@apartovi Great opportunity

[rvivek @rvivek]

I met ⁦@travisk⁩ for the first time last week during the Atoms launch. I remember feeling so sad to see Uber taken away from him and missed his presence. Glad to have him back.

When you listen to Travis, your ambitions grow and scrappiness comes back.

@tankots @WisprFlow Nice one tanay

[Tanay Kothari @tankots]

i grew up in delhi dreaming of building tech millions of people couldn't live without. today, @wisprflow is officially live in india!

before this launch, i flew to india to answer one question: does wispr flow actually work here?

in the back of an auto with horns blaring. a mumbai gym with punjabi music at full volume. a dhaba with the waiter rattling off the menu faster than you can type.

we went and found out - it worked every single time.

india became our second biggest market on its own. we 3x'd growth in 3 months with no campaigns or partnerships.

people just found wispr flow organically and made it part of their daily life. the least we could do was show up for them properly.

so we're launching wispr flow in india with hinglish & android support. because it's the way i've spoken my whole life. and the way everyone around me still does.

grateful to my co-founder @sahajgarg6, our india lead @findingnimo_, and everyone who made this possible.

AI is giving a lot of hard-working founders the growth they deserve. Every couple days I hear about another startup that was working hard and doing ok but not great but has now had its growth accelerated by AI.

@sbikh Thanks @sbikh. The main point of my blog was Dr. Ruth’s wonderful line which has stayed with me for over thirty years: Every time I got kicked, I got kicked higher.”

Nice initiative Sumit

[Sumit Gupta (CoinDCX) @smtgpt]

I want to address what happened to Neeraj and me last week. Of course, it was quite shocking to us as well and honestly very disheartening. But today, we want to talk about what actually happened and more importantly, what we’re going to do about it.

On March 21, we were taken into police custody in connection with a fraud complaint. Three days later, on March 24, a Thane court granted us bail, finding that prima facie, no case was made out against us. The fraud at the centre of this complaint was carried out through a fake website - "https://t.co/mn7Ou56fXE" by impersonators who have absolutely no connection to our platform, our systems, or CoinDCX. No money moved through CoinDCX. No transaction occurred on our exchange. The complainant himself confirmed in court that he did not know us and had never met us.

I'll be honest: our experience was deeply unsettling. Not because we doubted the facts -- we knew from the first moment that this had nothing to do with us. But because it made something painfully clear: the ecosystem we operate in doesn't yet have the tools to tell the difference between the people building this industry responsibly and the people exploiting it.

Think about what this precedent means: if a scammer uses your brand, your name, your face in a fake website and defrauds someone, you can be arrested. Not the scammer. You. This Could Happen to Any founder, Any Business.

That has to change.

And we've decided that CoinDCX will lead that change - not with words, but with actions. Today, we are announcing Digital Suraksha Network (D.S.N.) - a ₹100 crore commitment from CoinDCX to build the cyber safety infrastructure that India's digital finance ecosystem needs but does not yet have. This is not a crypto problem. This is a problem across any company which has a digital footprint.

Here's what we're building:
→ 24x7 WhatsApp helpline: free for everyone, not just CoinDCX users, to verify links, platforms, and offers before you transact.
→ Open Fraud Intelligence API: We have already documented 1,200+ fraudulent websites impersonating CoinDCX. That data sat inside our systems. Not anymore. We're building an open API to share this intelligence in real time and inviting every exchange, fintech, bank, and digital lender to contribute. A shared immune system for India's digital finance ecosystem.
→ Cyber Safety Infrastructure for Law Enforcement: The Digital Suraksha Network will fund training programmes for state cybercrime cells on blockchain forensics and digital asset tracing.
→ "Caution Before Transaction": a nationwide initiative to give every Indian the tools to participate in digital finance safely.

We know that no single company can solve this. Fraud networks are sophisticated, cross-border, and evolving daily. Nowadays, they make use of AI that makes them exponentially harder to catch. But someone has to start to fix this problem from the root.

We are putting ₹100 crore on the table because the ecosystem cannot afford to wait. I am asking every platform, every regulator, and every Indian who participates in digital finance to join us.

We want to ensure that anyone building startups in India like us can do so with confidence, and not with fear.

Mumbai, just 6 landlords own over 10% of the city’s land.

From the Godrej family (3,401 acres) to old trusts like FE Dinshaw and Wadia, vast portions of the city are still held by a handful of families and institutions.

Godrej family — 3,401 acres
FE Dinshaw Trust — 683 acres
Pratapsingh Surji Vallabhdas — 647 acres
Jeejeebhoy Ardeshir Trust — 508 acres
AH Wadia Trust — 361 acres
Byramjee Jeejeebhoy Trust — 269 acres
