Excited to double up on @lxdev_ following the @BTCFiNetwork

Privacy is critical for Bitcoin’s long term success. Without it, money becomes surveillance infrastructure hurting fungibility, personal security, and censorship resistance.

Bitcoin and Cardano are now united by Charms. 🟠🤝🔵

We sent eBTC and BRO to Cardano.
We sent ADA, SNEK, and USDM to Bitcoin.
We unlocked cross-compatible Rust+WASM dapps for both chains.

[Maxime Bucaille @maxime_bucaille]

The number and quality of applications coming into the @BTCFiNetwork Accelerator is telling.

There’s always been an inverse correlation between price and founder quality, the best builders show up when it’s quiet.

No better time to be building on Bitcoin 🟠🟠🟠
