Building.

@muneeb, @Stacks deserves a much bigger retail audience. Couple ideas to help more people use what you're building:

1. List Stacks on @RobinhoodApp (@JohannKerbrat @GThabot @allessandraxyz - what would it take to get this done?)

2. Bring STX stacking to Coinbase Earn: earn BTC or compound into STX. Coinbase Prime already lists Stacks staking. How can we bring that experience to retail? @maxbranzburg @royzhang90 @lewisjhan @ravirani @Jakepiscal @call_me_lukas

3. Bring Bitcoin bonds to @coinbase. Let BTC holders add the required STX, review the yield target and lockup, and enroll in the app they already use.

Goal is to make blockstack:native easy to discover, buy, and earn with. What's the biggest blocker to each?

i think the fastest way to become who you really want is to bite off more than u can chew and figure out how to chew it

[Sonny Lowry @sonny8s]

Seeing people dropping like flies. Settling, light gone behind the eyes, spark gone, mundane auto-pilot comfort seeking routines (with a good dose of escapism), dreams dead and passion gone. So sad. Need to Hold the line at ALL costs.

Failure is closer to success than thinking about success.

Terence McKenna predicts the future in 1998:

“I think it’s just going to get weirder and weirder and weirder.”

One of the greatest viruses of the modern man is looking at Instagram Stories. You will melt your brain looking at a barrage of outcomes—like vacations, parties, cars—with no visibility of the process that got them there.

Make every detail perfect and limit the number of details to perfect.

i hate how well asking myself "if i had 10x the agency i have what would i do" works

[alexei @alexeixbt]

your best ideas will never come from trying to have them. you must read more. do more. experience more. stack the inputs until your brain is overflowing with raw material. then do nothing. sit in silence. go for a walk. stare out a window. that's when your mind starts connecting dots you didn't know existed. the conversation from last week meets the book from last month meets the problem you've been chewing on for a year. until one random wednesday you look up and realize you found the answer you were looking for.

@mert the problem is, sending off exchange:

1. messes with people's cost basis
2. they can no longer just use 1 exchange for 1099, they need to find a crypto tax software/deal with api's
3. scares the shit out of them for IRS reasons

someone needs to create an EASY explainer for normies on how this all works / how to keep it legally sound

don't forget just how non-technical ppl are outside this side of the internet

Half of charisma is simply refusing to behave like you’re inconveniencing anyone.

@CristinCulver @WisprFlow @tankots There’s also nowhere in the UI that tells you what “Flow” is. I have absolutely no clue if that needs to be on or off, or what it’s functionality is.

[Mind Stretchr @mindstretchr]

@CristinCulver @WisprFlow @WisprFlow @tankots what even is the point of this? It never works, comes up at the most random times, and adds so much unnecessary friction to the UX.

@WisprFlow for iPhone is too atrocious for this - it's only bearable on laptop

by the time they get to the Wispr-specific keyboard --> hit "Start" --> it jumps from iMessage, to the Wispr app, back to iMessage --> asks you to "Swipe right across the bottom edge to continue"... these girls have already dropped everything in their hands.

@muneeb Have you considered releasing some of the institutions/partners that you are working with ahead of September?

We finally have momentum for the first time in years. Please don't let that fizzle out and die.

I’m actually pretty upset Apple allowed this. While the feature is cool, the technical functionality that enables it is not cool.

If I was Tim Apple, OAI would be temporarily banned from the App Store until this is reversed, and here’s why:

I use iMessage because it’s quantum encrypted, with server keys I can own. Local caches are on devices that are encrypted with my passwords, not apples keys.

This makes it and computationally and legally impossible for anyone else to access chat history but the people I trust and directly communicated with.

But *now* the copies of my messages from years ago on *anyones* laptop in what is *supposed* to be an encrypted-at-rest local cache only can now be fetched directly by chatgpt without my permission or even knowledge and stored and processed in plain text forever on openai / Microsoft servers unencrypted and requested by any government entity at a moments notice without my knowledge and openai/Microsoft legally have to provide that, in federally enforced total secrecy. And they’re never legally allowed to admit they do it.

AND because of default chatgpt settings most people haven’t bothered to turn off, all those private texts can now be used for training and will end up in the weights of future models, so all future AI models will permanently know all of our private lives as a part of the weights, immortalized forever as training checkpoints.

Total architecture abandonment and user trust betrayal on Apples part. This should be the most viral story of 2026 by 100x. The permanent end of private communication in the US.
