is no freedom here. We are all prisoners of a decrepit capitalist system that keeps us trapped in the rat race by demonizing the one economic system, socialism, that would put the economy in the hands of the people. Imagine a world where workers own the means of production, resources are used for the benefit of all, and decisions are made to meet the basic needs of the people rather than the endless greed of billionaires.

Marc Andreessen says AI is hyper democratizing. “Is the future of the world going to be one or a small number of companies, or for that matter, governments or super AIs that kind of own and control everything?” “Or is this a technology that's going to diffuse out and be in everybody's hands?” “This is the time in which AI is actually hyper democratizing. It has spread to more individuals, both in the country and around the world in the shortest period of time of any new technology I think in history.” “The best AIs in the world are in the consumer products.” “This technology is going to be in everybody's hands. And everybody is going to be able to use it to optimize the things that they do, have it be a thought partner, assistant for building companies.” Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸

Chancellor Merz: We are not at the mercy of this world. We can shape it. ◾️As Peter Sloterdijk wrote a few weeks ago, Europe has ended its long vacation from world history. Together, we have crossed the threshold into an era that once again is marked by power and, above all, by great power politics. ◾️Our first task as Europeans, and, of course, as Germans, is to acknowledge this new reality. That does not mean that we simply accept it as an unalterable fate. We are not at the mercy of this world. We can shape it.

Christianity is a National Security Threat: "We have a Bible mandate to be a comfort to the Jewish people because they have been through the hell of the Holocaust" "God has never called the Gentile people in the Old Testament his people. These are the Jewish people" "We are doing what we are doing in order to ensure that America continues to survive and thrive because the Bible says, "I will bless those who bless you, Israel. I will curse those who curse you, Israel." "History has shown us that both biblical and otherwise. And whether we like it or not, the modern state of Israel is proof positive that the Bible is true and that God is real." "And that is why we do what we do. If the nation of is Israel ceased to exist, then the Bible is a lie. And so we are not lobbying for a foreign nation. We are exercising what we believe is our biblical mandate to do what we can to bless the nation of Israel and its people"

In my interview with LBC, I explained that this is a full scale revolution that is growing organically through the leadership of numerous leaders, which is why the regime has a much harder time to crack down on the protests as it cannot pinpoint a source. Now is the time for us to unite around what we all want, which is freedom, the overthrowing of the regime and establishment of the secular democratic system in Iran. The people of Iran continue to embrace the support of President Trump, as it gives them hope to continue towards the overthrow of this evil regime. I am sure that President Trump also appreciates the sacrifices being made by the people of Iran, not only for their own freedom, but the safety and security of the entire world. And on this point, it is time that other world leaders, including Sir Keir Starmer Keir Starmer break their silence and stand with the people of Iran. #IRGCterrorist #IranRevolution

🧵“What underpins a world order is always the financial system." Pippa Malmgren, World Government Summit Dubai, 2022. This is from my new article: "We are on the brink of a dramatic change where we are about to abandon the traditional system of money and accounting and introduce a new one. And the new one is what we call blockchain. It means digital. It means having an almost perfect record of every single transaction that happens in the economy, which will give us far greater clarity over what's going on. It also raises huge dangers in terms of the balance of power between states and citizens. In my opinion, we're going to need a digital constitution of human rights if we're going to have digital money. Most people think that digital money is crypto and private, but what I see are superpowers introducing digital currency. The Chinese were the first. The US is on the brink of moving in the same direction. The Europeans have committed to that as well.” >>

Zubeidah Kananu: Don't lead a country out of emotions. The government needs to respect the media and give us the right and opportunity to do what is rightfully our mandate. We condemn what the government has done and the statement given by the director general of the Communication Authority and we urge all media houses to ensure that any information they publish is verified, accurate and is safe for public consumption. We ask, what is it that we are hiding? What is it that we don't want the public to know, the audience to be informed of? What is it they are hiding as a government? #GenZRevolt

For us, it is not the size of a country's population that matters, but its commitment to the welfare of its people, and therefore, we have learnt a lot from New Zealand and are still learning from it. New Zealand is the first country to give women the right to vote. In New Zealand's society, we can see that women are contributing hugely. India, too, with the mantra of women-led development, is opening avenues of opportunities for women. - PM Narendra Modi Watch full address:
