As the producers of Medici LA 26, we want to thank the incredible founders, operators, policymakers, and institutions that helped make our event a great success.

Medici LA 26 is a wrap.

The conversations last week weren’t about the hypothetical. They were about the movement already happening underneath the global financial system: stablecoins becoming payment rails, tokenized markets moving into production, AI agents requiring programmable ownership and payments, and blockchain evolving into the invisible coordination layer underneath it all.

We’re actively watching real world deployment happen in real time.

Blockchain won. Those in attendance got an early look at who will win blockchain.

5/ 👏 Congrats on their feature in @FortuneMagazine:

American dynamism is back 🦅 and blockchain has an answer 📡

@HYFIXAI is building the first US semiconductor chips that are purpose-built for drones. The chips offer more precise positioning than standalone GNSS/GPS and circumvents jamming or spoofing, thanks to @GEODNET

We’re proud to back founder @mikeahorton alongside our friend @jefffluhr at @craft_ventures who led the round and met HYFIX at our conference @NetworkMedici

As leaders in bridging blockchain to web2, we see this as a great case study on how blockchain can empower critical industries beyond just finance 🧭

[Mike Horton @mikeahorton]

Proud of this one.

We just raised $15M to build American-made chips for drones and robotics.

For too long, the systems powering critical infrastructure have depended on fragile, foreign supply chains. We're rebuilding that foundation here in the U.S.

A lot more to come!

4/ This foundational infrastructure for the low-altitude economy applies to any vertical across defense, commercial, and consumer markets

The same core architecture naturally extends into humanoids, food delivery robots, and other autonomous systems, where momentum is also accelerating 🤖

[Finality @FinalityCap]

A near-term reset is still ahead for Bitcoin.

In an interview with @FXStreetNews, our GP @KamalMokeddem predicts Bitcoin could see one more move down to around $50,000 in May, coinciding with a peak in volatility and a broader risk-off environment.

Kamal also sees the S&P 500 correcting toward 5,500 within six months, with crypto likely bottoming around the same time or slightly ahead – reinforcing its role as a leading indicator for risk markets.

7/ And then there's @kirillzzy.

He built at VK — the same proving ground that shaped Pavel Durov before he shipped Telegram to 1B users. That's not a credential, it's a signal: he knows how to build identity and social infrastructure at internet scale, in a fast environment.

"Mission driven" undersells it. This is a founder who runs toward the hardest version of the problem. When AI broke online trust, he didn't write a paper and instead shipped a protocol.

That combination of technical urgency, scale experience, fair-launch conviction is rare. Rare enough to co-lead. 👽

[Finality @FinalityCap]

AI can now replicate humans online with perfect fidelity. Agents are transacting, speaking, and acting autonomously. Without proof-of-humanity, we no longer know who or what to trust.

We co-led @alienorg's seed with @Initialized to fix this. 🧵

[kirill avery @kirillzzy]

We raised $7.1M at Alien led by Initialized and Finality to give unique identities to humans and AI agents

The world is going wild and the trust online is breaking as we see it due to the rate of AI acceleration and the society’s inability to keep up

[Finality @FinalityCap]

6/ The closest analog is VeriSign in 1997. HTTP worked fine for browsing. The moment the web became transactional, you needed to know the site was real. VeriSign became the cryptographic trust layer.

Alien is VeriSign for the agentic internet. Except instead of verifying websites, it verifies actors. Every agent transacting, voting, borrowing, or scraping needs a trust anchor. That's not a feature — it's infrastructure for the entire internet.

The difference: VeriSign was a private gatekeeper. Aliencoin's fair launch means no platform has a reason to resist embedding it. That's why this one goes further.

An explosion of AI-generated code and a web increasingly run by agents are creating massive problems for provenance + attribution

@makechainnet is GitHub, but rebuilt from the ground up for the agentic web to offer better incentive alignment for every human and agent builder

[Christopher Wallace @christopherwxyz]

We're excited to drop our SPECIFICATION.md for Makechain: a protocol for making things.

We have a ton to share over the next few weeks: demos, apps, agents, onramps, and so much more built on top of this new network!

[Finality @FinalityCap]

Our GMP @adam_winnick joined @lancedlnews at @dlnews to talk about why the #Fed's hawkishness is actually great news for #blockchain builders.

"The best companies aren't built during periods of loose monetary policy. They're built during tightening."

Builders are shipping. We're backing them.
