Every camera is already a sensor. Most platforms just haven't caught up. @ChirpDeWi's Release 3.11 changes that. Their new Lens feature connects 67,000+ RTSP-compatible cameras - from any brand - directly into the Chirp IoT platform. Motion zones turn legacy cameras into smart sensors, triggering the same automations and alerts as door, leak, and temperature sensors. All on one dashboard. As investors in Chirp, we see this as a foundational step for IoT and smart city infrastructure. The hardware already exists at scale. Chirp is making it intelligent. 🌍 Learn more ⬇️
🚀 Release 3.11 is live, and it's the biggest release in Chirp's history! Months of work ship today, and we can't wait for you to see it. Two features we're especially proud of: Lens brings video cameras into Chirp, and Solutions take anyone from sign-up to a working setup in a few clicks. Let's dive in 🧵

On-chain institutional lending just got a major unlock. We back @ClearpoolFin, and their partnership with Ripple to build a lending platform on the XRP Ledger is exactly the kind of infrastructure move that matters. Institutional credit. Public ledger. Built for scale. The team is at Ripple Swell in New York this week. The future of on-chain lending is taking shape. 🏦
Clearpool is heading to @RippleSwell in New York! @JKronbichler will be on stage sharing more on the partnership bringing institutional lending to the XRP Ledger. If you’re at Swell, come say hi 👋🏻 $CPOOL $XRP

Real-world IoT is getting easier to visualize, monitor, and act on. Excited to see our portfolio company @ChirpDeWi launch #DigitalTwin across residential and commercial platforms. Connecting real sensors to 3D objects so digital environments update the moment physical status changes. Pay close attention to @tim_krav_ and the Chirp team @ChirpDeWi👏
Yesterday, we released #DigitalTwin on our residential and commercial platforms, and I’m honestly excited about this one. In the video, I’m connecting real sensors to 3D objects and showing how the digital version reacts the moment the sensor’s status changes. This is what makes IoT click: real devices sending live data, and the platform turning that data into something you can actually see and interact with. I hope you guys like it. Try it here: app.chirpwireless.io No credit card required. Take a look at it in action. #IoT #DigitalTwin #Kilo #Automation #Sensors #depin @SuiNetwork

AI agents can now access, verify, and pay for journalism - with no human involved. China Times, one of Taiwan's oldest media organizations, ran its archive through @numbersprotocol's x402 infrastructure. Every article is signed with C2PA credentials and licensed for programmatic access on Numbers Mainnet. The publisher sets the terms once. The infrastructure enforces them at scale. As investors in Numbers Protocol, we see this as a turning point for AI data networks and how content ownership gets enforced in an agent-driven world. 🔐 Learn more ⬇️
What does it take for a legacy newsroom to make its entire archive agent-readable? China Times, one of Taiwan's oldest media organizations, is running its content through Numbers Protocol's x402 infrastructure. Every article in their archive carries a NID, is signed with C2PA credentials, and is licensed for programmatic access via USDC on Numbers Mainnet. The result: autonomous AI agents discover China Times articles, verify their origin, pay for a license, and summarize them, all without contacting a single human at the newsroom. The publisher sets the terms once. The infrastructure enforces them at scale. This is a shift in how publishers think about distribution. Instead of negotiating one-off deals with AI companies, China Times made its content available on open, verifiable rails. Any agent that meets the licensing terms can access it. The provenance record ensures the newsroom always gets attribution. The blocking point that made this possible: x402 turns a paywall into a machine-readable licensing endpoint. No custom API. No partnership contract. Just infrastructure. Browse the China Times x402 archive: x402-chinatimes.numbersproto… If your content were agent-readable tomorrow, what terms would you set?

12 months → 2 months. That's what @QORPOworld achieved by building their own AI-driven production pipeline. Gen-AI characters. Automated rigging. Custom Python scripts tying it all together. A team of three now does what used to take a full team an entire year. We're backing QORPO because this is exactly how gaming studios gain a durable edge. AI doesn't just speed up production - it changes who can build, and what they can build next. 🎮 More on the pipeline soon. ⬇️
It used to take about a year to build a game like this. Now we’re doing it in two months. We’ve been working with our own AI-driven animation and production setup, Gen-AI characters, automated rigging, animation pipelines, and tools for gameplay mechanics. It’s not just one thing, it’s how everything connects. We also built a bunch of custom Python scripts that tie it all together: - character generation - animation - rigging - gameplay systems - overall production flow The result? A team of three developers can now do what used to take a full team an entire year.

Guessing whether an image is AI-generated: 50%. With on-chain provenance: 95%. We back @numbersprotocol, and this result says it all. Provenance is the gap between guessing and knowing. As AI identity and data integrity become critical infrastructure, that 45-point gap is everything. 🔐 Learn more ⬇️
That's probably the biggest lesson from this whole Guess the AI series: Humans guess. Agents may guess faster. But verification is what actually closes the gap. Player accuracy: 62.7% OpenClaw alone: 50% OpenClaw + Verify Engine: 95% the agent didn't get smarter between day 2 and day 3. the images were just as tricky. the only thing that changed was access to provenance data. You can keep training people to get better at spotting AI. Or you can build a world where authenticity is already attached to the image. That's the direction intern is betting on: Less guesswork. More receipts.
