🏝Tropical🏝 🇵🇷🥩 that $amp / Anvil

[Higuera @gHiguera86]

@immutablevalue @CipherMind__ @MemeEngineer8 They have this “pattern” of chasing one another… we might see it again soon

[Anvil 🛠️ @anvil_xyz]

Anvil is scaling on every front:

$5M in institutional governance participation.
Growing real-world business adoption.
New enterprise-ready SDK.

All accelerating institutional finance onchain.

$AMP starting to make a comeback? 👀

Good for me, good for you, good for @anvil_xyz TVL

[Anvil 🛠️ @anvil_xyz]

"By separating the guarantee from the underlying asset while keeping both visible, credit becomes a reusable primitive rather than a feature each app rebuilds."

@CoinDesk Research on why Anvil doesn't compete with other protocols, it sits underneath them.

@marc_saladino @ZhuGMI @usefinal Make of this what you will—as of now, Final is relying on Flexa for 100% of its regulated money movement.

Why Flexa Co-Founder Tyler Spalding Is Bullish on Zano 👀| Free the Money Ep. 40

@Trspalding is President of the @AcronymFNDN and the former Co-Founder & CEO of @FlexaHQ, a digital payments network. He has been mining and building in crypto since 2011 and has more than 20 years of experience across technology, payments and aerospace, including engineering work with the U.S. Air Force and NASA programs. His work in crypto and Web3 has spanned a number of projects, including @Anvil_xyz and @Spenders_club, with a longstanding focus on payments and bringing digital assets into real-world use.

In this episode, Tyler shares his perspective on what it will actually take for digital assets to become usable money and why privacy is essential for adoption at scale. For the first time publicly, Tyler discusses his longtime support for Zano, what he believes the project has gotten right, and why its approach to privacy and security has positioned it ahead of the curve in preparing for emerging AI threats.

We also discuss stablecoins, private digital dollars, Zano’s Hard Fork 6, cross-chain interoperability & Zcash. Tyler makes the case for Proof of Stake over Proof of Work, including the security risks he sees in PoW networks, and we explore the bigger challenge of moving crypto from something people simply hold to something they can privately and securely spend in the real world.

@brian_armstrong Crypto also enabled closed-loop payments onchain with @FlexaHQ, collateral management with @anvil_xyz, and ethereum:0xff20817765cb7f73d4bde2e66e067e58d11095c2 guaranteeing instant, final settlement any time value moves.

Happy Birthday, @SecScottBessent! Thank you for your service to our country and to the American people. 🇺🇸

[Sui @SuiNetwork]

@lofitheyeti Amazing to see the Sui community coming together to make a real-world impact. Congrats to the entire @lofitheyeti community on this incredible achievement!

[Amp @ampdotxyz]

@brian_armstrong agents need instant, final settlement more than anyone. no chargebacks, no waiting. the collateral layer for that already exists. ethereum:0xff20817765cb7f73d4bde2e66e067e58d11095c2.

That was a fun space! @realupneet and I set a new record for most questions answered in one hour, and I got a chance to share a bit more about what’s been happening at @usefinal (plus, I actually remembered to hit the “record” button this time). https://t.co/53wnW58Gpu

[CJ Bennett @the_real_CJ]

Just missed ya tonight @trev @realupneet

But! Saw the SEC release and now listening to the recording. I'm siked for @FlexaHQ and amps future. Stoked for you two, as well. 🔥

[// immutablevalue ∎ @immutablevalue]

Another great space! @trev & @realupneet knocked it out of the park again. Glad they answered a lot of questions, and elaborated on @usefinal. I’m super excited to see the progress

[// immutablevalue ∎ @immutablevalue]

@tyler Can we bring back Flexa integration, and list $ANVL. I would come back as a user if those two things happen.
