@thorborg Jeg oprettede et lånekort til mit lokale bibliotek i sidste uge. Mest for at kunne låne deres mødelokaler. Den venlige dame der oprettede mig sagde, at jeg skulle være opmærksom på, at alt support nu blev håndteret af AI, men forsikrede mig om, det fungerede ligeså godt som før.

We’re excited to share @PayPal is bringing its stablecoin, PYUSD, to Stellar.

When you need infrastructure that works beyond the hype—real payments, real merchants, real global reach—you build where millions already transact daily.

"Web3 user experience doesn't have to suck!"

That's what @StellarOrg challenged our gigabrains to prove at our EasyA @consensus2025 Hackathon 💫

And wow, did they do just that. All thanks to the incredible Stellar mentors and their tech 🧑‍💻

Check out what these gigabrains decided to @BuildOnStellar 👀👇

[Carsten Jacobsen @CarstenJacobsen]

I highly recommend this program, it's a great opportunity to learn from industry experts, founders and investors. I've been involved as a mentor, helping awesome founders build on Stellar.

The guys from @PaltaLabs were savages on the track! Great race!

[Build on Stellar @BuildOnStellar]

What happens when you give 35 core builders downtime? They optimize their racing algorithms at 60mph 🏁

[Carsten Jacobsen @CarstenJacobsen]

Looking forward to a great day at Consensus. Our Hackathon lounge is really nice. #Stellar

[Carsten Jacobsen @CarstenJacobsen]

Great Day 1 at the Builder Summit - I had the pleasure of giving the first presentation on the stage.

[Build on Stellar @BuildOnStellar]

Day 1 of the Toronto Builder Summit is just wrapping up, always great to see the Stellar ecosystem in person! 🔥

Gearing up for a full week of hacking & workshops with the Stellar ecosystem alongside @consensus2025

[Carsten Jacobsen @CarstenJacobsen]

Meet me at Consensus, I would love to connect IRL with devs from the community!

[Dobprotocol @dobprotocol]

[Carsten Jacobsen @CarstenJacobsen]

In the "good old days" you could thrive by having the best tech. Today it's more about how great a community do you have. When I look at tech companies today, I look at their community first, and their tech stack second.

@tveskov Tilbage i 2010 gjorde Obama da noget lignende med Chevy Volt. Han gav også Tesla et offentligt lån på knap en halv milliard dollars - og Obama administrationen tog da også en del af æren for Tesla’s succes senere.

[Carsten Jacobsen @CarstenJacobsen]

I’m super proud of the teams I’m mentoring in this current @draper_u x @StellarOrg Embark program - solving real-world problems using the Stellar blockchain. They all nailed it at the event in SF last week! @TrustlessWork @spnf_official #HazelTrade

[Carsten Jacobsen @CarstenJacobsen]

If you are a developer building on Stellar, please follow our new X account. The account will be used for release notifications (protocols, SDKs etc.) and other info relevant to Stellar devs.

Super cool use of @BeansApp and @StellarOrg at #Meridian2024

[Pickingunicorns @pickingunicorns]

Buy your coffee at #Stellar Meridian onchain with @beansapp POS.

✅ Pay in your own currency while the merchant gets theirs

✅ Settled in second without any fees

Check out the video to see how we paid with $NGNC while the merchant received $USDC

[Carsten Jacobsen @CarstenJacobsen]

Talking about building smart contracts on Stellar at HackMeridian in London. Can’t wait to see what everyone is building.

🎤 @CarstenJacobsen on stage live coding as he walks our gigabrains through how to @BuildOnStellar 🧑‍💻

[Carsten Jacobsen @CarstenJacobsen]

Great group of founders, I'm honored to mentor some of them during their stay at the Stellar Hacker House/Draper U. Good luck on pitch day team!

[Stellar @StellarOrg]
