Tailwind classes mysteriously disappearing in your React UI? 👻
If you use custom design tokens, twMerge assumes they conflict with defaults and strips them out.
Don't ditch twMerge. Just override it with createTailwindMerge to teach it your custom tokens. 🛠️ #React#Nextjs
AI tools like Claude & Cursor are incredible for velocity. But here's the truth:
Without strict architecture (Next.js, TypeScript), AI just writes spaghetti code 10x faster.
Velocity requires senior judgment. Build the foundation first. 🏗️ #React
Finance is not built around wallets.
It is not built around bridges.
It is not built around token issuance.
It is built around credit.
That is the opportunity Cenote is creating on @CantonNetwork
Decentralization isn’t ideology. It’s a trait of a network that enshrines competition to create an equal playing field. AI plays an interesting role in our new world.
But first, it’s important to understand that there’s a difference between companies and networks.
- Companies exist for direction, asymmetric bets, and executive function.
- Networks exist to create open competition around clearly defined objectives with transparent incentives.
You can get it wrong both ways.
Force a network to behave like a company and you concentrate power.
Force a company to behave like a network and you get paralysis.
AI is a powerful new tool in this conversation. It lowers the cost of high-quality participation. It can help people process information, express preferences, and even act as representatives.
But AI doesn’t fix structural mistakes.
You still have to define what belongs inside a competitive system and what requires specific leadership.
In @Kintsu, we decentralized a specific, well-defined function: validator weight selection.
- Kintsu Representatives compete to curate the best validators.
- Validators compete to generate the most yield on @monad for the Kintsu network, compounded into the sMON LST
- KSU stakers allocate stake by choosing the best representatives.
APY becomes the scoreboard.
The objective is clear. The incentives are visible. The feedback loop is tight.
That’s structured competition.
An AI could absolutely sit in the representative seat. If it selects validators well, it attracts stake. If it underperforms, stake leaves. Human, machine, or somewhere in between, the mechanism enforces accountability.
Not everything should be decentralized.
Strategy, capital allocation, and product direction often require executive function.
But when the objective is well defined and incentive-aligned, decentralization scales better than central control.
In many ways, Kintsu is us disrupting ourselves. We could keep stake delegation centralized. That would be simpler. But we would rather own a smaller piece of a much larger, credibly neutral network than control something that becomes a risk to the chain at scale.
AI can complement representative democracy.
Structure determines whether competition strengthens a network or just automates its flaws.

Tonight feels like one of those special moments.
2 years ago we started building on this “Monad” thing. It may be obvious now, but it was a big risk going all in back then
Tomorrow lots of friends get airdrops and launch their businesses. Time to build out this network. All in.
sMON in lending protocols, where collateral keeps working.
When you deposit sMON as collateral, it continues earning staking rewards the entire time.
That means you can borrow against your position without giving up your yield.
