And so much more that I can't fit here, more highlights below 👇
@SecDef @POTUS This is tip of the spear great. It is a starting point. It is the right intention. Next, can you & POTUS give an order to comply with legal Executive Order 14210, dated February 11, 2025 by mandating ALL commands reply OPM message (5 Points -What did you do @ work last week)?
@elonmusk Yes - but it must be clearly coordinated and communicated from the President to all agency heads. Each must clearly communicate to agency subordinates - then from the top down you will know who believes in MEI -merit, excellence, & integrity
@america@DOGE Please coordinate wif Commander in Chief & SEC DEF that federal employees under the acting Under Sec of Defense (Personnel & Readiness) Mr. Darin S. Selnick -have been told NOT to respond to the OPM email "What did you do at work?" -Isn't this Undermining the Chain of Command!

Guys,
Agents are going to be the #1 users of blockchains.
Not humans.
It’s obvious once you see it.
We built an entirely new financial system from scratch,
which runs on open source code & software rails.
Who do you think is best suited to capitalise on that?
A human who sleeps 8 hrs a day & will likely make errors over time?
Or a literal machine-human hybrid that’s awake 24/7 & is birthed in code??
Agents won’t care about which chain it uses.
They won’t care for tribalism.
They’ll care about the best path of execution.
Agents won’t care about transacting multiple different tokens to perform a task.
They’ll just do it.
24/7.
No complaints.
Agents will take crypto mainstream
simply because they make this stuff easier to interface with.
They’ll abstract away the dirty work.
I predict agents will account for ~30% of all blockchain user transactions by end of 2025.
@TheMilesBron@SergeyNazarov $QNT is (just) a model of the REAL thing that banks and nation states create as (separate) CBDC - which is different than $LINK IS!
I see this long list of initial capital markets users and early adopters of multiple Chainlink services as just the beginning.
Just like Chainlink became the standard for powering DeFi, there is now very active integration work and adoption of Chainlink in the TradFi/Capital markets.
Whether you're an asset manager, custodian bank, central bank, financial market infrastructure or various other traditional financial system participant, the Chainlink standard gets you transacting across multiple chains quickly, securely and in a compliant manner. There is no other standard that currently does that.
Similarly, in Hashgraph technology, nodes transmit signals in the form of transaction data to other nodes in the network, initiating the gossip protocol and facilitating consensus.
