Another exciting step forward for Code. It’s a novel approach to mainstream crypto purchasing that combines debit cards, USDC, and a DEX into a single experience. Let us know what you think, what worked, and what might be improved.
A fun tradition has started on https://t.co/vlNe7If6xG - crowdfunding pictures of coffees around the world using the Code Payments SDK! Paris, Berlin, and now LA. Code is the only way to easily empower your users to both earn and spend real value. More: https://t.co/kLFRVKq5Yy
Excited to share that Code has raised $6.5 million in a seed round financing to help accelerate the growth of our new global payments platform.
Full details on the round and what's next below: https://t.co/lbNTXpvUr1
crazy timing today, total coincidence
ironically @getcode is the one team that has resilience against Solana outages!!
they have their own enshrined "soft-sequencer" that uses solana nonces for their payment networks
they're also tackling something that's OPOS: micropayments
could not be more proud to participate in this round
big things are coming
@ted_livingston and @tannerphilp are world-class builders
When M13's @latifperacha first met @getcode founder and CEO @ted_livingston, the thing he was most impressed by was his ability to keep his same core team of nine together for a decade across multiple companies. It is a testament to Ted's leadership and vision as well as to the power of enduring relationships.
Since selling @Kik, the first chat app to reach over 100 million users, Ted and team have been working on their next act, in a space that’s been discussed for decades: micropayments.
Code is a new global payments platform that allows creators to earn money on anything they put online. The experience for both sender and receiver is seamless and instant, and Code allows people to charge as little as 5¢ per transaction. The system leverages self-custodial blockchain technology and is built on Solana.
Existing payments apps are fragmented by use case and geography, and are subject to regulatory complexity that limits global functionality and leads to high fees.
We believe that Code has the opportunity to build a payments network that reaps the benefits of crypto—global by default, low fees, self custody, modular developer experience–while maintaining the benefits of traditional payment channels, such as privacy between parties and ease of use. We also think it has the team to execute.

Just published an article about how @GetCode will disrupt traditional monetization models on the internet and drive the value of $KIN with utility demand.

This is a good overview of where Code has been, where it’s going, and why we chose to build Code with Kin. Kin is fast, fully distributed, and fully decentralized. But most importantly Kin has a strong community of talented thinkers, builders, and writers. People like @KinShips.
@zosegal Show us some love and list Kin SPL. Its the currency for the open source @GetCode app & micropayments SDK. Its fully distributed with zero inflation. Its decentralized with no Foundation. First token to migrate to Solana from another chain. https://t.co/y63CvoQ9Zt
It took Kin just 18 weeks to get from current price to $0.00055 in 2021. Thats a 2500% gain. If it happens again, then $1000 today would be worth $27000 by April 2024. Will history repeat?
It's official. This formal corporate action follows the burning of the Kin Reserves in July 2023. $KIN is now fully decentralized and in the hands of its holders. We are all Kin.

As @cburniske put it well, price action is the ultimate content marketing. We are excited to see what might be possible with @getcode if we can get can get more and more people behind $Kin. We are all Kin.
You could add micropayments to your website in 20 seconds. Code makes it that simple for you as the developer, and offers your users a magical UX to use it, and even gives them their first dollar free. Check it out! https://t.co/edVd4HjBYh
The team put together a basic demo of the Code micropayments experience (link below)
We’d love to hear your feedback. And if you’re a web developer you can implement the same experience with just a few lines of code.

What was that, less than an hour to go from first hearing about the new Code SDK to posting a first live experience that integrates it? If you put the link live I’ll happily be one of your first customers! For everyone else please keep the feedback coming: https://t.co/v09YegBMk0
