Steve Jobs never left a will.
But before he died, he transferred all of his shares to a trust.
That single move made her wife a billionaire overnight
And saved his family billions in taxes.
Here’s how the world’s most iconic CEO hacked estate taxes forever:

Gauging interest -- Reply to this post if you have Solana programs/smart contracts that involve crank turning and you'd like to automate this process rather than running scripts to hit the endpoints. If you're familiar with the old Clockwork, this is similar. A decentralized set of crank turners that compete to execute your transaction at the given time, ensuring high resiliency vs just running your own script.
Some examples:
* A vesting contract that unlocks tokens on some interval and sends them to a user.
* Any manual process where a user claims rewards once available.
* Cleanup tasks for short-lived accounts.
* Rebalance pools/trading strategies
* Time-based trading strategies
* Run tasks during off-hours when fees are lower
Note that while these tasks are ideally permissionless, they can also be permissioned if necessary.
DeepSeek just proved the 'worthless' GPT wrapper startups are actually the ones with real moats.
A week ago, nothing was more LOW status than being a 'GPT wrapper' startup.
But I think we're learning that's DEAD wrong. Turns out they were just early to the only game that matters
While DeepSeek, Meta, Anthropic and Microsoft battle over benchmark scores, these 'wrapper' companies have been quietly building the only moat that matters: interface loyalty.
Because of how big owning the LLM is for national defense and the economy, the next breakthrough model is always 2 weeks away. DeepSeek launches today, someone else drops a better one tomorrow.
But getting millions of people to make your product part of their daily workflow - that's the real barrier to entry. ChatGPT didn't win because it had the best model. It won because it was dead simple to use. And I think it has staying power because of that.
This is why all those AI startups we dismissed are actually positioned to win. They're not competing on model performance - they're competing on being the default way humans interact with AI.
Frontier models are becoming commodities. User habits aren't. While everyone obsesses over the next architecture breakthrough, the real game is being played in the interface layer. The moat isn't in the model - it's in being the tool people reach for without thinking.
Technology advantage is temporary. Interface lock-in is forever.
Keep shipping those wrappers, my friends.
