privacy wins
A big, quiet concession from the US Government today. They acknowledge that people have legitimate reasons to keep their finances private. I'm glad we've established that wanting privacy doesn't make you a criminal. Next step, protections for privacy developers.

more of this please
The statue of Prometheus is finally finished. It was cast in Paris, crossed the Atlantic, and was assembled at Starbase. It took us 100 days to go from nothing to this. People of the West, we have lived through an era devoid of dreams, devoid of destiny. But the time has come to reclaim our dream of antiquity. In a few months, we will start building a new city. It will be the most magnificent city in all of history. After all, the great dream of the West has always been to rebuild Rome. Come walk beside us in this endeavor. The world is waiting.

couldn't be more proud of our team getting here wasn't easy and the real work lies ahead... but today, today feels pretty damn good
Today, @worldlibertyfi received conditional approval from the OCC to organize World Liberty Trust Company, N.A., a national trust bank designed from the ground up to issue $USD1 and provide custody under federal supervision. Rigorous oversight, institutional controls and clear accountability are how stablecoins become trusted financial infrastructure. Our ambition is clear: to build the most trusted and widely used digital dollar in the world while strengthening the role of the U.S. dollar across the global economy.

So long, America🫡🇺🇸 49 days ago we landed in the USA to follow our country at the World Cup. We had no idea it would turn into the trip of a lifetime. Thank you to everyone who followed along, and to all the people we met who made this journey even more special. We honestly don’t have the words to express how grateful we are for everything you did for us. This trip exceeded every expectation we had. We came here with an open mind, wanting to experience as much of the country as possible. I still remember telling my friends on the flight to Atlanta that I hoped we’d get to meet a few locals on this trip. Now we’re flying home with friends all across the USA. Before we came, we heard so many stereotypes and warnings about America. People told us about safety concerns, that they might check our social media at the border, and all kinds of other things. None of it matched our experience. This was probably the most welcoming country we’ve ever visited. So if you have the chance to travel, do it. The world isn’t nearly as bad as the media often makes it seem. 99% of people are awesome! I heard this quote somewhere during the World Cup, and I think it sums up our experience perfectly: “If you want to hate the world, watch the news. If you want to love it, travel it.” Thank you, America ❤️🇺🇸

do we think jimothy has noticed anything different this week? like the fact that the entire world is watching him and trying to hunt him down for more photo ops? or do we think its just another day in the life for little ol' jimothy?

in 2022, i started @nashvilledegens with one simple goal → make nashville the crypto capital of the south our first meetup had 3 people, but we kept going today, we’re 170+ members strong, with ~30 people at each nashville crypto meetup members help each other hire, raise capital, find customers, improve products, and launch new ideas that kind of community isn’t built overnight — it’s built by people who keep showing up if you’re in crypto and live in nashville, say hi below if you know someone who does, send this to them
