We partnered with @X to level up trading from crypto cashtags on the TL.

Trade Now takes you direct to the token page on @coinbase, letting you take action on alpha more quickly.

Enjoyed working with the BD teams on this one. We’re live in the US! 🔥

A new era of Coinbase is here.

I want us to be the #1 financial services app in the world. With our new releases like stock trading and prediction markets, our financial management tools that outperform traditional alternatives, and our crypto as a service offerings, we’re positioned to make this a reality.

🇺🇸🇨🇳 TESLA PATENTED THE HOLY GRAIL OF LITHIUM REFINING, AND CHINA'S ENTIRE CHOKEHOLD IS CRACKING

Tesla's new patent isn't an improvement.

It's a full execution of the old lithium refining model.

They figured out how to generate the soda ash reagent on-site from the CO2 waste produced during calcination, turning the biggest emissions into the exact chemical needed for the leach process.

Result:
- ~30% lower refining costs
- 0 hazardous sodium-sulfate waste
- Near-0 external soda ash purchases
- Massive reduction in energy and water use

This is the refinery equivalent of discovering how to turn exhaust fumes into gasoline while you're driving.

China controls 60% of global lithium refining and almost all soda ash supply chains; they’ve been weaponizing both for years.

Tesla built the bypass.

Every other lithium producer is now officially obsolete.

Tesla batteries are about to get even cheaper, even greener, and completely independent of Beijing's mood swings.

[Coinbase 🛡️ @coinbase]

We’re doubling down on @Solana.

Coinbase is acquiring @VECTORDOTFUN, an onchain trading platform built on Solana, whose tech will plug directly into Coinbase to help better serve one of crypto’s most active ecosystems.

[Josh Sookman @jsookman]

Pretty unbelievable progress here.

🚨 NEURALINK SUBMITS FIRST PEER-REVIEWED PAPER WITH HUMAN DATA

Neuralink submitted results from its first 3 patients to the New England Journal of Medicine - the company's first peer-reviewed publication with human data.

Includes safety data. Performance metrics. The stuff that actually matters for regulatory approval and scaling beyond experimental trials.

Brad, the first ALS patient, used Neuralink to narrate and edit a YouTube video using only brain signals. Custom AI trained on his pre-ALS voice recordings restored his natural speech.

He played Mario Kart with his kids using thought control.

"That moment was incredible," said Neuralink co-founder DJ Seo.

Scientific credibility matters. Publishing in NEJM signals they're ready to move from hype to medicine.
