SITUATION EXPLAINED: Robinhood just launched agentic trading.
@ConejoCapital says it won't go mainstream until it gets its vibe coding moment.
Mauricio Trujillo Ramirez is founder of ClawPump, an agentic finance startup that crossed $70M+ in trading volume in under two months.
"The UX has to feel like the onset of vibe coding for agentic trading to truly pick up."
"In the same way everyone was building fitness apps at the onset of Claude Code, that is gonna create this genuine Cambrian boom of fintech vibe trading apps."
I don't use @Replit like a coding toy.
I use it like a product foundry.
In the last stretch, I've shipped 10 active products on it:
AI QA testing
startup news
teacher tools
real estate CRM
coloring pages
prompt library
founder chat
viral social app
agency site
personal site
Combined:
~785k lines of code
~2,000 API routes
60+ background jobs
100+ integrations
live production domains
Payments.
Auth.
AI pipelines.
Admin dashboards.
Webhooks.
Storage.
Email.
SEO engines.
Browser automation.
Chrome extensions.
This is the part people still miss about Replit:
It is not just "write code in a browser."
It is the closest thing I've found to turning product momentum into shipped software before the idea cools off.
@CynicalPublius It’s possible that Carter found his QBs support of this president already divisive and detrimental to team chemistry. It all cuts both ways. You just happen to align with one side so it’s easier for you to empathize with that side
@CynicalPublius This free country allows Carter to criticize whomever he wants and allows Jaxson Dart to take advantage of his opportunities. Both are exercising the freedoms that many died to protect.
Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.
Excited to share that I've joined Deloitte.
For the past 7.5 years, building Blocknative has been an unforgettable journey alongside a talented team and inside an ecosystem that never stops advancing the state of the art.
More on the Blocknative transition:
Ironically, you cannot use these AWS agents to buy anything from AWS because they don’t accept stablecoins as a form of payment.
So send your Gemini agent built on AWS to https://t.co/bMyDG6qCs5 to buy Google Cloud tools and APIs using stablecoins.
Kite Mainnet and Kite Passport are now live and compatible with @Google AP2.
Developers building on Kite can now use AP2 to enable AI agents to securely shop, negotiate, and make payments on behalf of users, without requiring human intervention for every transaction. The workflow is seamlessly integrated with Kite Passport, giving developers granular control and delegation capabilities over their agents, all powered by instant stablecoin payment rails on Kite Chain.
Really excited for this launch. I love the way the amazing Kite AI team is enabling the agentic economy with their Passport. It’s as simple as installing a skill. Check it out!
Kite Mainnet is now live.
This is not just another mainnet. It is the first blockchain built for agentic payments.
Designed for an agent-first internet, for builders, and for the future Agent Economy.
What makes Kite Mainnet different:
Built for builders and agents. Not chasing TVL. Not chasing the next DeFi cycle. Not competing for idle speculative capital.
Three layers, one platform:
• Settlement Layer: built for high-frequency, low-value, agent-driven stablecoin-native transactions.
• Kite Agent Passport: unifies identity, delegated authority, and programmable governance.
• Agent Interface & Experience: where agents and developers interact with the system through agent registration, agent harnesses, and service discovery.
A unified hub for all major payment protocol standards, including x402, Google AP2, and Stripe MPP.
