Our daughter chose @itskerrii for her Black History Month report this year. Then she closed out her track season with a PR in the 100m at the Junior Olympics, fueled by running on the same track her idol did.

Congrats, Sha’Carri, your journey and greatness are inspiring🥇🥉🥇

@alexisohanian I have a 12yo daughter who sprints/jumps, so look forward to this growing! A few quick thoughts…
- would pay for a one off 15sec “good luck on your big race” message
- want to see more details unique to each athlete’s content on the sub page
- create video library of past meets

Shoutout to @ImJustLaylay for the smaller @athlos bibs 🙌����

Maybe @alexisohanian can keep breaking the mold and @sevensevensix can sponsor her. Something tells me she would be a strong advisor to the consumer startups in the portfolio.

The first Athlos meet received near-universal acclaim from the 35 women who competed there. That tends to happen when you spend a ton on prize money and VIP treatment. But it's the fans that will determine the meet's long-term success.

@QuincyWilson5 I imagine Quincy inspired many young athletes to try the 400m next season.

Those kids after their first 400m…

@RaesTake @NightcapShow_ @ShannonSharpe @ochocinco @LylesNoah it was great to see @LylesNoah address the topics, but I think @Vernon400m stole the show!

@CoinbaseDuck @chintanturakhia @mykcryptodev @kate_rouch @CryptoStatuette @0xAneri I’m here for it, the simpler the better and the CTA just becomes “Pay with Coinbase”

Restaurants want lower fees. Consumers want lower prices. Both want frictionless experience.

If restaurants pass back some of the savings from no fees to consumers, interests align & it’s 🚀

[rob aka ron @RobAKARon]

@CoinbaseDuck @chintanturakhia @mykcryptodev @kate_rouch @CryptoStatuette @0xAneri I genuinely feel like I’m missing something obvious in that I haven’t seen a lot of others suggesting more straightforward options like ‘Coinbase Pay’ - consumers will just ‘get’ something like that…

@jessepollak Pay with Coinbase Wallet

It’s simple and direct for even a non-crypto consumer to get in 5sec because it’s parallel to existing payment options available, and takes advantage of Coinbase’s existing brand awareness and trust.

USDC/Onchain will each require additional education.

[rob aka ron @RobAKARon]

@jessepollak Coinbase Wallet | Crypto | Onchain
Apple Pay | Credit Card | Processors

Consumer: What’s Coinbase Wallet?

Employee: It’s like Apple Pay, but you can pay for your coffee with USDC, basically digital dollars. It’s super easy to use and it helps our coffee shop save money on fees!

Congrats @masai_russell 🥇This was such a powerful interview last year and to see the payoff at the Olympics is incredible. You’re an amazing role model for my daughter!

Tough conversation after not getting into the final, but you know what she is leaving here with a championship mindset.

@AshtonJEaton So what I hear you saying is there’s a Nike AI assistant coach on the roadmap?!

Count me and my daughter in as a beta testers whenever you’re ready and we’ll make the drive down from Seattle
