The social, financial, and commercial graph layers will be a new intertwined 3D web that various algorithms will try to serve to users. The internet-native transaction facilitated by crypto will help to tie it all together.

We are pleased to share that we have successfully demonstrated the ability to increase lucidity in dreams.
This critical milestone opens the door for our devices to ship soon.
We’re excited to share today that we’re backed by @greenfield_cap , alongside an incredible group of investors including @KosmosVC, @genventurecap, @ZeePrimeCap and other strategic funds and angels.
Share is an internet infrastructure network building Africa’s backbone. We've built an open-access model that allows internet providers to deliver 100x speeds without increasing their costs.
By consolidating the fragmented internet ecosystem in Africa, we’re powering connectivity for the youngest and fastest growing population in the world.

The shift in the crypto fundraising landscape the past 6 months has been insane.
Crypto VCs used to have to constantly be networking/writing/podcasting/going on spaces/promoting your thesis/getting on 10 deal flow calls a week, to get into good deals...now it's literally enough to just have capital to write checks.
Deals are being pushed rather than dug out. Inbound if people know you have money is at an all-time high.
Most firms are either 1) Out of money 2) Moved to Series A and beyond or 3) Fundraising (with no success).
Deals that used to close in 2-3 weeks now close in 2-3 months.
Firms with questionable business models or copy pasta of the latest trend are getting zero primary or follow-on funding (Good news!).
There are now realistically <20 firms writing checks in pre-seed/seed.
VCs basically have the pick of any deal they want, with more time to do DD.
IMHO 25/26 are going to be historic vintages for those who stick around.
Announcing the Zee Prime Residency
A live testing ground for deep tech founders at @EdgeEsmeralda (May 30 - June 27)
One month to advance, deploy, and stress-test your project in a village of 1,000+ builders, researchers, and mentors.
Created with @ZeePrimeCap 🧵
Four years.
Vaults. Accounts. Payments.
Countless users, builders, and ideas that shaped what onchain could be.
Brahma has been acquired by @Polymarket and a new chapter begins.

.@AftermathFi perpetuals is FINALLY going live with pre-deposits opening later this week (more on this soon).
Here's why we built on Sui, and why it's the only VM that can actually run a fully onchain orderbook. When I say onchain, I mean fully verifiable ordering and matching governed by the Sui validator set. No offchain sequencer or a gated API.
Everyone talks about "fully onchain orderbooks," but most chains can't run one without blowing up gas, latency, or both. Sui is the first L1 that makes it practical. Not as a demo, but in production. Although we built our own more efficient CLOB data structure, DeepBook (spot) has been running for over a year with solid results: https://t.co/x4cLdMM2kq
The key is Sui's object model. Every market is a separate object. Every order is an object. Markets don't contend with each other. BTC-perp trades don't block SUI-perp trades. While fills within a single market still need ordering, there's no global lock serializing all state updates. EVM can't do this. Its account model means validators can't determine upfront which transactions are independent, forcing serial execution of everything.
Since each market object evolves independently:
-Deterministic sequencing per-market
-No cross-market contention
-No global queue slowdown
-State transitions only touch relevant objects
Mysticeti v2 eliminates the "single proposer decides ordering" problem most chains suffer from. Every validator proposes every round. Consensus commits leaders deterministically.
All validators determine order locally = all validators see the same result = deterministic ordering for matching and settlement. https://t.co/7XOaojddWd
PTBs + storage rebates = unreal savings. A bot canceled 4 orders and reposted them. One repost matched against 8 orders from other users. The storage rebate made the transaction net negative. That's not possible on any other chain. https://t.co/DlM5wcQwUU
On Sui:
-Storage is rented, not burned
-Canceling or matching returns storage
-Users can get paid when state is cleaned up
-PTBs make multi-action batching extremely cheap
This makes trading actually viable onchain.
What I hope people take away from the pain and suffering we've experienced while building this thing since 2022 is:
-because every market is an object, anyone can build their own API.
-No centralized gateway.
-No private matching engine.
-All matching lives onchain. Liquidations, funding, market orders, perp positions, AFLP. All shared and tokenized. This isn't possible on systems where CLOB logic lives offchain.
-Programmable cancel priority. We expose an explicit fee knob: makers can pay a known premium (set in-contract) for cancel priority. It’s transparent and priced with no opaque operator favors.
Finally, what we all care about: Launch.
AFLP is Sui's first community owned perpetual market maker. By depositing into the vault, you provide liquidity and act as a liquidator across our perp markets. Pre deposits will open end of week, with details on how to deposit coming tomorrow.
The first perp on a @Kalshi prediction market just went live on @HelixMarkets testnet with a perp on the Canelo vs. Crawford fight.
You can now trade with 1x leverage (for now) on @injective testnet.

The next robotics breakthrough won’t come from a single lab. It will come from a network of researchers, builders, and teleoperators working together.

“HairDAO’s first topical treatment was developed with just $140,000 in 1.5 years – a fraction of what it would typically cost.”
Honored for @HairDAO_ to be included in this year's Future 50! Thank you for including us @mariogabriele!
Quite a while ago I presented a controversial idea at an event we hosted with the folks at @Collab_Currency in New York.
Suffice to say, it was basically gentrify to earn.
And while I joke at a high level, there was something deeper to the idea.
