we're making @blocks smaller today. here's my note to the company.
####
today we're making one of the hardest decisions in the history of our company: we're reducing our organization by nearly half, from over 10,000 people to just under 6,000. that means over 4,000 of you are being asked to leave or entering into consultation. i'll be straight about what's happening, why, and what it means for everyone.
first off, if you're one of the people affected, you'll receive your salary for 20 weeks + 1 week per year of tenure, equity vested through the end of may, 6 months of health care, your corporate devices, and $5,000 to put toward whatever you need to help you in this transition (if you’re outside the U.S. you’ll receive similar support but exact details are going to vary based on local requirements). i want you to know that before anything else. everyone will be notified today, whether you're being asked to leave, entering consultation, or asked to stay.
we're not making this decision because we're in trouble. our business is strong. gross profit continues to grow, we continue to serve more and more customers, and profitability is improving. but something has changed. we're already seeing that the intelligence tools we’re creating and using, paired with smaller and flatter teams, are enabling a new way of working which fundamentally changes what it means to build and run a company. and that's accelerating rapidly.
i had two options: cut gradually over months or years as this shift plays out, or be honest about where we are and act on it now. i chose the latter. repeated rounds of cuts are destructive to morale, to focus, and to the trust that customers and shareholders place in our ability to lead. i'd rather take a hard, clear action now and build from a position we believe in than manage a slow reduction of people toward the same outcome. a smaller company also gives us the space to grow our business the right way, on our own terms, instead of constantly reacting to market pressures.
a decision at this scale carries risk. but so does standing still. we've done a full review to determine the roles and people we require to reliably grow the business from here, and we've pressure-tested those decisions from multiple angles. i accept that we may have gotten some of them wrong, and we've built in flexibility to account for that, and do the right thing for our customers.
we're not going to just disappear people from slack and email and pretend they were never here. communication channels will stay open through thursday evening (pacific) so everyone can say goodbye properly, and share whatever you wish. i'll also be hosting a live video session to thank everyone at 3:35pm pacific. i know doing it this way might feel awkward. i'd rather it feel awkward and human than efficient and cold.
to those of you leaving…i’m grateful for you, and i’m sorry to put you through this. you built what this company is today. that's a fact that i'll honor forever. this decision is not a reflection of what you contributed. you will be a great contributor to any organization going forward.
to those staying…i made this decision, and i'll own it. what i'm asking of you is to build with me. we're going to build this company with intelligence at the core of everything we do. how we work, how we create, how we serve our customers. our customers will feel this shift too, and we're going to help them navigate it: towards a future where they can build their own features directly, composed of our capabilities and served through our interfaces. that's what i'm focused on now. expect a note from me tomorrow.

POV: Tu te lèves à 5 h du marteau tous les jours depuis 10 ans.
Tu rates des anniversaires, des vacances, des nuits de sommeil.
Tu montes ta boîte brique par brique, tu encaisses les refus, les découverts, les semaines à 80 heures.
Le jour où tu touches ton premier million, l’État t’en prend 550 000.
Tu dis rien, tu continues. Tu aimes ton pays.
Le soir, tu ouvres TikTok. Un gamin en pyjama Primark, dans la chambre de ses parents, explique que t'es un riche et que tu ne payes pas assez. 4 millions de likes.
Le lendemain, tu descends dans la rue. Des mecs sortis de fac de socio, roulées au bec et 8-6 à la main ont le temps de danser et chanter "Taxez les riches" car ils vivent du RSA et du status d'intermittent du spectacle que tu finances généreusement.
Jupiter shitshow, very cringe to watch,
I have paid in 2025 $500,000 in fees across 5 wallets, i checked this in dune volume checker, i did $900,000,000 in volume
Jupiter perps charges 3 times more fees than Hyperliquid, their system is so predatory that when margin is low they liquidate you and keep the remaining margin, they charge more than 5 times the fees Binance or ByBit charges, if you are short you don't earn funding fees (they charge you borrow rate on top) and if you are long you pay also, in other exchanges if you are short you usually get paid 0.013% hourly
Not only they have the worst and most expensive system, that extracted more than a billion dollars from liquidated Solana Perp Traders
Now after they promised and passed the DAO vote for 2 years, they decide to go back in their word and finesse all their traders and fee payers, that were heavily miss treated and paid unreal amount of fees with the promise of "Jupuary" in January of 2026
Terrible terrible look, never expected such L move, shame on you, i hope you guys reflect on this and listen to the obvious critics from your community, your users, your fee payers,
do better, @weremeow@JupiterExchange
The crypto protocol (Hyperliquid) currently tectonically reshaping financial markets (with 24/7 perpetual futures products across crypto/equities/commodities/rates) is trading at 7.6x earnings. COIN stock is trading at 23x forward earnings and HOOD is trading at 30x. Will be interesting to see where this is in a few weeks/months
