At the #EasyAConsensusHackathon organized by @EasyA_App, I began developing an AI coding mobile app that turns plain-language specs into formally verified Solana programs (powered by Certora's AI Composer).
Think of a Replit app -- for secure development on Solana.
How can crypto solve problems in the real world?
Argentina Onchain was a 2 week residency with the goal of answering that question 👀
Here‘s what went down! 👇
Most of companies leading the space are completely disconnected from the real world and local communities…
They will come only a week because it’s @EFDevcon, not for Argentina unfortunately. I’m not sure they will have time to realize the real potential here. Just hoping they will get more in touch with communities like @crecimientoar to push the adoption further after November.
This country has the regulatory framework and really no choice to use crypto daily. If you are looking for users, just go there. Don’t forget to adapt your content in Spanish as well.
I already spent 5 months in Argentina in less than 2 years, and I hope to spend more time here 🇦🇷
@pete_rizzo_ If it's only a statement about "burning" keys, it wouldn't meet the "don't trust, verify" test.
Isn't there a "zero address" on Bitcoin, where funds are demonstrably not recoverable?
@adamscochran I did check too quickly, assuming there must be something corresponding to their statements.
It's unfortunate that you shifted your focus from excellent crypto content to hostile interactions about politics, regularly demeaning others.
@adamscochran 3/3
How can you know those are legitimate? Did you miss the first two by searching for “between $70m and $75m” when DOGE mentioned “$75M”?

This week, @Interior is dissolving the Federal Consulting Group (FCG), where one government department charges another to broker consulting contracts.
As an example, FCG brokered a $75M contract to design website customer satisfaction surveys, and then attempted to award $830M to conduct similar surveys. The latter contract was discovered by @Interior and DOGE, and cancelled before signature.
Example of the work product:

There is also one for $73,235,606.50 for “IGF::OT::IGF SAP APPLICATION HOSTING SERVICES” with SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORP which might include the website?

@cz_binance Even if you don't want to profit from your dog pic, consider providing an address that can benefit some initiative or the @Binance Foundation...
If the state of memecoin launches keeps being so disappointing, I will consider making a launchpad that advances these ideals…
But with so many competitors to Pump Fun being launched already, I’d like to ask if anybody is already making memecoins much better for the world, and how?
Are there also other better memecoin types I am missing?
5 Types of Memecoins That Can Do Better
It’s a shame that celebrities keep launching pointless memecoins for speculative value. In his March 29, 2024 article, @VitalikButerin called to consider what else they could be. He has long said that “issuing coins could be a new way to fund important public projects”. https://t.co/wc98DrPMRH
In this post, I’m going to restate his ideas and state more types. Token promoters wanting to be impactful can consider them. Buyers should form a consensus to only buy thoughtful projects, as led by major allocators committing to certain guidelines or token ratings.
After Pump Fun having launched on January 19, 2024, more should be expected from the leading launchpad to make memecoins more meaningful (and not just more "fun" or better curated, as it plans). Right before the January 20, 2025, inauguration, Donald Trump and Melania Trump could still get away with avoiding a "fair launch" as implemented by the launchpads, or thoughtfulness, given their status.
This should not be acceptable in 2025, but it is because of the money to be made, both by promoters and traders.
I call on Key Opinion Leaders to advocate on what else memecoins could be, and for a consensus to be formed around certain guidelines or token ratings to warrant allocations to memecoins (especially when publicly earmarking funds for memecoins like @AvalancheFDN did). More competition and manifested market interest in thoughtful approaches will be necessary so that pointless celebrity memecoins are not that appealing anymore.
